by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
Using a harness can enhance and highlight specific parts of the body and direct attention to the enticing bits of the beautiful female form. It is also perfect for people with a leather fetish and bondage enthusiasts, as the ideal woman’s harness can provoke, excite, and frame the lovely female body. Here, we’ll discuss how you can choose a woman’s bondage harness and how to get the most out of this amazingly sexy accessory. What Is a Women’s Bondage Harness? A bondage women’s harness is an aesthetic item that women wear to showcase the body and bring attention to specific body parts. The harness is made from a series of straps that are strategically placed and arranged over the body, held together with buckles, loops, and snap closures. It can be made from leather, faux leather, neoprene, elastic and other materials. There are various models of BDSM women’s harnesses, like models worn over the chest, models with g-strings, full-body models with lace inserts, and other accessories. Depending on the model, a woman’s bondage harness can be worn as an only item, or it can be combined with different accessories or fetish clothing. Shop BDSM Women's Harnesses ===COLLECTION=== How to Select a BDSM Women’s Harness? Selecting a bondage women’s harness is most definitely an exciting process, but you have to know what to look for, as harnesses differ from women’s sexy lingerie. For example, the harness needs to be easy to put on and take off but still offer support and fit the body perfectly. Our experts prepared the following shopping guide to help you choose the perfect woman’s bondage harness: Design – the design is the first thing you need to consider when choosing a women’s harness. You need to consider the body parts you wish to enhance, like the breasts, the waist, the buttocks, etc. Also, note the additional accessories and attachment points that allow you to attach the harness to a suitable anchor point. Closures – When choosing this item, also note the type of closures the women’s harness has, as it will affect how you put it on and take it off. You can get models with buckles that you can either put on by yourself or have a partner help you. Some models definitely require your partner’s help to put on, especially models with intricate straps and multiple closure buckles or snaps. Size – always choose a model that fits the wearer. You want the harness to fit perfectly, not be too loose or too tight. Don’t try to fit into a bondage harness that is too small, as it will ruin the appearance, and you are risking hurting yourself. Also, if the harness is too loose, it will not have the expected effect, and it will ruin the experience. Material – women’s bondage harnesses are usually made from leather, vegan or faux leather, neoprene, and elastic. However, some models have lace and microfiber elements strategically placed to enhance the look of the harness. Accessories – the women’s harnesses come with various accessories that enhance the look and the overall experience. Some harnesses come as simple elastic bands that lift and bring attention to the breasts, but there are complex models with a collar, handcuffs, thongs, tassels, and even D-rings you can use in various bondage scenarios. We hope our guide on how to select a woman’s bondage harness covers the basics and key features to note when you choose a bondage harness for the lady in your life. We also have a whole collection of guides on how to select and use different BDSM tools and various sex toys. We also invite you to browse our sex toy store, where we carry a fantastic selection of women’s and men’s BDSM harnesses, BDSM tools, sex furniture, whips, canes, ticklers, and a lot more. FAQs Is it safe to wear a women’s bondage harness? The bondage harness is a safe item to wear, but you need to be careful to only put on a well-fitting harness. Another thing to note is that you should never overtighten the straps and buckles and remove the harness if it becomes uncomfortable. Why do women like wearing a leather bondage harness? The women’s bondage harness is a highly aesthetic clothing item that brings focus to specific body parts. The bondage harness does not offer any protection on the body, as it only frames and showcases the bare skin. When used with other bondage equipment, it becomes a sultry, sexy item that enhances the visual appeal of the female form. Learn More With Our Other Sex Toy Guides: How To Choose a BDSM Cane?

