    What is BDSM?

    BDSM encompasses a wide variety of sexual activities and fantasies including bondage, discipline, domination and submission, sadism and masochism. It can range from mild forms of play to intense and challenging activities. It is important that everyone within the BDSM relationship is comfortable and communicates their boundaries and desires to have responsible and enjoyable experiences.

    In addition, it is important to communicate openly and honestly with each other about expectations and boundaries. It is important to respect each other's physical and emotional safety and to always have a safeword to use when an activity goes too far. Using proper BDSM equipment and gear is also important to prevent injuries and make the activities more comfortable.

    It is important to have clear communication with your partner and to work within your agreed boundaries. It is also wise to be prepared by gathering information about the different BDSM disciplines and tools, and to always take the proper safety precautions. Proper physical and emotional preparation is necessary to ensure that you and your partner have a safe and enjoyable BDSM experience.

    For example, some will focus on exploring power relations and role play, while others will focus specifically on the physical aspects of bondage and impact play. It's important to communicate openly and honestly with your partner about what's comfortable for you and what's not, and to work together on finding activities that both of you are comfortable with.

    Below we briefly explain the different disciplines of BDSM:

    Bondage & Discipline (B&D)

    Discipline is a part of BDSM where the dominant partner educates and corrects the other partner through punishments such as spanking, pinching or inflicting pain. Discipline can be used to make behavior changes in the submissive partner, or to punish them for bad behavior. It is important to remember that discipline and punishment in BDSM should always be consensual and the participants should feel comfortable with the activities they are undertaking.

    The idea behind discipline within BDSM is to help the submissive partner better focus and submit to the dominant partner. It is important to emphasize that in BDSM all activities should always be done by mutual consent and in a safe and comfortable environment.

    Domination & Submission (D&S)

    Sadism and masochism (SM) refer to the application and/or receipt of painful stimuli, respectively. Within BDSM, painful stimuli such as blows, needles, electrostimulation or other activities are used to increase sexual arousal. It is important to remember that all activities must be safe and consensual. It is also always advisable to make clear agreements in advance and to discuss a safe word.

    Sadism and masochism (SM) focus on consciously experiencing or causing pain. Within this discipline of BDSM, impact play such as blows, whipping or stimulating with tools is used. If you want to start with this, we recommend this small black leather whip! Sadism describes the tendency to become sexually aroused by causing pain or humiliation to another person. Masochism involves deliberately experiencing pain or humiliation. Communication and respect for each other's comfort level and boundaries is also very important within SM.

    Sadism & Masochism (S&M)

    It is important to remember that pain and humiliation in SM should always be practiced with respect for the safety, boundaries and comfort level of the partners involved. It is also important to communicate and make clear agreements before engaging in SM so that both partners feel comfortable.

    It is important to note that in SM there should always be an agreement on the intensity and type of activities that will be practiced. There must also always be a safe word agreed upon, with which the activity can be stopped when desired. This is necessary to ensure that everyone involved remains safe and comfortable during the BDSM session

    Long-handled bullwhips produce a bigger bang when used. This makes the impact of the whip more intense. Pinwheels have small protrusions that can be rolled over the body for a prickling sensation without causing pain or damage.The pleasure wheel from the EasyToys Online Only collection can be a good option to start with!
