With all the talk about goals and resolutions that come at the beginning of the year, I have to admit that while most of my goals are pretty small-time, there is one that I will cop to: I would like to rig at the Armory. Peter Acworth and the gang at Kink.com just turn out the most amazing content, and I have met enough of their employees (Lew Rubens, Madison Young, James Mogul and Claire Adams, just to name a few) to think that the whole place is just chock-full of cool people.
And, it should be added, really hot sex. D/s sex, like they show in “The Training of O” series. I was looking through some of these promotional galleries and was struck by the segment of the “Training of Berlin“. Aside from the hot Michael-Manningesque outfit, they also had used rope and a fucking machine to add a little extra “restraint” to the situation.
I’d seen a simpler version of this kind of restraint device in Jack Rinella’s dungeon – basically a square piece of plywood with what looked like a table leg sticking up from it, a tiny hole (as if for a peg) drilled into the top of the leg. He told me that the technique is to put the dildo-of-choice in the peg, and then into your slave, binding each of the feet to the plywood–and they’re bound. You really don’t need much else, if you’re doing it that way, and you can proceed to have fun with other toys and techniques – as James Mogul shows in one of the preview clips.
If you click that link, notice in the middle of the clip she sort of wiggles a bit, side to side – but it’s very evident she’s not actually going anywhere. This in spite of the fact that they don’t have any rope on her legs (using the fish-on-the-line technique to tire her out…and there is very little I find more enjoyable than a submissive with the rough edges worn down, open and ready for…ahem. Sorry, I was reviewing, wasn’t I?)
And the neatest thing about the series is the behind-the-scenes bit. Yes, you get to enjoy watching the hot babe actually go through this stuff…but then you see her later, dressed, wearing her glasses, talking intelligently about the experience and you realize this is not just a hot babe, this is a person, going on a personal journey and taking us along for the ride. For sapiosexuals like me, this is the ultimate voyeuristic turn on (in fact, I’ve often said that the reason I date women smarter than me is because it makes it just that much more hot that they are submitting to me…).
Probably why people like Melissa Gira are always my ultimate unrequited crush objects…
Anyway, enjoy The Training of O. It’s like Laura Antoniou’s books come to life, and that’s got to be something worth seeing…