Types of Sex Furniture: 7 Popular Options to Consider

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
Sex furniture is a thing, and no, it is not for sex dungeons only. Instead, different pieces are designed for various applications; these are forms of furniture that help with positioning, improving comfort, allowing different angles of penetration, and more stimulation. And yes, some models are designed for bondage or can even combine conventional furniture items with bondage implements. There are also traditional furniture models that are associated with erotic or sex furniture, like the four-poster bed and the chaise lounge. You are guessing correctly; today, we’ll discuss the types of sex furniture you can introduce in your bedroom and improve your sex life. Types of Sex Furniture While any type of furniture you have sex on can be considered sex furniture, there are specific furniture items that are designed for sex. We discuss the types that are intended as aids but will also bring a sense of sexiness and sophistication to your space, allowing you to upgrade your style. We’ll touch upon BDSM sex furniture, as we believe this category deserves its article, which we’ll tackle soon enough. For now, here are the main types of sex furniture you should consider: Sex Pillows The sex pillow is the most common and most affordable piece of sex furniture you can use. The most valuable and versatile model is the wedge-shaped sex pillow, as this model allows you more support, deeper penetration angles, and more accessible positioning. If you are feeling daring, you can even get sex pillows with built-in restraint systems, D-rings, and grip handles. Each design brings its unique features, so make sure to consider your wishes and expectations when making a selection. We have to note that there are also sex pillow mounts that have built-in pockets where you can fit a vibrating wand, a dildo, or even a thrusting dildo and use them to freely ride your way into an orgasm. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Swings The sex swing is a piece of sex furniture that provides support for the body and allows different poses. The sex swing hangs from a ceiling or a door or can be free-standing, and it offers sturdy support for the body while providing easy access. The sex swings come with different designs, like a sex sling that supports a part or the entire body or a traditional sex swing that has a body-support strap and stirrups for supporting the body. These also come in a hammock-like design that allows the partner to lie in the sling while providing easy access to their orifices. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Chaises The sex chaise is a rather large piece of furniture that you can put in your house and use when the mood strikes. The sex chaise is also very ergonomic, as most of these have curved shapes that follow the natural curves of the body, allowing you to comfortably lie down on it and provide ample access for your partner. Also, most of the sex chaises are so elegant and beautiful; you’d like to have one of these in your house just for the aesthetic appeal. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Benches The sex bench is more of a BDSM furniture element, as it is designed to allow you to get down on all fours and be comfortable in this position. These may look inconspicuous at first, but the sex bench comes in really handy when you need to position your submissive partner or when you want to give them a sensual massage. Different models may come with different restraint options, such as D-rings to attach different cuffs or built-in cuffs to keep your sub in place. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Chairs While you can use almost any chair style for sex, there are specific chair models that are designed for sex only. We are, of course, thinking about the dildo chairs that may or may not come with a dildo permanently attached to them. Some of these are simple blow-up models, while others are dildo holders, and advanced models include complex designs that provide so many options. Some models are even simple and straightforward, like the queening chair. In any case, the dildo and sex chairs are favored mainly by BDSM practitioners, as most of these are perfect for restraining a partner while giving or receiving pleasure. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Tables & Sex Machines BDSM practitioners commonly use sex tables, as these allow you to restrain your partner and usually come with different height shelves, head support, and leg supports. The more basic models look like a massage table but with holes at strategic places; some models even look like a gynecological table with stirrups. However, these are an effective way to keep your submissive partner in place and get full access to their body. These are often combined with sex machines that allow you to enhance your bondage games. ===COLLECTION=== Sex Bedsheets While these are not a sex furniture item, the sex bedsheets are an essential part of fetish play. Most of these are made from vinyl or PVC cloth that does not allow liquid to escape, which will enable you to go crazy with lube or other liquids. It is perfect for squirting or when you use an ejaculating dildo, as the sex sheet will trap all the liquids and won’t make a mess of the bed. ===COLLECTION=== Why Use Sex Furniture? You may wonder why you need a specific type of furniture for sex when you can get down and dirty almost anywhere. But the truth is that the models mentioned above bring a real boost in sexual pleasure, as these are designed for better comfort or more possibilities. Most of these items are designed with ergonomic curves and contours that allow you to better position your or your partner’s body, providing ample support. But sex furniture can also help people with mobility issues or people with physical limits. We also like that sex furniture allows us to explore new sex positions that may not be easily achievable. The key conclusion is that while some furniture items are universally suited for sex, like the bed, you should consider using some specific sex furniture. Feel free to browse our sex toy store, where you’ll find our impressive selection of sex furniture. We also carry an incredible selection of sex toys like vibrators, dildos, anal toys, male toys, strap-on toys, sexy lingerie and much more.

