I just love wearing them, preferably comfortably tight. Tight enough to feel constrained, but still able to breathe properly.
When I am laced in, I feel feminine and safe, feel as though I am locked into a protective bear hug with a constant reminder that I am his. In fact nearly good enough to burst out of it with pride.
Oh - and yes - a corset is primarily a tool rather than a fashion item, and should be bought as such, even if it is also worn as an outer garment.
