A new survey has revealed that many couples resort to kinky tactics in the privacy of their bedroom, by using handcuffs, blindfolds and whips, to add an element of fun in their sex life.
The results of the study, which was conducted on 2,500 people by online sex shop Lovehoney, showed that 66 percent of people have worn a blindfold and 69 percent have tied up a partner during sex, the Daily Star reported.
While over 52 percent respondents said that they have used handcuffs during intercourse, 1 in 5 have gagged a partner while making love.
Moreover, 16 percent of people asserted that bondage is now an every day part of their sexual routine.
Meanwhile, 21 percent added that they would love to try the bondage tricks but had yet to find a partner who felt the same.