BDSM & Impact Play: Guide to Safely Introduce Impact Toys

BDSM & Impact Play: Guide to Safely Introduce Impact Toys

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
Ever been intrigued by being spanked during sex? Well, you would be happy to hear that it is more common than you think and is a common element of BDSM plays, where it is referred to as impact play. Impact play is a more general term that covers all the sexual plays that involve hitting or being hit with an object in a safe, consensual way. Please read on as we share our detailed guide on impact play and how to safely introduce this to your relationship. What Is Impact Play: Definition Impact play is a sex practice that includes one partner striking or hitting the other partner in a consensual way, where one or both partners enjoy the gratification. It can consist of erotic spanking on the butt with an open palm or with an impact toy like a paddle, a cane, or a riding crop, known as paddling, caning, or cropping, respectively. Erotic flagellation is another form of impact play where the dominant partner uses a belt, a flogger, or a whip; the latter is referred to as flogging and whipping. The main goal of impact play is to increase the sensitivity of the submissive partner’s skin and create increased physical and psychological sensations. The Appeal of Impact Play The main appeal of impact play, and why so many try it, is that this is simple, easy to do, and a great introduction to exploring your kinks. Impact play is also a great way to relieve stress, as it has a profound effect on the body. Physical Sensations The physical sensations the body experiences from the impact toys can be stingy or thuddy. The stinging sensations are caused by thin, narrow toys like whips, belts, riding crops, and canes, and these are sharp, intense sensations that leave a lingering sting. It brings more heat and will more likely make the submissive partner yelp in pleasure. On the other hand, the thuddy sensations are often described as deep, heavy sensations that leave a delicious aftereffect. The impact toys that bring a predominantly thuddy sensation are the floggers and paddles and, of course, the palm of the hand. Many submissives describe these as grounding, relaxed sensations. Psychological Effects The pain that the body experiences during the impact play makes the body produce hormones, including adrenaline and endorphin. The pain and pleasure receptors in the brain are intricately linked, and prolonged exposure to endorphins causes dizzying euphoria that leads to relieving stress and immense pleasure. It is commonly referred to as a state of subspace, where the body stops feeling pain but is a strong emotional release that many crave. Consent and Safety are Key The thing we need to discuss when you are looking to introduce impact play to your relationship is to ensure the consent from both partners. It needs to include detailed explanations and negotiations, as this is an activity that includes actual hitting and pain. Both partners need to understand the risks involved, as well as the physical and emotional risks involved. Open communication is key because if you don’t communicate beforehand, things may quickly get out of control, and you’ll both end up traumatized instead of satisfied. Not to mention that if you hit someone without their explicit consent, it is plain domestic violence. What we mean to say is never to rush into things but to discuss things with your partner, be clear, and make sure you are both on the same page. Here is a simple checklist you can use as a guide when considering trying impact play with your partner: Start with an open mind – always approach any new pay with an open mind. Never judge your partner for suggesting you try something new, and be open and respectful to their desires. Be mindful of the anatomy – learn what body parts are that are safe to hit and where you should never hit your partner. Aim for the butt, thighs and boobs, and avoid the spine, lower back, neck, head, ankles, wrists, hands, and feet. Practice your skills – if you use a paddle or another implement, practice hitting with it on a pillow so you can train your arm and not deliver a severe blow. Discuss the activities – outline the ideas for your partner, discuss the tools you’ll be using and their boundaries, establish a safe word, and talk about anything else that will put both of you at ease. Regular check-ins – regularly check with your partner during the scene to confirm you are both on the same page and are enjoying the activity. Aftercare – aftercare is key with every high-intensity sexual activity that leaves the partner physically and emotionally drained. Have a concrete plan that includes enough time and space to slowly come down from the experience. Where to Aim the Impacts As our impact play checklist outlines above, you need to learn where to aim your hits on your partner’s body. The safe zones on the body are the fleshiest parts: the lower butt, upper thighs, and boobs, so beginners in impact play should only focus on these areas. These areas are meatier, don’t bruise as quickly, and can withstand the intensity of the blow. More experienced users can also include the inner thighs, the calves, the back of the shoulders, and the upper arms. We can’t stress things enough, but you should NEVER hit the lower back, the spine, the neck, the backs of the knees, the elbows and armpits, the wrists, the feet, and the head. How to Start If you are a complete beginner, then we advise you to start with light spanking; you can use your hand, a plastic ruler, or even a plastic spatula. Always start slow and check in with your partner to see how they are faring. Aim the hits on the butt, aiming for the middle part of the gluteus, as this area is the meatiest and does not bruise easily, but is sensitive and can be very pleasurable for the receiving partner. If you are using your hand, pace your hits until you and your partner become more comfortable, and then you can amp up the intensity. If you decide to use a tool, practice with it before you start, and start with lighter hits. Make sure you are hitting where you aim as if you miss the mark, you can cause unwanted pain or even serious harm to your partner. Please note that you can always increase the intensity as the scene progresses, but you can’t take back a too-hard hit. So, always, and we mean always, go soft and slow. Lightly spanking up your partner can be a precursor to more intense play, using other sex toys or sex. A light impact play session can also be an incredible foreplay, as the excitement and the increased blood flow the impacts cause will make your partner so much more sensitive to the things you want to do to them later on. Aftercare is Key As we stated above, aftercare is integral to any type of intense sexual play, and this includes when engaging in impact play. The aftercare step involves checking in with your partner physically and emotionally, which provides for hugging, cuddling, and emotional support. A good idea is to place a light blanket over them, hug them, and ask them how they feel, what they liked, and what they did not like. If you’ve been particularly intense, you may need to tend to cuts and bruises with some cream or apply ice to developing bruises. It also includes bringing liquids for rehydration and feeding your partner. Different Impact Toys Now that we’ve covered the basics of impact play let’s take a look at the different impact play implements you can use: Paddle – the spanking paddle is an essential implement for impact play. You can get a flexible model made from leather or plastic or a stiff paddle made from wood or even leather-coated metal, and each model delivers different sensations. Flogger – the flogger is the most versatile of impact toys, and you can find models that come with fewer or more strands, depending on the sensations you want your sub to experience. Leather floggers bring less intense sensations than rubber models, which cause a more painful thud. Cane – the cane is a vital tool for power and impact plays, and you should select a model that is durable, well-made, and long enough for you to use however you like. Choose a can with a handle that is easy to grip so you can better control it when you apply it to your sub. Crop – the riding crop is a popular and versatile impact tool as it allows you to deliver a localized, stingy sensation, but it is also so easy to handle. You can find crops with different designs and lengths, allowing you to provide light and medium-strength impact. Whip – the whip is one of the strictest impact toys you can use, and these are recommended for experienced users. The whip is useful for sensual play or strict punishment, but you will need to carefully select the model suitable for the sensations you want to deliver. ===COLLECTION=== The Bottom Line Note that we intend this article to serve as an outline for the main things to note when engaging in impact play. We can’t stress enough the importance of having clear, open communication with your partner when it comes to engaging in impact play. Establish a safe word, and always start slowly and increase the intensity very slowly. Beginners should begin spanking with their hands and light, playful smacks before continuing to use impact play tools. Incorporating impact toys can enhance physical and emotional intimacy and strengthen the bond between you and your partner. Learn More With Our Anal Sex Toy Guides: How To Choose a BDSM Paddle?

