This is how I feel when I *look* at someone wearing a hood. Photos of people with hoods make me pass up profiles automatically, they're obviously into something I can't abide.

Yes, same here - not being able to breathe or to breath my own warm breath is a big panic button for me,sadly! "In order to finish first, you must first finish".....Roger Penske | |

Ohhhhhhhhh, I love my slave in a hood. Rubber, leather or even mesh, it's all good. I'm not even sure why, I just adore the look of them, and in the case of leather and rubber the smell of them.
It's not so much the objectification aspect of it that turns me on, as much as the control. It seems to give me more control because the person cannot see so well as usual, and it makes me far more aware of the ways of restricting their breathing (even if the mouth and nose holes aren't small, a hood, especially a rubber hood, heats the slave up somewhat and tends to make him more breathless Very, very sexy.

I really struggled with hoods for a number of reasons 1) i panic when in enclosed spaces 2) i broke my nose when i was a child and cant breathe well through my nose alone if in a hood with only nose holes 3) I cringe to think what i must look like and imagine its unattractive 4) feel totally humiliated and think the reason someone wants to use one is because they want to cover my face because i am unattractive Ironically i became fascinated in those aspects mentioned above and began secretly buying them for when i did solo bondage but the idea of wearing one during play made me sick to my stomach ! I have tried it with others but was left feeling degraded and wanting to cry because everytime i would play they would use a totally covering hood ..it made me feel horrible . I would say its been only in the last year that i have started to enjoy them but for some weird reason i cant say outloud "hood" and typing that word now makes me shudder because of the negative association , My Dom calls them "Mask" now which i can just about handle . I have a thick leather hood which is tight and only nose holes , lacing at the back and a padlock at the neck . I have found this one to be the hardest of all because i find it difficult to breathe . I have to remain completly calm or else i panic and want to rip the thing from me because i feel asphyxiation (cant spell <----) I have a rubber one also which is a little easier but i still want to squeeze my eyes shut and dont want to look someone in the face . I feel humiliated in a bad way at first but because my Dom kisses me and makes me feel good i can relax into it . He also uses bondage tape and wraps it over and over around my face and head until my head is completly covered bar my nose , with that i can still breathe a little through the layers of bondage tape. It has been a slow exploration but i really do think it depends on who you are with . As a women i need to know that i am still attractive and wanted and not that someone dosnt like the way i look and wants to cover my face. I guess its going to be different for everyone . For me i am fascinated by the dehumanisation , obejectify ( cant spell again <----) . When i wear them now i get turned on beyond my wildest imagination especially if gagged as well . With Dom , LC , he has helped me to enjoy what a hood can do ..make me feel , experience and explore ...because he tells me " it dosnt matter if you wear a mask , it is still you underneath the mask " telling me he loves me is more than encouragement to enjoy a hood rather than hate it

Just a thought, K, have you tried a stocking mask? Similar mental links to objectification and control, but it doesn't restrict your breathing (nor your sight, if you don't use a heavy denier)? Well, not unless other things are put over it, like I did with Nina on NYE.. :devil:

I haven't tried hoods but I would like to. I like being blindfolded when playing as it helps me forget what I look like and enjoy the activities more so I think that to have a hood on would be an extension of that. I also think hoods look hot on people. I like the idea of only my mouth being exposed to be used, basically. I'm not a claustrophobic though so I don't have a problem with being encased in anything. I think for many, the reason they dislike hoods is related to that. There will be an abundant amount of different reasons though because everyone is different. Some will love, like and hate hoods for their own reasons. I like them because visually they look good (not all the time though) and because you can use them for sensory deprivation and all sorts of perverted things like breathplay, facefucking and whatnot. xX Goldie Xx |
