A rigger is a dominant who enjoys controlling a submissive by the use of bondage and restraint. Rigger is a term that is commonly connected to a person who enjoys tying ropes. However, a rigger can use other things to restrain a submissive.

Control with bondage for a rigger is a favourite. They may like their submissive to fight back or be bratty or may enjoy it when a submissive is meek as stays still. A rigger may enjoy other dominant activities. If they have a sadist streak they may enjoy combining impact play with their bondage. Wax play is something else riggers can enjoy adding into their bondage play.

Which BDSM archetype matches well with a rigger?

Bondage is a very common part of BDSM play, and so most dominants will display some rigger traits. Riggers however, enjoy the control by bondage aspect of BDSM the most. Because of this they match up the best with rope bunnies. Rope bunnies enjoy being restrained with all kinds of things, not just rope.

How do riggers use rope for bondage?

Riggers who enjoy rope may do so for practical reasons. Rope can be used quickly and easily to secure a submissive. It can be cheap and easy to buy too. However, some riggers may enjoy more artistic methods of tying such as shibari and kinbaku, both Japanese styles of restraints. They may enjoy using rope to lift a submissive off the ground in a suspension or may be more into hog ties that leave the submissive on the ground but totally immobilised. There are different kinds of ropes a rigger can use to, that will give different sensations to the submissive and may require different approaches when tying.

What other BDSM equipment do riggers use?

Chain is a common restraint riggers use, as are handcuffs and manacles. They may use spreader bars, straight jackets or stocks and pillories to restrain their submissive. This might be simply for BDSM play or it may be part of the rigger’s sexual play too.

Where can I learn more about rigging?

    A submissive who enjoys being restrained is called a rope bunny. They don’t have to be restrained by rope. Chain can be used or spreader bars, items of clothing or handcuffs. A rope bunny enjoys the constriction of restraint. A rope bunny may really enjoy rope. The feel and the constriction as well as the artistic value of the ties. They may enjoy being suspended in rope too. There are all kinds of rope, with different sensations from soft to scratchy. A masochistic rope bunny will enjoy extra pain with their restraint and may like to mix restraints with impact play. Some rope bunnies are very into the artistic element of rope. Enjoying being part of shibari and kinbaku rope ties. This kind of bunny in particular will need a rigger to play with, as it takes time and practise to tie in these artistic ways. Other rope bunnies are more interested in the bondage element. Not really bothered about how they’re restrained, just that they are. Rope bunny is an all-encompassing term for a submissive who enjoys being controlled by restraint. This can be purely a kink thing, or it might be a sexual turn on too. Bondage play doesn’t have to be sexual, just like any other BDSM play it can be very satisfying on it’s own. As with any classification of submissive there are many different preferences a rope bunny could prefer. Some may be very much into the feel of cold chain, others may enjoy the ungiving nature of wooden stocks and pillories.
    Dominants like to be in control. Unlike BDSM tops or sadists, their need is not particularly to inflict pain but to be domineering and have control over another person. Some Doms/Dommes expect to be obeyed immediately and without questions. Others enjoy being tested, and having to show their dominance over the submissive who’s being bratty. There is no one way to be a Dominant. Dom/Dommes can also be sadists, tops, masters or riggers. Dominant is a huge category of BDSM made up of many very different people who all have one thing in common, their need to be in control. The D in the term BDSM stands for Dominance, therefore Dominants are an instrumental part of BDSM. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
    A submissive likes to be controlled, relishing someone else taking responsibility away from them. Some are subservient and submit willingly. Others are brattier and put up a fight. There are also submissives who will fight sometimes and be subservient at others. Submission can be confined to the bedroom or only taken out to BDSM and Fetish clubs and dungeons or it can used in all kinds of day to day situations. Some submissives chose to be subservient in all their roles, others take on submission to escape the responsibilities of work and family life. Submissives let someone else take control. They may have a list of rules to abide by set by their Dom/Domme. If rules are broken then there will be punishments too as well as rewards for good behaviour. Some submissives love to be naughty and punished, others want to be good and strive to do their best and be rewarded. Others will want a mix of the two. It isn’t all about humiliation and degradation for a submissive, unlike other bottoms they are more concerned with being subservient and giving over control to another person. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