10 Self-Bondage Ideas & Tips

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
No matter how you approach it, bondage play is a classic and popular kink. There are numerous reasons why individuals love bondage play, and self-bondage is no different. Roleplaying as someone else in a risky escape situation, the security of being locked and bound tightly, or the liberation from feeling a little helpless are just a few. Self-bondage might be the whole game or just the adrenaline-filled foreplay. Self-bondage can be an excellent way to satiate your kink itch or indulge in other fantasies when you're by yourself. The goal is to send you to a thrilling, suspenseful, and enjoyable situation, taking you out of your usual surroundings. What is self bondage? Self-bondage practice refers to the erotic and sexual act of subjecting oneself to restraints. Several methods can be used to achieve this but in general, there are two types of self-bondage: Sensual self-bondage Sensual self-bondage frequently involves more of a psychological high than actual physical restraint. Here, being constrained is much more enjoyable than imagining risky, adrenaline-fueled bondage scenarios. Those who like sensuous self-bondage might employ ties that they are confident they can break free from, might only engage in bondage as a part of foreplay, would frequently leave loose knots in their rope, or might utilize a lock and key system where the key is relatively simple to get. Strict self-bondage On the other hand, strict self-bondage is typically more complex and challenging to escape from and is very much for people who crave a challenge and believe the risky nature of self-bondage is what matters most. Strict self-bondage can also be adapted to satisfy other fetishes, such as humiliation, slave play, or punishment, depending on your preferences. When you're alone, achieving this form of self-bondage is harder because you need to set clear boundaries for how far you can push yourself without hurting yourself. The reasons why people engage in self-bondage vary from person to person. It could be that they enjoy bondage; they have no one to tie them up, they enjoy the thrill of binding themselves in anticipation of being discovered or because it is a part of a fantasy they wish to experience. Whatever the cause, the possibility and the planning can improve the act of self-bondage, or the foreplay can heighten the high that can be felt physically or sexually from bondage. As you plan for that self-bondage session, your body starts to respond to the ideas and emotions connected to the preparation that occurs prior, sometimes days beforehand. Safety Tips Before Getting Started Plan how, where, and when you want to indulge yourself in getting started. Before you even consider tying the first knot, ensure you will only be disturbed if you want to be found. Your safety should always come first. The phrases "Safe, Sane, and Consensual" should be kept in mind throughout self-bondage sessions. Plan Ahead Study the self-bondage techniques you're interested in trying, get comfortable with the ropes, binds, or restraints you're using, and try to organize as much of your solo session as possible, considering any potential problems. Prepare your self-bondage scene in advance by running through a mental checklist. Create a clear plan for what you want to achieve and adhere to; changing it afterward could impact other aspects of your bondage and your ability to escape. Take it easy It is common to think of bondage as complete confinement, but while playing by yourself, you should always ensure a simple way to get out of whatever situation you are in. Start your sessions in a well-lit room with basic binds you can undo as needed. Once you gain more proficiency in self-bondage, there will come a time for more intricate, complex constraints. To allow one hand to reach the other, leave yourself plenty of wiggle room. In the beginning, it's best to avoid timed restraints and rope ties that are very complicated. Once you're ready to start practicing more intense binds, you should decide on a time limit for yourself and stick to it. Keep safety in mind Since you'll be playing with and by yourself, you must take precautions and ensure your safety. Keep things close at hand and have a backup plan in case something goes wrong or unexpected occurs. If you're being bound by ropes, scarves, or plastic ties, having a trustworthy friend on call, extra keys to relatively easy locks, or a spare knife nearby are all great alternatives. This way, if something unplanned does happen, you'll have a quick way out. Think smart Your pleasure is important but try to maintain it when creating a complex self-bondage scenario. Elaborate, tight, or tough-to-escape ties can be exciting, but you should keep the more challenging binds for the couple's play instead of complicating things. The more elaborate, the more chances that something can go wrong. Pro-tip: Avoid using mouth, neck, and head restraints. These are typically more dangerous, and you should use them when you have a partner to help out when necessary. Have a weak point in the material It's always a good idea to include a weak point in the bind if you're tying yourself with robust materials like ropes or chains to make it simpler to break free. Now, all you must do to flee is cut or destroy the weak link, and you'll be free as a bird! Zip ties, small bits of rope, and fishing lines are all popular choices that could be utilized for this purpose. To connect your chains or ropes, use one of these things. Popular Self-Bondage Techniques While you would imagine using handcuffs or other straightforward wrist restraints, the realm of self-bondage is far more complex than that. There are countless choices; you only need to be willing to try new things. When done correctly, self-bondage can be an enjoyable kind of sexual play that enables you to indulge in your wildest desires of self-restraint without the need for a partner. Here are some self-bondage techniques you might want to try: Basic Hog Tie Step 1: The Basic Hog Tie is performed by crossing or joining your ankles and creating a cinch noose in the excess end. You can pick up the slack by employing the special ring device or winding it between your ankles. Remember to use the wrist coil. Step 2: Your wrists should be as close to your ankles as feasible while you lay on your back. Put your wrists within the wrist coil, then tighten the rope around them. Step 3: Lie on your stomach by rolling over. Now, wriggle out of your chain. The knot gets tighter the more force you apply to it. You'll need it to get out if you've done it correctly. If you're brave, leave your escape knives on the other side of the room. ===COLLECTION=== Crotch rope Step 1: Make a loop by folding the rope in half and putting it around your waist. Pass the ends of the rope under the waist loop and between your buttocks and legs. Tie a knot at the front. The small of your back is a good place to tie a knot. Step 2: The rope ends should be re-passed under the waist loop and back between your legs and buttocks. To separate the cheeks, keep the ends close to your side. The ends of each rope cross over the vertical ropes at the front and pull the front ropes apart to form a