Bondage: Difference between revisions

Some scenes may involve bondage that is completely inescapable, requiring the assistance of a second person (a dominant partner) to apply and undo the restraints to the submissive. If the dominant partner becomes incapacitated (e.g. due to a medical emergency), this could result in serious injury or death to the submissive.

Disclose details about the scene to a trusted third-party and ask them to physically intervene or call emergency services if the dominant/submissive does not check in by a certain time. Here are a few suggestions for how to do this.

=== Pre-scene preparation ===

Discuss limits, medical conditions, and safewords before the scene begins. Bottoms may be less communicative or nonverbal once they are in sub space.

* Does the bottom have any allergies? Jute/hemp, latex, etc can cause allergic reactions.

Keep the keys of locks used in an accessible location during the scene. Color coding of differently keyed locks may help speed up extrication.

For any bondage wherein a bottom might need to be cut out of bindings, have a cutting tool handy. Do not use knives, razors, or exposed blades. These can cause serious injuries. Some good options for cutting tools are:

=== During scene ===

Note: Nerve compression might have no sensation at all, and only be evident in loss of movement. It is different from circulation issues, which might feel like the "pins and needles" tingly numbness of a limb falling asleep. The bottom might feel like the tied limb is a bit cold or moving more slowly. Nerve issues will most likely present in isolated areas of the limb, for example, an icy feeling specifically in the pinky, or an inability to lift the wrist.
