It varies a lot. The longest mummification session where I have been bound is between six and seven hours. I have been bound over a weekend but in usual play sessions I'm usually bound between 4 and 6 hours.
If it takes between 3 and 4 hours to put you in the bondage do you count that as a time in bondage?
3 or 4 hours? wow... I guess that intricate super ornate bondage must take a while...I've always been interested in getting her tied as quickly as possible...less than two minutes with rope..less than 30 sec with duct tape...I think I could get hands and feet tied in less than 15 sec using police zip ties. PK
I can have you harnessed and hogtied with MFP in under ten minute with "minimal escapabilty". total inescapability...about 20 minutes. Simple harness for the sheer pretty of it...less than five minutes. Cock and ball bondage less than five minutes...but I'm really good at what I do....duct tape and zip ties? bah....it's all about rope for me!
In susupention bondage I usually keep them bound up to about four hours however for me a large factor is creating comfortable binds and safty. I generaly change positions every half hour or less to keep specific areas from becoming too stressed. When I know that a sub is going to be bound for a particulary longer period because of the other stuff that is going on then I use a medical wrap that is skin tight under the bindings to keep the ropes from cutting into the skin although that really isnt much of a problem. In short if its 15 minutes plus I start checking the effects on the sub a lot however I rarely ask if they are okay because you they often cant tell so 100% of the safety and what is going is up to you. I never leave a sub out of site bound and on her own. Not only can it cause an exiety attack in the sub and trust issues but I know with suspention bondage its just too damn dangerous so once everyone is in the dungeon no one leaves it for any reason while stuff is going on period. There is an attached bathroom for any cleaning up that has to be done. When things go wrong they can go wrong vary quickly and in uexpected ways so I consider it the easiest way to loose a sub for stupidity so I treat it very seriously but I try not to let any of it show.
I have found some girls quickly respond to being bound, others take a while. In the end all come around. How long did it take you to achieve that calm feeling?
