A Peek into Breast Bondage

Very light forms of breast torture, or as some refer to it, tit torture, are practiced every day all over the world, probably even by you.  Extremely gentle forms includ pinching or nippling on the nipples or firmly squeezing the breasts.  However, breast bondage is typically a fair bit more intense, involving various acts of inflicting pain on or tying up the breasts and nipples.  Although this form of BDSM is usually perceived as being performed on women, men's nipples are also very easy targets for torture.  Some forms of breast torture involve caning, piercing, electricity and cutting, although this list if far from complete.

Breast torture has been used throughout history, much in a non-consensual, torture setting, used to extract confessions from women, such as being a witch.  However, here I'm going to discuss breast torture in an erotic light.  Around 300 B.C. you could find information on pinching, biting, whipping, etc... of body parts in the Kama Sutra, as long as it was consensual.  There were parts that even focuses on breasts and nipples.

In the more 'enlightened' form of breast bondage, bothe the dominate and the 'victim' enjoy the entire experience, although for obviously very different reasons.  The intensity and length of the sessions is usually dependant on the subordinate player, or sub.  Rules and limits are always set in advance and a safe word is put in place, the safe word is used by the sub when things go to far or when she starts to feel uncomfortable.  Some form of breast bondage is commonplace, this includes the use of nipple clamps, pinching, biting and so on, however there are some women who enjoy much more extreme sensations when engaging in breast bondage.  This more extreme version can include a large amount of intense pain, which is why some women enjoy it so much, subs often say that they experience a sort of euphoric state, due to the large amount of endorphines and adrenaline that is released during a session.  The dom on the other hand gets his or her enjoyment from something entirely different.

The sensations that the dom can experience range through all five senses.

The visual of seeing the sub's breasts tied up or clamped or put in any painful position.  Watching as they bulge and become discolored.

The feeling of crushing her breasts in the dom's hands, feeling the breasts squeeze between his or her fingers or the feeling of pinching the nipple strongly.

The smell of the victim as she sweats from the pain, or the smell of the hot wax as he or she pours it over the swollen nipples.

The salty taste of sweat on the tortured breasts and nipples.

Listening to the moans and groans as the dom tortures and punishes the woman's breasts and nipples, for many this is a very powerful sense.

Most BDSM play, breast bondage being no exception, is based on living out the more intense fantasies that many people experience.  With the addition of many different sex toys and other bondage products that are now readily available, everyone, in the privacy of their own home can now safely engage in BDSM play of all levels.  Some of the bondage gear and products used are:

Nipple clamps - these are typically used on the nipple itself but can just as easily be used on any part of the breast.  Nipple clamps range from fully adjustable, gentle and padded clamps to those nipple clamps with teeth  or those that are made to stretch the nipple.  Weights are also used, they are often attached to a chain that connects the two clamps to add extra pressure.

Flagellation toys - in addition to clamping the nipples and breasts many enjoy their breasts to be slapped in some way, common products for this are whips, canes, paddles and your own hand.

Rope - not only is rope used to tie down the sub so you have unrestricted access to her breasts but it's used to tie the breasts themselves.  When wrapped around the base of the breast (with full safety consideration and know-how) it can be used to cut off some circulation, causing discoloration and bulging.

Needles - usually used in more extreme breast bondage, needles are used to pierce the nipple, often comletely through and out the other side.

Temperature play - Burning or freezing the nipples, often used are lighters, ice, hot wax, etc..., quickly switching from one temperature extreme to another will cause a very intense sensation.

A final note on BDSM, breast bondage is but one small part in the entire BDSM spectrum.  The intensity can range from gentle with very little or no pain all the way up to incredibly painful and even physically scarring.  There are many social web sites on the Internet if you would like to explore any of BDSM's fascinating features.