diamond shape. Step 3: Pass the ends of the rope back under two sets of vertical ropes at the back. Pass the ends to the front and under the front diamond. Tie a knot on both of the front diamond's side points which will help separate the cheeks even more. Step 4: Pass the ends of the rope under the waist loop at the back, between your legs and buttocks. Next, tie the last knots underneath the diamond loops at the apexes in front. Pro-tip: Make sure you have your favorite dildo or your butt plug. Swimsuit tie Step 1: Insert one hand into the swimsuit's leg openings. Seize the cinch noose and wrist coil. Step 2: Insert your hand in the wrist coil. Thread the wrist coil through the cinch noose. Step 3: Place your other hand into the coil facing the other way. Twist your hands such that the coil around your wrists looks like a figure "8." Step 4: Reposition the "first" hand through the leg openings so the swimsuit's crotch rests between your wrists. Tighten the noose around you. Ball tie Step 1: Get two coils of rope, nylon, or any other material ready, and position them just over your knees. Securely fasten the arches, then attach the special ring device and cinch noose. Next, put on a mouth gag. Step 2: Push your arms through the knee coils. The coils ought to be tight but not overly so. The wrist coil, cinch noose, and pull cord must all be pulled simultaneously. Step 3: Cinch up the noose. Adjust the ring device's tightness. Pro-tip: Keep a decent knife handy because you won't be able to move but will have to jump in place gently. The best solution is to set a knife on a bedsheet and pull the sheet toward you with your fingers. Popular solo bondage gear types Learning how to self-bondage using a new technique or two and the safety tips that go with it can spice up and completely transform the experience of spending time alone. To help you start with self-bondage, we've included a guide to some basic equipment and a few more advanced tools below. Ankle and wrist cuffs These are excellent self-bondage binds and have to be among your first purchases. Bondage handcuffs come with steel or Velcro buckles and can be made of various materials, including leather and neoprene. They are excellent for self-bondage since they are simple to put on, comfortable to wear, and safer than rope, which can slip. Remember to pick appropriate cuffs for your wrists and ankles when purchasing them. Always maintain proximity to the cuff key. Try placing the key in a timed lockbox to prevent yourself from escaping for a predetermined time. Cuffs also work well with ice locks and various other bondage restraint methods. Not to mention they feel super kinky to wear. ===COLLECTION=== Rope If you're interested in self-bondage, a rope can be a great place to start because it's adaptable and easily cut with scissors if you get stuck. A rope can bind certain body areas or act as a body harness. You can also use it to bind yourself to inanimate objects, like your bed or a bedpost. Many participants appreciate the erotic sensation that a rope can create as it brushes against their erogenous areas. The types of knots used can range greatly from simple to intricate, depending on the type of bondage you need or even the part of the body being tied. However, make sure to get some practice before using a rope. Avoid using a rope around the head or neck if you are alone. Plastic wrap & Tape You might automatically associate plastic wrap with storing your leftovers, but it has far more practical applications. Restricting yourself and covering some of your body with plastic wrap is a terrific way to test out self-bondage if you're intrigued by it but need more time to invest in locks, chains, or rope. Although plastic wrap may appear flimsy, removing it becomes challenging if you add enough layers. Tape should be your go-to self-bondage material if you enjoy pain play. In contrast to regular tape, bondage tape adheres exclusively to itself; as a result, it does not pull hair and does not leave any sticky residue behind. It's ideal for both fetish enthusiasts and beginners. With the help of bondage tape, you may bind, gag, and blindfold anyone. It works well for brief self-bonding sessions. Timed released Locking yourself up with a timed restraint is a terrific method to intensify the enjoyment, and it's also a safe way to restrain yourself while giving you the impression that there's no way out — at least, not until your timed release comes. One option is utilizing an ice lock, a small container that you fill with water and freeze. It will keep you bound until the ice melts, at which point you will be released from your bondage. Keep the ice cube that contains the key in a convenient location, or you can use the ice by rubbing the cube all over your body as an active part of the game. Pro-tip: Make sure to test an ice lock beforehand to determine how long it will take to melt before using it! Digital time locks are a modern replacement for ice locks that are becoming increasingly popular. When the timer expires, these smart locks will automatically unlock. Depending on your preferences, you may set the timer for a few minutes up to several hours. To prepare for the possibility that you might need to leave before the timer expires, I advise using a timed lock with an emergency unlock feature. Chains Chains are a heavy, sexy material with a decent bit of weight. When they rattle together, they make a piercing sound that is quite arousing. Chains may be used in a wide variety of ways. The most popular use of chains is to tie yourself to a bedpost if you want to stick to role play or a collar if you are into pet play. Chains are much harder to escape from or cut free from than a conventional rope constraint, which changes the game a little. You should wait a bit and use chains once you gather a bigger self-bondage experience. Vibrators and plugs Vibrators are amusing ways to torment yourself when in self-bondage to your breaking point. But since you frequently don't have free hands to use these, you'll need to get a little inventive. The advantages of anal plug is that they can be placed beforehand and remain in place throughout your session. If they can be operated remotely, they can be turned on even when you are bound, which makes them particularly useful. ===COLLECTION=== Related Article Best Bondage Kits Final thoughts Self-bondage refers to the practice of intentionally restraining yourself from experiencing sexual pleasure. Despite the widespread belief that bonding must take place in the company of a second person, there are numerous methods in which one can engage in self-bonding. Ropes, anal hooks, and handcuffs are all acceptable options. You can choose whether you want a more sensual approach or whether your bondage is meant to be an act of exhibitionism or punishment. As long as you stay safe, there are no restrictions on self-bondage, but being safe requires a lot of preparation, planning, and research. Always put your toys to the test to learn how to escape the shackles on your own. Be sure to start slow as you explore this new world and have someone you can call in an emergency. Learning self-bondage has numerous advantages, but one of the most important is a healthier, more contented feeling of self.

