The Land of the Rising Sun is known as the birthplace of fine arts, for example, ikebana and origami. But not everyone knows what shibari is, which in Japan is also considered a kind of creative activity.
What is shibari?
In translation from the source language, the word means "overtaking". And as a matter of fact shibari is the art of binding by rope, "weaving knots" on the naked body of a partner during a love game, a kind of way to please him with echoes of BDSM. It's no secret that many women or even men like to be dominated over in bed. And with the help of this Japanese technique, you can not only satisfy such a desire, but also make it aesthetic, adding thrills during sex.
The Art of Shibari: History
Strangely enough, the basis of the shibari-tying is the combat use of ropes, the purpose of which was to cause the captive enemy as much as possible discomfort. And for peaceful purposes, ropes began to be used only a hundred years ago. The tradition was laid by the kabuki theater, on the stage of which erotic performances were started with extremely frank scenes. Then they were replicated in the form of a photo, and after that they were already arbitrarily separated into a kind of art.
Features of the shibari technique
Linking shibari technically is quite difficult. Firstly, because the strapping should look beautiful and harmonious. Secondly, they should not cause unpleasant feelings to the partner and, moreover, should not cause trauma. The knots on the naked body are tied to form a single composition and allow one to fully experience their own nakedness and defenselessness. You can not tie your neck, armpits, compress arteries and lymph nodes. It is important to understand the partner's desires and tighten the rope exactly to such a degree as to give him maximum pleasure.
