PVC Underwear
PVC – or Polyvinyl chloride, to give it it’s correct title – has roots in the 19th century, but it wasn’t until 1926 that the PVC we know and love today was discovered. I wonder, in the modest Georgian times of it’s discovery, if creators Waldo Semon and B.F. Goodrich had any idea that their invention would indeed revolutionise industry and manufacturing, but also spawn perhaps the biggest fetish the world has ever known?
There is no doubt that PVC underwear has absolutely no use outside of the bedroom. The problems wearing such a garment would create are endless and largely involve the word ‘chafing’. Yet PVC underwear continues to sell because, if you want to create a show-stopping effect in the bedroom that is something completely different, it is probably the most effective type of underwear you can purchase.
PVC underwear comes in a vast array of varieties. There are the standard bra and knickers, which are on the demure side of this more extreme branch of fashion, though nevertheless still quite risqué on the whole when in comparison with a standard white cotton set. There is then more intricate designs of PVC underwear, expanded to incorporate corsets, bodystockings and even stockings and suspender belts. Basically, when it comes to PVC underwear, everything that is available in cotton or standard materials is available also in PVC – it just takes a little mental preparation to wear it.
Fetish can be fun and PVC underwear plays a huge part in that, be it a serious, dedicated fetish or just an excuse for a little experimentation. There is something undeniably empowering about the effect PVC underwear may have on a man – you will often find even the most mild-mannered of men have a heightened interest in this darker side of bedroom play. PVC is linked heavily with sado-masochism and is a particular favourite of dominatrices, where it is taken to the extreme, but that doesn’t cut it off from the rest of society. Take a walk on the wild side with PVC, and you may be pleasantly surprised at the results.
If you do decide to do just that, then there are some things you need to bear in mind before strapping yourself into PVC. The first is to try and keep cool, as PVC against the skin will increase your temperature beyond belief until you are used to it. Oddly enough, this suggests the use of PVC underwear as a night-time pursuit – which is rather fitting!
Before putting PVC underwear on, a little talcum powder is a Godsend. Sprinkle it lightly on your skin, just enough to make your skin particularly soft and smooth without leaving huge amounts of white residue. The talcum powder will create an almost invisible barrier and save the worst of the comfort issues from afflicting you. The other main reason for discomfort when wearing PVC is air pockets, which create a suction effect that, at their worst, can be extremely painful. To ensure this doesn’t happen to you, completely smooth out the garment and ensure there is no trapped air. Added to the talcum powder trick, by doing this you will find PVC surprisingly comfortable to wear – and then you’re good to go, for an experience you’re unlikely to forget in a hurry.
