Kinbaku Japan Voices

Who Gets to Speak About Kinbaku?

Who has been speaking about kinbaku until now? In this episode, Yuna reflects on the history of kinbaku in Japan and asks whose voices have been named, centered, and remembered. From early visual representations to modern shows, the focus has often been on the one who ties. Speaking as a rope bottom, this episode explores asymmetry, agency, and the possibility of new voices shaping the future of kinbaku. ========================= This podcast will be released once or twice a month, with updates on Twitter and Instagram.

Rigger and Rope Bottom: What Do These Words Really Mean?

In Japan, the words shibarite (rigger) and uketē (rope bottom) describe the two sides of kinbaku: the one who ties, and the one who is tied. But is the receiver really just “receiving”? Some move, guide, and express through their own bodies. This episode reflects on language, agency, and the dynamic relationship between tying and being tied in Japanese kinbaku. ========================= This podcast will be released once or twice a month, with updates on Twitter and Instagram.
