Containment (Caging / Cells)

Containment bondage involves confining someone within a restricted space such as a cage, cell, closet, or purpose-built bondage furniture. Unlike direct bodily restraint, the person may have some movement within their confined space.

This form of bondage emphasizes psychological restriction over physical restraint. The inability to leave a defined space can evoke powerful feelings of submission, vulnerability, or even security. Practical considerations include ensuring adequate ventilation, comfortable temperature, and a way to release the confined person quickly if needed.

About the category Bondage

Bondage involves consensually restricting a partner's movement using rope, cuffs, restraints, other materials, or even just mental (by command/suggestion). This practice can range from simple wrist ties to elaborate full-body harnesses and suspension.

The appeal lies in the physical sensation of restraint, the visual aesthetic, the psychological elements of surrender and control, and the heightened sensations that often come with restricted movement. Safety considerations include maintaining circulation, having emergency release methods, avoiding nerve pressure points, and regular check-ins with the restrained person.

Bondage can be practiced as a standalone activity or combined with other forms of play, making it one of the most versatile and common elements in BDSM.
