WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ROPE TYING?

There are a few basic things to watch out for before starting a tying game. The first is pinching the nerves – it is important to always be able to squeeze one or two fingers between the rope and the body, especially when the tying is in the wrist area. It is not recommended to tie a rope around the neck, armpits, as well as in other places where there are ties, such as knees and elbows. In case you are curious, you can learn basic things about the anatomy of a person. Knowing the human body would be useful in any kind of sexual play.

The second thing to watch out for is difficulty breathing. This can happen if the rope is tied tightly around the chest, but not only. This risk of suffocation exists with postures in which the knees and chest are tightly touched, or when the wrists and ankles are tied behind the back and the partner lies on his stomach. In this position, all the weight of the body falls on the chest and it is very possible to interfere with breathing.

When trying a new pastime in sex, especially when it involves tying, be sure to communicate openly with your partner. Check his breathing often enough, and if any of the knots on the rope have tightened too tightly.

If you need to quickly release your partner, you should be able to cut the rope immediately. Therefore, one of the things you should always have on hand is a scissors with a blunt tip. Another important thing is not to leave your partner alone, even for a second, while they are tied up. Suitable places to practice this game for beginners are on the ground and on the bed.

When choosing a rope, it is good to buy one that is specially designed for tying. The ropes from your local household goods store are hard and their material is not compatible with the skin of the body, therefore their use would be unpleasant for you. The other characteristics of the rope are a matter of personal choice. You decide whether it should be made of artificial, natural or mixed fabric, knitted or twisted, thick or thin. For beginners, a not very thick rope made of cotton fabric is recommended. Cotton rope is soft, and the likelihood of fraying the skin is less. Remember that it is important to like the touch of the rope with the skin.

One of the main techniques is tying a part of the body: usually it is a wrist or ankle. You can use this technique to tie your partner to the four corners of the bed or to tie one part of the body to another, for example, an ankle wrist.

1. Take the rope and double it. Most types of tying begin with the resulting loop from doubling. Try to use the rope as efficiently as possible.

2. Imagine that you will tie a hand. Pull about a meter of the rope and throw it through the wrist.

3. Wrap the end of the rope (the one with the loop) around the wrist several times, leaving yourself a reserve. For best comfort, do not wrap more than three times. The pressure on the body depends on what part of it is wrapped with the rope.

4. Cross the end of the rope. Then squeeze it between the wrapped rope and the wrist. Tie the "moving" end of the rope with the one on which you wrap the rope all the time (the "stationary"). There are several ways you can do it. The easiest of these is to make a loop from the "still" end of the rope (the longer one) and wrap it through it.

5. Then pull the loop and tighten. Depending on how slippery the rope is, you may need more knots.

When tightening the rope, it is important to be careful not to tighten it too much.

Remember: there should always be one or two fingers distance between the body and the rope! Have a nice game!
