The Toybag Guide to Basic Rope Bondage
Jay Wiseman's short portable guide to rope bondage basics in Greenery Press's Toybag Guide series, covering knots, limb ties and common positions.
The Toybag Guide to Basic Rope Bondage is a short book by Jay Wiseman in Greenery Press’s Toybag Guide series. Hares & Hyenas gives August 2010 as the publication date and 112 pages and lists the book as out of print since January 2019.
The publisher’s description, as reproduced by the bookseller, calls it a portable guide to the basics. It presents rope as a cheap, flexible alternative to expensive single-purpose restraints and promises the foundations, knots and positions needed for tying limbs, spread-eagles and hogties. The author note introduces Wiseman as the writer of SM 101 and Jay Wiseman’s Erotic Bondage Handbook and as an educator, workshop leader and activist with more than 35 years of experience in BDSM who helped build the community in the San Francisco area; English Wikipedia describes him as an author, educator and expert legal witness on BDSM.
Like the Erotic Bondage Handbook, the guide’s description does not refer to Japanese rope specifically. This entry describes the book as a publication and does not reproduce its instructions.
