I like the sometimes power struggle between my partner and I that I know I will eventually lose, but I get hot thinking about. I like being taken down with a rope forced tightly across my chest or throat and my partner hovering above me, smirking evilly with the knowledge that he has won.

I revel in the feeling of completion when I’ve created what is, essentially, a work of art…a beautiful portrait…a lovely rope-covered sculpture.
