What is a Bondage Gag?

|Bondage gags are popular BDSM toys that are designed to muffle or silence a submissive lover. Most BDSM gags consist of a ball or bit mouthpiece which is held in place by adjustable straps.

Many couples find the idea of using a bondage gag intimidating at first, but they’re completely safe and easy to use! Ball gags are fun to use in many different bondage scenarios, as well as individually to add a sprinkling of kink to regular sex.

Why Do People Like Ball Gag Bondage?

Bondage gags are most commonly used in BDSM play to explore dom/sub dynamics. A BDSM gag allows the wearer to act out a submissive-like role which is the perfect introduction to ball gag bondage.

As well as being visually erotic for the dom, the silencing of the sub also means that they can moan and groan as much as they please without fear of being too loud - a win-win situation.

Some larger bondage gags almost exclusively limit air flow to the nostrils, restricting oxygen for a more intense orgasm.

Types of BDSM Gags

Bondage gags come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and styles - each offering different levels of restraint. It’s important to choose a BDSM gag suited to your own experience level to get the most out of your play.

We’d recommend that beginners try a ball gag with a smaller mouthpiece to start with. It can take some time to get used to the feeling of being gagged, so it’s always better to start small before progressing to a larger BDSM gag.

If you’re already experienced and want to take ball gag bondage play to the next level, you could try an open-mouth sex gag. These gags are designed to slot over the wearer’s lips to pry the mouth open, which leaves the wearer silent yet willing, and allows the dom partner to do as they please… This makes for perfect use as an oral sex mouth gag - whether that’s for deep throat blow jobs or creative cunnilingus.

If you want to experiment further with ball gag bondage, a dildo gag is the ultimate step up. Dildo BDSM gags feature a phallic gag attachment which can either be deepthroated by the wearer or used to penetrate a partner when flipped the other way! These dildo bondage gag toys are not for the faint-hearted but can be extremely exciting to experiment with, and they certainly give a new meaning to giving head.
