do you have DA and its documentation? trying to write dialogues without the documentation is like roaming a forest at night, blindfolded with earplugs in, trying to kill a man whose up in a tree stand and all you have is a spoon. spaces do not work in DA triggers directly, instead requiring the value be stored as a variable. underscores break DA triggers.

Code:
general:"I want to be gagged."{"set":{"da.clothes.gag.type":"Ring Trainer A"}}
or
Code:
initial_settings:{"gag":"Ring Trainer A"}
general:"I want to be gagged.[SETVARBYNAEM_da.clothes.gag.type_gag]"
Code:
general:"I do not want to be gagged.[SETVAR_da.clothes.gag.type_None]"{"style":"thought"}
Also a few tips on writing and debugging dialogues:
Use notepad++. definitely helps out a lot. there are several User-Defined language files for writing SDT dialogues floating around this site including one i made.
check your dialogue with dialogue checker. it is a helpful tool developed and maintained by pim_gd, the same man behind DA. there are 2 versions of it. the online version and the offline version. I have link to my Dictionary Import file for Sby mods (which only works with the offline version).
check the Dialogue editor log.
manually load the monitordialog mod
