WHIPS
You should choose your whipping paraphernalia with care. Each item affects the skin differently. Flogging,which manifested as Whipping, Caning or Spanking. Of all flogging equipment this is the easiest to use. It is so basic. Almost everyone has endured a spanking at one time or another. It is an excellent way to break in the uninitiated, as there are no threatening tools to use.
Rubber Whips- You should be careful using these as they can cut if used roughly. Proceed with care, they
can produce cuts, and cuts equal blood = DANGER. Take care both in use and in cleaning after wards.
Horse-Whips- My favourites are the short riding crops. Tack stores are a good outlet, but choose the
material carefully. The harder the material the more damage you will do. The bull whip is the ultimate
flogging tool, but it does not take long to make mincemeat out of a bare back. When buying these items
take care to avoid whips with knots at the end, or hard leather.
Whipping Techniques
Have the submissive fully secured for a whipping scene. There are times when no bonds are
necessary such as spanking scenes or caning scenes. Blows to the kidney
may cause bruising or permanent injury and MUST BE AVOIDED. Joints are another area to avoid, this
could cause ligament or joint problems. Despite warnings on this you may elect to produce sensations on
the backs of knees, elbows etc.
Never hit the back of the neck, as such blows could cause spinal damage. The head is off limits also - we
know as children that a light blow to the temples could cause immediate death, however face slapping is
OK.
The scrotal sac is a popular place to strike. All men fear loss of their manhood, and strikes to this area
produce psychological fear in addition to pain. Should you wish to bring pain to this area, use a ball
stretcher, and weights. Never strike the penis hard or with a solid instrument. Instead use leather or another
soft penis implements
.
Spanking
Spanking is something that can be done in public or private. A severe spanking is considered a childish
correction, and therefore shaming. It is suitable for all age groups.
Usually the punishing device is the governesses open palm, and for this I like to administer brisk,
spankings. The next spank arrives before my culprit has time to absorb it, and this helps to promote a rapid
loss of self-control and so the weeping state that usually signals the end of the punishment.
The 5 recognized postures for spanking are:-
Across my knees,
Between my thighs,
Across a single elevated thigh,
Tucked under the arm,
Between the legs,
Spanking Implements
Traditional items such as a leather or wooden slipper, are always more severe than with the hand. The
impact of a well-handled slipper is impressive. A school ruler, or the flat wooden back of a hairbrush are all
items that I use to punish naughty naked buttocks. Please note that hairbrushes are more apt to bruise
more easily than any other item, and two dozen is the most I'd ever lay on with the back of a hairbrush.
Tawses and paddles are really much more suitable for the severer kinds of spanking. And though it is usually done otherwise, they may also be administered in the classic posture. The Taws have a long and
distinguished history, are made from various materials and are 'smacking' instruments. isn't in any distress, then you have been much to mild.
A tapette or paddle as they are known in the United States, is one of the severest instruments used for smacking. A ping pong paddle works just as well also. The sound of the paddle's impact is the most tremendous 'whack', and it normally leaves no bruises when used correctly.
Birching & Caning
The birch was used prior to the cane. It consisted of many switches all bundled together. A switch
is a single tree branch cut to 3 foot lengths, and fairly thin. Usually twigs, leaves etc., are broken off, I usually peel the switch - this gives it more of a snap
The cane is a highly penetrating item, and care must be taken when administering it - so much is obvious. The arm and wrist movement is a complex one, and the achievement of a good caning action is therefore a matter of some diligence and constant practice. Be careful as the cane can cut, and scar, and that is simple brutality.
GAGS
Gags are used to render people speechless, which has a great psychological impact. Some bottoms
prefer gags because they muffle their screams of ecstasy. Those who use gags have an alternate signal to
replace the safeword.
We have many types of gags that we use, they include bridles, ball gags, muzzles, penis gags, electrical
tape, panties, dildos, and bar gags.
Unless it renders the jaw inactive, gags such as electrical tape are typically ineffective.
Ball gags are effective and safe as long as they are anchored or strung onto a strap that is wide enough to
be comfortable.
Penis or dildo gags are available with the penis mounted on the inside of the mouth, the outside, or both.
Penis gags are used for humiliation, sex, punishment and teasing. We strap on the sub the gag with the
dildo that protrudes outward and then we can mount it if desired. Head harnesses with a high heel shoe
attached to the front so that the toe penetrates the mouth (or other areas) is a great one for us to wear.
Muzzles or head harnesses are used by many including us, because they are comfortable, generally anchor
the jaw, and do a good job of muffling any sound. The sub can still speak, although not very well.
Harnesses
Body harnesses are used for decorative attire, suspension, and to anchor onto other restraints. Decorative
harnesses are made of rope in bondage scenes and of leather for costumes.
