Rope Bondage; knots and hitches. Bondage is about taking control if you are a dominant and losing control or letting go of control if you are a submissive (slave). Bondage can be an important part of slave training or BDSM scene play. I t can render a feeling of helplessness to the tied slave girl. It is a huge turn on for many to have the feeling of helplessness and knowing the other party can do as they will to their body. For some, it is an emotional release that is very calming and restful while some struggle against the binding to feel the loss of control. It is not necessary to learn the complicated and time-consuming Japanese rope bondage techniques to do a competent job of restricting your slave. Also, good general bondage can be done with the use of leather wrist and ankle cuffs. Bondage can be used for erotic stimulation, punishment, discipline training, or humiliation.
Good bondage can be obtained with the knowledge of only a few simple knots and hitches. Bondage for restraint: Predicament bondage: Hitch: BDSM Gear, Bondage Equipment & Dungeon Furniture By Sex and Metal. Bullwhip. Bullwhips are pastoral tools, traditionally used to control livestock in open country. A bullwhip's length, flexibility, and tapered design allows it to be thrown in such a way that, toward the end of the throw, part of the whip exceeds the speed of sound—thereby creating a small sonic boom.[1] Many modern "sport" whip crackers claim that the bullwhip was rarely, if ever, used to strike cattle, but this is a matter for debate. History[edit] The origins of the bullwhip are also a matter for debate and, given the perishable nature of leather, are likely to remain so. Difficulties in tracing its development also arise from regional and national variations in nomenclature.
During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as rural economies became increasingly mechanized, demand for all types of whips diminished. By the middle of the 20th century, bullwhip making was a dying craft, with only a few craftsmen left making good quality whips. Anatomy of the bullwhip[edit] Use as hunting weapon[edit]
Suspension bondage. Stimulation[edit] In partial suspension the person is bound in a way that part of their body weight is held by suspension ropes, cables or chains. The classic partial suspension position is to have the person balancing on one foot with part of their weight supported through a chest harness and the other leg pulled up in some direction. A person lying on their upper back with legs tied upwards to a suspension point to pull their lower back off the ground would also qualify as partial suspension. In full suspension the person is completely supported by suspension ropes, cables or chains, and they have no contact with the ground.
The position of the person's body in a full suspension is only limited by their endurance and the skill of the binder. Suspension can alternatively create a sense of liberation in that one can "fly" around the room, and some styles of rigging are optimal for the suspendee to have control over their spin rate, body position, and general activities.

The main effect of suspension bondage is to create a heightened sense of vulnerability and inescapability, as the subject is made to feel that by attempting to free themselves they may fall and hurt themselves, thus also creating a form of mental bondage in addition to the physical one that holds them. Three main positions[edit] Vertical suspension[edit] Risks[edit] Strappado bondage. Strappado bondage is a term describing a position and technique used in BDSM play. A person's arms are bound behind their back, then by use of some method of attachment such as a rope or chain that runs from their wrists to a securing point above, their arms are lifted behind them until the person is forced to bend forward.
The term "strappado" or "strappado torture" used to describe this position refers to a method of torture[1] that is still practised in some countries today, and has its roots in a form of medieval torture by the same name. While the strappado bondage position is considered to be a form of BDSM play, it shares its basic principles of restraint with the method of torture and therefore can very easily become just that if not practised safely. In particular, there is a risk of the sort of injuries discussed in the strappado article. Techniques[edit] Outdoor/public strappado using handcuffs and chains. A different style is to make use of a spreader bar. References[edit] Whip. A leather cat o' nine tails pictured with a U.S. dollar bill for size comparison.
A set of romal reins, featuring a quirt at the end of the romal A whip is a tool traditionally used by humans to exert control over animals or other people, through pain compliance or fear of pain, although in some activities whips can be used without use of pain, such as an additional pressure aid in dressage. Whips are generally of two types, either a firm stick device designed to strike directly, or a flexible whip which must be swung in a specific manner to be effective, but has a longer reach. There are also whips which combine both a firm stick (the stock or handle) and a flexible line (the lash or thong), such as hunting whips. The majority of whips are designed for use on animals, although whips such as the "cat o' nine tails" and knout were designed specifically for flagellation of humans as a means of a corporal punishment or torture.
Use of whips[edit] Stockwhips[edit] An Australian stockwhip. Bdsm cloroform. List of bondage positions. Bondage stuff. Head bondage. Head bondage, in BDSM play, includes all techniques used to apply control to the head of the subject. It may refer to one of several techniques: Head harness[edit] Head harnesses, like many other forms of bondage, also have the effect of creating a sense of objectification and erotic helplessness in the wearer, which can be erotic for the wearer, or for those observing them. Many head harnesses are designed with straps that pass in front of the wearer's eyes, restricting their vision, and further increasing the sense of objectification and erotic subjection.
Some have full blindfolds. References[edit] Hogtie bondage. Definition[edit] A stringent hogtie A variation of the hogtie involves tying bound wrists to frogtied legs, providing the dominant easier access to the submissive's crotch for sexual play. The hogtie differs from the balltie, which involves tying the legs together in front of the person with the arms additionally in front or behind. They both differ from the spread eagle tie, which fully separates the arms and legs. As with all bondage play, the free partner is regarded as being in the dominant or controlling position, while the tied partner is regarded as being sexually submissive, though in some play the tied partner may control the situation verbally.

