Joh It sounds better but they named it by them self.
right, i remembered it differently
well the chastity equipment or at least the thigh bands could be considered bondage, besides she once wrote here that her hands are tied when she takes a shower, that is already a bit bondage for me.
I think masochism can be defined in different ways. For me, what @Sara2001 does would be self-masochism, but I don't think she sees it that way because she was brought up differently.
My feelings are that labels like "BDSM" etc. facilitate communication. But they are approximate and are useless when trying to get a detailed understanding of the emotional states involved. Acronyms are even worse. S can be used for sadism or slave, and M for masochism or Master/Mistress/Ma'am etc. which are actually the opposites of each other.
On this forum, a chastity belt is variously described as an instrument of bondage, or a safety device (And a few other terms in between). They can be worn willingly or non-consensually (shudders). Like every tool or technology invented by humans, they can be used for good or ill.
I believe the value of this forum is we can get beyond labels and discuss our own, highly individual viewpoints and find ideas that make us think. Several times I have had "knee jerk" reactions to comments made here, yet the discussions that follow occasionally make me think: WOW! I never thought of that!
Bondage Domintion Submission Sadism Masochism. Yes, It's a category of fetishes. One of the fetishes insde of this category is DS (Domination & Submission).

i think so too, i agree with you on this point and i would like to stress that i am not in favour of using "labels" in a bold way either. but i think it is also important to say how we define terms like bdsm for ourselves so that there is no communicative problem. 
belt and bra rather not, we can discuss the thigh bands
In a real sense, all chastity devices and accessories are bondage devices. They limit choice by design. But this doesn't mean that it has anything necessarily to do with kink. Wedding rings are symbols of bondage where the wearer is bound to their partner. I do not see any kink or fetish in that.
Joh Why not? Your bust and sex is bound in metal.
I wear them as clothing as I like the supportive feeling. Maybe if I had not been introduced to it a long time ago I wouldn't be as addicted to it but that is what it is supportive clothing. I do not have any experience at all with thighbands or anything else as it was not necessary on me.
A masochist likes pain,and can be aroused by it,I think;it seems to not be the case of @Sara2001.
Angelina well the chastity equipment or at least the thigh bands could be considered bondage, besides she once wrote here that her hands are tied when she takes a shower, that is already a bit bondage for me.
Maybe,yes.But,about it too,@Sara2001 accepts it,but may not like it.

I was not sure about the "S" in BDSM too...I doubt the "M" would be "Master" as there is already this concept by "D"(Domination).

I agree.
You think the "S" in BDSM implies both possibilities?
Especially due to thigh bands,not much to other chastity devices.
But not as restrictive for walking or taking stairs than the thigh bands.
Joh Why not? Your bust and sex is bound in metal.
yes, but not every metal is bdsm , or would you call a saw a bdsm ? 
Foxies when everyone has the same understandings of the terms of reference. Sadly, this is all too rarely the case,
and that is why i always explain how i define things so that i am understood
yes, that's true it seems to me that she accepts but doesn't really like it, she rather likes how happy her boyfriend is about it

I was not talking about kink, only about what it be for the those who are forced to wear it. For many of you it has another purpose like @Ines she feels save for @Max9 he can handle his life better for @Sara2001 now she wears if for hers bf. @Angelina is forced to wear it and she has arrange her life around it but she looks forward to getting it off.
I prefer to name it like it is and if you happy with it than go with it.
Angelina yes, but not every metal is bdsm , or would you call a saw a bdsm ?
Please consider my answer in the whole discussion. I was not talking about metal at general I was talking about the restriction to tough yourself at you bust and sex. I also not understand piercing at it is as bondage or only BDSM related. For me it is jewellery other could use it for kink. It always depends on the point of view.
