They say that fact is stranger than fiction don’t they. However, that all depends on the fiction, of course. I’ve read some pretty strange fiction in my time and written some too and it is difficult to see how it would translate to the real world. There are some pieces of fiction, though, that can easily be brought into real life situations and they could prove pretty interesting.
I am referring, of course, to the latest page-turner since Harry Potter, but this to me is definitely aimed at the adult market. Fifty Shades of Grey may not be hailed as the best literary work of art this decade, but it has certainly got people talking the world over.
What is it that makes this less than ordinary book so popular? It’s sex of course. The one pleasure that the government doesn’t tax – yet! Mind you, if they thought we were enjoying sex more, you can bet your bottom dollar they would tax it. The more pleasure you get, the more you have to pay. That’s probably why they don’t have a tax for it yet.
There are a lot of sexual relationships that are, quite frankly, bordering on the mundane. A book like Fifty Shades of Grey helps to show people that there are ways of making the sex process quite a lot more interesting.
For those of you that don’t know about the book (for example, people lost on desert islands with no contact with the outside world), the book dabbles in BDSM, which many believe to be the Dark Side of sex. THAT’S WHAT MAKES IT SO MUCH FUN! The important thing to know about BDSM is that it comes with its own set of deliciously scintillating toys.
You don’t have to be in a dungeon to get the most out of BDSM, there are many different levels of enjoyment. The simple use of a blindfold during sex is a BDSM thing. So is getting or giving a playful spanking. Of course, there are some who enjoy being suspended upside down with an apple in their mouth whilst their Dom/me whips them with a cat o’ nine tails, but it’s all down to personal choice.
Whatever your level of interest (and if you have read the book, there is bound to be an interest), there are sex toys available to either ease you in gradually or take it all on head first. Couples new to BDSM can buy a starter kit, with just enough stuff inside to let you tie and tease. All you have to do then is decide who is going to take charge. The other important thing is to take things gradually until trust has been built up because you need to play safely at all times.
By living out the scenarios you have been reading about (and secretly wanting to experience) you will be inadvertently spicing up your sex life and don’t be surprised if you experience more intense orgasms. Changing you routine makes things less predictable and that has got to be more interesting don’t you agree?
It doesn’t matter about age, looks or size, getting pleasure using BDSM sex toys is suitable for everyone. Once you are comfortable with being blindfolded and spanked, there are a whole load of options you can go for. If your partner likes their nipples being squeezed or pinched, you may want to opt for a set of nipple clamps. If receiving a red, warm bottom from a firm hand turns you on, be prepared to graduate to a paddle, flogger or riding crop, depending on how much you like that kind of chastisement. Placing a collar and lead around your partner’s neck will give them a sense of being ‘owned’ and submissive which means that they are in your hands and frees up their inhibitions.
The sky is the limit with BDSM play and there is a toy for every occasion, from the simple blindfold to electric shock therapy. All you have to do is decide how far you both want to take it.
Enjoy!
