Collars are symbolic and functional items commonly used in BDSM and fetish play to signify ownership, control, submission, or dominance within a power exchange dynamic. In BDSM scenes, collars are often worn around the neck as a physical representation of a power dynamic or relationship agreement between partners. Collars can come in various styles, materials, and designs, ranging from simple leather or metal bands to more intricate and decorative chokers. Some collars may feature D-rings or O-rings for attachment to leashes or other restraints, while others may include personalized tags or engravings to signify a submissive's relationship with their dominant partner. Collars can hold different meanings and significance for individuals within the BDSM community, representing trust, commitment, and the consensual exchange of power and control. It is important to use collars consensually, with clear communication, negotiation of boundaries, and mutual respect between partners. Establishing safe words, signals, and aftercare routines can help ensure that the use of collars in BDSM play is safe, respectful, and enjoyable for all participants.
