2007.11.21 濡木痴夢男のおしゃべり芝居 第二十二回 Nureki Chimuo’s Talking Theater Chapter 22 「調教師」、そして昨日縛ったモデルのこと The “Trainer” and the model I tied yesterday I dislike being called “rope master,” but I dislike being labelled a “trainer28 ” in adult magazines even more. (Here again is that “master [師]” kanji I detest.…
Read translationThe People Who “Advised” Me
I’ve received “advice” from various people over the years. Looking up the word “advice” in the dictionary at hand, it reads, “Kindly admonishing someone about their faults.” So that’s it; people were kindly trying to correct my “bad points.” I’ll write a little about those “kind” people. Since they …
Read translationThe Pleasure of a Single Rope
The words of Minomura-san introduced in the 21st chapter, “The Mindset of Calling Oneself a ‘Rope Master,” “Without a sense of shame, fear, and modesty, the ropes you bind with won’t have any sensuality,” are truly wonderful words, aren’t they? Somehow, I felt my thoughts on SM were succinctly expre…
Read translationFlower Cord and M Aura
Mika Suzume-san, the foremost reader of this “Talking Theater” and someone who always gives me stimulating and appropriate advice, shared this impression with me: “There’s also SM that can be felt even when simply tied up with a single handkerchief.” That is indeed the case. I wrote about this last …
Read translationThe Desire for Bound Wrists
Even if the cleaning is thorough, it’s still a carpet on the floor. The female staff members, of course, and all visitors come and go wearing their shoes. On the floor of that office, Rakka-san lies defenseless, hands bound behind her back. Even if someone is half-fainting, a normal person (though n…
Read translationInside a Coffee Shop
Of course, Rakka-san is reading this “Talking Theater” of mine. I wrote before that Mika Suzume-san is the primary reader of my writing, but perhaps Rakka-san is the primary reader after all. That would make Mika Suzume-san the secondary reader. If asked what criteria I used to determine first or se…
Read translationI Don’t Like Excessive Ropes
At the Sex Industry Museum in Iidabashi, I was shown some wonderful photographs by the director, Nakahara Rutsu. This is an old photograph believed to have been taken approximately sixty years ago; or perhaps even earlier. Since it’s a photo I see and I say “wonderful,” it naturally has to be one of…
Read translationPleasure Fantasy Material
I recently came across a text written by someone other than Itoh Seiu that discusses the Nakamura-za theater, where Itoh Seiu hired male and female actors to stage “shame plays,” performances he created and enjoyed as he pleased, under various titles. It is the eighth issue of “Hongo,” a community t…
Read translationA Sepia-toned Dream
The “punishment photographs” from about seventy years ago, now stored in the sex museum, were shot using actors from popular theater troupes. Beyond the tattooed men and women from the period pieces mentioned above, there are still more. There are six sequential photographs depicting a merchant’s wi…
Read translationThe Stepchild Bullying Drama was Entertaining!
In my last two entries, I wrote about a photo shoot featuring what I imagine to be “punishment photos” of an actress from a travelling theater troupe eighty years ago, bound and taken away. That is to say, it’s a story born from the imagination that bubbled up, surged and swelled within me while gaz…
Read translationThe Sakura Sennosuke Troupe
Sakura Sennosuke’s troupe play “Bullying the Stepchild” featured various ingenious touches within its simple storyline. Careful consideration was given to ensure that patrons who came to watch every night would not grow bored. It must be the wisdom of daily-changing plays. As punishment for constant…
Read translationKoume’s Red Rice-grain Nipples
Note: This chapter references many forms of Japanese music and dance forms, as well as historical figures. I have provided links to these for additional context, and hopefully immersion. Some of the songs have actual recordings to which I have linked, and while the music may be different from what w…
Read translationBoth my Father and my Mother are Idiots
2008.3.28 濡木痴夢男のおしゃべり芝居 第三十四回 Nureki Chimuo’s Talking Theater Chapter 34 父も母もバカ Both my father and my mother are idiots I once wrote about my parents, “What idiotic parents they are, I’m appalled.” It was during the immediate postwar period of food shortages, when they were struggling to feed their …
Read translationMy Tomboy Aunt Sumiko
When I bind Rakka-san, I usually stand diagonally to her right, behind her. When I observe her, Rakka-san is usually facing her desk, seated in her chair. She has both hands on the desk, working on something. During that work, a small opening appears. Or she pauses to take a break. I bind her by sei…
Read translationInside the Hamburger Shop
I had a conversation with Rakka-san on the second floor of the McDonald’s near Station A on the Saikyo Line. Perhaps because it’s a holiday, the restaurant is packed with young men and women. There are also several couples with children. Quite a few older men and women are here too. In front of the …
Read translationThe Silent Firefly
I got so excited and carried away that I ended up writing only about the beauty and eroticism of Rakka-san’s body. I still haven’t written everything. There’s more I want to write. I must write more meticulously and carefully. For example, when describing her wrist and fingers, it goes like this. Th…
Read translationTo E-san and Nagai Natsu
It’s already been over a month since I wrote the previous “The Silent Firefly…” for this “Talking Theater” series. Recently, I’ve been getting constant reminders from my manager, R-san. To begin with, it’s R-san who encouraged me to write the “Talking Theater,” typed up all my handwritten manuscript…
Read translationAn Artist Who Truly Loves Tying
My room is filled with materials related to what you might call “SM” and theater. Amidst the piles of documents stacked up to the ceiling, I’m writing my manuscript. There are various materials available, but when it comes to SM-related content, publications (specifically magazines) still dominate t…
Read translationLandscape of Ruins
I had a long chat with R-san, who’s handling all the details of writing and publishing this “Talking Theater,” about Yusuke Aoyagi’s manga. One of them. In the editor’s note of the monthly manga magazine “Gekiga Select” published by Geibun-sha, which I introduced last time, there is a passage that r…
