So what is
Edge Play ?
Its more about getting to edge, your journey to the edge, what you do when you get there,
do jump or run ?
That moment of truth tells a lot about you, what you can do, the things that you thought
you could not do but can, the light at the other end of the tunnel, the panic, the
buzz, the high, the exhilaration, the sense of achievement, the relase and
then the deepest calm.
The edge can be small or large or even ultimate. As you reach one summit you can see
the next clearly from the one you just conquered. The Edge may be many things. The first
time that you have been fucked, fisted, eaten shit, passed out whatever they are all rites
of passage, challenges that you confronted and passed.
It would seem that once you have been there and done that there is nothing
else would do. This is a typical result of SM burn-out, and is not uncommon for those of
us well experienced who just don't get any thrill out of all the predictable stuff. There
comes a point where you need something to get the heart pumping. This is typical of other
kinds of rollercoaster thrill seeker.
Edge Play is just a way of making SM all the more REAL. |

 This is
where you have learnt to let go!
The only way that I could cope with it was to accept death, then
everything else was ok.
You develop a special relationship with your Master, and you really give
yourself over to him. For sure the fear rushes through you, and the SM, the control
is very real. You often feel very 'alive' and very drained after the session. The snag is
that you need to know what you are doing, to take every reasonable precaution.
Notice in this picture how the collar has a quick release to it, as the
bag can get very slippery with condensation, lube and a panicky slave.
A large part of the skill of the Master is to 'simulate' the Danger than there actually is
- so the slave is not aware of this - the effect for the slave is the same, and the Master
has greater flexibility. You might also want to explore Mind Games and Psycho-Dramas with
this. |

This can be a
risky business. This is where you take every increasing risks, with the 'Oh fuck, I have
really done it this time' factor comes in. It is not good to do solo edge play if you are
in a relationship (would not stop you of course), as your lovers does not want to find you
dead, as that is ultimately the game that you are playing.
Since you want the thrill, of risking death, but not actually wanting to
die, it is worth considering these precautions.
Learn not to Panic, you have to be in control of yourself. Panic and you
are dead. This can be easier said than done.
You might put yourself into auto bondage with a noose around you neck and handcuff your
hands behind you, the key drops to the floor and bounces out of reach - what options do
you have ?
» Shout out ?
» Pick up the key with your toes ?
» Find an additional way to support yourself ?
Many Bondage guys get a thrill out of the 'Bondage Challenge' that
Hudini had. Part of it is planning ways out, looking at all the options, within the
time frame that you have.
Did you set up a emergency escape ?
Like the Cleaner comes at 9am in the Morning, your flat mate is due back at 17:30,
assuming they do not get distracted.
This has the added 'thrill' of the humiliation as your straight flat mates see you in all
your perve gear as you beg him to untie you.
Ensure that a friend has the key to your apartment, that it is possible to even dial the
phone with your nose.
It is so easy to do 'Crazy things' when your cock is pumping, so move
temptation out the way.
One form of 'bondage' is the need to keep wanking. That is the rest of
you can be tied up real tight, and yet the only hand that is free is the one that is
wanking you off, and that is not letting go of your dick, is it.
However all this said, you can starts chipping way at these for added
risk, constantly cheating death. There are plenty of stories of famous/average people who
pushed just a little too far.
Is it worth doing that to the one you love ?
You have to consider given all the risks - is it worth it ?
How far are YOU going to go ?
And yet that lucky escape you had the other night, now when you think
about it is still really exciting, maybe it was not so bad, now no other cum is good
enough, thinking about it makes you horny, then you do it again, maybe not as far as last
time, till the next time.
It is best to think of Edge Play as that which adds the spice to life.
Like with any spice you add a pinch for the zest - it is not a meal in itself.
Its your call... |
