Bondage sex is a form of BDSM where one person ties up their partner in a sex position. Sexually arousing for some, as the exchange of power is exciting, and the helplessness of being bound allows some people to really let go and enjoy themselves.

Bondage is a great place to start. First of all, you and your partner should discuss your boundaries: which of you is willing to be tied up and/or tied down; how much pressure you’re into; and pay attention to your partner’s body language during the act, too, and ask them how they’re doing if you think they look uncomfortable. Finally, remember that you don’t need to hog-tie someone to reap the erotic rewards of restraint.

For those who like Bondage, this is a healthy sex. As long as two adults have an agreement on what they are doing, it’s not a problem. In addition to strengthening your communication skills across the board, those who practice bondage with their long-term partners can often experience a deeper sense of trust.
