YNOT – Kink.com will launch a new website Oct. 14. Bound in Public, the latest in the Kink Men line, offers content produced by master director Van Darkholme.Bound in Public focuses on humiliation, degradation and gay gangbangs, all performed before live audiences within the walls of the company’s San Francisco Armory-turned-studio, at street fairs, in public establishments or in men’s restrooms. Darkholme said the material “creates the ultimate submissive fantasy.”

“The gay community embraced Bound Gods so well that it was a natural progression to create BIP,” Darkholme said. “When shooting a few Naked Kombat matches in front of live audiences, I felt the electricity and desire in the air that pushed me to wonder and conceptualize what it would be like to do BDSM in public. One thought led to another, and now we have Bound In Public. It’s a beautiful thing.”

Designed to “bring out the exhibitionist pain slut in all of us,” according to Darkholme, Bound In Public strictly adheres to Kink.com’s practice of providing truly authentic material and consensual participants. The main sub (actor) on BiP endures the bondage, corporal punishment and humiliation for real. The interactions between the actors and the crowd are unscripted.

“This is a totally new and unique concept,” Darkholme said. “There are other, more vanilla sites out there doing parts of what we are doing, but Bound in Public is the only site that puts it all in one convenient viewing location.”

To celebrate the site’s debut, Kink.com will host a launch party from 7-11 p.m. PT Oct. 22. The event will be streamed live through the website and is free for members. Non-members may watch at a per-minute cost of 25 cents.

Like the rest of Kink.com’s family of websites, Bound in Public is part of the Kinky Dollars affiliate program.
