that her husband can kind of feel more at ease with it.

And maybe it's that there's not full on, you know, tying up, but maybe there's just a blindfold.

Maybe there's just, you know, tying hands together or pinning hands together above your head.

There can be elements that are brought in, but oftentimes it's just feeling like our partner understands what we want and cares about what we want and can introduce ingredients.

that allow couples to meet each other.

What if there is one couple I talked to, the husband wanted to have his wife wear a strap on and she just could not get...
