If you’re in the US, happy tax week and happy belated Easter to everyone else. I hope you found something naughty in your easter basket, like these eggs from Stockroom. Locally, week one of the music festival Coachella has come to a close. Week two is gearing up and local Los Angelenos are more than pleased for the respite in traffic as everyone heads to Indio for the festival.

We’re very excited to announce our upcoming launch party in Los Angeles on June 10, in collaboration with Lovely Fate Events. We are planning an incredible play party and I hope some of you can join us. Find out more details and ticket info here.

Speaking of Stockroom, the famed Los Angeles BDSM equipment vendor is moving! A new location has yet to be announced but we are eager to see what happens as their current space has served as not only a store front but educational annex for many years. Of course you can always search their massive online store for anything your kinky little heart desires.

In a story we brought to your attention last week, the Drupal developer who was outed as kinky and subsequently told to resign from a project has received insurmountable support from his colleagues. They believe the way in which his private business was aired and the backlash from the company to remove him was in fact unfair bullying. Enough with the kink shaming, already!

This article from the Huffington Post does a nice job of explaining “littles” to the mainstream public. This particular little identifies as queer but the principles are the same.

Buying Guide – Bondage Mitts

By 1 Comment

Bondage mitts… oh what fun! OK, unlike cuffs, collars and floggers, these aren’t part of your every day BDSM scene. When you bring these out to play, you’ll be making a statement to your submissive. And that is “you might be able to move your arms around, but you sure won’t be doing anything useful with them until I’m ready to let you out”.

For many players, mitts have strong ties to pet-play. That is, where your submissive role plays as a puppy, kitty or other animal.

But mitts can be incorporated in just about any scene. They add an extra element of inescapable feeling to any kind of bondage. With no way to use hands or fingers, the bottom can’t fiddle with ropes or locks, or detach carabiners, leashes or straps. And most importantly, they will know it, which can send them deeper yet down the sub-space hole.

And then, of course, you can construct an entire scene around the mitts. Ordinarily simple tasks, like making a sandwich for you, take on a whole new dimension when the obedient submissive is restricted by bondage mitts. It could be challenging & frustrating for them, and it could reinforce feelings of submission and achievement for completing you instruction. For the Dominant? Pure enjoyment and entertainment as you watch your partner work their way through figuring out an ordinarily simple task.

Sturdy, inescapable and surprisingly well-priced - these are the benchmark in bondage mitts. There is extra padding in this set, so its comfortable enough for your sub to crawl around in. Good for puppy play, or all kinds of fun bondage predicaments. I like the loop on the buckle so it can be padlocked closed. There are few things as sexy as your submissive wearing these and nothing else. All that, and they'll give you a 10% discount if you enter the code "kinkweekly" during checkout.

These mitts are a thinner leather and will hug the hands rather than holding their shape. They also lace closed - and then get held closed with a leather strap over the top. These are a pretty good starter pair and once on, can be locked in place with padlocks.

For the pet-play enthusiast, the paw prints will add a nice touch to these adorable mitts. They are padded and firm on the outside so will keep their shape. On the down side, they aren't pack-lockable and they ship from Europe so take a bit longer to arrive. here.

An unusual take on mitts. These are steel which brings a certain more serious, dungeone-y feel to the play. Your sub will feel very helpless once encased in these. They're heavy! So they lend themselves well to tasks involving lifting arms up, if you want to challenge your sub. Don't piss them off too much though - these things could function as weapons! Also, definitely not cheap.

Tips for mitts:
  • The cuff part around the wrist is what holds it in place. Like with any cuffs, be sure that it’s not so tight as to interfere with circulation. Check back regularly. Assuming they aren’t too tight, they should be pretty safe for extended wear.
  • Thicker, padded mitts will hold their shape and be more comfortable for the wearer to crawl around on their hands.
  • Mitts can be an alternative to a chastity belt – male or female, it sure is difficult to get yourself off with mitts on. Having said that, they aren’t exactly discreet for wearing in public. And they won’t be able to do many household tasks (including typing), so productivity will fall dramatically.
