I got to do some zippering tonight with Lydia. There was also some bondage, electrical play and scratching, but as I sit here admiring my marks, it’s the zippering that has left the biggest impression. Either I’m getting wimpier or the clips are getting tighter, because ouch. I think I made some interesting noises during the scene, but absolutely nothing that’s going to win me the stoic masochist of the year award.
In honor of our play, here’s a great action shot of some flying cord and clothespins. This is one of the very few images I’ve seen that capture a zipper coming off. I love that you can still see the skin reacting to it. This is Deviant Kade with Lorelei Lee for Men In Pain. You can see a wide angle shot of Lorelei about to pull the cord right here.
Zippering is probably one of my top 3 things I fear. The clothespins hurt pretty back anywhere that isn’t nipples or genitals, so even one on those little bits of skin I am in more pain than I can imagine. Trying to get a bunch on while I am nearly in tears would not be fun, let alone ripping them off. One thing I want to try though is using a slow motor like a rotisserie to slowly pull them off (they gotta be in a place I can tolerate while waiting for them to come off).
It always amazes me the different levels of pain you get from different positions on the body. Even just different parts of the torso can feel different in terms of sensitivity.
I’ve actually done a rotating thing with zippering. It was on a padded spanking bench that was mounted on a turn table. Normally it’s used for positioning someone properly for a good beating but it also works well for zippers. Rather than pull the zipper the domme just gave the bench a good spin. It wasn’t all that slow however. I’m not sure what would be worse – the fast yank or a slow gradual pull.
