Talk:Bondage positions and methods

message: Should we delete Monoglove?  It's a piece of equipment that forces you into a position, like a straitjacket, rather than a position or method in itself.--Taxwoman 13:25, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  No, it's also used in bondage to describe the same position. Arms secured behind the back to each other end up in one of three positions, horizontally secured to each other in a box tie, lifted vertically upwards in a reverse prayer of some form, or held vertically downwards in a monoglove position, both in various debrees of severity according the the thtent the elbows come together. The methods used are usually either rope or a strap, although occasionally forms of metal bondage are also used. The second form is sometimes the starting point of strappado leverage. Because there is no other position approaching this, the trem monoglove is used even when when the leather equipment isn't. Forms of monoglove also exist to reinforce the box tie. The reverse prayer position is borrowed from yoga, which rarely approaches the bondage version in severity.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.219.67.246 (talk) 02:08, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

message: It would be really helpful if someone who is a practitioner could upload some copyright free images to commons that illustrate some of the points in this article. Please ask for help if you are unsure. Here is the Upload Wizard. You put them in the category Rope bondage.--ClemRutter (talk) 18:25, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

message: This article Bondage positions and methods is concentrating on the details of rope bondage while the parent article Rope bondage has little content, and talks about methods other than rope. This article is now largely referenced- and no longer reads as a tutorial, but needs to be structured and have a consistent writing style. Do we need both articles? Should their titles be swapped? Another pair of eyes would be welcome. --ClemRutter (talk) 15:15, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The Rope bondage article might benefit from some of the content here, but the focus there should be more about the "rope" part and not the "positions" part, which belongs here.  Most of the positions in this article are possible (and in some cases, more practical) with other equipment like leather restraints and clips or chains, and I would support replacing some of the images here with such counterparts.  But I don't necessarily agree that this article is "concentrating on the details of rope bondage", but rather it is using rope to support the description of the positions.  I'll admit I wrote that sentence without reading the entire article to support my opinion, and it might benefit from a rewrite to include other equipment, as with my thoughts on replacing the images.  So a slight touch-up to make this one more comprehensive (including men in the bound positions) would be welcome. HalJor (talk) 16:09, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: The broader picture- these articles are both off-focus

message: The page needs rewriting, please, in a less gender-specific manner. That's not just for legal reasons, but also for objectivity: the domain is one of sexual liberty, and although men and women in it are still psychologically normal, their relationships have developed significantly, such that you are far more likely to find them switching roles on occasion. You also find far more of other forms of liberal behaviour involved, such as gay and binary individuals. You cannot presume the subordinate deing secured is always female, it never was and these days most certainly isn't: the role of partnership means power exchange is far more likely these days.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.219.67.246 (talk) 02:19, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

message: The main description explicitly states that bondage is done "...for mutual erotic pleasure. While often done for sexual purposes, especially the content that is most popular in the media, the practice itself may be done for other intimate reasons, in other words, just intimacy in general, not specifically sexually. The assumption that it is sexual in nature misrepresents the subject, contributing to stereotypes about the subject and just general misinformation. 73.66.246.225 (talk) 02:17, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
