I really haven’t gotten into the art of knot-tying and rope-arrangement with any of my partners. I’ve just happened to encounter a bunch of function over form people who prefer to leap into action rather than take time in painstakingly spacing and tying each knot. It’s never really a problem for me, either. I love just getting down to business.
But, there’s really something so sexy about having to lie there and wait while your partner goes through the motions of neatly arranging the patterns in the rope work. I doubt I could hold still so long without just breaking down and begging him/her to get the show on the road. But, hm, maybe knot-tying itself is a form of sadism.
