the-southern-airhead: bdsm-sex-relationship-guide: Figging is the practice of inserting a piece of ginger root into the anus or vagina. The ginger, skinned and often carved into the shape of a butt plug, causes an intense burning sensation and discomfort to the subject. If the person being figged tightens the muscles of the anus, the sensation becomes more intense. This technique was utilized as a means of punishment and humiliation to female offenders in the Victorian age, it was first invented for use on female slaves in Ancient Greece and later also used in the Roman Empire. It was also applied to horses in a practice known as gingering. It now most-commonly refers to a practice in BDSM. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Just mentioning figging sends shivers up babygirl’s spine. We’ve never done it, but she is nearly terrified to try it. Figging has been a major deterrent of bad behavior in our long distance relationship. I believe the fact that she’s never experienced it has made it way more effective for altering her behavior. She doesn’t know what it’s like, and that amplifies her fear of it more than anything. She has willingly consented to trying it, so it is fair game as a punishment; however, I’m saving it in my tool bag for now. Like I said, her fear of it has been enough for quite a long time. I saw this meme and figured I’d share it along with a little information on the practice. If for no other reason, it at least keeps it fresh in babygirl’s mind. ;) -Sir History is just so good for someone with a misogyny kink. Like, it’s so patriarchal — they literally used the same punishment on women as horses. They wouldn’t have done that shit to a male criminal. Criminals went to prison, Goddamnit. But a female committed a crime and her legally sanctioned punishment was to receive and hold a piece of stinging fruit in her own asshole. It just makes sense, doesn’t it? Women can’t be punished like people otherwise they won’t learn. Women have to be penetrated, breached, humiliated and disgraced in order to learn a lesson. God, I love history -- source link
