It feels like half the wicks to this page are barely-concealed fetishposting (obsessively cataloguing every time a young woman in her 20s is tied up in an old TV show, yadda yadda). It also veers into People Sit In Chairs : For example, "Held at gunpoint by armed men" happens usually concurrently with this trope, but there's no trope for it. I don't see why "person is restrained to prevent them from escaping" is a trope when it's literally just something that's done in real life and is therefore written in fictional scenarios. Again, "Held at gunpoint" is not a trope and yet somehow this is? The fact that video and image examples had to be banned because of extreme over-posting of young women being tied up in fiction is proof enough.

Edited by IndyRevolution I should probably be doing something else with my life.

What about when it's bound but not gagged like Jenny in Oliver & Company for instance?

Probably doesn't count, then.

If there's anyone monitoring this trope currently, I'm planning on spinning off the "related tropes" section into its own index and removing the indexing function from this page. I'll replace it with a paragraph including links to a few actual subtropes. Please chime in with opinions on the TLP. The preceding Trope Talk thread is here.

Seriously, it's almost 2014, and there's still no image on this page. And there's a few other pages with images of characters who are bound and gagged. Are we ever going to settle on an image?

Personally, I'd rather an image from the manga... or the judge from Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. But that's not the point. The point is that the trope, which is about something that happens a lot in media, should get it's own image. And hopefully before 2020.

You'll need to talk to Fast Eddie about it; he has said that there will be no image.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I was unaware that there was a time limit on this sort of thing.

Well, if an admin/moderator/whatever said there will be no image, the we should stick with it. But while we are here, we should instead add an image of someone who's bound and gagged to the sub-pages (eg: Anime and Manga) to address the problems of everyone trying to add an image at the same time. That's what we did with other pages.

Ahem, if an admin said there will be no image, then we shouldn't try to work around it by sneaking them onto subpages. This page is not imageless because of the medium subpage thing.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Guess there is only one thing left to do before it's official: ask Fast Eddie again. If he says no, then this case is closed forever.

We need to do something about this revolving door of images. Does anyone have a suggestion for an image we can actually agree on?

EDIT: Never mind, the new Image Links page seems to be fine.

What dose Hylarn have against Tied And Gagged Tomboy? They tried to remake it as a subtrope to this trope, but Hylarn removes it again! Can't that handle just chill for once?

Well, honestly, your subtrope does seem pretty pointless.

Hylarn started complaining about a certain subtrope which (s)he still thinks is seperate from this one.

So, what, it was put on the cutlist cuz he's pissed the other one got cut? Lame.

What? I'm as confused as to why this one is here as the rest of you. I've put Tied And Gagged Tomboy on the cutlist twice on the basis that there's no meaningful  *

difference to this trope.

How dare you mock me. There is a reason someone wanted different versions of this trope, so that they can find only what they want and not have to see what they don't! If you don't like it, go suck an egg!

Look, If you want a subtrope of this, you're going to have to come up with some substantial way that it's different when it's a tomboy as opposed to some other character type. And it needs to be something that is specific to tomboys, only. So far, none of your attempts at making "Bound and Gagged Tomboy" have had that. Cutlisting a different trope because one you made is not sufficiently different isn't the way to get anything done.

Seriously, why does the image keep rotating?

Wait. So you're saying you want there to be Tied And Gagged Tomboy just so there's a convenient place for you to find sources for your specific fetish?

That's really not what TV Tropes is for, dude.

Edit: Okay, it was someone else who made the Tied And Gagged Tomboy page from looking at its edit history.

Speaking of, good lord, the whole description of the "trope" is practically screaming, "Degrading and humiliating strong women is the sort of thing that gets me off." I mean, seriously, here's an exerpt:

Sometimes men don't favor a girl for being almost butch, Sometimes men would like a girl better with a gag on, It is possible the local ladette wouldn't be loved unless she had her hands tied behind her back, and her mouth sealed with duct tape.

Can that mean anything other than, "women who aren't girly need to be tied up and taken down a peg"?
