I’ve mentioned before that I am fascinated by pony play and now it’s time for another revealing fact; I am equally fascinated by puppy play.
The thing that I find intriguing with puppy play is the usage of masks that usually covers the face of the submissive. The effect will, in most cases, be that the subs can hide their true self and just immerse themselves into just being a puppy – Leaving their human entity behind.
One place that does some really nice hand made puppy masks and accessories is Rubberdawg.com. High quality stuff with the possibility to get things customized.
Maybe it is hiding some aspects of their true self but revealing others? Surrendering to a particular flavor of submision, or bonding, or play?
These masks, which I had the pleasure of examining at a presentation by Jason of rubberdawgs.com at Avatar Club of Los Angeles. For the SL or other coming-to-kink-via-RP folks, THIS avatar is probably named from the sansrit derived word. This club has earned an excellent reputation for BDSM education and fellowship. From their website http://www.avatar-la.org “Founded in 1983, AVATAR is a unique non-profit organization dedicated to education, fellowship and support among gay men interested in “kinky” or BDSM sexual practices. Avatar facilitates the frank exchange of ideas and fantasies in an atmosphere of mutual respect, free of stereotyped images, roles and judgment… All our events offer a friendly environment for learning about safe, sane, consensual, and fun BDSM. ” IMHO they do not overstate; highly recommended.