Variations[edit] Reverse shrimp tie Knees are bound inward to further restrict movementThe ankles are tied to the neck instead of the chest harnessThe subject lies on his or her belly and the ankles are drawn to the back, similar to hogtie bondage. All variations have the crossed position of the ankles in common. See also[edit] Ball tie References[edit] External links[edit] Youtube video on how to tie a shrimp tie, retrieved on 15 April, 2014. Savage fold - Wipipedia. John Willie. John Alexander Scott Coutts (9 December 1902 – 5 August 1962), better known by the pseudonym John Willie, was the artist, fetish photographer, editor, and publisher of the soft-porn cult magazine “Bizarre.” Known by some as the “Rembrandt of Pulp,” he was a pioneer of the fetish world who is credited with bringing fetish from England to America as “Bizarre” was the first magazine that catered to America’s fetish community.
Willie is best known for his bondage comic strips, specifically "Sweet Gwendoline" and Sir d'Arcy d'Arcy. Coutts was able to avoid controversy in censorship through careful attention to guidelines and the use of humor. Though “Bizarre” was a small format magazine, it had a huge impact on later kink publications and experienced a resurgence in popularity along with well-known fetish model, Bettie Page, in the 1980s.
Early Life[edit] Beginning His Career[edit] John Willie's Work and "Bizarre"[edit] G-string tie[edit] Step by step G-string tie instructions Quote[edit] Frogtie. Each leg is frogtied (ankle tied to thigh). However, notice the bonds are too tight as the model's hands are discolored. Medical issues, such as blood clots, can result from over-tightening the ropes. This tie places the person in a position where they are vulnerable but not completely immobilised and can still move about, albeit in an awkward crawling motion. The frogtie, with the person restrained so, can also be used as a restrictive sex position or as a basis for more restrictive bondage.
The bound person's wrist tie can also be tethered to some sort of immovable ring by an arbitrary length of cord, allowing some limited freedom of movement while preventing escape. In a similar position, the person's wrists are simply bound to their corresponding ankles. See also[edit] References[edit] Wiseman, Jay (2000). Bondage rope harness. A woman in a karada with a crotch rope Woman in karada harness A rope harness is similar in effect to a leather bondage harness, in that both are not in themselves normally used to bind a person, but are used to apply pressure over the area bound and can provide securing points for other bondage techniques, including suspension bondage.
A rope dress can also refer to a conventional dress which incorporates a significant amount of rope or thick weave, or is held up at the shoulders by a thin rope. Technique[edit] A rope dress typically takes around 10-15 m of rope to tie, and involves multiple passes of rope from front to back around the body to build up the characteristic diamond-shaped rope pattern, typically starting from a rope halter (as in the illustration) and moving down the body. In some cases, a rope harness may extend beyond the torso, into diamond-patterned webs that extend down the length of the arms or legs.
Japanese karada[edit] The Japanese term karada means simply "body". Reverse prayer position. A reverse prayer tie. The Reverse prayer position, a technique used in BDSM play, involves restraint of a person's arms by binding them behind the person's back, with the hands placed between the shoulders, with the fingers of both hands straight, extended, and the palms of the hands touching each other.[1] The wrists are bound together. It is thus similar to the traditional prayer position, but with the arms behind, rather than in front of, the bound person, thus preventing use of the arms.
Many people find this position painful after a time, and cramps may set in. Thus, someone bound in this position may need careful monitoring. To immobilise the arms further, ropes or a strap are often placed round the arms and torso, pressing the arms against the back. In bondage fiction, people in this position are sometimes forced to have their elbows touching, turning this into a form of elbow bondage. The reverse prayer position (without any bondage) is also used in some yoga exercises.[2] Elbow bondage. Bondage or ligotage is consentually tying, binding, or restraining a partner for erotic, aesthetic, and/or somatosensory stimulation. Rope, cuffs, bondage tape, self-adhesive bandages, or other restraints may be used for this purpose.
Bondage itself does not imply sadomasochism. Bondage may be used as an end into itself, as in the case of rope bondage and breast bondage. It may also be used as a part of sex or in conjunction with other BDSM activities. The letter "B" in the acronym "BDSM" comes from the word "bondage". Sexuality and erotica are an important aspect in bondage, but are often not the end in itself. Aesthetics also plays an important role in bondage.
A common reason for the active partner to tie up their partner is so both may gain pleasure from the restrained partner's submission and the feeling of the temporary transfer of control and power. The main feature of sexual bondage is that it renders the restrained person vulnerable to a variety of sex acts. Crotch rope. A knotted crotch-rope to stimulate the clitoris. A clothed woman wearing a traditional crotch-rope. A crotch rope may be tied over clothing or directly onto the skin, and can be worn under clothing or in full view. While crotch ropes are most commonly intended for women, specific variations exist for males. A crotch rope can also be used as an unsophisticated type of chastity belt. Usage[edit] Typically, the ropes pass between the labia majora[2] or deeper through the cleft of the vulva. Variations[edit] The ropes may be wrapped tightly around waist and tied off in front, fed down across the genitals, then pulled back up behind and tied to other cords wrapped around the wrists, doubling as a cinch to tighten them further.