Why Do People Like Bondage?

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
Do you enjoy getting frisky in the bedroom? Maybe you like to be tied up by your partner and let them have their way with you? Well, you are not alone in this, and you should know that many couples enjoy this activity, known as bondage. Here, we’ll cover the topic of why people enjoy bondage and like being tied up during sexual games. Bondage is a form of sexual play where one partner submits to the other; one of the partners is consensually tied up and submits to sexual pleasure or sexual torture by the other partner. The two lovers have a complete trust, or they build trust between each other. It is considered even an art form and is a thing that spices the love life of many couples, especially BDSM enthusiasts, as the B in the acronym stands for bondage. Why People Enjoy Bondage? Bondage happens when partners trust each other; one partner uses restraints on the other partner. The entire action increases the intensity of the stimulation and the pleasure they feel and share. It also allows new sensations that can increase over time, and many people have said that they enjoy and love participating in bondage play. Generally, people love bondage because it brings partners closer to each other, and they can explore their desires and fantasies. There is a psychological element to bondage related to letting go of control and allowing their partner to make the decisions. You can also look at it like this: the person works a regular day job and follows orders all day, so they need to feel empowered in their private time; bondage allows them to become the boss who gives the orders. When people tie their partner, they can feel aroused and strong; the submitted or the tied-up partner also feels aroused and enjoys obeying the partner’s orders, which can increase intimacy. Many people have said they’ve tried some kind of bondage, usually involving bondage rope and liked the feeling it brings. Bondage makes people safe in the hands of their lovers and sometimes even keeps them away from the guilt or shame of doing something they secretly like but are ashamed to say or ask. What Can You Use for Bondage? People can use bondage cuffs, scarves, ropes, or different aids when it comes to bondage restraints; sometimes, other kinds of physical restraints are used. Novices to bondage usually buy and use bondage kits that include everything you need to restrain and tease your partner. More experienced pairs can engage in potentially dangerous plays, but we should note that this requires experience and a great deal of trust between the partners. However, the partners should agree on terms and a safe word that is a stop signal when it is too much or when things are on edge and crossing a line. Please note that if you are considering trying bondage, you should start slowly and start using beginner-friendly restraints until you build trust and achieve a level of comfort with your partner. Experienced users can also resort to using specialized bondage sex furniture to make binding a partner more accessible. Shop All Bondage Gear ===COLLECTION=== Final Words There are many benefits from bondage sex; it is easy to do, it can be different, there is role play involved, there are many ways to do it, you can become closer with the partner, you can build your trust, it enhances pleasure, and it is always consensual. You can find more helpful guides in our blog, and browse our sex toy store, where we have an excellent variety of BDSM gear and a lot more.

Anal Toy Sizing Guide - Sizing Info You Need From Butt Plugs to Prostate Massagers

