I was 18 years old when me and a friend kind of accidentally went to the cinema to see '9 ½ Weeks' starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Bassinger. My little erection caused all sorts of seat shuffling in a no doubt vain attempt to disguise itself.

I think my friend and I both left quite stunned. We never discussed it again.

But for the first time in my life I had seen somebody else albeit on screen, think it normal to blindfold their sexual partner. My early sexual preferences told me that was the first thing to do to achieve dominance over your willing partner. And now it wasn't just me who thought that way.

But how to approach the subject?

As it turned out a couple of years later, a girfriend sugested to me that we both blindfold ourselves for fun one night. Of course I eargerly agreed but out mutual blind fumbling became a hinderance and I sugested that maybe I take my blindfold off and she keep hers on?

Then I saw her in all her blindfolded beauty...

Since then, I have blindfolded almost all my sexual partners at some point or another. I would say that despite most of them never having tried it before almost all loved it with perhaps only one or two not losing themselves to the experience.
