Stories of Tie Up Games

We’ve had gag snob threads before, but for this I’m specifically talking about engaging in TUGs with someone, not just your preference in photos/video.

If you had the opportunity to engage in a TUG with someone, regardless of which side of the ropes you were on, but they absolutely didn’t want to use gags, is that a deal breaker for you?

I was chatting with a woman and we were seeming to click until I brought up the use of gags. It was a hard no for her. It was a hard yes for me. It’s now looking like we won’t be getting together. It was an amicable enough realization, but I know I just NEED to gag the woman I’m tying up.

It isn’t a deal breaker when I tie my wife up. I enjoy gagging her when I tie her up, but I won’t if she doesn’t want me to. It’s almost certainly a deal breaker when she ties me up. Being gagged is my favorite part; kind of like the cherry on top.

For me personally it's a deal breaker. I have to be gagged while tied up. It's just not the same nor as enjoyable without. And seeing other tug content without some sort of gag kinda reduces the enjoyment for me.

No, as even without a gag you can play. I would prefer a gag, I do when I am tied up myself, but I can live without a gag too if that would be a deal breaker. There are lots of reasons somebody does not want to be gagged (mentally and physical) and I can understand it as I can't handle mouth stuffing, other than a ballgag. So why would I deny somebody else a chance to play because of no gag?

I must have a gag it completes the bondage. And it feels so good.

I would never gag someone who didn't want to be gagged. BUT. If someone tied me up and refused to gag me, I wonder if I could persuade him / her by saying incessant talking, bad singing, gets my song lyrics.wromg, mansplaining the plot of the film.we.are.watching.........

I feel its needed, but I would understand if someone didn't want that.

I do sometimes enjoy bondage videos with the damsel talking back to their captor pre gag, some of that chat can be quite entertaining.

Gags are good, but sometimes I wanna hear their sweet, sweet laughter.

In the unlikely event I was on the tying side, it would be disappointing if they didn't want to be gagged, but I would respect their wishes. The most important thing is that my partner enjoys themselves and are comfortable.

If I'm the one getting tied, I absolutely have to be gagged. I just can't be tied up without a gag. It's basically non-negotiable for me, since I enjoy being gagged too much.

Gags do usually make things better, but I'm not a believer in their absolute necessity.

Sometimes I think it's better if the bound person isn't gagged at first just for something like this. Them getting shut up later is a lot of fun...

I personally love gags and would feel that the bondage is missing something if there's no gag, but if my partner didn't want to be gagged I would never force it on them however If I'm going to be tied up I need to be gagged or I just won't enjoy it nearly as much.

I absolutely love gags but between doing a tie-up without them and no tie-up, I'd choose the former.

Being gagged by someone while you're tied up requires a lot of trust because you're counting on them to pick up the non-verbal trigger signals fast enough if something goes wrong. I can see why someone wouldn't want to be on either side.

It's disappointing for sure but reaching a compromise is better for me than just writing the whole thing off.

Plus, I've recently started finding blindfolds without gags pretty hot, so...

Much as I love gags, if it is a choice of no gag or no tug then I would choose no gag.

I'm a bit ambivalent about using them to begin with, so someone else saying no wouldn't be weird at all.

*shrug*

I would have no issue with excluding them but I would hope that she would take advantage of the fact that she wasn't gagged to vocalize her distress by pleading to be untied and claiming that I wasn't going to get away with this or whatever language suited what the situation lent itself to.

For me having a gag I was nervous off having the first time because of fhe fear of I can't talk. But after trying a cleave gag, I've tried many since and so it's safe to say I love them!! I think a gag makes the bondage complete and it adds to feeling helpless and any moans that escape won't be as loud.
I have done bondage without a gag and that's just as fine for me as long as I have to try extra hard not to make any noise

If you ask me, on the receiving end for one, a gag is a musttttt at some point at least, if not throughout it, the bondage just isn't complete without it. And even on the giving end, gags just are too good to give up imo

Heh, I’m glad a couple more “snobs” like myself turned up.

And because it was brought up a few times, I’d like to clarify. I’ve never gagged someone who was not ok with it. That’s why these limits/preferences are discussed beforehand.

Like many of you, I find bondage to be very lackluster without a gag. I just can't do bondage without being gagged. No gag = no fun.

Agreed got to have a gag.

Subs making gag noises is one of my favourite things about tying them up.

I couldn't agree more. "If she ain't gagged, it ain't bondage" is how I approach TUGs.

I got to remember that saying.

Haha love that more of us Must-Gags are coming out of the woodwork

Definitely a gag snob here. Bondage is not the same without a gag! Albeit ball, muzzle, tape, layered, panel, etc...
