WHAT IS A BALL GAG AND WHY SHOULD I GET ONE?
BDSM ball gags are adult sex toys that can be made from leather, silicone or rubber, and are strapped into a person’s mouth to prevent them from speaking. Gag toys are used to silence the wearer and encourage them to submit to their dominant partner.
While a bondage gag toy prevents someone from speaking, they can still make noises such as moans and grunts. Wearing a ball gag increases a person’s sense of vulnerability, while also providing the non-wearer a feeling of control. If this is how you and your partner like kinky play, ball gags could be exactly what you are looking for.
HOW TO SAFELY USE A BALL GAG
BDSM gag toys can enhance the feeling of a power dynamic during couples’ play sessions. They are completely safe to use when worn correctly, and open up a world of possibilities when it comes to oral play. Here are some steps to ensure you use a ball gag safely:- Choose a Comfortable Gag: Ball gags are available in different shapes, sizes and materials. Choose one that feels comfortable for you or your partner.
- Communicate with Your Partner: Decide on safe words and signals that can be used to stop the act without ruining the mood. As the gag wearer won’t be able to speak, it’s important to choose a non-verbal safe signal.
- Fit the Gag: Make sure the gag wearer is comfortable with the fit of the toy prior to engaging in any BDSM activities.
- Combine with Other Toys (if applicable): When you’re ready, experiment with other BDSM sex toys, like nipple clamps, bondage collars and kinky handcuffs to spice up your routine.
If you are the ungagged partner in a BDSM roleplay situation, never leave the gagged person alone, especially if they are tied up or do not have full use of their arms. Similarly, look out for your partner to communicate the safe signal and remove the gag if gestured to. Keeping an eye out for one another makes the act of using gag toys all the more enjoyable.
Gag toys should be washed after each use, using either warm soapy water. Sanitising with boiling water periodically will also help to kill bacteria left on the toy. It is not recommended to clean ball gags using sex toy cleaners, as these may leave cleaning chemicals on the surface that are then ingested at next use. Make sure the ball gag is completely dried before storing it away for its next fun use.
BALL GAG FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A ball gag is a round ball that is held in place in the wearer’s mouth with a strap that goes around their head. The ball has been created to fit behind the teeth, keeping the wearer’s mouth open but disallowing them to speak.
The most popular ball gag, described above, features a ball that fits behind the wearer’s teeth in their mouth to prevent them from speaking. There are other types of sex gags such as O-ring ball gags, also known as open-mouth gags, which restricts mouth movement but allows them to breathe while giving blowjobs, and wiffle gags which have holes in them to assist with airflow.
Depending on the reason for use, a ball gag is a common BDSM prop that allows the user to experience physical restraint and give up control, distinguishing power dominants and submissives. Another common reason why ball gags are so appealing is because they tend to depersonalise the wearer. This plays into the kink of humiliation, which can be a turn on for both dominants and submissives.
While ball gags can be immensely fun toys, there are some instances where they unfortunately cannot be used. If the gag wearer is suffering from a cold, sinus infection or is displaying any other symptoms of a compromised respiratory system, they should not use the toy. Doing so may make it difficult for them to breathe, as many ball gags do not allow the wearer to inhale or exhale through their mouth.
People with a sensitive gag reflex are advised to start with a small, breathable version of the toy to see if it causes them any discomfort. If you decide that a ball gag isn’t for you, there are still a variety of bondage sex toys that you can experiment with to ensure your BDSM fantasies are fulfilled.
BDSM gag toys come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Here are some of the various types of bondage gags available on the market:
- Ball Gags: The most common type of gag toy, featuring a rubber or silicone ball and an adjustable strap to wrap around the wearer’s head.
- Bit Gags: Featuring a bar that fits horizontally between the wearer’s teeth, bit gags offer more breathability and are recommended for beginners.
- Lip Gags: Lip gag toys completely cover the wearer’s teeth and feature a mouth expander to allow your fantasies to run wild during the gagging session.
- O-Ring Gags: O-ring gags include a mouthpiece for the gagged partner which restricts the movement of the mouth and allows for other spicy activities to be performed while gagged.
Ball gags are usually made from rubber or silicone. These materials are body-safe, non-toxic and have been designed for oral use. Some gag toys use materials such as plastic, leather and latex to provide a different sensation during use.
Ball gags should be cleaned thoroughly after each use, and sanitised to remove bacteria. First, wash with soap and water to clean the toy, then use boiling water to kill any microorganisms on the surface. Allow the gag to dry fully before using it for any further kinky play.
While ball gags are all about the fun, safety should also be a priority during BDSM play. Here are some tips to ensure your bondage kinks are explored with your partner safely:
- Communication: Ensure you are both aware of a safe signal to remove the ball gag if the wearer becomes uncomfortable.
- Breathing: Make sure the gag wearer is able to breathe comfortably through their nose. Avoid any activities that require strenuous breathing from the wearer.
- Comfort: Confirm that the wearer is comfortable with the positioning of the toy before you start. It should not be worn too tightly, or cause any pain during use.
- Duration: Avoid fatiguing the wearer with prolonged use of the gag.
- Supervision: Never leave the gagged individual alone during bondage play.
BDSM gag toys feature adjustable straps, usually made of leather, silicone or fabric, to allow the wearer to remain comfortable during bondage play, regardless of their facial characteristics.
