Cuff it baby! 5 sexy ways to use handcuffs

Let’s get naughty! It could be that you’re a fan already, or maybe not quite (yet), but for most people handcuffs play a major part in their sexual fantasies. Surrendering yourself completely to another person – or taking complete control over someone else – both options can be pretty sexy! To give you some inspiration, we’ve listed no less than 5 exciting and enticing ways to use handcuffs!

1. By the wrists 

By far the most used position and probably also the first one that comes to mind when you think of handcuffs. The person who’s being cuffed, is on their back on bed and is cuffed to the headboard of the bed by the wrists. You need two cuffs for this.

2. Above the head

A variation on the first position is to tie your lover with their hands above their head. With this variation, you do not attach their wrists to the bed, but you tie their wrists together while they place their hands above their head. This variation gives a bit more room to move than the first position does. If you want to add even more room, you could choose to put a bondage chain between the handcuffs too.

3. Doggy style

Let’s be honest, isn’t doggy style always a good option? Endless variations are possible with this go-to position. Sit on hands and knees and then let your wrists be fastened together on your back. You give up control this way, because you can’t lean on your hands anymore. Your partner could even hold the piece between the handcuffs like reigns. You are in for a wild ride! 

4. A step further

Do you think this is too soft and are you ready to take things a step further? Then use two sets of handcuffs. Let your partner lie on their back and don’t use the handcuffs to fasten their wrists together, but instead fasten their wrists to their ankles. In this way, your lover has limited room to move. If you want to take it to the next level, you can also choose to work with four sets of handcuffs and fasten your partner to the bed with both wrists and ankles. Or vice versa, if you dare. 

5. Extra kinky

Warning: this position requires a safeword. Do you want to go all the way with your lover, and do you think it’s incredibly exciting to relinquish complete control… Or are you in the mood to be in control of your partner this time, then you can use a hogtie. A what? A hogtie! With a hogtie, you can fasten the handcuffs and ankle cuffs together. The person who surrenders is on their knees or lying on their stomach. In this position, they can’t really move. This can be a quite tiring position so some muscles might build up considerable tension. That’s why it’s important to decide on a safeword beforehand. Just to make sure that you can both get intense pleasure from this intense position.

As you can see, using handcuffs can be very arousing, and above all exciting. Really good to experiment with if you want to add just that little bit of extra spice!
