Light Bondage: How Light Bondage Can Greatly Enhance Sex

What is Light Bondage?

Whenever anyone talks about bondage, referring to the fifty shades franchise is a must. While it might have seemed kinky to a lot of people, it isn’t something that most of us will try at home. The concept of bondage is enticing, and many people out there want to use it to spice up their sex life. The problem, however, is that we don’t want to go all “Christian Grey” on our partners; you wouldn’t want to scare them off now, would you? So, if you’re a beginner looking to try something different in bed or just experiment to see if BDSM is your thing, the best way to go about is light bondage.

Light bondage is a practice of restricting certain pleasure responses in order to enhance pleasure. While some people are into it, others often wonder how bondage works. Well, wonder no more I have got you covered. Read ahead and you’ll get all the information that you need.

How Light Bondage can Greatly Enhance Sex?

So, light bondage is basically restricting certain pleasure principles until you can’t take it anymore. This leads to intense pleasure and better orgasms or release. If the concept is hard for you to grasp, let me break it down for you. Imagine that you’ve been craving hot wings for a day and you go out and have it, it will be satisfying but only up to a certain degree. Now, imagine if you’ve been craving it for quite some time and you restrict yourself from eating it. Once you do get a chance to have them, you will savor the moment, and the hot wings will be twice as good and memorable.

Light bondage works the same way, for example, we as people love to use the sense of touch. Especially when it comes to sex. Sex is all about the touches! When we’re turned on, touching the other person feeling them becomes a throbbing want but if we’re a stripped of that sensory pleasure, it is going to cause a kind of pain that hurts so GOOD. Ever heard of the saying that goes, we only realize the worth of something once it's gone? Light bondage works the same way - it strips certain sensory pleasures and heightens others.

10 Light Bondage Sex Toys to Get you Well Equip

1. Blind folds

If you’re a beginner and you want to start with something light, get your hands on piece of clothing to use as a blindfold. Even better if it’s silk. Tie it around your partner’s eyes and enjoy their body shivering just to get a sight of you. The fact that they won’t be able to see will heighten their sense of touch, smell, and sound. This will lead to heightened anticipation of your movement and lead to a better sexual experience all over.

2. Collars

The most frequently asked question about collars and sex has to be that why would someone even agree to put on a collar? What could it possibly bring to the bedroom? Well, the answer to that is a little complicated. In our everyday lives, we often have to be in control, and that can be stressful for some people. Now and then, we wish that someone else could be in control so we can breathe a little and not have all that responsibility on our shoulders. This is why collars are a great way beginners can exercise this shift in power and see the effects it has on their love life. One thing you need to make sure is that the collar shouldn’t be too tight, and you should have safe words prepared just in case. Other than that collars are a great way to bring kink into your life.

3. Handcuffs

Another thing that can help get into light bondage is handcuffs. You can use them to tie someone's hands or their ankles. Handcuffs for bondage are often soft on the inside, so they don’t cut into your skin. Apart from that, it also has hooks so that you can tie it to the bedposts or both their ankles together. The restricted movement will make them hornier, and you’ll surely enjoy watching it.  

4. Chastity case

Another thing that is used for light bondage is a chastity case. It is designed for both men and women. It can be used to stimulate your partner and try new ways to reach orgasms without penetration. If you’re up for a challenge and you love foreplay, this will surely dial-up things in the bedroom.  While it may seem like something hard and that can potentially hurt you, it is not the case. It’s made of silicon and can enhance your pleasure tenfold.

5. Gag ball

A gag ball is another way to restrict your partner’s way of expressing. Once that happens, they’ll have to either use their body or make guttural sounds, and that can be a massive turn on. It can also take care of unnecessary talking during sex; I had a partner that used to narrate everything; trust me, using a gag was the best decision that I ever made.

6. Nipple clamps

Another thing that you can use is nipple clamps. While it may seem like something that will hurt a lot, it doesn’t. If it is placed at the right time, it can increase your pleasure a great deal.  Always be very attentive to the safe word. They should feel safe as it is the basis of BDSM. They should be able to trust you.

7. Ticklers

One thing that we saw in fifty shades of grey was spanking with a paddle. Now, you need to keep in mind is that spanking is a very advanced level of BDSM. No one will want to go from vanilla to getting spanked with a paddle in just the first try. Rather than using a paddle, you should try to surprise your partner with a tickler. Once the blindfolds are on, and you use the tickler, you’re going to hear sounds of pleasure you never heard before.

8. Flogger

Another thing that you can use is a flogger. With a flogger, you need to be very careful and control the way that you use it. Don’t let the feeling of power overcome your senses. Set a strict set of rules that need to be followed. One of the best tips here is to build a BDSM relationship with trust.

9. Pleasure tape

When it comes to bondage, it is all about the feeling.  The feeling of silk cloth is different than that of a handcuff and similarly, it is different for a pleasure tape.  If you’re into role play and want to play out a kidnapping scenario, a pleasure tape is the type of restraint that you’re looking for.

10. Doggy strap

A doggy strap is a BDSM essential. Once you’ve got your partner tied up, you’re going to need extra leverage to carry out your hearts will. That is where a doggy strap comes in. It will help you adjust the position of your partner more easily. You wouldn’t want to have your partner all tied up while you stumble around just because you can’t get them in a position that works for you now.

How to Set Up The Atmosphere for Light Bondage

If you’re trying out the light bondage, the chances are that you are a beginner dipping their toes into the ocean of BDSM. Keep in mind that you should try not to go too far. Just because its BDSM doesn’t mean you need to have a “red room” like Christian grey. You should talk to your partner, discuss different fantasies and kinks that you might have, and take it to step by step. As far as the atmosphere is concerned, play a song that helps you express yourself sexually, dim the light a little, and if you have children - send them away so you can have fun without any worries lurking at the back of your mind.
