Gags

Photocred: @catherinejkim A gag is a piece of bondage equipment that can be used in dominant/submissive play. While it can be daunting, using a gag (safely), is a way of enhancing the roles in a bdsm scene. It creates elements of vulnerability and necessary trust. It also has the added benefit of allowing the submissive to simply enjoy the sensations while not feeling pressure to speak or make sounds. .

A few things to consider before incorporating this equipment is choosing one that is right for you, ensuring that everyone is safe and able to communicate well with each other. Beginners to such equipment should get a smaller ball gag or one that is in the shape of a bar (also called a bit gag)- one that is comfortable and easy to breathe and make sounds with. Choosing a silicone option is also a good call in the way cleanliness. .

Before actually using the gag, safe words and signals should be discussed - as it’s possible that words might be difficult to communicate signals must be established. And after you’re done playing, always leave room to debrief and share your experience with your partner.
