Love Cuffs & Restraints

Take control

Whether you're into serious bondage sessions or merely exploring a romantic fantasy of rescuing a damsel in distress, there's no need to bribe the police station commander for a spare set of cuffs and his sjambok. There is a wide variety of sexual cuffs and restraints to make sure your victim does not escape and just in case he or she is being naughty, choose from a variety of sex disciplining tools.

When you hear bondage you think of a person getting tied up and spanked by some leather-masked sex deviant. But bondage does not have to be about pain. In fact, there are different bondage levels and you can take turns in being restrained to see what turns you on. But before you get all tied up, here are a few important tips to remember:

Plan ahead: Although spontaneity plays a big role in great erotic games, planning ahead might just ensure success with your sexual indulgence. In fact, the best sexperiments are the ones where you plan ahead. You can imagine that all your effort of convincing your partner to agree to a little bondage to spice up your sex life could easily be wasted if you end up having to spend 20 minutes looking for something to tie her up.

Think ahead how to use the restraints: A little bit of common sense will do the trick here. What exactly is it that you would like to try out? If your legs are tied together, how are you going to spread the love? OK, now we've agreed to spread the person, but you don't have bed posts to tie their legs to. You can always wrap ropes around the legs of the bed and spread-eagle your bottom that way. And so the logic continues&

Choose your material carefully: Restraints can easily damage the skin and may cause long-term damage to tendons and joints if worn too long or incorrectly. Even soft material like silk scarves, bandannas and nylons (which have a nasty habit of tightening under tension) sometimes get so tight that they have to be cut off. And handcuffs made of metal can lead to nerve and bone damage not the sexy outcome you were hoping for. And remember you go shopping choose your restraint according to your sex game plan as not one-need-fits-all.

Not too tight: Make sure that your partner's wrists are able to move around.

Don't create tension: Apart from the sexual kind, the person's arms should feel comfortable and not pulled apart.

Don't put weight on the cuffs: Sticking to the missionary position with you on top is not exactly the brightest idea when you've got your partner's hands tied behind her back.

No interruptions: Try and remember that you've got a person tied to the bed. You cannot all of a sudden attend to the front door or take the dogs for a walk what if the house catches on fire?

No rush: Add to the erotic romance of the bondage session by taking your time to restrain you partner. This way you can also ensure that you do it right. There is no worse fun spoiler when the restraint comes undone halfway through the sexual fantasy.
