Gags are used to muffle speech or noise during bdsm & bondage play. No gag completely blocks the ability to make sound. Simple gags are made by tying a scarf around the head or by using sticky tape.
Do not use cloth into the mouth, because the cloth will expand with saliva and can choke a person.
The most common gag is ball gag, which has a rubber ball on a leather strap or metal chain. There are gags that use a rubber horse bit. These can be used for pony girl play or as a gag that allows a person to bite down hard (a bit gag might be used in combination with spanking, paddling, or whipping). There are gags that include a penis head, usually made of leather or rubber. Most gags have a single chain or leather strap that fastens at the back of the head.
There are gags that are designed to be locked into place, as well as gags with mutliple straps. Some masks and hoods have built in gags. Make sure that the gags used do not completely fill the mouth, as this is a choking hazard. A gag will always cause saliva to flow, so make sure that the person can either swallow the saliva or that the saliva can freely flow down the face.
When attaching anything around the neck, pressure on the front of the neck can lead to unconsciousness quickly, as the carotid arteries go right to the brain, so be aware of these dangers. Likewise be careful with gags or things fixed in the mouth, they restrict breathing, they can also trigger a gag reflex, which could result in choking if the wearer can't remove the gag out.
Our leather gags are designed to be removed quickly should an emergency arise. |