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
When it comes to trying anal toys, you need to use the appropriately sized toy to get the best, most comfortable experience. The perfect anal toy will provide a pleasant sensation of stretching your anus without being too overwhelming or painful. So, today we’ll share our guide on how to measure your body (or your partner’s body) for anal toys; you’ll learn the essential metrics about anal toys and how to find the best one for you. What Are Anal Sex Toys? Anal sex toys are a group of adult toys designed to be used for anal play. These include butt plugs, anal beads, prostate massagers, anal dildos, and other exciting toys that you can use in your backdoor. Each of these comes in simple and sophisticated variants, with models having very advanced features that provide highly satisfying sensations. What Size Anal Toy to Get: Measure Your Anus The short answer if you don't want to measure anything is to get a small, beginner size anal toy, so you won’t risk overstretching your anus to the point of pain or even tearing of the soft tissues. To find the exact measurement of the anal toy, you should start, you can use a simple measuring technique to measure the anus. You can do this by yourself or with the help of a partner; in any case, you will need some lube and a tape measure. Start by relaxing your body and getting comfortable; position your body as you like it; it can be on your back, on all fours, or your side. Add a fair amount of lube to your anus and your fingers, and start inserting one into the anus. For more comfort, push out as you or your partner slips a finger inside. If you are comfortable with one finger and feel like you can take more, then you can add in another one, and once you reach your limit, mark the point of how far the fingers are inserted into the anus. Remove them and measure the circumference by wrapping the tape measure around the widest part. It will give you the maximum circumference your anus can stretch at the moment, so you need to look for an anal toy that is this size. However, you will note that plenty of our product descriptions share the diameter instead of the circumference of the anal toy. So, to calculate the diameter you can comfortably manage, you need to divide the measured circumference by 3.14. Once you know the diameter, you can look for an anal toy that is closest to your measured dimensions. When it comes to the length of the anal toy you can safely take, you can measure this, or you can get an anal training kit that comes with anal trainers in varying sizes. These are designed to help anyone train their anus to take up toys and get used to the stretching sensation. Anal Toy Models There are plenty of different and exciting anal toys for you to try, which is why we made a list of the models you can find in our sex toy store. We also have separate guides on choosing and using different sex toys, which you can check out on our blog, which we urge you to check out. Butt Plugs The seemingly simple butt plug is a perfect anal toy, as it has an optimized shape and comes in so many sizes that fit users of all experience levels and needs. When you measure for a butt plug, make sure you measure the diameter as we explained above, and always err on the smaller side, meaning choose a somewhat smaller size plug as these may feel overwhelming if you are not used to them. Here is what you need to know regarding the anatomy of a plug to select one you'll enjoy: Butt plug tip – the tip of the butt plug is the first to go in, so its shape has an important role. The butt plug tip can be pointed, curved, rounded, or ridged. The pointed tip makes insertion easier; the rounded tip provides an initial stretch and allows smoother entry; a curved tip is perfect for prostate stimulation, while a ridged tip provides extra sensory stimulation. Butt plug body – the body of the butt plug is the section that provides the most stimulation, and here you need to know its insertable length and insertable diameter. The insertable length is the length from the tip of the butt plug to the neck or the part that goes inside your body. It can be small, with a length of 2 to 3 inches; medium, with a length of 3 to 4 inches; large, with a length of 4 to 6 inches; and anything over 6 inches is considered an extra-large length. You also need to know the insertable diameter or the diameter of the butt plug at its widest point. It is a more important metric for satisfactory use. The diameter is the length across the plug, while the circumference is the length around the plug, as different product descriptions may include these two metrics. We prefer using the diameter metric, and based on this, there are extra small butt plugs with a diameter of less than one inch, which are the best beginner-friendly models. The small butt plugs have a diameter of 1 to 1.25 inches, medium butt plugs have a diameter between 1.25 to 1.5 inches, large butt plugs have a diameter of 1.5 to 2 inches, and anything with a diameter of over 2 inches is considered extra large. Butt plug neck – the neck connects the body of the butt plug to the base, and this part sits on the anal sphincter. It keeps the anus stretched, and depending on the design of the butt plug, this size can be long or short and can be narrow or thicker. There is no right or wrong design, as it comes down to personal preference. However, we must note that a butt plug with a longer neck can be more easily positioned and removed. Butt plug base – the base is part of the butt plug that sits outside the anus, and it has a flared shape to prevent the plug from traveling inside, as it has to have a significantly wider size than the body of the plug. The base can be circular, square, heart-shaped, elongated, or T-shaped. While it serves to prevent the plug from getting stuck inside the anus, you can use the base as a handle to insert or remove the plug easily. Please check out our butt plug sizing guide and also our guide on how to choose a butt plug, where we outline all the particulars about butt plugs. Please note that we favor butt plugs made from body-safe materials like glass butt plugs, silicone butt plugs, and butt plugs made from stainless steel. Shop All Butt Plugs ===COLLECTION=== Butt plug material – the material the butt plug is made from also has an important role, as glass butt plugs tend to feel more intrusive, while silicone butt plugs are softer and more pliable. We don’t recommend you buy butt plugs made from porous materials, but if you do this, use it with a condom to protect your health. Extra features – there are various butt plugs today, some with a simple design and some with advanced features. There are jeweled butt plugs that add sparkle to your booty play, weighted butt plugs, tail butt plugs that are perfect for people with animal fetishes, inflatable butt plugs, and there are vibrating butt plugs that, on top of stretching your anus, provide satisfying vibrations. Anal Trainers Anal trainers are anal sex toy kits that have toys in increasing sizes that are intended for anal training. These usually come in graduated sizes - a small, medium, and large model that you can use to get into the world of anal pleasure. No need to measure here also, as the anal trainer kits come in several sizes that work great for people with little on no experience in anal play. Please check out our guide on how to use anal trainers for more detailed information. Shop Anal Trainer Kits ===COLLECTION=== Inflatable Butt Plugs We list the inflatable butt plugs as a separate entity because these anal toys are designed to provide a highly intense sensation as they stretch the anus. Please note the size of the inflatable butt plug before it is inflated, as this is the size you'll be inserting, and the size of max inflation, and remember that these are not for beginners. These do this by inflating to a much larger size than they initially start with, thanks to a unique inflation mechanism that you can control via a simple squeeze bulb. Of course, there are also automatic inflatable butt plugs, and we invite you to check out our guides on how to choose an inflatable butt plug and how to use an inflatable butt plug, where you’ll learn so much more about this exciting sex toy Shop All Inflatable Butt Plugs ===COLLECTION=== Anal Vibrators The anal vibrators are anal sex toys that have internal vibrating mechanisms and provide much more than simple stretching of the anus as these have internal vibrating mechanisms that also vibrate and provide extra sensations that many enjoy and even crave. Please follow the simple measuring guide as you would measure for butt plugs, as most of the anal vibes are shaped as butt plugs. We have a complete guide on how to use anal vibrators to expand your sexual horizons. Shop All Anal Vibrators ===COLLECTION=== Anal Beads The anal beads are specially designed anal toys that use beads strung together that you use to stimulate the anus and enhance the sensations, mainly when you extract them mid-orgasm. Many people also find the rhythmic stretching and relaxing of the anus intense and pleasurable. You don't need any special measurements for anal beads, as you only need to consider the diameter of the beads - a great thing is that you don't need to insert the entire bead string inside, as you can go at your own pace and add as few or as many beads as you are comfortable with. We prepared complete guides on how to choose anal beads and how to use anal beads that we believe will come in handy for anal beads beginners. Shop All Anal Beads ===COLLECTION=== Prostate Massagers The prostate massagers are anal sex toys designed for prostate owners. The prostate or P-spot is a point that, when properly stimulated, provides intense sensations and is a highly pleasurable, sexy activity. Use the same measuring technique we explained above; you can also engage in prostate massage where your partner uses their fingers to touch the prostate and you can measure that length to find out what size prostate massager to get. There are multiple prostate massager models, and we have complete guides on how to use a prostate massager and how to choose a prostate massager. Shop All Prostate Massagers ===COLLECTION=== Anal Douches The anal douche is a specialized bulb that allows you to rinse the rectum, which can help you put your mind at ease when you wish to engage in anal sex. The way this work is by squirting warm water into your rectum and expelling it, rinsing fecal remnants and leaving you feeling cleaner, and making you feel more comfortable during any anal play. You don't need to measure anything here also, as only the tip of the bulb goes into your anus; but you do need to consider the design and choose what works best for you. Please check out our guides on how to choose anal douche and how to do an anal douche. Shop All Anal Douches ===COLLECTION=== Final Words Getting the correctly sized anal toy is crucial for anal play, as the proper size toy will lead to a more enjoyable and satisfying experience and will also reduce the risk of injury or discomfort. Please don’t rush, listen to your body, and always prioritize safety and communication.

