The Joy Of Bondage

Bondage is a central part to the BDSM lifestyle. To me, there is nothing that affirms the separation of powers than tying a sub/slave up. The basic foundation of the D/s and M/s way of life is the total exchange of power. Bondage allows each person to feel the full extent of their core being. Doms/Masters feel a greater degree of control while subs/slaves feel less empowered. It is a win/win situation.

Bondage is also one of the easiest ways to start experimenting with the BDSM lifestyle. The only thing needed is a nice piece of rope or a scarf. Tying a submissive one to the headboard or bedpost will get you going. I found this simple act reemphasizes the desires that BDSM offers me.

We see a variety of pics online depicting the way people engage in bondage play. It is important to remember these people mostly are professional. They have access to the best supplies and are well trained in knots and pressure points. I always emphasize the safety aspect of all we do. This is no more important that when engaging in bondage play. The body is a wonderful mechanism although there are many places where damage can be caused. The idea of tying up a body part until it is purple is best left to the experts. Cutting off circulation is a dangerous practice unless one is knowledgeable about what can be sustained. Remember, safety is at the core of all we do.

So the next time you want to liven things up, offer to tie up your partner (or have him/her tie you up). It is a fabulous and simple way to get into this lifestyle. Let me know what results you experienced.
