I had my reservations about this stuff, I mean can you really bind a person up with a roll of stuff that sticks only to itself? Does this stuff really only stick to itself? Well the answer to both questions is yes!

Pleasure Tape isn't really tape at all, it's just a long roll of PVC ribbon. PVC has this nice quality of sticking to itself (if you have ever worn a pair of PVC leggings and crossed your legs you know exactly what I am talking about) without grabbing everything else. Just to be scientific about it I grabbed a piece and wrapped it around my hair like a pony tail holder, it worked great and then slid right out without so much as tugging a single strand, awesome! Next test was to actually wrap a piece around my wrists, it was nice and snug and when pulled off there was now peeling off half my skin. Excellent!

Because Pleasure Tape only sticks to itself it can be used safely in places duct tape cannot. Would you like to dress yourself/your sub up in a homemade thong? Go right ahead, no sticky side to tear at delicate skin down there when it comes off. Even better because this stuff is PVC it is SHINY! It looks great when turned into a halter or homemade corset. And guys no longer have the body hair excuse!

I know I haven't answered the one burning question, does it REALLY tie a person up. The answer is, provided the person doing the binding knows what they are doing. Duct tape is super easy to use as a bondage tool because is sticks with a strong adhesive to the "victim" and everything else it touches, making it hard to slip out of. Pleasure Tape doesn't have the same strength of grip, but if you or your partner know how to restrain someone well, then this stuff is just as good.

I have seen a number of reviews that suggest Pleasure Tape is substandard for bondage purposes and I do disagree. I have used it a number of times now and there was no way I was going ANYWHERE. It's all in how you use it. Do not think this can simply be wound around the wrists like duct tape and your partner is going to stay put. This stuff just doesn't grip in that way, but if you actually take some time to wind around the wrists then between and around again....good luck. It's all about increasing the friction and giving the Pleasure Tape plenty of itself to grip to, if you do that it will work like a charm.

A couple of asides about Pleasure Tape, it does begin to stretch a little when it begins to get warm so bank on that when using it. We found that if you put a good amount of tension on the tape when applying it to your partner it will stretch less during the night. Also since this is PVC you will find that it does not breathe and you will get kind of sweaty. On the upside, when all the fun is done you don't have to worry about losing some skin when you pull it off and if you are really OCD you can actually wind it back up and use it again!
