Christmas Gifts For the BDSM Fan in Your Life

Next up in our ‘Christmas gift guide’ series we’re dealing with gifts for BDSM fans. Expect sex toys, restraints, impact play… and a couple of fun surprises too.

BDSM Christmas gifts: Rope and restraints

Twisted Monk rope comes very highly recommended by a number of expert (and enthusiastic amateur) rope fans. If you’re buying a BDSM Christmas gift for someone who’s keen on high-quality, nice-feeling rope, then you can’t go wrong with something from Twisted Monk.

You don’t need to be an expert in knots to enjoy a bit of bondage – there are plenty of simple restraint kits on the market, like this Sportsheets neck and wrist restraint from Jo Divine, or this soft velvet hogtie from Lovehoney. Simple ties like this aren’t just good for those who don’t like rope – they’re often much easier to use if you have mobility issues or struggle with dexterity – velcro restraints and clip-on restraints might be easier for you to handle, as well as easier to release when you’re done.

There are lots more simple restraints like this out there, so rather than a specific recommendation for BDSM Christmas gifts, this is just a couple of examples and a reminder that you don’t always have to be a rope wizard if you want to enjoy restraint.

And as an added bonus: rope and restraints are an excellent complement to using the PULSE SOLO ESSENTIAL on your willing and eager submissive. Simply put their penis (flaccid or erect) into the PULSE, and then get them squirming at the touch of a button.

BDSM Christmas gifts: Extreme anal play

According to our friends over at Clonezone, tunnel plugs are slowly becoming one of their best selling sex toys. Fashioned like a standard butt plug with a flared base and insertable length of varying widths, tunnel plugs have one key difference: the hole straight through the middle. Which can be used for sensation, humiliation play, and… well… anything else that might take your fancy.

If you’re buying a Christmas gift for a BDSM fan who wants to push things a little more extreme, a tunnel plug might be right up their alley. Pun very much intended.

BDSM Christmas: The Secretary original poster

Super-fans of BDSM most likely don’t think much of the more recent mainstream break-out 50 Shades of Grey. But we know for a fact that many harbour a soft spot for Maggie Gyllenhaal’s classic “The Secretary.” So if you want to impress an arty BDSM lover, why not pick up an original poster for the movie? It’s a genuine collector’s item, ya know.

BDSM Christmas gifts: unusual impact implements

If you’re buying for a BDSM fan who likes getting beaten (or doing the beating), chances are they’ll have a few of their favourite impact-play toys already. Floggers, canes, paddles: whichever ones they prefer. But if you want to surprise them with something unusual, there are possibilities. UberKinky sells a carpet beater that wouldn’t look out of place in a Victorian domestic scene. If you want something a little (OK a lot) meaner, then the Misery Stick – a very thin plastic mini-cane – makes an excellent stocking filler. MollysDailyKiss has a limited number available for UK folks.

Found what you’re after? If you haven’t, don’t worry – we’ll have more Christmas gift guides for him, for her, and for everyone in the future.
