Can say from experience that handcuffs in carry-on luggage will be seized by airport security. Leather restraints with buckles are fine, though. :D

That's exactly the info I wanted. I was thinking leather would probably get through. Good to hear confirmation.

Although, with TSA YMMV. On my way to an international fight I was sitting at the gate when I realized I still had my 3 inch pocket knife in my pocket. Went through the full body xray, got a pat down and everything. I just put it I'm my pocket that morning out of habit and accidentally smuggled it through security. I was actually pissed because I liked that knife and didn't have any choice but to dump it discreetly in the trash rather than risk customs with it. I've never had a bag search at customs but I'm sure it would have happened that time if I hadn't dumped the knife.

Back home from 1996 until around 2005 I to frequent the local "alternative club". Prior to 1990s I was a metalhead and when Nirvana hit the scene the music I loved disappeared from the US. I found refuge among the goth/industrial crowd. A lot of their events took place at an club called Man Ray (now a 3 story condo damn gentrification) in Cambridge MA. From about 1997 until 2000 I use to make chainmail jewelry, and various leather goods, restraints, collars with a friend of mine. Man the stories I could tell. Taking sweaty money that a transvestite kept in their stockings because they had no pockets. The 50+ couple who had a spanking session every week would sit on the couch across from the vendors table. Good times.

I tend to want to fall on the Kink side of the coin, but I fail in that most of my partners 98% of them are very vanilla. I've got a huge interest in Kinbaku, but finding someone who'll let me tie them up is not easy. I've actually been thinking about getting some MDF and building a "mannequin-like-thing" so I can at least practice so that when I do find an interested party I have the experience I need to do it.

I think you are the first Japanese person I've ever heard call it close to it's real name which is of course "Baskin Robin's". Everone else seems to call it "34 Flavors" or something crazy stupid like that...

If you can find partners who are curious about restraints, there are ways to let them ease into it...dip a toe in the water, so to speak. "Harry Potter ropes" (I always have a bunch in my pocket...or wand!), self-release restraints etc. I have found that some women can move from very cautious curiosity to full-on enthusiasm pretty quickly using that sort of approach.

The thing is customs would not have had any reason to part you with your knife anymore as when you reach them you are already out of the plane and not trying to get into one.

I once had a friend (cough) to realise he had bullets in his pocket when he was already sitting in the plane. After the initial shock he realised nobody would be checking him anymore. And to be honest you probably don't want to dump bullets in the toilet of an air plane anyway. So he walked happily through the customs and only later realised that just having them in your person is punishable in that country he arrived. :eek:

The most heavy duty search I ever had was pre 9/11 going through Frankfurt. I had lots of computer gear in my carry on that resulted in me being taken into the bomb inspection room while guarded by a few big men with automatic weapons.

To keep this on topic, I should mention that there was an adult goods shop inside Frankfurt airport at this time, fairly close to the security check area that sold toys, restraints and so on. I watched a group of men buying giant latex fist toys and then get in line for security with their shopping bags...

Yes, Japanese people usually don't call it baskin robins but サーティーワン

Since we're on the sub-topic of ice cream, I find myself suddenly re-imagining the scene from "9½ Weeks" where I substitute ice cubes with Baskin Robin's ice-cream (Caramel Ribbon/Strawberry Cheesecake flavor for me!):love: Gives another meaning to going from "vanilla" to "kinky"! :p
Of course, if the sex gets hot enough, we could cook ham & eggs ala "Hot Shots"!:hungry:

I initially voted "vanilla" but then changed my vote to "kinky". I think it depends on the kind of sex I've been having lately :p

Since escorting, I've had the opportunity to meet clients that have challenged me sexually. I've even had the opportunity to tick off many MANY fantasies. I've also had the opportunity to work with true kink devotees who have very patiently taught me about various avenues of BDSM. The more I experiment, the more I want to *keep* experimenting on the regular.

I'm envious. I have to say most guys i meet are quite vanilla and it gets repetitive.

Don't be babe! I did not expect myself to land such a client either. Well technically he was my friend's client but I was very flattered that he liked me around! We were both his dominatrixes. ;) memories of very specific kinks........

I've also experimented with submissions, other forms of domination, foodplay, fetishes, and roleplay. I find it really really fun but sort of a mismatch with my current branding so I can only hope and pray for the next guy who is into fetish and kink to come along.

Don't be afraid to switch things up bit by bit in your personal life too! Doesn't matter if it's a big or small step, the fact that you want to try is already pretty damn great! <3
