SheLovesHer Bondage Toys & Gear
Bondage toys and gear covers the entire range from light to heavy bondage, ranging from under five dollars to a few thousand dollars. Bondage gear is designed to restrict a person’s freedom as part of sex play. Bondage gear ranges from mild items to extreme. The standard kinds of bondage gear include restraints, ropes, chains, cages, hand cuffs, wrist cuffs, ankle cuffs, thigh cuffs, waist belts, breast harnesses, chastities, gags, blindfolds, helmets, and full body devices. Closely related are discipline devices such as whips and paddles. Serious bondage fans often have elaborate custom made costumes, toys, gear, and furniture. Bondage gear can be made from a variety of materials, including cloth, velcro, rope, leather, wood, or metal. Interact with BondAgeGRRLZ
The person performing the bondage is called the dominant or dom. If the dominant is a woman, then she might be called a femme dom, dominatrix, or mistress. If the dominant is a man, then he might be called master. The person upon whom the bondage is performed is called a submissive, sub, or slave. A person who does both is called a switch. S&M stands for sadism and masochism (sometimes called sado-masochism). B&D stands for bondage and discipline. There are a variety of specialty versions of bondage play. One common form is maid bondage, in which the submissive dresses up in a French maid’s costume. Another common form is harem bondage, in which the submissive dresses up in a harem costume, a belly dancer costume, or other similar costume. Pony girl play is when the submissive pretends to be a horse (this often includes a bit and bridle, sometimes a saddle, and sometimes even a pony tail butt plug). Rape play is simulated rape. Bondage is sometimes combined with cross dressing.
bondage safetyBefore using bondage toys, you should be familiar with bondage safety. People can and have died from bondage that went wrong. There are several excellent books that discuss bondage safety for beginners. It is strongly recommended that you read one before trying out bondage on your own. A few safety pointers (and this is not a substitute for learning bondage safety): Be careful about tight restrictions. If you cut off the blood supply to a body part, you can cause permanent damage, including loss of a body part or even death. Be especially careful about any bondage around the neck, which can cut off blood or air supply. If you lose feeling or feel a tingling sensation, the bondage is too tight and should be released immediately. If you choke or have difficulty breathing, the bondage is too tight and should be released immediately. Do not block the breathing passages. Never leave a person unattended in bondage. Keep all necessary keys handy and ready in case you have to unlock a person in a hurry. It is wise to have some kind of identification to help match keys to locks. This can be a colored bit of tape, a bit of colored paint or ink, or any other marking that clearly indicates which key goes with which lock. It is possible to get a set of locks that all use the same key, which can make emergency unlocking much easier.
Check all locks to make sure that they smoothly lock and unlock before each use. Check all gear to make sure it is in proper working condition before each use. In light bondage, a person is lightly restrained. This can include such things as tying a person up with silk or ropes or a simple blindfold. In light bondage, the person in bondage can normally escape from the bondage on their own. The purpose of light bondage is to give the sensation of giving up control.Have some method of indicating that a person needs to be unlocked or that their limits are being violated. When bondage play includes simulated rape or force, words such as “no” and “stop” might be interpretted as part of play. A common method is to have a “code word” that indicates the need to stop play. One problem with code words is that a person can easily forget the proper code word in a moment of stress. One possible solution is the old children’s method of calling out “for real” or “I mean it”, either of which is easy to remember and unlikely to be used as part of play. If your bondage play includes gags, it may not be possible to speak a code word clearly. In this case, a simple tune might be hummed. To avoid trouble because someone can’t remember the correct tune, any humming might be used as your code word. Discuss your limits before you start play. All participants should be clear on what is allowable play and what isn’t. A person’s limits should never be violated. If you are uncertain as to how far you are willing to go, you can agree upon a method for communicating how you feel when you reach the critical point. Pain can be an important part of play for some people and can be completely unacceptable for others. Pain is your body’s way to tell you that something is wrong. Any time you experience unexpected pain, stop play immediately. If you are going to include pain in your play (especially spanking, paddling, or whipping), you should understand the dangers involved and know the limits of what you can really handle. Bleeding is never a good sign. If blood letting is part of your play you should be experienced enough to know how to do this safely. Bleeding from the anus or vagina or penis is a sign of a serious injury and requires immediate medical attention. Stop play immediately and go directly to an emergency room or trauma center. Dizziness, unconsciousness, and choking are not good signs. If dizziness or choking is experienced, stop play immediately. Place the head lower than the heart (such as laying down with the legs elevated). If dizziness or choking persists after play stops, seek immediate medical attention. If a person loses consciousness, seek immediate medical attention (even if the person recovers consciousness). Please learn more about bondage safety before actually engaging in bondage. masks and blindfoldsMasks and blindfolds are used to block a person’s vision. This can be done by itself (for light bondage) or in combination with other forms of bondage. A blindfold covers just the eyes, while a mask covers more of the head or face. Inexpensive blindfolds often have light leaks at the edges, which might allow a person to partially see around. More expensive blindfolds and masks completely block any vision. You can use a piece of cloth (such as a rolled up scarf or a necktie), but these almost always allow some peripheral vision. blindfolds:

gagsGags are used to muffle speech. No gag completely blocks the ability to make sound. A simple gag is made by tying a scarf around the head so that it is partly inside the mouth. Do not stuff cloth into the mouth, because the cloth will expand with saliva and can choke a person to death. The most common gags are ball gags, which have a rubber ball on a leather strap or metal chain. If there is paint on the ball gag, make sure that it is not flaking or loose. There are gags that have a horse’s bit. These can be used for pony girl play or as a gag that allows a person to bite down hard (a bit gag might be used in combination with spanking, paddling, or whipping). There are gags that include a penis head, usually made of leather. Most gags have a single chain or leather strap that fastens at the back of the head. There are gags that are designed to be locked into place, as well as gags with mutliple straps. Some masks have built in gags. Make sure that the gag used does not completely fill up the mouth, as this is a choking hazard. A gag will cause saliva to flow. Make sure that the person can either swallow the saliva or that the saliva can freely flow down the face. Otherwise, the person might choke on their own saliva. Ball gags:  collarsCollars are normally used in association with other forms of bondage. Collars are available in leather and in metal. Make sure that the collar does not choke off a person’s blood or air supply (either from being too tight or from being too big). Make sure that the collar can’t tighten on its own. Collars are available in both locking and non-locking forms. A “posture collar” is a collar that is extra tall in the back and holds the head in a single position. Many collars have rings that can be used to tie or lock items to. This can include such variations as chaining a person’s wrists near his or her head or for fastening a leash. Collars:
leashes Leashes: cuffsCuffs come in many varieties. Thumbcuffs are small devices that only restrain the thumbs. These are usually rather cheap devices and may not work properly. Thumb cuffs: The best known cuffs are metal handcuffs. There are cheap plastic handcuffs that give the illusion of bondage but that can easily be released by the person in bondage. Cheap handcuffs don’t have any method for preventing additional tightening and can easily become tight enough to cut off the blood supply and introduce a risk of injury. Also, cheap handcuffs can often be forced open without a key. More expensive handcuffs can only be opened with a key and can be adjusted to a specific tightness. Even when properly adjusted, handcuffs can become uncomfortable, chafe or cut the wrists, and are therefore not suitable for lengthy bondage. There are padded handcuffs for longer play, as well as pads that can be used with any handcuffs. Interactive Bondage

In heavy bondage, a person is more seriously restrained. This can include ropes, chains, cuffs, leather, and all kinds of specialty gear. In heavy bondage, the person in bondage cannot normally escape on his or her own.
