What rope to use for short drop hanging?

I can't find a good answer as to what rope I should use for simple suspension. Should it be an inflexible, strong rope like hemp or manila, or a flexible one made of cotton or polyester? Also is 3/4 in or 1in more effective?

Thanks to anyone who can answer this.
