Product Information

And the decreasing brightness through the grimy window pane that was her only connection to the world outside, informed Amy that Jenny had left her in solitary helplessness for far longer than the agreed four hours. Part memoir, part ground-breaking polemic, it looks beneath the shiny facade of contemporary gay culture and asks if gay people are as happy as they could be - and if not, why. And secondly, with regard to your accusations of my unlawful removal of company funds, I have to tell you that I’ve covered my tracks thoroughly, so there won’t be any paper-trail or damning evidence that will point the finger of blame at me. With her arms held tightly across her chest, she could almost believe that she really was all nicely strapped and secured into the gorgeously sensual leather encumbrance.

Silence reigned during this period, with Jenny simply holding the bottle and scrutinising the slim, bound woman before her; that devious smile never dissipating for a second. Sally decides to use the fancy dress party as a way of dropping a subtle hint that she’s a big fan of bondage, by recreating an iconic album cover. For several seconds there was no reply, but then her friend’s familiar voice replaced the sound of the ringing.I would have assumed that a bondage loving girl like you would relish the prospect of several days in unalleviated captivity. Amy took a deep breath and blurted out - in the same harassed, agitated state that she’d revealed her passion for bondage - the assertion that she knew Jenny to be siphoning off money from the firm they both worked for, and that really she should have gone to her line manager with her concerns, but had decided that there were other ways that the situation could be resolved to their mutual advantage. Ange, there’s a fancy d Nor could she thread her arms through the strap on her chest, wrap her arms around her body, then buckle the belts on the sleeves in their rightful positions, to make certain that her arms remained trapped and inescapable. For fifty years, she has trained to slay wyrms - but none have appeared since the Nameless One, and the younger generation.

With her hands now cocooned in mittens of cushioned leather, her fingers were no longer able to be of service to her. Then there was the short strap on her chest, through which her arms had been passed, that forced her into an incessant hugging of her body, and allowed no leeway to move her limbs in any direction; not up towards her head, or down in the direction of her waist; not to the left or right, or indeed outwards away from her torso.In the words of one of his friends: 'On paper you should be boring, but you're actually quite good fun. Lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, she found herself craving the restrictive yet comforting caress of the straitjacket. In each part, Todd draws on his own experience, stories of those he knows, and interviews with various experts and practitioners. After being left to her own devices, Amy had really started investigating just how restrictive and restraining her jacket could be.
