Underwater gasmask sex- part II


Gucci and Louis Vuitton gas masks

Designer Gas masks: "Although we are living in a harmonious society, in western world the rich people still worry about their safety due to the terrorist incidents while the growing pollutants and harmful toxins threaten their life. Maybe for this reason, Diddo Velema in collaboration with Gucci and Louis Vuitton released three novelty masks. These jewel encrusted, monogram basted pieces will assure the survival of the richest the day some incidents happen."

"After the birth of the masks, many people hold the opinion above that they are products for the safety of rich people. However, the designer, Velema, explains the concept this way "We are in a state of perpetual war--with ourselves and with the eco-system that sustains us. Perpetual war breeds perpetual fear. In the present context, this fear stems from our extreme desire for authenticity and manifests itself in our collectively insatiable culture of consumption. Deep down, we are afraid we may never be satisfied. An expanding archive of branded myths and icons feeds this fear. Designer Gas Masks is an attempt to visualize this state of mind. Because it is only by first acknowledging and then challenging fear that we will all be able to breathe a little easier.""

The masks were produced for a short list of ultra-wealthy clients and the designers comments were written in 2008 at the very peak of lavish spending a few months before the stock market meltdown. The masks are real with jeweled and logo overlays and are fully functional taking standard 40 mm filter canisters. I bought one of each – they are in my size – from a bankruptcy sale here a few months ago because they are just the thing to wear to one of Adolph’s masked balls where everyone needs protective breathing equipment. I’ve already tried them out to make sure the seals don’t need repair and the filters really do fit and had them examined by my jeweler to check the PavĂ© and major stone settings to make certain that the mountings are solid. I’d hate to lose a large diamond, ruby or emerald (yes they are real jewels) during an energetic sexual encounter in a hostile environment.

A reader asks: Why are you so against under water gasmask sex?

I’m not against underwater gasmask sex, but as I mentioned in an earlier entry [see: April 14, 2010 ‘Gasmask-sex underwater’] using a vintage rubber gasmask underwater can be very dangerous not to mention uncomfortable for the wearer. I understand they are inexpensive and readily available, but that doesn’t offset the danger of wearing vintage rubber not designed for diving. And, because they have no mechanism for assisting in pressure equalization of the ears and sinuses most divers can only use them in shallow water dives.

A local Dom experienced in having his teen Subs wear surplus vintage rubber gasmasks for dive-sex likes to pour liquid oxytocin (Pitocin or Syntocinon) into the Subs mask so that she breathes the fumes as she inhales through the air hose. He says it makes even a woman on her period much more responsive, wetter, and more quickly aroused and her orgasms more intense by strengthening the contractions of her vaginal muscles. The use of Oxytocin as a female performance enhancer may offset the discomfort of wearing a vintage gasmask while submerged but my own few experiences doing that convinced me that it wasn’t worth the trouble and there is the very real possibility of drowning. The down side of having oxytocin poured into a dive mask is that an overdose, a mistake easily made because used this way each women takes a different amount, can cause nipple discharge and uterine contractions so severe they will knot a woman into the fetal position for a day or more. And if uterine contractions occur when the woman is submerged she is helpless and in extreme danger.

Single atmosphere diving: Some Doms try to get away w/o using compressed air for dive-sex. So, another problem with vintage gasmasks used as diving equipment is when they are used as single atmosphere (un-pressurized) masks at the maximum single atmosphere depth. Extending the depth is easily done by extending the corrugated rubber air hose supplying the mask to a length of15 to 25 feet and attaching the open end to a float to keep it above the surface of the water and equipping it with a snorkel valve. In shallow water – above 10 feet - that may work for a while if the s/he can tolerate the feel of the mask collapsing on her face as the water pressure pushes the rubber into the facial void and the seals hold so the mask doesn’t flood. But below that depth the hose is too long to be purged of the diver’s breath so that s/he is rebreathing her own carbon dioxide and eventually the wearer runs out of oxygen, just as though she had the valve closed on a rebreather bag. It just takes a bit longer and since the diver is busy checking for leaks and playing with her partner her excitement often masks the fact that her breathing is becoming shallower more rapid as the oxygen in the hose decreases and the CO2 increases. If she loses consciousness she can easily suffocate or if the mask pulls off as she faints she may drown.
