Permanent ankle chains

[Penny_x]

Someone mentioned going up the back stairs of my house with my ankle chains on? It's not that hard, I crawl up or scoot up on my butt, the same way I get down them.

Is there a way to post a photo here? If not I can be reached at: sub_penelope@yahoo.com if anyone wants to see a photo.

Hi Penny,
i just wanted to comment that i've been in hobble chains for about four years now.
the cuffs are closed on my ankles with padlocks filled with epoxy cement. The chain joins through the same locks. Its all non-removable except by cutting off, which my wife says aint gonna happen. my chain is only ten inches long, so i'm pretty restricted in walking and stair climbing is like yours. I was in a six inch chain for the first year, but that proved too tight to go out in much, so we lengthened the new one a bit. i also wear four inch chain steel police type handcuffs also filled with epoxy for permanence. They are in front, but attached to a waist chain with a 12 inch long leader. This mean i can only raise my hands to about straight out from my waist.
Makes it possible to type with difficulty, and do some routine daily duties. Cant
comb my hair, drink, eat or go to the bathroom by myself. Wifey takes me out every day to the stores at the mall, grocery shopping and to restaurants. Of course, i can't drive so im totally dependent on her. At home, if i am not being punished, i am
always tethered with a 12 foot chain to my hobbles so i can't leave the bedroom.
i have to ask permission to be taken to the toilet. if i am being punished, and that is at her whim, i never know why or when, i am chained to a potty chair in the back yard. it lasts a minimum of three hours, but can be much longer. i rquested all this
before we were married. i wear no clothing at home, but when we go out, she puts me in a very tight skirt, tube top (around my arms and all) and a cape if chilly. I wear thong sandles year around. reactions by the public when out, are mixed, many folks know us and think nothing about it now. Others look shocked and stare, but rarely say anything. young women and teen boys are most likely to taunt me and laugh or tease me. Older women are very supportive. Men usually shake their heads and go on. I'm thinking of asking her to gag me as well except when being fed.
I love this very restrictive life style and we have even made arrangements in our wills so if she goes first, I'll have a legal caretaker. I have no desire whatsoever to be free or responsible for my actions nor my own welfare.

much like the "Septum Rings" thread, I see a lot of far-out fetish talk, but very little proof. How about posting some photos of yourselves at work or play in your permanent accessories? without a small dabble of evidence to prove otherwise, I'd say you are all full of shite; a handful of poseurs trying to outdo one another with fantastic tales of sexual fantasy.

As an aside, is this what our advanced civilization has come to? all the sacrifices for freedom, the struggles for liberty? Amazing Grace and the beaches of Normandy? so chavs can solder permanent metal clasps around themselves at their (perverted & mentally ill ) "masters" bidding? The bullshitometer of even the most naive moron on the site has to be off the charts.

Again, I'd be your most intrigued fan and biggest defender if anyone here has the stones to show what they tell....

Dear "I call bs",
some of us live a different kind of life. I have felt the desire to be restrained in the extreme and frequently punished for no reason every since I was about six or seven.
I've had psychological exams and therapy for years without any change. I tried to be normal, but i really prefer this lifestyle! Don't know why, but i do. everyone has theories, no one has facts. I just decided to do what i want and to blazes with what anyone else thinks! That is real freedom. I'll bet i'm happier than you.

thanks for responding! I appreciate your attempt at an explanation.

but my question is still the same: if youre all so happy and proud and bold, why not "walk the walk" and post some pictures of yourselves to prove me wrong?

there are ways to black out certain features, but why would any of you wish to hide their identities anyway?

I hope it is bs but I'm afraid not. I'd hate to see people do these things to themselves.

I don't know how to post a photo here but I did leave me email a bit futher up if anone wants a photo just email me. I have several. My husband/Master insists that I share my condition with others to prove that I am a happy well adjusted woman who just likes to be in bondage 24 hours a day.

Boundboy, I'm intrigued by the idea of a permanent waist chain. My experience with a waist chain is that one's waist is generally at its smallest first thing in the morning, but tends to expand to its daily maximum about 2 hours after evening dinner - difference is around 2 - 3 inches. So a waist chain that fits in the morning will be very uncomfortable by say 9pm, whereas one that is tolerable to weear at 9pm will be rather loose at 8am (though its probably possible to find a size that won't slip over the hips even in mornings). What's been anyone else's experiences with waist chains?

ostrogoth, thanks for inquiring. my waist chain has been on since shortly after i was hobbled and cuffed, about four years now. it is a 3/8" plated chain (like hardware stores sell) nothing fancy. it is locked in place by a medium size padlock filled with epoxy cement to prevent unlocking. my waist is 32" but the chain is secured at 30"
by intent so as to stay tight. I am not allowed to eat more than 1200 calories a day, so i don't really "fill out" during the day. The lock also secures the
12" chain of same size which is padlocked by another similar lock (also epoxied)
to my handcuff chain. we just bought another 12" chain and plan to secure my handcuffs from a looped chain collar around my neck also so that i will be unable to either lower nor raise my hands. I am also going to be gagged with a ball gag and small locking chain around my head. Of course that won't be expoxied as she must be able to ungag me for meals. to the person who said they hate to think people would do this to themselves, well, we enjoy it. is that a bad thing? we don't violate any laws and are careful to not appear in public in a way which is indecent nor offensive. (Well covered, in other words)

BS,
I don't even know if you can, or how, to post a photo on this board. Any ideas?
Also, I am extremely restricted, so i can't do that myself. Wifey would need to
take a pic and post it and she doesn't know how either. we do have several which show full body and some with close detail of my restraints. they are film/prints, not digital, so that may also pose a prob. If you find out, and we can do it, i've got no problem showing off. in fact i think it would be fun. nothing vulgar in them either. none posted would be in the nude either. won't do that. i'd have to be in my skirt and tube top at least. just a note though..you do know photos can be faked also, so that wouldn't really prove anything anyway. might try to get one or two out at a club, etc. for better evidence.

