Bedtime bondage

Dee and I met six years ago, and it took me about three months to gradually introduce her to bondage. We were married four years ago, and soon after we were married, I instituted our oldest bondage ritual...bedtime bondage.

Every night since the summer of 2000, whether we were at home or in a hotel or friend's house, Dee has slept in bondage. The only nights she hasn't been bound are when we've been on red-eye airline flights.

Dee chats several hours a day, and when she talks about being bound for bed, she gets a lot of questions about exactly how she is tied. She mentioned to me that a gallery showing some of the ways she is bound would be interesting for her internet friends.

First, let me re-iterate the safety disclaimer from our entry page: we have extensive training in bondage, and long experience. Many types of bondage that are easy for half an hour are dangerous overnight. You have to make sure that circulation is maintained, and since we're both asleep, there's no one to check. Permanent nerve damage can result from loss of circulation for an extended period.

Here are some ways that don't work overnight. These items and positions feature in a lot of fiction about bondage, but they are too extreme for real life:

A hogtie is too extreme Can't sleep in an armbinder Spread-eagled doesn't allow enough movement Ball-gags are only for an hour or two Most common, just cuff the wrists together Attachment points - collar, nipples, clit and labia piercings Simple and effective, chain the leg to the bed You know she'll be there in the morning A leather hood, the ultimate sleep mask This was just a two hour nap With hands locked in mittens and a ballgag to prevent arguments Dee hates the rubber sack...she doesn't like being covered in lube Piercings chained, head hooded, and hands taped The Darlex sleepsack, taken in September 20 with Spandex hood and builtin blindfold, plus a breather gag Straps prevent her from rolling off the bed Common, leather posture collar, leather wrist cuffs, blindfold Closeup of wrist cuffs locked together With wrists locked together, she has only three choices, hands overhead, hands on stomach... Or hands out, either wrapped around a pillow or just stuck out Mick often gives Dee a couple of quick orgasms before bed Mick likes to keep Dee's hands out of the way when she's getting her bedtime orgasms. Time to sleep, about 11:45pm Actually asleep, about 12:45am Still sleeping, about 2:15am Just before the alarm clock goes off, about 6:05am Another sleepsack night This was taken in January 2001 Note Sony Walkman playing ocean wave sounds in her earphones Detail of Dee's breather gag, from Devonshire productions Less severe on the jaw than a ballgag, Dee can wear it all night. Closeup of fur-covered handcuffs Hands cuffed in front to sleep...she can't sleep all night with her hands cuffed behind her back Leg cuff, gag and blindfold Gagged, blindfolded, hands cuffed halfway between her neck and her triangle piercing Closeup of chain locked to her triangle piercing (gauge 4) Very severe sleeping position Flannel sheet covering half her body With her hands cuffed to a chain, she can't pull up the sheet Already asleep 20 minutes later Snoozing soundly at 11:10pm As soon as she was asleep, I unlocked the pussy chain, So she wouldn't hurt herself in the night, so she wouldn't pull out her ring Still sleeping at 12:30am No sleep walking here Same position at 2am Sleeping beauty At 3am she had rolled the other way Mick and Dee just before the 6am alarm Mick's view every night 30 seconds before the alarm Morning stretch after her release Suggested by Master Tim, rubber bands attached to triangle and minor labia The second rubber band allows for a lot of stretch Toes tied so she can't straighten both legs She fell asleep quickly, but I removed the elbow cuffs so she could roll on her side to sleep Dead to the world, she didn't wake when I removed the sheet She kept the band stretch all night, and was very sensitive for her morning screw
