The most common leash used on a human is one with a clip at one end and a loop of the same material at the other. Commonly made of leather (occasionally braided for extra flexibility) but sometimes of nylon webbing, small-linked chain or rope. Many people use a strong dog leash, especially a black leather one. Typical length in total is between one and two metres.
Purposes of a leash include:
A visual sign of ownership to other people (especially at clubs).;
A psychological enforcer to the submissive of their status;
Physical control and positioning;
The submissive's collar, leash, and restraints are highly symbolic. Being led on a leash makes many submissive people feel comforted and gives them a strong sense of belonging. Some experience humiliation but that doesn't stop it being a positive, sexual experience. Leading a submissive on a leash can make a dominant very proud of their partner and give them a strong sense of ownership and responsibility.
Leashes are most often used in private or in a secluded public place, or sometimes in public but discreetly so as not to be obvious to others. Sometimes, a leash is used very openly and publicly, especially in a scene club.
At a club or play party, D/s players often prefer formal etiquette and will use a leash as part of this, to signify that the submissive is not single or, if the leash is held in their mouth, that they are not available for conversation.
