#kennel
Men are important and busy doing important and meaningful things. We, of course are nothing more than pets, caged to be out of the way until we’re needed.
Early on in cunt’s training I would keep it in a kennel while I was away. It has much more freedom now, but the kennel is still a useful tool from time to time.

A cage seems to me to be a powerful tool and potentially a natural stage of evolution in a D/s lifestyle relationship.
Consider the collar. It’s a near-universal symbol of submissiveness in sexuality, the gateway drug of kink symbolism. It’s representative of restraint, but rarely actually restraining. Yes, it operates as an attachment point for leashes, can be an anchor on more elaborate bindings, but in general exists for its symbolism, not its functionality.
Then there is actual bondage. Ropes, chains, manacles, etc. Now we’re getting into functional equipment, meant to hold down, inconvenience, restrict, etc. All very sexy, all very powerful in symbolizing (and actually functioning as) restraint and the power the dominant partner has over the submissive.
The problem with most restraints is one of practicality and safety. They’re good for scenes, for short bursts, but can cause serious health risks or at minimum severe discomfort if used for extensive periods of time. And from a safety standpoint, the dominant needs to be physically present, alert, and careful at every moment to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Then there’s the cage.
Some cages will function like other restraints. Good for scenes and short bursts, but not ideal for long-term use. However, a cage like the one depicted here can be a powerful lifestyle tool that is compatible with long-term use. It’s got enough horizontal and vertical room for the submissive to adopt comfortable long-term poses and a soft surface for long-term rest.
It permits the submissive to experience extreme limitations under the dominant’s control for extensive periods. Notable restrictions on freedom of action and movement, which are powerful symbols of control, combined with the potent symbolism of the cage’s bars. It’s the kind of tool that could be used daily, for hours at a time, reinforcing the mutual exchange of power in a D/s relationship, with little risk.
And it’s hot as hell.
I’ve yet to have the opportunity to utilize one myself, but it’s on the list to acquire and incorporate into a lifestyle routine. I’m drawing blanks on thinking of any other tool or routine that would be as effective in explicitly communicating and maintaining the power exchange in a D/s lifestyle between partners.
Until next time.
Stay classy,
