National Bondage Day

National Bondage Day explores the themes of trust, power, and boundaries within the BDSM community. Far from being about pain, bondage is often an exercise in deep communication and total trust between partners. This lesson explores the power exchange—is it possible to be free while being bound? We explore the psychology of the rope.

Speaking Discussion

  • Why is trust the most important ingredient in a relationship where power is shared?
  • Is bondage a form of art, a form of play, or something else entirely?
  • How do clear boundaries (like a safe word) make a person feel more free to explore?
  • Is society's view of BDSM still based on movies like 50 shades of grey, or are we more educated now?
  • Why do humans find the loss of control so relaxing in a safe environment?
