Meet Madame Tigress

Please tell us a little bit about yourself – How would you describe your everyday vanilla life?
I’m a manager for a clothing store. I’m currently dating a pretty little sub who’s also my girlfriend. We’re not living together just yet, but we’re taking it slow and just having fun for now.

When did you first realize you were into bondage?
I accidentally saw my mom and dad having sex when I was a kid. It involved a piece of clothing and my mom’s wrists. Funnily enough, it didn’t give me strong daddy or mommy kinks. Just the general idea of having your partner tied up that really got me.

How you best describe yourself and why? Your choices are: Dominant, Submissive, Switch or Fuzzy Rainbow Unicorn.
I used to switch before finding out that Domming is where I’m most comfortable. I like the control it gives me.It’s also very satisfying to watch your partner fall apart in your hands in pleasure.

Do you feel that your desire for bondage is more physical or emotional? (please elaborate)
Both. Not only do I love handling the equipment that you can use for BDSM scenes, I also love how much fun it can be. It’s really a cathartic activity for me and let’s me get off some steam from the daily stress of life. After a well -deserved session, I always feel more relaxed and happier after the scene.

Were lovers accepting of your interest in bondage?
Not all of them, but there are some who were open to trying it out. Especially when you’re already comfortable with each other and are willing to try something new to spice up your sex life. But no one ever really went deeper with me until I met my current girlfriend.

Please briefly describe your first bondage experience.
It was with a girlfriend in my early college years. After some discussion on how far we wanted to go with sex, we ended up agreeing on a blindfold and a remote-controlled vibrator. No tying up involved yet since she was a bit nervous and wanted her hands free just in case. But all in all, we had enjoyable sex that day and tried a few more kinky stuff after. What was your best bondage experience?
The best I’ve experienced was when my sub and I went out with her wearing a really powerful vibrator. I was in control the whole time wound up teasing her the whole day. She was begging for us to go home but I knew that she can still do it. When finally got us home, she was in tears and had the most wonderful time paddling her for all the times she came while we were out.

What is the most creative safeword you have ever used?
The most creative I’ve assigned would be ‘kimchi’. But so far, my partners didn’t feel the need to say them. I’m very thorough when doing a scene and I’m always aware of my partners and their status while in play.

What do you feel is most important about the experience of bondage?
The bonds you create along the way. There’s nothing like trusting another person to your pain or pleasure. Or having someone give you that privilege.

What is the best advice you would give to someone just starting out with BDSM?
Communication is key. Before and after a session, communicate with your partner so you can make the next session all the more enjoyable.

What is your favorite gear, toy or lingerie item from sub-shop.com and why?
The lightweight wrist suspension cuffs that I bought a few months ago. I love it when my sub doesn’t have any more power to stand up right, it paints a really pretty picture. It’s also great that I can have access to her front and back unlike when I have her on a bed.

What is the one sensual fantasy you haven’t lived out yet that you are excited to try?
Electro-stim. My sub’s a bit apprehensive right now, but we’re researching stuff so we can try it out safely.

What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?
Chicken feet! We went to a legit Korean restaurant once and the had chicken feet there. We tried it out and it was spicy as hell. Really weird texture but quite tasty once you’re used to the idea that it’s chicken feet you’re eating. Apparently, they’re a delicacy in Korea.

What is Satan's last name?
Satan’s last name? Maybe something that sounds old, like Elderflower, but it’s too pure for Satan, I think. So maybe something evil like Satan Hellfire, or something.
