Review date: March 2020
Serious Male Bondage is about real men into real bondage. There are no bound-for-pay models here. Sometimes there is explicit sex play, but most often it is the acting out of bondage fantasies themselves, in all their varieties, that is the focus. You'll find men restrained in rubber, leather and latex, confined to small spaces, tied up and suspended. True bondage aficionados will be impressed; newbies will be fascinated. And this site is large, with over 600 episodes and regular updates.
Tour
On the splash page of the SMB tour, you are informed that the site focuses on real amateurs who enjoy bondage as a fetish or a lifestyle. You are also told that you won't necessarily see sex in a particular scene. You can browse through the entire inventory of content, reading descriptions and viewing several thumbnail images for each episode. The exact number of videos and pictures on the site is also displayed. While there are no free clips, there's more than enough here so you to make an informed decision.
Usability
The design of SMB is simple and straightforward. When you log-in you'll be prompted to choose Updates, where all the content lies. Everything is arranged with the most recent content ("Galleries") first. For some reason, the "More Images" menu item does not work.
You can readily skip anywhere in the site as the range of page links are prominently displayed. In each episode overview, there's a title, a full text description and a few thumbnail pictures to get you started. You're also told exactly how many videos and images there are in the gallery. Click in to stream or download the videos and view the pics. While there's no search engine, keywords are linked throughout the site.
The Men and the Action
These guys are not professional models, and you will see every body type from muscled to skinny, from furry bear to smooth skinned. The only thing they have in common is a bondage fetish. Quite a few make repeat appearances while others you'll only see once. The scenarios are varied as well, with lots of body suits made of rubber or latex, leather; binding gear like straps, chains and straitjackets; and confined spaced like jail cells and boxes. The text descriptions are very detailed and the videos are not just entertaining but sometimes highly instructive. As mentioned, conventional sex is not the point here; it's all about the bondage.
Video Details
The quality of the videos is generally very good, though simply shot.
SMB's content is organized by titled episodes (which they call galleries). Most of the episodes have one full-length video, though about 30 have none and in other cases the video is divided into 2 to 3 parts. So there are about 660 episodes which include video content. There is usually one update per week.
The more recent 55% of videos, released since October, 2013, are available to stream or download in MP4 format at 1280x720 pixels, 3100 kbps.
Older videos are in Windows Media format 720x480 pixels, between 2000 and 3000 kbps.
Screens: The site doesn't have a mobile version, but the MP4 videos will stream on a phone. The 720p videos will also look good on a big screen.
Image and Other Content
There are image sets for every episode, averaging around 40 images per set. Some are digital photos while others are screencaps. Image sizes vary, but they are very good quality.
Summing Up
Serious Male Bondage is an excellent choice if you want to watch amateurs fulfilling a large range of fetish fantasies. Bondage experts and fans alike will be impressed with the 600+ episodes -- and the price is right.