Harnesses used most for suspension are parachute harnesses which are available at most Army Navy Surplus stores - these are much better for the couple of who occasionally play, and are a lot cheaper than the leather ones.
Mummification or Cocooning
About the most complete form of bondage is to wrap someone up so they are completely immobile. The
most popular way to mummify someone is with plastic wrap. A common technique is to wrap each limb
separately, then wrap the arms to the sides, and then wrap the legs together-and then help your submissive
lie down on an adjacent soft surface.
You can then cut holes (carefully!) to access any especially sensitive areas, or wrap duct tape over it all for extra security, or add gags, blindfolds, etc. One way the body releases heat is by sweating, and while mummified you can sweat too much, so make sure your sub doesn't overheat-and have a blanket ready to cover them with when you cut them out of their cocoon, using the bandage scissors (obtainable from medical supply stores-one flat blade makes cutting easier) which
you of course have ready to hand. And as always, monitor your submissive very carefully; they are helpless, and your neglect or inattention could spell disaster.
Hoods
Many leather stores and artisans make bondage hoods. They are sometimes called discipline helmets . These are typically constricted of leather or rubber.
Some have simple zippers, and you zip them up to secure them. Others have laces on the back and/ or the sides, to enable the hood to be laced more tightly, for greater bondage effect.
Some hoods have eye holes, some don't. Some hoods have mouth holes, some don't. Some deluxe hoods have built-in earmuffs or even space for earphones, for sensory deprivation. Almost all hoods have nose holes, for obvious reasons. Hoods can restrict a bottom's breathing quite seriously, and tops must remain continually aware of their bottom's condition while their bottom is wearing a hood-especially if the hood is combined with any form of gag. Do not leave a hooded bottom alone; breathing difficulty can come on quickly.
Some people believe that any hood without a zipper or other extra-quick-release mechanism is too dangerous to use on a bottom. In any case, you should have some bandage scissors at the ready if the hood needs to be removed in a big hurry.
A hood is a very powerful device. It strongly increases your sense of helplessness, confinement, and makes
everything that much more intense. They are usually considered advanced pieces of equipment, with strong
implications for psychology and technique.
Body bags
If you like being bound, the ultimate extreme is bondage which encompasses your entire body, leaving you
with no motion whatever. Bondage Body bags (or "sleep sacks") resemble a well-tailored, snug sleeping
bag, often made out of leather or spandex. Spandex Body bags are the least expensive, and if made from
heavy enough spandex can be very restrictive indeed. Often Body bags have an opening at the upper end,
through which you slide your feet, pulling the bag up to your neck. Many have other openings for genitals or
nipples, so your slave can be pleasured or tortured while immobile.
Leather Body bags can be arbitrarily complex (and expensive); some have built-in internal arm sleeves to
further minimize motion, or suspension straps so the bag, bottom and all, can be lifted into the air. Some
have laces around the outside so the bag can be cinched to a downright painful tightness. If you REALLY
have money to burn, you can even get inflatable rubber Body bags-get in it and pump it up, and float away!
Caveats about breathing and quick-release apply here as well.
Arm binders
Restraints, typically leather, that bind both arms behind the back. Some resemble large gloves that pull up
over both arms and buckle around the shoulders.
Others are straps that go down the middle of the back and have attached wrist cuffs. Leather restraints are usually expensive, and another disadvantage is that they are not as adjustable as rope or handcuffs. Most cuffs make you choose between one-half inch intervals, as with an ordinary belt. Things that I like to do with special slaves of mine, is get them their own cuffs custom made, with their initials engraved into them, or the leather dyed their favourite colour. In general, there are lots of kinds of bondage gear, and you can even invent your own....
CBT
Cock and Ball Torture
Stands for Cock & Ball Torture. "Genitorture" stands for "genital torture". This is a subject that makes some men clutch their nuts and run in fear, and makes other men instantly erect and greedy for more. The male genitals are at once the most vulnerable and most sensitive part of the male body, so of course many dommes, enjoy playing with them.
Cock rings are rings that go around your cock, typically around the base of it, behind the balls. The penis
becomes erect when the blood vessels at its base constrict (because of arousal), trapping blood in the
cock and causing it to swell. Cock rings can also prolong an erection in most men that use them. (They also
constrict the urethra, which will make any orgasm more painful, or even cause ejaculate to back up into the
bladder. However, this is not dangerous unless done repeatedly. Experiment to find out how much tightness
is too much.)
