6. Japanese Rope Bondage

While dominants can use anything from dungeon irons to the dog’s leash to bind a submissive, the fine art of Japanese rope bondage classes it up with the use of long, smooth ropes often made of hemp, jute or linen. These materials feel particularly good against bare skin. They are also very flexible and unlikely to cause rope burn; however, regular, higher-quality cotton rope will also work (see #5). The purpose of rope-bondage erotic art is multifold: restraint combined with erotic, intricate patterns that crisscross the submissive partner’s body to look as good as they feel.

Although it takes years of study and play to master this sexy art form, beginners can enjoy the basics by purchasing two lengths of high-quality rope. The first length should wind around the female submissive’s upper body, harnessing her breasts and restraining her arms to her sides or to a piece of furniture like the headboard or the arms of a chair. The second length should wind around her legs, either binding them closed or tying them open and fastening them to the footboard or the legs of a chair. Whether the submissive’s legs are bound closed or tied open depends on the type of sexual activity that is to follow.

As couples become more familiar with BDSM sexplay, they can begin to experiment with some of the more physically complicated and sensually dramatic bondage positions that can be achieved with rope (see #34 and #35).
