I don't know enough to even answer your question, Steph. I did see a fairly intricate arms-tied-together-behind-the-back picture that I've now lost, but I'd have no idea if it qualifies as shibari or not.
I wasn't sure if you wanted references for the kind of quick tie-'em-up ties you'd see in TV or movies when a bad guy is caught (or a good guy caught). I think I was thinking of your fanart.
That said, I can definitely give you links for non-fancy ties as well as shibari (which is also *quite* functional; just also pretty while being restrictive).
Also, pictures of men tied up would be *highly* appreciated.
Oh, I can definitely help you there. (Note: not pictures of Tim. I'm not sure I have any of him tied up, anyway. The only time I think to grab the camera is when a cat decides to interfere, because that is COMEDY GOLD.)
Yeah, that is not a process. That is just fucked up.
In local news, there were reports of a guy with a shotgun in a local mall, but it turned out to be an umbrella. It's raining out. Makes me wonder what the guy looked like....

Yeah.
Maybe it's not a good idea for me to buy that umbrella with a samurai-sword handle.
Sorry, smonster much job~ma.
I may join you in laid-offness tomorrow.

Noooo! Economic upturn, how could you?!
::raises a glass to Gud:: May you not join me, my friend.
Most of the Japanese rope tying I've seen has been women. Great knots, though.

I got connections, man.
No, you're right that most of it tends to be on women, partly because the ties work so well with boobies and whatnot. But, uh, I can find pictures of dudes tied up.
Failing that, I am willing to take one for the team (Team ita!) and tie up a fully-clothed Tim and take pictures. Because I'm a giver.
FUCK, GUD!!!!
I think I was thinking of your fanart.
It will be fanart, and I have to say it says something about either me or fanart in general that I'm doing sexual bondage before peril bondage. Obviously I should be mixing the two to reconcile this discrepancy.
I'm so sorry, smonster.
And I hope laid-off doesn't happen tomorrow, Gud.
