6 Mistakes You Don’t Want To Make With Bondage

These days, I like to think that I’m pretty reasonable with rope bondage and using rope to create hot times.

But believe me, it’s been a journey. There have been some real bloopers along the way, and embarrassing though they are, I’ve decided to share them with you so that you don’t go through what I did.

Every single mistake listed taught me very real, meaningful, and important lessons that have helped me be more successful in creating positive, intense, and erotic experiences for me and my play partners. Continue reading 6 Mistakes You Don’t Want To Make With Bondage

Knotted Vs Whipped Ends; The Update

Okay, so this post follows up on a previous post, regarding knotted versus whipped rope ends.

In that post, I detailed why at that time, I was a big fan of whipping rope ends, because it made life easier during the actual tying process, what with the flat profile and the way whipped rope ends didn’t catch as I tied someone and slid rope ends beneath other bands of rope, etc.

An Unexpected Peril of Practice

Hi guys!

I’ve come down with some annoying variant of plague this week, which has limited my ability to post to my usual standard, so really sorry about that – I’ll try and make it up to you with a video tutorial next week!

Why Would You Want To Tie Someone Up?

There are two reasons why I wrote this particular post.

1. The first is for myself. I think it’s really important to know why I do what I do; what I like about it, what I love about it. I think being able to articulate why I do this stuff – why I like to tie people – is really important in keeping myself motivated in learning more, and also in keeping my focus where it should be – having a really hot time with someone I want to have a hot time with.

2. The second is for you guys! For people who are interested in learning, and for people who just don’t understand why one person would want to tie another up, and what we get out of it.

I mean, people who enjoy being tied up probably don’t get it why it’s fun for someone to tie them up; they know how it feels to be tied, but why is it fun to do the tying?

So this post is for people who enjoy being tied, too. People who might like to know what it’s like on the other side of the rope.

So, where to begin?

Ah, yes.

This is actually a little bit embarrassing. Continue reading Why Would You Want To Tie Someone Up?
