Meet Joe S.

How would you describe your everyday vanilla life?

I wear a suit everyday to work for my corporate job. I enjoy fine food, drinks and city events. On the weekends you usually can find me out downtown with my group of friends and upon meeting me you'd probably have no idea I would be into bondage.

When did you first realize you were into bondage?

In high school, there was just something about it that gave me that funny feeling inside.

How you best describe yourself and why? Your choices are: Dominant, Submissive, Switch or Fuzzy Rainbow Unicorn.

Dominant. I like to have influence and some type of control in my everyday life, and it reflects in the bedroom.

Were lovers accepting of your interest in bondage?

For the 1st few lovers it was kind of awkward how to present it, but they were curious and accepting.

Please briefly describe your first bondage experience.

Handcuffs, Bondage Tape, and a lot of trial and error with dormitory beds.

What was your best bondage experience?

I can't say there was ever a best bondage experience. That's why I enjoy it; everything is always different and unique. Bondage really opens people up to you in different ways that vanilla can't bring out, so each experience is special in its own right.

What do you feel is most important about the experience of bondage?

Trust, it’s the most important thing to have when experiencing bondage. It has to strong enough between the people participating to even start off the right way, and though bondage, trust can reach new levels.

What is the best advice you would give to someone just starting out with BDSM?

Start Slow, figure out your comfort levels, always communicate, and enjoy yourself.

What is your favorite gear, toy or lingerie item from sub-shop.com and why?

Too many to list, I have a decent amount of items.

What is the one sensual fantasy you haven’t lived out yet that you are excited to try?

I am actually curious to see how the submissive side of bondage feels because it would be very against my nature, I suppose that is why it peaks my interest.
