Bondage In A Blizzard

This is fantasy art in the purest sense, considering that actually tying your naked captives out in the howling snow is pretty hard on ’em. But she does make a pretty picture:

The Purpose Of Bondage

Bondage as art? A tied woman as a pretty erotic sight?

Or functional bondage? A woman tied to put her, and keep her, right where you want her, in the position you want her in, helpless to prevent whatever you want to do to and with her?

The Bondage Blog motto was carefully chosen to suggest both: “Taking pleasure in the beauty of restrained women” can mean “by looking at them” or it can mean something rather less passive.

Carrie Ann at A View From The Floor has this to say:

I can’t seem to get into the whole “let’s tie some pretty ropes around you, it’ll take three hours to get a lot of pretty knots and a great design and then we’re done” thing. But lately I’ve been thinking a lot about another kind of bondage.

The kind of bondage where you’re tied down and cut off from movement or escape.

The type of bondage where you’re you’re leashed or tied off or caged because he doesn’t want you to move, because that’s the spot he wants you in.

I don’t want pretty rope dresses or fancy knot work.

I want a collar and leash that only lets me go so far.

I want a spreader bar that forces my legs to stay open no matter what he does.

I want cuffs that keep my hands out of his way.

I want rope and chain that immobilize me or simply keep me where I”m supposed to be.

My own view is that we like “bondage-as-art” precisely because it suggests the functional side. But of course, the world is full of kinky people who aren’t quite willing to “own” their own kinks. “I like bondage, but it’s just an aesthetic appreciation, I’m not one of those serious perverts who wants to tie up girls so he can fuck them like that….”

Sure. Yeah, right. Whatever.

Slavegirl In Box

Girls in boxes are always cute:

But what they did once they had her in the box? Heavy. I mean, usually the holes are to let air in, not to let water out….

What’s The Chain For?

What do you do when the kid spots the bondage gear? I like Kaya’s approach — say something lame and then rely heavily on the fact that they don’t really want to hear about it:

Not so long ago, a week or so, I carelessly left the chain on the bed stretched out across the bed (and not tucked out of sight behind the headboard). She saw it when she chased her cat into our room. Of course she asked me what it was there for, and I said the very first lame thing that entered my brain.

Am: “What’s that for?”
Me: “Um, um, it… was.. it.. it used to hold the bed together?”
Am: “Uhhh. Or, do you mean it holds YOU to the bed?”
Me: “Yes. Because I would totally run away without it.” (eyeroll and everything. God I tried.)
Am: (plugging her ears and running from the room) “kinky sex! kinky sex! I can’t hear you! I can’t hear you!”

Beating Over A Barrel

This has got to be where the old phrase “over a barrel” (as a metaphor for being helpless and in trouble) comes from:

Gagged Pain Toy

Gagged bondage models are not hard to find. But gagged bondage models who have red and puffy eyes from crying? That’s a little more rare:

The model is Felix, and she’s been crying because of the serious whipping she got at Pain Toy.

Strung Up For A Slave Whipping

Despite its aged appearance, this photo is actually is a movie still from the 1993 movie “Sankofa“, in which “a self-absorbed black American fashion model on a photo shoot in Africa is spiritually transported back to a plantation in the West Indies where she experiences first-hand the physical and psychic horrors of chattel slavery”:
