Bondage is one of the most famous and best known aspects of S&M and BDSM play, and not without reason. Being tied up is a glorious sensation for the right person, and the control inherent in being the person doing the tying can give a dominant partner a heady rush. Ball gags are also commonly used. Sometimes bondage is there primarily to enhance a roleplay scenario; sometimes it's almost an art form, especially when it comes to rope bondage. Other times it's just to make clear the dynamic and have some fun with each other. Whatever your reasons for indulging, make sure you're doing so safely. Learn some knots that don't tighten under pressure and always keep a pair of shears to hand in case you need to release your partner in a hurry.
Most people focus on wrist cuffs, ankle cuffs and collars for enhancing their bondage skills, but bondage belts - like thigh cuffs - can add a few extra possibilities. This is especially true for people who are into suspension bondage, as the waist makes a great extra source of support for someone you're rigging up - but it's absolutely vital to follow proper safety protocol and play with a safeword! If suspension isn't your thing, of course, bondage belts are still useful - combined with rope, cuffs and ties, they can help make almost any kind of bondage feel more restrictive and complete. Try one out as part of the bondage you're already used to and see the difference it makes!
