Bondage for beginners

After all the buzz Fifty Shades of Grey has created in the past years, we are pretty sure you know what bondage sex is by now, or at least have been made aware of it. If the thought of seeing your partner being tied and restrained (or vice-versa) excites you and you want to try it out, you can introduce soft bondage in your relationship. Soft bondage may make use of rope bondage and bondage harness that are used purely for simple sensual restraints for those who are only initially exploring the world of BDSM.

Bondage has its roots dating back to Ancient Japan. The Samurais, who served as law enforcer at that time, used rope-tying techniques to restrain criminals and those who were suspects to a crime. During those days, they weren’t only used for restraint, they were also used to serve punishment and torture. But the social elites of Japan during the year 1800s saw another good application for their sophisticated rope-tying Japanese bondage techniques—as a form of eroticism. This erotic practice quickly spread. Now, bondage has gotten a better reputation and people are more welcoming towards it.

You may think you are into soft bondage but you first need to check your and your partner’s idea of “soft”. What is soft to you may be hard for another. Once you agree on your parameters, you can then decide the material you want your bondage to be. For beginners, there are soft bondages that are made from satin. Or if you want to take it up a notch, there’s the standard leather. Just remember, the goal here is for you to find pleasure whether you’re the one submitting or you’re the one dominating.
