Status: offline 		I do a lot of femdom research (both serious and prurient) where the use of a leather or latex hood is apparently relatively common ... and ... well ... I was just wondering, since I've never worn a hood, what's the difference?

Besides the obvious that a hood covers more skin, is there a functional difference in your experience?

I mean, since the mouth can be gagged separately, and since the eyes can be blindfolded separately (I guess I should start wondering about the ears?), why bother with a stretchy hood, when a simple blindfold and gag might suffice to functionally dim the senses?

Since hoods exist, there must be something particular (for the pleasure of either the sub or the top) about a hood in functionality?
But what?

I absolutely said no.

I would never wear one and I like objectification.

I think this is very intriguing, and I agree with you, especially as we males are often NOT objectified, but, some of us are wired to love the feeling of being used for our bodies, as objects (tools of your pleasure), so to speak.

Thanks very much for your eclectic insight!

That's interesting, and, I would agree that "cleanable" must be critical for something that covers so completely.
Is it the norm to have latex versus leather, in that respect?

I like blindfolds and gags over hoods.

Hoods make me wayyyyy claustrophobic. And also, hoods would mess up my hair more.

Status: offline 		We use hoods a lot, a nice leather one that laces at the back of the head with eyes and ears padded, the mouth is open
A couple of spandex/neoprene ones, spandex is good, the neoprene tends to stick to hair unpleasantly( for us), one is full face and one has an open mouth
Weve got a couple of cheap latex ones, one has a "penis" gag. But they cause so much sweating(perspiring or glowing)

Definitely for sensory deprivation and enclosure, it removes sight, it removes speaking(if the mouth is shut)it distorts hearing, it heightens everything else, smell taste, (great if you like the smell of hot leather or latex. He loves being tied up at the back, like a corset lacing, each tug on the laces put him in deeper. All he can feel is me, all he can smell is me, and the hood, and makes him wonder what the hell is coming next
We are going next with a hood and a helmet with in built in headset so I can pip in sounds, wether they be rainfall/waves/my voice teasing him/music or a porn track.

t distorts hearing,

That's an interesting observation, because, while it removes sight, it only partially removes hearing, so, it's sort of a dulling of that particular sense.

The way you say he reacts, makes me want to make my own hood as we speak!

Wow. That's an intriguing use of the audio, which gives me an idea, being that I'm both service oriented and I inherently derive pleasure by learning how to do things exactly the way SHE wants them done.

This (mythical) She could record instructions, perhaps for making tea that evening, or bathing her feet, or preparing dinner, and, with the hood helmet on, it would guide my every move and thoughts. Heh heh ... dangerous in the hands of the wrong woman!
