Bondage Gear & Fetish Toys

What is BDSM?

BDSM is an umbrella term that refers to a spectrum of sexual behaviors and preferences that can be divvied up into the groups of bondage and discipline, domination and submission, sadism and masochism.

Practicing BDSM is about a lot more than the act of having sex. In fact, “a scene” may not involve sex or, even touching, at all. You’ll find that many of the common themes – the mental connotations of some acts are more of a turn-on than the prelude of a particular act leading to sex.

If you’re thinking that sounds intense, don’t worry! It’s completely up to you how deep you want to get and how far you want to go with something. In BDSM, enthusiastic consent is paramount: you and only you decide how you want things to go.

Safety Advice and Special Considerations

The most important part of BDSM sex is the act of consent. Partners should always make sure everyone gives enthusiastic consent and outlines clear boundaries. These boundaries can be laid out in a formal contract, a verbal agreement, or a more casual conversation about desires and limits.

Due to the intense nature of some BDSM scenes, it is also important to introduce a safe word. If one partner becomes uncomfortable with any part of the experience, they can speak the word to stop the current act — or stop the sex altogether.

Types of Bondage Gear and Fetish Toys

There are many exciting Bondage Gear and Fetish Toys to choose from. These are just some of the most popular types of BDSM toys

Bondage Rope

Bondage ropes are the most basic form of restrains, and they do an excellent job of tying back subs.

Gags

Gags play a significant role in getting both the dominant and submissive partner into the mood. They are mostly used to silence or muffle any sound/begging that a sub may try to air.

Floggers

Floggers charm a lot of people’s hearts because of their versatility. For instance, you can use a multiple-strand leather flogger for whipping and also as a sensual tease.

Paddles

They serve almost the same function as floggers but have a different form. Unlike a flogger’s strands, paddles have a flat and broad body that evenly distributes impact.

Blindfolds and Hoods

Blindfolds and hoods are a great way to add kink to your BDSM play. They work by causing voluntary sensory deprivation of one or few senses.

Cuffs And Straps

Cuffs and straps are the most common bondage and restraint toys. I bet either you or at least someone you know owns a pair of these. Cuffs and straps are handy in tying a sub on a bed’s corner-posts. It makes them vulnerable and leaves them at the mercy of the dominant.

Have fun

When it comes to BDSM toys, start where you’re comfortable. If a sex swing and bed restraints are too intense, begin with a spanking paddle and leather collar. The whole point here is to tap into a higher level of pleasure for both you and your partner. Once you begin experimenting, you can start dabbling in more BDSM play.
