Knots youâll want to learn about are the square knot, hitch, loop knot, larkâs head, cinch loop, and something called a âgiâ knot.
Buy soft nylon rope, not cotton, which will stretch and youâll end up tying your knots too tight without knowing itâsome rope bondage kits include some of the most dangerous rope to play with, proving that many novelty retailers donât have a clue about BDSM or safety. Get your rope from kinky sex toy retailers who know their stuff, or at the hardware store: a good start-up kit is four lengths of soft nylon rope, each 4 feet long, with masking tape wrapped around the ends to prevent fraying.
Confinement, servitude, and subjection all fall into captivity scenarios. Bondage, submission, and being on the receiving end of whatever the dominant dishes out are all the order of the day. With luck, your scenario involves some type of sex, and you may decide whether or not your scene involves pretend, previously agreed-on force or coercion. The person in charge might be doing it âfor their own good,â as therapyâor might be forceful, âmakingâ the submissive comply sexuallyâor might pretend to trade sexual favors for their silence.
Tie Me Up?
Before anyone gets tied up, itâs absolutely required that you carefully discuss what will happen. It must be perfectly clear that you both want to try it, and the receiving partner must give explicit consent. Save the surprises for strip-o-grams and boxes of chocolatesânot bondage.
Keep medical scissors handy in case your knots are too tight, your bondage is painful or cuts off circulation, or your lover needs to get out of whatever it is, fast. Tie a long colorful ribbon to your handcuff key so itâs impossible to lose. And rememberâif you restrain them in public, youâll probably wind up in jail.
Okay, so that all sounds hot. But you must be wondering, âOnce I get my lover tied up, what the hell do I do then?â Good question, and I have a few ideas for you.
⢠Blindfolds are a great way to keep them guessing whatâs next.
⢠Strip, or masturbate, just out of reach.
⢠Tell them how helpless and vulnerable they are. And all the things you mightâand will âdo to them.
⢠Rub their body slowly with fur, feathers, silk, satin, scratchy wool, panties, whips, or any fetish objects.
⢠Give them an erotic massage.
⢠Bite and scratch, spank and slap (not the face or testicles).
⢠Have your way with them sexuallyâvery slowly, or rough and quick.
⢠Try hot and cold sensations from ice, warm tea bags, or changing the temperature of your mouth. Never put ice inside anyone.
⢠Drip hot wax on them.
⢠Alternate pleasurable pain with masturbation.
⢠Apply clamps and clips to their bodyâbuy these in a specialty fetish store, and donât leave them on for more than 5 minutes.
⢠If tickling arouses your lover, have at it.
⢠Oral sexâgiving or receiving. Face-sitting is nice, too.
⢠Shave their genitals.
⢠Use sex toys on them.
⢠Something missing? How about seeing how they look wearing a butt plug that has a fuzzy bunny tail, feather, or horsie tail coming out the end!
Blindfolds and Gags
One toy I feel that everyone should have in their toybox, no matter if theyâre kinky or not, is a blindfold. When wearing a blindfold, you can completely surrender to your loverâs erotic whims, you never know whatâs coming next, the suspense arouses you incredibly, and you have a wonderful feeling of risk, trust, and delicious erotic expectationâall at once. Putting a blindfold on someone is a thrill beyond compare; here you have a love slave whom you can surprise, tease, turn on, and make come without their even needing to know whatâs next on the menu. Plus, if youâre nervous or confused, or have to struggle with a stubborn vibrator battery case,
