In
sex, men and women had been very creative when it comes to celebrating the
primary urges. Through the years, aside from the proliferation of toys and sex
gadgets to help consummate the sexual act, there developed a certain sexual
ritual now known simply as bondage Australia.
Basically,
this is a type of erotic play enjoyed by both partners during sex and the
simple exercise of restraining someone (either partner) during the act.
Typically, one is on top and the other is at the bottom. Here, consent is very
important where both partners agree to playing certain roles.
Role power
In
movies and other entertainment media, women are often depicted playing the role
of the bottom. In reality, to make things more exciting, both partners always
have the option of switching roles.
The
appeal of this role playing during sexual intercourse has been attributed to
people playing control and power to either partner. Someone bound and
blindfolded gets so excited on the many prospects that the other partner will
do during the act.
The
practice is actually based on the many fantasies of the partners over and above
the simple sexual act. There are physical sensations at play, even some pain,
which can either be cathartic or sexually pleasurable to both.
Gadgets and equipments
From
the name themselves, a beginner would know what they are meant for when used
during the act. Some of the common items include leather and fabric cuffs,
shackles and chains, handcuffs, ankle spreaders, ropes, nipple and clit clamps,
cages, and suspension devices like slings and swings.
There
are other equipments and devices that go with the practice. There are now many
pieces of furniture in use for these.
These
pieces of sex furniture act as aids to the sexual activity. Aside from the
typical bed, there are specially made couches and sofas that elevate or focus
the genital areas.
The
others include devices for spanking (Berkley horse) sex swings, sex gliders,
angled foam wedges and pillows, and the famous love chair (no longer available
from makers). Saw horses like those used in carpentry are sat on to get the
feeling of a crotch rope in bondage.
Light versions
Things
like a bondage tape and furry cuffs are good starting points, especially for
beginners. There are also mouth gags that can prevent one partner from
speaking. There are many ways where partners overwhelm the other’s senses
(smell, touch, etc.)
Hoods
add anticipation in the bedroom when a partner is blindfolded. There is also
what they consider as mental bondage. Instead of physically restraining the
other, you require your partner to stay in position by sheer will power.
Safety
Responsible
practitioners place great importance when it comes to safety, which can be lost
during extreme moments of pleasure. Those using gags have developed the
communications (certain words or action) where one partner can tell the other
to stop or slow down.
Bondage,
as a sexual alternative is definitely exciting and brings in double the
pleasure to people who want more out of their usual sexual practices.
