Ep145: Labels in Rope Bondage

There are a SURPRISING number of labels people use in rope, some of which have leaked over from other aspects of BDSM, and some of which are unique to rope bondage. In this episode, fox and Mya explore - and sometimes disagree on! - what these can mean, sharing some of the different meanings that can be associated with these labels. This discussion provides a starting point for you to have with the people you do rope with about their labels, and is definitely NOT the definitive guide - we know communities, cultures, individuals all bring different perspectives, and we encourage you to talk to others about their labels, why they chose them (if they did!) and making sure you’re both using the label that suits them, and you understand what they mean by chasing it. It’s a helpful way to discover more about each other! Also learn in the episode: • 12+ labels that the podcast hosts can think of that people use in rope • fox and Mya’s preferred labels • Whether you can have more than one label • A little bit of Thai from fox • Some of the more controversial terms, and why that might be the case • Caution around gender and stereotyping in labels • Areas where labels might be lacking • Benefits of labels - and the downsides • Why humans like labels • How might you choose one or more labels in rope, if you want to • A question from Mya about the rope world and their relationship to labels We fully expect (and encourage!) listeners to disagree with our definitions, so tell us in the comments: **What label/s do you use in rope? What does it mean to you?**
