To me bondage without sex would be like eating icing without cake!

Sometimes, it is the cake I want.
Sometimes, the icing.
Sometimes the entire dessert menu.



We enjoy BDSM throughout our day and certainly, it doesn't always lead to orgasm or need to.

Sex is always highlighted by something D/s, whether it is simply his not orgasming without permission or my use of mild CBT as foreplay. However, our intense scenes, including bondage, flogging, wax play etc seldom lead to sex unless it is for my benefit i.e. face sitting or masturbating for him.

Honestly, I can't tell you the whys of this, but can tell you it works nicely for us.

Intercourse happens daily and is our special physical communion, but doesn't happen every time we are stimulated. I do believe that this leads to OR is the result of our being two very highly sexually charged individuals and as a couple.....mmmmmmmm

A thought that is formulating as I sit here and type is this: Sometimes, I use sex and orgasms as another "toy," tool or implement of BDSM. Other times, sex is communication and affection. Additionally, it is simply a matter of physical need. Sex can play many roles, physically, mentally, and emotionally and for us, depending on what those needs are, the needs may define and direct the act.

Signing off before my ramblings become too confusing!