Most are made of leather, with adjustable snaps, so you can tighten or loosen them to fit (as well as remove
them easily). Some are made of rubber. Some are even made of metal, but metal ones can be hazardous;
if you put a too-small one on your non-erect cock, your cock may become so erect that you can no longer
remove it--and if it is too tight, it will prevent your cock from softening. This may involve a trip to the
emergency room and the use of bolt cutters. No joke. However *most* professional dommes will know what
size will fit, by looking at a semi erect penis, and I myself actually prefer the metal ones! When using metal
ones, please make sure that you have plenty of lubrication on the shaft of your cock, so that when it's
coming off, it tends to slide off easier.
Some cock rings have multiple rings, for behind the balls, around the balls themselves, and around the base
of the shaft. Some people like using lots of cock rings, to stretch the balls out away from the body, or just to
create different sensations of bondage.
Safety tips: The broadest guideline is to go slowly until you know how much you can take. If the pain from a
particular activity starts to spread into other areas of the body, or if the pain lasts for a long time after the
stimulation ends, you have probably gone beyond your limits. You won't reach this point generally if you take
your time. As with any SM practice, if you find yourself in pain later, or if you notice any abnormalities in your
cock or balls when flaccid or erect, see a doctor. Of course, avoid any practice that seriously wrenches or
twists the genitals; there are many ligaments and blood vessels in there, damage to which may make it
hard for you to get hard at other times.... However, the cock and balls can handle light whipping or slapping,
provided it is done with care and by someone who knows where to whip, and where not to.....
Cock and ball bondage can also be done with leather strips, ribbons, velvet cords, etc. Be as ornamental
as you please; tying up an erect cock can create a luscious work of art, and teasing it can be even more
artistic.
Don't expect C&B bondage to keep a cock hard indefinitely; cocks will usually get soft if not stimulated, and
bondage which will keep it hard may be dangerously tight. In any event, be sure you can remove your
bondage quickly, as always.
Dominant Women tend to exert control over their male slaves. One common control exercised is the control
of male sexuality. There are several ways this can be accomplished.
The first is to prohibit the slave any form of sexual expression including masturbation. Along with the
prohibition comes a punishment for the crime of sexual expression. The crime should be known to the slave
for greater certainty in the Mistress / slave relationship.
Another way to control male sexuality is by means of genital restraints. These are various in nature, but
generally stop the male's ability to attain erections. Often there is built into the restraint a mechanism to
produce pain if the male organ should attempt to erect. This mechanism may include pins or needles which
push into the male's genitalia upon the slightest sign of erection.
Most males and Dominant Females use genital torture to accomplish their goals. Genital torture involves
the torture of male genitalia by usually the Dominant Female. Again this is done with the consent of the male
involved. Genital torture involves the striking of the genitalia with a small cane or whip, electro shock to the
genitals.
A great deal can also be done with female genitalia. Some women love having clothespins on their pussy
lips; some love light whipping on their outer labia, or even their clitoris. Sometimes body piercings can be
used for bondage; labia piercings can hold a pussy open very delightfully, or clit hood piercings can be tied
up out of the way with thread, leaving the clit naked and exposed. Some women like soft fur on their pussy;
others like to be alternately soothed and tormented until they can stand no more.
Again, go slowly. DO NOT blow into the vagina, whatever else you do. Don't leave clamps on very long until
you know how much your partner enjoys (and how it will feel to her the next day when the scene is over). Too
much of one kind of sensation can become irritating quickly; change the stimulation, keep your bottom
aroused and surprised. There are all sorts of things that can be used on female genitals; bamboo skewers,
candles, cheese graters, clips, fly swatter, ice cubes, knives, latex squares, leather thongs, massage
bongers, rabbit fur, ropes, scalp scrubber, silk, spoons, towels, weights, and whips are items that can be
useful in giving your bottom's genitals a ride they won't forget. (And no, you don't do this until you cause real
damage, any more than you do with male genitals. Don't be scraping, scabbing, or scarring--these are the
most sensitive parts of the body you're playing with!)
Communication is paramount in female genital play; women's pussies vary as much as any other part of
women's' bodies (or more), and responses will vary equally dramatically. In general, the same sort of rhythm
discussed in the whipping section is useful in cunt play, though if anything the top needs to go even more
slowly, as the sensations will be more intense and focused than in almost any other kind of sensation scene.
One final tidbit: apparently, for many women, a common pre-orgasmic response is for the clit to retreat into
its hood. If you are giving your partner some very delicious sensation (possibly combined with some
just-right pain) and her clit disappears, DON'T STOP! (Unless you want to avoid her orgasm... don't push
this too far, unless your submissive's feet are tied down--she may kick.) And know your limits; if your
submissive really wants an orgasm to end the scene, giving her one may make her EXTREMELY grateful to
you, and waiting too long may burn you both out. This is good stuff to negotiate about beforehand in any
scene--how would you like the scene to end? Breaking such an agreement will engender mistrust, but
honesty, as always, will help everyone get what they want.
