Gags are a popular tool in the BDSM community. They can be used for various reasons, including sexual pleasure, power exchange, and sensory deprivation. In this article, we will explore the world of gags and everything you need to know about them.

What is a Gag?

A gag is a device that is used to cover or put into someone’s mouth. It is often used in BDSM play to prevent the submissive partner from speaking or making noise. Gags can also be used to obstruct breathing, but this is not recommended as it can be dangerous.

Types of Gags

There are many different types of gags available, each with their own unique features and benefits. Here are some of the most common types of gags:

Ball Gags

Ball gags are one of the most popular types of gags. They consist of a ball that is placed into the mouth and held in place with a strap or harness. Ball gags can be made from a variety of materials, including rubber, silicone, and leather.

Bit Gags

Bit gags are similar to ball gags, but they have a different shape. Instead of a ball, they have a bar or bit that is placed into the mouth. Bit gags are often used in pony play or other animal roleplay scenarios.

Ring Gags

Ring gags consist of a metal or rubber ring that is placed into the mouth. They are designed to keep the mouth open, which can be useful for oral sex or other activities that require access to the mouth.

Panel Gags

Panel gags are a type of gag that covers the mouth completely. They are often made from leather or PVC and have a panel that is held in place with straps or buckles.

Inflatable Gags

Inflatable gags are a unique type of gag that can be inflated to different sizes. They are often made from rubber or silicone and have a pump that is used to inflate the gag. Inflatable gags can be useful for people who have trouble finding a gag that fits properly.

How to Use a Gag Safely

When using a gag, it is important to do so safely. Here are some tips for using a gag safely:

• Never obstruct someone’s breathing with a gag.
• Choose a gag that fits properly and is comfortable for the wearer.
• Establish a safe word or signal that the wearer can use to indicate distress or discomfort.
• Check the wearer regularly to ensure that they are not experiencing any discomfort or pain.
• Never leave someone alone while they are wearing a gag.