Anal play is wonderfully exciting and, when done correctly, deeply satisfying. The best way to start with anal play and experience the exquisite stretch is to get a butt plug.

Thus, our experts have created the following guide on butt plug sizing, and here we discuss how to find the ideal butt plug for you. What Size Butt Plug Should I Get?

How Much Are Anal Beads?

by Kate Miller on Jan 07 2026
Anal toys are fun and exciting and can be a great way to explore your sexuality and open new avenues of pleasure. Here we’ll talk about the price of anal beads, as we find these to be fun, exciting, and very interactive anal toys. What are Anal Beads? Anal sex is exciting, and many enjoy the overwhelming sensations it brings. There are various anal toys for different anal play; one of the many is the anal beads. Anal beads are a string on which many balls of incremental sizes are placed and meant to be moved up and down to increase the sensations on the anal muscles. Anal beads are a safe option for anal play, as they are specifically designed with a flared base that lets you hold them firmly so they don’t slip inside. Unlike these, some dildos not intended for anal play don’t have a flared base and can get stuck inside the bum. Shop All Anal Beads ===COLLECTION=== Anal Beads Price The market is full of various models of anal beads, and their prices range from $10 to $200. The price depends on the model, the materials, the features and the manufacturer. For example, some anal beads have a vibrating feature, which is more expensive than regular anal beads. The higher quality materials used, the higher the price of the anal beads: the best ones are made from silicone, glass, and metal. There are various models of anal beads; models with smaller size balls are for novice users. The beginner models are usually silicone as they are flexible and won’t hurt sensitive places. Experienced users can also use larger silicone models or use glass or metal anal beads. There are vibrating anal beads for ultimate pleasure, but they are recommended for experienced users of anal toys. We also have app-controlled anal beads that allow extra customizations. Please note that you must add a fair amount of lube when playing with anal beads. Depending on the type of material, you can use a water-based lube with silicone anal toys. If you opt for glass or metal anal beads, then you can use any type of lube you want. Anal beads were refined through the years, and you’ll be impressed with the available options on the market now. We have an excellent selection of anal beads in our store, as well as a broad range of other exciting sex toys to spice up anyone’s sex life.
