Ball gags are BDSM gear designed to prevent the wearer from speaking. They typically consist of a rubber or silicone ball placed inside the wearer's mouth, with a strap or harness that secures the ball behind the head. Ball gags are commonly used in BDSM play as a form of sensory deprivation or control. They can enhance the feeling of power exchange between the dominant and submissive partners and be used in conjunction with other forms of bondage or restraint. It is important to note that ball gags should only be used with the informed and enthusiastic consent of all parties involved and that proper safety precautions should be taken to ensure the health and well-being of the wearer. It is also essential to have a safe word and signal to allow the wearer to communicate any discomfort or distress they may experience
There are both physical and psychological reasons to be attracted to spanking as a sex act. Physically, we know that spanking increases blood flow to the butt and pelvic region to encourage arousal. When the sensation is strong enough, it can travel to stimulate the genitals of the person struck. We also know that the impact of spanking stimulates nerves that transmit pain. Those of us with a sadomasochist streak actually enjoy the endorphin rush that comes with pain.
