A VERY Naughty Crotch Tie.

This is a variation on the groin tie, which is sort of part crotch tie, part hip harness. It’s simple to create, the act of tying it can often turn a woman on as she feels the pressure of the rope doing… things… and it creates a lot of access for sex and naughty play.

I’ve been having a lot of fun with it lately, and I thought I’d note it down and share it with y’all. I HIGHLY recommend using rope you’re very happy to wash. I tend to use nylon for this, but am likely to experiment in future with bamboo rope.

Shibari Hojo Cuff Techniques

I’ve been playing with different ways of doing the hojo cuff. It’s an incredibly useful little rope move, but as with any tie, working out how to do it smoothly as a part of play can be in interesting challenge.

Here’s what I’ve got so far. It’s all about the finger work… and the dominance.

The “Sleepy Shibari” Tie.

The “sleepy shibari” is a cute little tie that I learned from Wykd Dave, who had a video up a few years back.

The idea behind this “sleepy shibari” tie is that you’ve already been doing a lot of fun things with your partner, and now they’re in this sleepy, relaxed state, and probably lying face down. Being the wonderfully kind Rope Top you are, you’ve decided you can allow them to enjoy that state of rope happiness for just that little while longer… so now it’s time to add yet more rope!

Making A Bondage Rope Dress

The design for this rope dress is something I wanted to learn for awhile, and I’ve finally gotten into it.

My friend Dexter has been tying bondage rope dresses onto people for literally years. I’d see them wandering about at a kinky party or event having a great time and looking kinky and hot, and think “I should really get around to learning that” and now I finally have.

It’s a really nice way to do a little bit of rope bondage that’s not too intense; when you have someone who feels like enjoying rope but can’t handle being restrained just now, this is a great way to do it.

So hey; here are some notes to enjoy on how to do it.

Christian Red Tengu

Okay, here we go again with a DIFFERENT version of the tengu, because while the last one wasn’t a bad introduction to the tie, per se; it could have been better. So here we go.

How To Make Time For Kink And Sex

I had an email asking me how people fit kinky scenes into their week when they’re working full time and have a lot going on. Fair enough! I can definitely relate to the difficulties there.

I figured it probably wasn’t just this person who had that problem, so here comes another post with the strategies I’m using at the moment.

How To Do A Sensual Rope Scene

I fucking love sensual rope scenes. They are absolutely one of my favorite types of scene to do, and I take great delight in them.

I find that they’re a great way to top someone and be all dominant with hot top energy, without any use of pain. It’s all about the bondage, power, and intimacy.

Recently I got an email asking for more information on how to do a scene like this, so I’m laying out some ideas. It’s not a point by point “do this, then that”, but more a set of principles and ideas that you can use to create your own rope bondage wizardry with whomever you like.

Pet Play: A Fun New Sexy Kink

Pet play is a kink I’ve been learning about due to forming a connection with someone who’s quite into it and who identifies as a “pet”. It’s an interesting thing, tying up a cat-girl…

So this has become a great opportunity to learn something new, and to make sense of it by writing it up and sharing it with my readers – including how some rope bondage can combine rather well with pet play.
