Benefits of Using Rope

An essential part of BDSM is the power dynamic among partners. And the expression of this power dynamic can take a lot of forms. From latex and foot fetishes to whipping and anime cosplay, there is no limit except imagination and consent. From this point of view, rope may seem like a boring, outdated option. However, there are many benefits of using rope when it comes to the power dynamic of a couple.

The first benefit is that, actually, it is very cheap. That is, handmade ropes can be quite expensive. However, you can start a bondage kit with a relatively low budget and cotton ropes. Then, you can try a couple of scenes and see if you really like bondage. If that’s the case, you can make a higher investment and buy professional jute ropes and some equipment. Other kinks are way more expensive.

The second benefit is the power behind restraint. Limitation of movement is one of the clearest forms of domination. Tying someone sends a strong message about who is the dominant partner. Of course, if you try a more artistic form of bondage, domination becomes more subtle. But the essence of Shibari is restraint. And it’s always there, even in the most artistic scene.

Ropes are easy to find. You don’t even have to go to a sex shop to buy them. You can go to a regular store or buy them online. This makes things a lot easier for some people, especially beginners. If you’re trying to initiate someone in kink, they might feel overwhelmed if you take them to a sex shop. Instead, rope is something anyone has seen and handled, kink or not.

Finally, ropes are versatile. We began the article by mentioning how kink is an opportunity to unleash your imagination. In a certain way, rope is like the adult version of Lego. It offers a wide range of possibilities.

Now you know the benefits of using rope.
