Hair and throats.

aggressionoutlet:

There’s something to be said about a fistful of hair. Not just grabbing it, but using it to control someone, like a handle attached to someone’s head. It isn’t just because it hurts—there’s a fair amount of symbolism involved. It’s attached to the most important part of someone, or what houses the most important part of them; their brain. The very essence of someone. Of a submissive.

So, you wrap your hand in it. You use your grip to control; to guide. Subtle pain can turn intense, acting as a guiding force in the recipient’s behavior. Turn this way. Look at me. Look at that. Follow. Stay. Don’t you dare do that again. All messages that can be conveyed by the movements of one’s hand.

Of course, there’s also something to be said about a hand around a throat.

Control of someone’s breath can be intensely erotic in and of itself, but there’s more to it than that. The throat is vulnerable. Delicate. For a submissive to bear it shows a certain sort of trust. That trust, itself, can invoke feelings just as intense as the control does, itself.

Suffice it to say that there are few places my hands are more comfortable than around a submissive’s throat. And, I feel, with good reason. That show of trust is almost as addictive as control.
