Frequently Asked Questions about Sex Whips & Floggers

What Are Sex Whips and Floggers?

A sex whip - used interchangeably with bondage whip or flogger - is a sex toy used in a BDSM category called impact play, where the name of the game is to elicit erotic pleasure using impact such as slapping, spanking, whipping, flogging, or caning.

Sex Whips vs. Floggers - Which is Better?

A sex whip is a long, flexible and thin instrument usually made from a single strand of leather or rope. At the same time, a flogger BDSM toy resembles a sex toy whip but has multiple strips or tails. The main difference between these two is the flogger's extra strands or tails.

As for which is better, it usually depends on one's preference for pain. A bondage whip has a bit of a painful and heavier effect as it would bring a bitter sting when swung. At the same time, a flogger gives off a more "thuddy" - and thus softer - result when swung similarly.

Doesn't Whipping Hurt During Sex? Why Do People Love Them?

Most people get excited about dominating or being dominated by their partner regarding sexual play. Often, these people get incredibly turned on by mixing pleasure with pain! 

You'd even be surprised how many enjoy getting off when their pain thresholds are at the tipping point while they are all tied up in BDSM restraints! Spanking, whipping or flogging near the genital areas reportedly helps get the blood flowing, leading to more intense orgasms!

Using a sex whip or bondage whip does hurt, but then again, that's the main point of using these instruments! A sex whip toy or a flogger BDSM toy is designed to be used on areas of the body protected by muscles or fats. Still, it's pretty normal to get bruises or even welts after a BDSM play. The pain level may also depend on the type of toy used. For instance, a rabbit fur flogger BDSM toy doesn't hurt, while a single whip can bring a host of biting pain to the recipient.

As always, when it comes to sex and BDSM, there are rules that you and your partner must establish before beginning. Talk about your pain tolerance, safe words, and how the events will go through so you can manage your expectations.

How to Use a Sex Whip Toy During Sex and Bondage?

It's important to remember not to start whipping your partner enthusiastically once you begin - that's guaranteed to kill the mood instantly! As with all good things, the trick is to warm up first to prepare the body, like warming up your muscles by stretching before you exercise.

There are different ways to use a sex whip, and these are in stages. Start by lightly tickling your partner with the whip's tip in their erogenous areas and let them experience soft feathery sensations. 

Next, you can lightly stroke the bondage whip all over their body and spine. Onto their butt cheeks - this is guaranteed to turn them on and will make them anticipate the next step, the actual whipping, or as others call it, spanking.

Lightly whip your partner to get them used to the sensation, letting them adjust to the pain so you can better gauge your next step. Remember to deliver spanks only on the fleshiest parts of the body, like the ass, to avoid painful injuries! And always keep in mind to immediately stop once you hear the safe word.

Tip: Stimulate the spanked areas with your hands or a feather tickler to intensify the pleasure. 

How to Use a Flogger in BDSM?

There are many variations on how to use a flogger BDSM toy. Still, it's generally a "free play" impact instrument, just as long as you don't strike vulnerable and sensitive areas. Avoid areas such as the face, spine, shoulders, neck, and genitals as they can cause serious injury. The back, buttocks, arms, and legs are generally safe areas to flog. While many enjoy having their thighs and breasts (be extra careful in the presence of nipple pinchers) stroked by a flogger.

As with the bondage whip, you can use the flogger to stroke and tickle areas your partner will love, dragging the tails on their skin for delicious sensations. Create build-up and anticipation with your stroking and tickling while choosing your next spot to deliver the spank. In between spanks, stroke and caress your partner's skin to soothe them. As you advance in flogging, you'll develop your own rhythm to this kinky play.

Aftercare and Relaxation Post BDSM Play

One of the most critical steps in BDSM plays is to take care of your partner after your tiring kinky session. Especially when using a sex whip toy or flogger BDSM toy. Take showers or a warm bath to relax. It's also essential to rehydrate, so drink lots of water - and food - too!  

Aftercare is not limited to caring for physical needs but also emotional and psychological. Remember that being conscious of your partner's emotional well-being and happiness is key to having a successful BDSM play.
