It Had To Happen ...

Steampunk bondage!
Source: Vidcap from the horror film "Hidden 3D." Apparently a mad scientist has developed a machine that can extract addictions from people by (waves hands wildly about) and the addictions live on as mutant monsters because (rolls on the floor gibbering madly). One woman gets the idea she is the mother to the monsters and decides to extract a mutant from the woman wearing the gag. The IMDB reviewers just SAVAGED this movie, it sounds like they wanted their two hours and their self-respect back for watching it. So don't watch it, but say, lovely steampunk style mutant extractor they've got that poor woman bound and gagged in, eh?

Chained and Gagged And In The Closet

...it was about this time that Sophie began to realize that coming out of the closet would be a lot harder than she thought it would be ...

Image is a vidcap from the 1969 Italian soft-core sex flick The Laughing Woman with gorgeous Italian actress Dagmar Lassander spending some time in the closet. They've only now started making them like this any more ... in the mainstream. You don't see a lot of strap gags on film even now, much less hogtied suspension with a head harness and a leather kink suit. Sweet!

From the Lurid to the Turgid

She was turned into a Sex Slave on the Rue de Montmartre by ruthless French human traffickers who got her hooked on escargot!”

In my article on Second Life Gor, the imagery and the text leaned heavily toward Gor, because that’s what I like. But as I tried to make plain, you can go ANYWHERE with the DiD imagery you like in Second Life, because there ARE no rules about sex and bondage, and because there’s a large kink community outside of Second Life that provides lots of non-Gorean bondage imagery. So I’ll lay on a few examples from time to time, like this lurid Lifetime-style sex slavery image. Of course, the Lifetime Channel would never go for imagery this naked … and that’s ANOTHER reason Second Life rocks.

Public Bondage In Second Life

"What do you mean you can't dance when you're hogtied? What kind of paga slave ARE you?"

So I haven’t updated my blog in a couple of days and I thought I’d explain why: Second Life Gor FREAKING ROCKS!!! That’s why! I can’t BELIEVE how good it is. So I wrote an article with pictures and arrows and everything to demonstrate why Second Life or something like it may well be the future of the Internet. Movies, television, books, message boards, (ahem) blogs -- they all pale before the glory of Second Life Gor!

An Offer So Good We Aren’t Willing To Make It!

“Ever wonder why people can never seem to lose weight from doing crunches, even when they buy products like the Ab Flapper and the Crunchinator? It’s because they’re not doing them right. To lose weight, you have to have the special balance and discipline imposed by doing crunches while naked, gagged, collared, cuffed, and strapped down to a cot. Do that and your belly will shrink so fast you'll think you're wearing William Shatner's corset, even though you're not! And we at Bondagerotica are glad to offer you the Gag and Cot Crunch Set for a low, low, price -- a price so low we’re not even willing to tell you what it is. Or how to buy it. It works and it’s OURS, dammit!”

Plazabound

It was a town so dull that even the slave girls were bored by their punishments.

The thing that‘s really nice about "Plazabound" the artwork above, is its smooth combination of strong sexual bondage imagery with the mundane.

Of course, the first thing that catches your eye in the artwork is the hot (in every sense of the word) naked woman standing chained to a post and gagged.

A great image, but not an exceptional one in and of itself. What makes this image exceptional is the background. The woman in the image is bound in a sun-drenched public plaza, so you know she’s hot and thirsty -- but the other people in the image are either ignoring her or (most likely) mocking her.

A damsel in distress she might be, but you also suspect she might be a slave girl or a criminal (perhaps a whore receiving a deeply ironic punishment for public indecency). Whatever she is, she is she’s part of the normal institutions of this society. The nuns and the priest ignore her. The two clothed young women look on, one with her hands on her hips, her mouth open … you can almost hear the searing mockery she directs at the slave girl/criminal/whatever.

Now, that’s telling a story with an image. Would that filmmakers understood the power of such imagery to add rich layers of depth to any scene. For example, both of the Gor movies would have seemed a LOT more Gorean with just the addition of a few gagged, naked slave girls chained to posts around town. In fact, just about every sword and sandal or sword and sorcery movie made since the 1980s could use some images like this.

In the near future, a post about a real-life image very much like this one from a modern day non-bondage event held in the US every year.
