Before I continue, I thought I'd take this opportunity to explain some terms and props used in the world of BDSM. I won't be going into too much detail since it's a vast and complex world that has filled books (look them up). This is to purely help those who may not get some terms I'm using better understand what I'm putting across.

I'll be using my own words as I've come to understand and learn through some research efforts to shed some light on the topic.

First of all, as I'm sure we all/most of us are aware, BDSM is an acronym which stands for:

B - Bondage

D - Discipline/Dominance

S - Submission/Sadism

M - Masochism

I chose to go with the Bondage, Discipline, Dominance and Submission because S&M is kinda complicated even for me and I didn't wanna be extreme about it. So let's get to it!

The main terms I'm using are Dominant/Master[def. :  the person of power or authority/control in a Power exchange relationship  who practices some form of domination, whether it be physical, mental, emotional, spiritual domination, or a combination.] and Submissive[def. :  a person that gives up some degree of authority and/or control to a dominant either all the time or for the duration of a BDSM scene.]

The practise of BDSM is, as opposed to common misconception, designed to cater to the pleasure of all parties involved. For example, a punishment is not only meant to create pain for sadistic purposes. A punishment may be necessary when in a power exchange setting, the Submissive fails to follow protocol or acts in a way that the Dominant deems insubordinate as per the parameters set within the relationship. Punishments in BDSM come in various forms, starting from such methods as whipping or lashing, to the more tame kind where the Submissive is deprived of some perks that come with sex(e.g. willful ejaculation), or, in cases where BDSM is in a domestic setting, the punishment inflicted upon one can be in the form of doing house chores or such.

Participants/practitioners of BDSM do so through consent --either verbal, or (as we may have learned from awkwardly watching the movie, Fifty Shades Of Grey)non-verbal, where there is an actual physical contract involved. I'm given to understand that signing contracts is not always required but rather a way to have clear and established ground rules; words used to address each other, agreed upon conduct, safe words, disciplinary actions, secrecy, etc. It can be important in an S&M setting where bodily boundaries are pushed beyond what some people will never understand. Other times, it can be that where there's a Master/Slave dynamic. [In this Fic, I'll use the term 'Sir' when the dominant is being addressed and, although I'm not using the 'Slave' angle, I chose to include the term 'Master' when the Sub is addressing his Dom because I think it sounds really nice, don't you?😊]

As you read, you may find parts where you think the treatment of a person is unfair or "mean" but please keep in mind that BDSM is not only a physically impactful but that it's an emotional relationship. The dominant is always mindful of the Sub's safety and emotional well-being. Everything he does is well-thought-out and he is the person that cares for the Sub most above everyone. Emotional abuse does not come into play!

Props and kinky modes of dressing and synonymous with the BDSM play. This is normal. It's mainly to add some spice to the entire experience. 

Some articles of clothing may be worn as part of a role play. For example, a sub may dress up a a kitten so that the dominant can play the role of the kitten's owner. In instances where there's a Daddy-Little boy dynamic(usually where there is a significant age difference and the two choose to adapt those roles), the submissive will often dress up as, let's say a teenage boy, and act childish to please his daddy(be informed, Daddy-Little boy dynamics are not for the purpose of satisfying/depicting predatory nuances. It is an actual aspect of BDSM, a real relationship where the Daddy is there to take care of the emotional/intellectual/physical needs of, advice and act as the guiding light to their much younger partners.)

Props coming in a plethora of shapes, sizes, makes and models --you honestly can't grasp the extent to which there has been a manufacture of equipment designed solely for sexual pleasure! 

I've only touched on so few of those in this fic, just enough to pass my point across and to not overwhelm you over what is what.

To help, I'll now add pictorial explanations of what those are and what they look like --although I'm quite sure that a sizeable number of you all already know what these are. And for those who don't, you now will(I am really hoping that there are no underage children still here at this point.)

1. Butt Plug.

They come in various shapes and sizes, some with a vibrating function, some without. Some, such as this one, can be remote operated using a phone. Plugs can be worn either within the privacy of one's home or in public for those daring enough to have a vibrating object teasing them in public and being able to keep a straight face, lol.

2. Cock Ring.

Cock rings are another fun way to add that spice during sex. What they do is restrict blood flow to make the erection appear larger, to make erections last longer and to delay ejaculation for extended pleasure. I chose this make(leather) because it's what I use in the book but they do come in different designs and makes. There are metallic and plastic ones too, others with a part that is worn around the cock and the balls as well.

3. Leather Harness.

I'm not gonna go into detail on this because it's quite self-explanatory. It's sexy! It's also what I has Saint wear... do with that what you may😉.

4. Leather Suit/Cat Suit.

It's-- yeah.

5. Leather Sling.

That's all, I presume. If you came across something that you didn't understand would like me to ass/explain, please feel free to leave your questions/suggestions in the comment section or my private messages if you're shy.

I hope I helped someone with this short and simple article. You can now move on to the next story whenever you're ready☺.
