What is BDSM?
BDSM is an acronym that refers to a variety of sexual practices and activities that involve a very strong interplay of roles: B for Bondage, D for Discipline and Domination, S for Submission and Sadism, and M for Masochism. These practices include spanking, bondage, role play, power exchange and a variety of erotic activities involving domination and submission.
It is important to note that all activities in the sexual context, and more specifically in BDSM, are based on mutual consent between adults and should be done in a safe and consensual manner. Open communication with your partner in bed and the setting of boundaries by both partners is essential to ensure that all parties involved feel safe and comfortable in BDSM activities.
BDSM can also have different levels of intensity, ranging from gentle and playful practices to more intense activities. It always depends on the preferences and limits of the participants.
BDSM toys for submissives
In BDSM, there is always a dominant role and a submissive role. If you are one of those who enjoy letting yourself go and abandon yourself to your partner's desires, it means that you are accepting the role of the submissive in bed, although that may change the next time you have a sexual experience!
So that you can enjoy yourself to the fullest, here are the best toys for submissives that will make you put all your senses in motion.
Handcuffs
Handcuffs are toys designed to immobilise the submissive's hands or ankles. They can be made of leather, neoprene, metal or other strong materials. This method of restraint provides a sense of loss of control, which will increase the submissive's arousal. They can be attached to the bed or other furniture for further immobilisation.
Masks
Masks are accessories that cover the eyes and block vision. They can be made of soft fabric, leather or stiffer materials. By eliminating sight, other senses are heightened, which will increase your anticipation and arousal. They also contribute to the feeling of submission, as you lose visual control.
Collars and leashes
BDSM collars are used as symbols of submission and belonging. These can include rings to attach chains or leashes. The collar can have symbolic meanings in power dynamics. Leashes allow the dominant to exert physical control over you and guide you as their submissive.
Nipple clamps
Nipple clamps apply pressure to the nipples, some have chains that allow additional weight to be added. These toys offer sensations of controlled pain and pleasure to the nipple area. Weights on nipple clamps add a pulling and tugging sensation that many people enjoy.
Gags
A gag is an item that does not allow the submissive person to speak. This toy can be made in the form of balls with straps, bars or even inflatable gags. Since verbal communication is not allowed, it creates a dynamic of control and submission that allows the dominant person to exert a greater level of authority.
BDSM toys for dominas
Dominants are the people who assume the dominant role in BDSM and have the responsibility and power to guide everything that will be done in the sexual act. There are a wide variety of BDSM toys and accessories that will help you take control and be the one who takes the reins in bed.
Whips
Whips are impact toys that can vary in length and material. They can be made of leather, latex or other materials. Some have multiple straps or strands that hit the skin, while others are more solid. These toys can be used for gentle stroking or harder spanking.
Vibrators and sex toys
Vibrators and sex toys are designed for sexual stimulation, with the difference being that in BDSM, it is up to the domina to decide where and when to use them. The submissive's pleasure will be in your hands and that will excite you too.
Role play costumes
Role play costumes can be sexy lingerie, uniforms, themed costumes. Whatever it takes to create specific scenarios that you both dream of experiencing. These costumes will help you get into the role and allow you to live out your most hidden fantasies. Each of the scenarios will lead you to play more, allowing you to reach high levels of arousal.
Instruments of punishment
Instruments of punishment can be paddles, canes, rods or other items designed to administer physical punishment. If used responsibly and with clear boundaries, you can become a total dominator in BDSM and make your partner submit.
Erotic feathers
Erotic feathers are very soft and light BDSM toys that are used to caress the skin. They can come in the form of individual feathers, feather dusters or feather floggers. They are ideal for creating soft sensations and bristling all the senses of the person you are dominating. They can be used to tickle, caress and get into the most sensitive areas of the body, as this will awaken the sensitivity of the skin.
BDSM Dice
BDSM dice are specially designed dice, as each side of the dice represents actions, places or intensities that you will have to perform. Each side of the dice has a different instruction. This toy is perfect for introducing a surprise factor into your BDSM practices.
It can include actions such as stroking, spanking, kissing, etc. It will also indicate places like the back, the neck, the mouth. Finally, you will have to roll the dice to know the intensity: light, medium or strong.
Electrostimulation
Electrostimulation is done through devices that generate controlled electrical impulses to stimulate specific areas of the body. This practice will provoke sensations ranging from mild tingling to more intense pulsations.
This is an advanced BDSM practice, so it is very important that you buy good quality equipment designed for this purpose, always following the safety instructions.
Bondage benches and furniture
Bondage furniture is specially designed to secure the submissive during BDSM sessions, so that he or she is not harmed, and you can give free rein to your urges, without breaking any everyday household objects. Benches often include attachment points for ropes or handcuffs.
They offer comfort and restraint at the same time, allowing a wide variety of positions for the domina to explore and control.
Hot wax candles
These erotic candles have been designed to produce wax at a body-safe temperature during application. The hot wax can be applied in a controlled way to arouse tactile and thermal sensations. You can use your candles to tease and stimulate various areas of your submissive's body.
Shibari and Kinbaku ropes
Shibari and Kinbaku are Japanese rope bondage techniques that go beyond making movement impossible. They are about transforming the submissive into an artistic form of expression and emotional connection. The ropes are to be used in decorative visual patterns, which at the same time creates a sense of vulnerability and surrender.
Tips for your BDSM sessions
Before starting your BDSM session, it is good to sit down and talk to your partner or the person with whom you are going to have these practices. You must show your consent and express the limits that each of you does not want to exceed. Both parties should give explicit consent and be informed about the BDSM practices and toys that will be used.
Once you have had this conversation, you can start the BDSM session. Here are some tips!
Safety word
Establish a safety word or signal to be used to immediately stop the BDSM activity. This is very important to ensure that all participants feel safe and have the ability to stop the session if at any point they do not feel comfortable.
Constant communication
During the session, keep communication open. Regularly ask how the other person is feeling, especially on days when you are experimenting with new practices or new toys.
Know the toys and techniques
Before using any toys or techniques, it is good to understand how they work and what the possible risks are. This is especially important for more intense or advanced practices.
Physical safety
It is essential to know the safe areas of the body, avoiding sensitive or injury-prone areas during BDSM practices. Maintain a careful balance in the intensity of actions to prevent unwanted injuries. A detailed knowledge of anatomy will help you to have a safe and consensual experience, ensuring that practices respect the physical and emotional boundaries of all parties involved.
The safe areas of the body are:
- Upper back
- Upper arms
- Outer thighs
Sensitive and injury-prone areas of the body are:
- Genitals
- Nipples
- Neck
- Armpits
Hygiene
Maintain good hygiene for both you and your toys. Wash and disinfect BDSM toys before and after each use to prevent infection.
Emergency preparedness and equipment
Keep a first aid kit handy and be aware of the location of safety items, such as scissors to cut ropes in case of need.
After the session
Take some time when you have finished, to make the other person feel cared for and you feel calm as well. After the session, make sure you both feel comfortable and cared for through hugs, chats or just being present for each other.
Continuous learning
BDSM is a broad and diverse field, so continue to learn about new practices, techniques and safety measures to improve your skills and enjoy increasingly safe and pleasurable experiences.
