Jeff Gord Explained

Jeffrey E. Owen
Birth Date:5 May 1946

Jeffrey E. Owen (5 May 1946 - 3 September 2013), better known by his alias Jeff Gord,[1] [2] was a bondage artist, photographer and filmmaker.[3] [4] who specialized in the forniphilia subgenre, a form of objectifying sexual bondage which involves the subject being tightly bound and expected to stay immobile for a prolonged period.[5] He described his work as being for women's pleasure, saying "I feed on women's pleasure".

Background

Born in the United Kingdom, Gord described himself as a "mad bondage scientist".[6] He initially founded his own publishing company in 1992, publishing erotic books specialising in bondage stories. In 1997, he launched and maintained the website "House of Gord" on the subject.[7] [8] [9] His influences included Robert Bishop, Eric Stanton and John Willie.[10]

He stated that his first interest in fetish had been when, as a small child, he saw an actress on stage wearing tight lycra, and wished he could tie her up so that she could not move.[11]

Aaron Kunin has described Gord's vision of the human body as "as spectacular and thorough in its commitment to objectification as Busby Berkeley’s."

Death

Gord died on 3 September 2013, at the age of 67. [12] [13]
