Wide Open Position

The Wide Open Position immediately stimulates the mind with its sensuous body alignment and complete access between the thighs.

The person being bound should lie on their back to enter this sexual position. Once there, they draw their legs as far back as possible by putting their arms around their calves and bringing their knees up to their shoulders. The forearms can then be wrapped around the calves using the bondage technique of your choice. In the example above, bondage tape is utilized.

More about the Wide Open Bondage Position

At first impression, the Wide Open sex position appears to be an erotic experience. This is a bondage lover's fantasy because of the open legs, the extreme position, and the easy access between the thighs.

However, the same factors can also make it challenging to accomplish. Many people don't find this a comfortable (or even feasible!) position, and entering the Wide Open position requires great flexibility. Before trying the Wide Open Position, the bound partner should specifically regularly practice their Happy Baby position and pancake splits.

We strongly advise extending for the Wide Open position, even if it's recommended before many kinky situations. This will be a deep stretch for those who can manage it, and the wiggling during the scene will likely create cramping in unwarmed muscles. Warming up the body and muscles beforehand can help avoid the unpleasant experience of untying someone because of a charley horse.

Ways to modify the Wide Open position

No matter how much we change the Wide Open position, the recipient must still be flexible, but there are several simple techniques to lessen some of the stress points:

  • Leave the arms out of the equation. Using rope (or cuffs and tethers) to tie the legs rearward towards a bondage point above the bound person's head is an alternative to attaching the arms to the legs. Just pull the legs back to their comfortable stretch. By doing this, the chest and arms will be less involved while allowing the same access between the thighs.
  • Reduce how far the legs are stretched backwards. Even bending the legs is an option! This will provide a wide-open posture with similar access between the legs without deep stretch, but it may remind you more of a Happy Baby yoga stance.
  • Use cuffs instead of bondage tape. Another degree of flexibility is added with bondage tape, which requires both limbs to lie against one another. Attach the separate ankle and wrist shackles instead. This will lessen the force needed to fold the body by enabling both limbs to move farther apart.
  • Use a wedge-shaped sex furniture, like the Liberator Wedge, underneath the hips to reduce the strain on the lower back. Though it could hurt their lower back, some people might be able to complete the Wide Open stretch. This is a useful wedge.

It's acceptable that not everyone is a good fit for the Wide Open position, even with these changes! There are hundreds of different sex positions that can help you connect with your partner and enjoy yourself without causing you to suffer from a torn muscle for weeks. This is the goal of bondage and sex.

Playing in the Wide Open Bondage Position

The world is your oyster after the bound individual is comfortably in their Wide Open position (or perhaps painfully, depending on your aims). Because Wide Open is spread, everything between the thighs is readily accessible and visible.

Because of this, the Wide Open position may be ideal for anal or vaginal sex as well as for huge sex gadgets like wand massagers or penis strokers. The upward spread angle of the Wide Open posture can readily expose the area to a light source if you require light to make your kink (such as play piercing or other specific kinks) come to life.

As you play, try not to put any weight on the legs of the bound person. Inadvertently applying more pressure to the thighs might increase the stretch and put more strain on the lower back. It can be difficult during sexual activity, so try to keep as much weight off the tied person's body as you can.

The Wide Open posture is ideal for breast play or nipple clamps since it allows easy chest access.
