ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Bondage rigger

Okay, so you know how sometimes grown-ups like to play games where they pretend to be animals or superheroes or other things? Well, some grown-ups like to play a game where they tie each other up with ropes.

There is a special grown-up called a bondage rigger who is really good at making the ropes go in different ways to make the person being tied up feel different things. Sometimes they might tie the ropes so the person feels really tight and secure, like a cocoon. Other times they might tie the ropes so the person can't move their arms or legs very well, which can feel exciting and thrilling for some people.

It's really important for the bondage rigger to be very careful and make sure the person being tied up is comfortable and not in any pain. They also need to know how to tie the ropes in a way that won't hurt the person or make them feel uncomfortable later.

So, being a bondage rigger is kind of like being an artist who uses ropes instead of paint or clay. They create beautiful and intricate designs with the rope, and make sure that everyone involved in the game is having fun and feeling safe.
