Ep129: Exploring Your Intent in Rope Bondage
‘Intent’ in rope is mentioned a lot in rope circles, but can feel a bit ethereal and hard to pin down. The podcast hosts think it’s pretty important to be on the same page about your intent in rope when you go into a scene - but what, then, IS intent in rope? And why, exactly, is it important?
In this episode, Fox and Mya try to make the topic more practical and explore:
* A definition of intent in rope and its possible consequences
* Practical implications of not being on the same page about intent
* The 12 types of possible intent that we could think of (so far!)
* Questions to ask to try and understand each others’ intent better
* When/whether you ‘should’ always share your intent with your scene partner
* Can you have more than one intent during a scene?
* The importance of agreeing not to play if your intents are incompatible (and why)
* Ways to get over different intents (assuming you have overlap in your ‘venn diagram of intent’)
* When and how intent can vary even between the same two partners
