why people like bondage

Some people are pretty kinky when it comes to their sex lives.

Some people ... well ... they aren't.

Neither choice is right or wrong or good or bad.

They are just choices, and you need to make the one that fulfills you sexually — to heck with what anyone else might think about it!

But some kinks are easier to understand than others.

If you aren't a fan of BDSM, then you might have a hard time understanding why people like bondage.

Keeping an open mind about kinky sex will help you be more accepting of the sexual choices other people make. 

To help you on that journey, here are some reasons why people like bondage that will help you see that even "normal" people could find this kink compelling.

1. Bondage makes you feel secure.

Like, literally.

If you consider yourself an average Jill, and bondage has piqued your interest, it makes sense! 

Unlike other kinks, bondage inherently promotes a feeling of safety. 

Either you are tied up securely and able to fully savor the sexual experience, or you're doing the tying.

In either case, control and security are built into the beauty that is bondage. 

2. Bondage changes the power dynamic. 

A lot of so-called normal people like bondage because it's an escape from their daily life.

At work you might be an assistant, bearing the brunt of your boss's workload and bad attitude. 

You spend your day taking orders.

But with bondage, once you're in the bedroom tying someone else up, you're finally the one in charge.

Talk about a hot escape! 

3. Bondage removes guilt from sex.

People struggle with guilt around sex for many different reasons.

Maybe it's coming from a strict family, or maybe a religious upbringing.

Whatever the reason, you've come to associate hot sex with guilty thoughts.

If you are tied up and "unable to escape", though, it removes that guilt, which lets you revel in your hottest fantasies guilt-free! 

4. Bondage can be beautiful. 

The Japanese art of rope tying (called Shibari) is undeniably beautiful to behold. 

Some normal people like bondage because it's a beautiful art form, in addition to being a sexual kink. 

In that respect, bondage can be a fun hobby from an artistic perspective. 

Some people like knitting scarves, others prefer a more naked form of arts and crafts. 

5. Bondage requires trust and can build trust, too.

In order for an intimate relationship to be successful, it needs to be built on trust. 

If you're exploring bondage with a partner, it means you're building trust.

Who doesn't want to achieve a deeper form of intimacy with their partner WHILE enjoying a totally intense sensual experience?
