Self Bondage Manifesto- Outline

Hey All.

I am in the process of editing the Self Bondage Manifesto for publication! YAY details to come…but in the mean time I thought I could wet your appetite (and perhaps something else) with an outline to get you to start thinking about it.

The book will have essays, research, photo documentation, fine art portrayals and how to tutorials!

  1. Hey this sounds awesome. I love tying myself up. Most of the resources I find are about how to combine an element of being powerless while also having an escape mechanism. Personally I don’t mind the idea of having my hands free; I still get to feel the tightness and comfort of the ropes.

    Also I love the idea of tying myself for someone else. I want to explore this further, especially as a submissive. What a fun service to provide a dominant, to prepare myself for him in whatever way he wants. To put so much effort into setting myself up beautifully and usefully in the way which is most pleasing. It is definitely not the traditional way, where sub and bottom are somewhat interchangeable ideas, since really I’d be topping myself in that situation, while still submitting.

    Anyway I would be all over a book or other materials containing info on self ties emphasizing the sensual aspects of bondage. This post is a year and a half old, is this project still on?
