What is Bondage?

Most people have heard of bondage but not everyone knows what it actually is. Bondage (the B in BDSM) is the process of consensually tying, restraining, or binding a partner for erotic stimulation. It sounds simple because it is - not every aspect of BDSM involves gimp suits, ball gags and whips!

Of course, many people like to incorporate other aspects of BDSM into their bondage play. It could be getting spanked or humiliated when restrained, becoming submissive to a dominate partner while tied up, or dressing up in BDSM gear before being bound.

You don’t need to use all aspects at once - even just being tied to the headboard or using handcuffs counts as a form of bondage! Regardless of what you are look for from a bondage experience, result assured that you will find exactly what you need here at our BDSM shop. 

Bondage Ideas

Before you start buying all the bondage sex toys you want to try, it does help to go into things with some idea of what you want from the entire experience.

For instance, do you get turned on by the thought of being dominated while you are restrained? Maybe you want to do the dominating yourself? Is there an excitement from being physically tied up without a way of escaping? Area you unsure of what you find so arousing about bondage?

By asking yourself these questions you will get a better idea of what types of BDSM gear and bondage sex toys are worth buying. Of course, you may not know initially and want to go in blind, which is fine too!

Regardless, we recommend starting off slow with a partner you trust. Be completely open about your desires and limitations and be clear about what roles you want to explore. Once you are ready to dive on in, check out our blog post for some great bondage ideas!
