A bondage suit, also known as a gimp suit or gimpsuit, is a form-fitting garment designed to cover the entire body, often including the hands and feet, for role-playing purposes within BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, and Masochism). The term "GIMP" has been interpreted as an acronym for "guy in mask permanently," though it is commonly used in a gender-neutral context.

Design and materials

Bondage suits may include an attached hood or be worn with a separate bondage hood, also known as a "gimp mask." The purpose of the hood or mask is to limit facial perception, allowing the wearer to fully assume the role they have consensually agreed upon. The bondage suit, as a whole, is intended to alter the executive functions of those involved by affecting perception. These suits are typically made from materials such as leather, PVC, rubber, spandex, or Darlexx.

Bondage suits can also be worn in conjunction with other BDSM accessories, such as corsets, bondage harnesses, or other restraints, to enhance the role-playing experience.

Usage

In BDSM activities, a bondage suit may be used to objectify the wearer, transforming them into a fetishized figure or an object for sexual gratification. The wearer consensually adopts the role of a masturbatory sexual toy, doll, dummy, or automaton, as opposed to a human sexual partner with typical characteristics of desire and ego. This transformation is agreed upon by all parties involved for mutual enjoyment. Additionally, the suit can serve aesthetic or tactile purposes, allowing for the admiration of the wearer's physique. Some suits are designed with strategically placed openings to allow access to the breasts, genitals, mouth, anus, or sexual toys during sexual activities.

In popular culture

The term "gimp suit" gained widespread recognition through its use in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Pulp Fiction.
