Torture Garden TGX

Sometimes two worlds really do collide and, in the course of my business life, I find myself needing to know about fetish fashion.

So, it was quite bizarre when someone in my real world mentioned their newest purchase – a full-length rubber coat.

Naturally, I was not oblivious to the obvious connotations and, during the course of a gentle interrogation came the admission of regular visits to the Torture Garden.

A few hours later, I was presented with a treasured possession.

The dvd entitled The Torture Garden presents TGX.

I have never been to a fetish club. My protected and rather sterilely vanilla life was turned upside down by the sexual revoluation that accompanied my peri-Menopause and my relationship with Ruf. A time where I experimented blindly with the extraordinary desires that violated my mind, body and senses.

Physically and mentally stimulating… but conducted in the privacy of our own bedroom.

TGX is like being a newbie walking through the door of The Torture Garden and experiencing everything that it has to offer. The sights, the sounds – a melange of colours and unexpected noise, assaulting and captivating, shocking and, at the same time, strangely seductive. The onslaught took my breath away and yet I could not turn it off.

I was supposed to be watching the fashion but it was impossible to separate the clothing from the activities. Almost as if a certain look corresponded to a particular type of desire. And the nipple tassles were just to die for. I really could imagine my impressive but oh so impressive teats in those.

Apart from the expected circus and burlesque acts with which I was familiar from visiting Erotica last year, there were many entertainments that were completely unfamiliar to me. Some of the acts were breathtaking, others made me want to look away in horror that people could do such things to themselves or allow others to treat them in such a violent fashion. The piercing, sewing, body art, japanese bondage and medical installations scared the pants off me but I wanted to be able to see more. I was intrigued by this world that was so different to my own.

If you’re curious and want a gentle introduction to the world of fetish that allows you to hide behind the sofa rather than risk the exposure of reality, this is a great place to start.

Or if you just want a great reminder of a fabulous night out…
