BDSM / Esclavage
Types of BDSM Toys
...Restraints
- These are BDSM toys that limit your movements. This means handcuffs like the Sportsheets Sex & Mischief Peaches ‘n CreaMe or ropes and bondage kits like the Doc Johnson Kink Bind & Tie Hemp.
- Sex swings and slings also fall into this category. Restraint BDSM toys appeal to people engaging heavily in dominant and submissive dynamics. One party has more power over the other, which is the entire appeal.
Impact Toys
- Playing into the same kind of power play appeal of restraint kits, impact toys introduce pain into the scenario.
- Whips, paddles, and floggers all have different pain ranges. For example, floggers like the Sportsheets Brat leave a stinging sensation while paddles like the Fetissimo Fraternity make for this smacking pain.
Sensory Deprivation
- These are toys that cut off one of your senses, such as sight. For example, blindfolds like Fifty Shades of Grey Sweet Anticipation make it hard to see. Then gags like the Pipedream Products Breathable Ball Gag makes it hard to speak and get you drooling uncontrollably.
- Sensory toys heighten your other senses by depriving you of key ones. So you feel every touch more or react to every sound more.
Electro-Stimulation
- This is a unique aspect of BDSM where controlled electric shocks are used for stimulation.
Since it causes blood to rush in, it can be electrifying to experience. But, this should only be done with toys deemed safe for use like the Oxballs Sacksling-2 Electro Ballbag.

What’s the safest way to engage in BDSM play?
Before you get into BDSM play, it would be smart to do adequate research. Sit in on some special classes or community events with your partner if need be.
Don’t forget to have an honest discussion on your likes and boundaries and set safe words. The first priority is everything is done safely and with consent.
Are there BDSM toys for beginners?
BDSM toys like blindfolds and handcuffs are the best ones for beginners to start with. These toys have a quick-release mechanism, so in case of a tricky situation, you can stop what you’re doing immediately.
For handcuffs, you can start with the Love To Love Attach Me and for blindfolds, go with the Pipedream Products Satin Love Mask.
How do I clean BDSM toys?
This depends on the kind of toy you have. If it’s silicone-made, you can boil it in dish soap and water. If it’s leather, you should wipe it down with antibacterial soap and lukewarm water.
For fabric-adjacent BDSM toys, you can either hand wash them or throw the items in a laundry bag and machine wash them at a gentle cycle.
Is electro-stimulation safe?
If you use a device specifically designed for erotic electro-stimulation, the potential danger is low. This means it should have quick shut-off features and controls for graduated intensity.
Of course, the toy should be operated by an experienced user, rather than a beginner.
Key Considerations While Choosing BDSM Toys
Material: Leather can feel scratchy while silicone feels the softest on the skin. Metal is for those who love the cold touch or even like bruises to some level, such as from the cinch of metal handcuffs.
Comfort and Safety: Your BDSM toys should have adjustable straps and they should be padded so you don’t end up with red and blue marks all over your skin afterward.
Experience Level: If you’re a beginner, it doesn’t make sense to start with ropes, floggers, or nipple clamps. These are all complex items requiring a high level of caution. Meanwhile, cuffs and blindfolds are perfect if as they require minimum expertise.
