Shinju (from the Japanese meaning pearl) is a torture technique applied to women in the Japanese bondage technique. Humiliation with mild or severe pain is caused by tying different kinds of ropes and knots round women's breasts. Breasts can be tied to look like grapefruits or they can be pressed flat. This technique may cause serious damage if the blood flow to breasts is interrupted for too long.

However, classic shinju is not related to torture. It is done by encircling the torso with rope, both above and below the breasts, sometimes with cinches between the arms and the body. Then take the primary rope from the centre of the back over one shoulder, entwining both torso loops, and then back over the other shoulder, tying or weaving the rope to secure at the back.

The key to shinju is that the rope is, when done properly, never tied, it is weaved and intertwined. The same strand of rope is used to "tie" the submissive up. When done correcting tension can be applied to the end of the rope that then pulls tension throughout the weave.

Like this for example . . .



One strand of rope is used to intertwine the entire body, keeping the person restrained, but not in pain. If the proper amount of tension is applied.

Notice how the rope starts at the torso, and wraps over the shoulders, so that it can then be pulled to wrap the hands (at the wrists) behind the back, and then at the buttocks to then secure the legs (many times in several places) at the ankles and sometimes the thighs or knees.



It is, as many things, something that must be learned and practiced to be able to do it properly and without harm to the person being bound.

A practice that has been around for centuries, and obviously is something desired within some humans souls. If it weren't for supply and demand, things wouldn't be around.

Eternally . . . Her_Slave

I swear I am fit to be tied.

Some people don't really mean that when they say it. They have no idea what it is like to be "fit to be tied". There is a surrendering of oneself, in such a situation.

There is an art and a talent to it. I would say that it is something like being a teacher. Which is really what a mistress does for her slave. Although the desire is there, the discipline is not. And so the mistress must "teach" the slave, so that he can be a better person, without all his inadaqucies.

I would venture to say that being restrained teaches one the lack of power that we assume we have as men. Granted it is voluntary, but subconciously men put up barriers to keep themselves from feeling vunderable. But that is the high, the jones, of bondage with an experienced mistress. It is giving her all of you.

Like many things bondage, is misunderstood by some (like most fears and prejudices), but I hope to explain just what it means to people, or at least me, and thereby shed some light on this practice, that for some reason, still goes on in the dark.