Boundboy, isn't it rather rrisky if your SO goes out shopping, say, and has a traffic accident / medical emergency / is rendered unconscious? As it sounds like you can neither phone for assistance (tether chain) nor even get yourself a drink etc, what if she was away (for abovereasons etc) for several days. Or is there a contingency plan in place for this, like a mobile within reach?

Any new adventures?

Hi everybody.

I've read all of the previous posts and hope that those of you with experience can assist me.

My Master and Hubby has decreed that I will soon be wearing permanent ankle cuffs and I have been assigned to research them. At this time I don't know whether they will be connected (either temporarily or permanently) but, with him, I've learned to expect the worst. Anything other than that is a gift.

Anyway, a couple of years ago I wore several sizes of Eternity cuffs (5/16th inch round steel rod fabricated into perfect circles) on my ankles full time (at least for a while). They were OK if I pulled socks on under them or used tight socks or stocking over them to hold them above my ankle. If I didn't take such precautions the cuffs would drop down over my Achilles tendon and the movement of the tendon would essentially rub away my skin after walking a few blocks. This would happen regardless of how tight the cuff was as the tendon still moves a bit at the narrowest part of my leg. The only relief came when the cuff was large enough to drape over my ankle bone so that the back of the cuff rested just below the tendon attachement point. The only problem with this configuration was that the cuffs needed to be so large that they stuck way out on the sides of my ankles and would clang together when I walked. Even though my boyfriend at the time found my constant clanging "charming" I detested it and didn't like walking with my legs spread apart. The good news is that, since I wore them by choice, I could change them out and experiment at will.

My next attempt was to make oval shaped cuffs so that the cuff still hung down below the tendon attachment point but didn't stick out so far on the sides. I wore these permanently for over a year and the only problems that I had were in hot weather when sweat caused the cuffs to stick to the tops of my ankles and rub them raw.

Since I have been told that I will be wearing permanent cuffs in the future and I have the opportunity to find the most comfortable configuration possible, what is the collective wisdom concerning the most comfortable cuff style available. Some of you have LOTS of experience with such things so what should I look for, try to find or attempt to include in the cuff design should they be custom made? Which is better - wide cuffs, narrow cuffs, Eternity styled cuffs or something else? And should they be tight, loose or really loose?

The second question is, if my new cuffs are to be attached, what would be the optimal length of chain if only one length is to be used? I am required to wear high heel platforms whenever I am allowed to wear shoes and am looking for the "sweet spot" that would provide the greatest mobility while keeping within my Hubby's guidelines (whatever they may be). In other words, what do you feel is the minimum length of hobble chain that is suitable for daily wear both around the house and when I'm out? (The good news is that my shoes already shorten my stride so maybe a connecting chain wouldn't be much more inhibiting.)

Thanks for your help. I'm really worried about this and want to be as comfortable as possible while keeping Hubby happy.

Maybe my experiences will be of help to you. I've worn steel anklets for many years. They were made for me in 1982. 24/7 since 1994. They are removed only doctor's visits, air travel, etc. They were made a little snug so as not to shift when walking. I wore thin cotton socks underneath until my ankles got "used" to them. They're permanent in-the-sense that they're bolted closed and only my Master has the tool to remove them. I tried lengths of chain from 13" to 22". My current chain is 19" long. It allows me a slow 12" stride without pulling on the anklets. I have to be extra careful with high heels--always a chance of snagging the chain on them. I'm mostly barefoot or in a nice pair of flip-flops. The chain is removeable for when I go outside--but the anklets remain on and are (mostly) covered with a long skirt or a pair of jeans.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, Grace. That's exactly the type of information that I was seeking! Since I'm always wearing 7 1/2 to 8 inch high heels and the tops of my ankle bones are about 4 inches above those I hope to have 11 1/2 to 12 inches between my ankle cuff and the floor. If that were the case, I could actually wear a chain up to about 24 inches long before the chain would touch the floor. Not that I think that I will be allowed the luxury of a 24 inch chain between my ankles, but your assistance gives me some sort of reference point. The good news about wearing heels of the height that I do is that I think that by wearing a long skirt I might be able to hide the ankle chain completely when I'm out and about in public. Unless, of course, Hubby decides that short skirts also become an exclusive and permanent part of my wardrobe!

The other lesson is that, even though you have a 19 inch chain, you only take 12 inch steps. That's another thing that I had wondered about. In my mind's eye I could only see the ankle cuffs sawing through the skin on my ankles as I walked. That information might allow me to suggest a longer chain in that my steps would necessarily be shorter than the total length of the chain to avoid that sawing action. And a longer chain would make climbing stairs, getting in and out of automobiles and life in general easier to cope with but still provide a stride (if I can call it that) which would still achieve the level of inconvenience that my Hubby is looking for.

And the idea of wearing a thin sock under the cuffs until my skin hardens up will definitely be helpful. Thanks again!

But correct me if I'm wrong, but your anklets are formed steel rods, are they not? Or are they cuffs? And, in your experience, would cuffs like yours be more comfortable than, say, cuffs that are around two inches or so tall? If you could design a new cuff for yourself (nostalgia aside), what would you wear?

Everyone - Grace'ss information has been a great help! But I'm still interested in anyone else's suggestions or experience. This is an important issue for me and the more information that I can gather and evaluate, the better I may fare in the future.

Thanking you in advance,
