In a recent game of "Step the Fuck Up," a.k.a. "Ten Fingers," someone said "step the fuck up if you've done bondage." This statement was followed with a player piping in and asking "define bondage." This made me realize that just like "hooking up" and "having sex," the terms we use to discuss our sexual activities are very ambiguous. For example, I consider bondage anything that involves being restrained, including handcuffs and silk ribbons. However, others consider bondage to be closer to BDSM with leather straps and ropes. This may explain why "bondage" is seen as taboo or kinky, because it depends on how "outside of the norm" the activity is considered.
