What is Figging?

Figging is a BDSM practice that involves inserting a piece of peeled ginger root into the anus or vagina. The ginger root contains a chemical called gingerol, which causes a burning sensation when it comes into contact with skin. This sensation can be both pleasurable and painful, and is often used as a form of punishment or humiliation.

How to Do Figging Safely

While figging can be a fun and exciting experience, it is important to do it safely to avoid injury or infection. Here are some tips to help you get started:

• Choose a fresh, firm piece of ginger root that is about the size and shape of your finger.
• Peel the ginger root and shape it into a smooth, tapered shape that is easy to insert.
• Use plenty of water-based lube to help the ginger root slide in smoothly.
• Start slowly and gently, and listen to your body’s signals. If it feels uncomfortable or painful, stop immediately.
• After use, remove the ginger root and clean the area thoroughly with soap and water to prevent infection.
• Never share your ginger root with anyone else, as this can spread infection.

Why Do People Enjoy Figging?

Figging can be a thrilling experience for both the giver and receiver. The burning sensation caused by the ginger root can increase sensitivity and arousal, leading to more intense orgasms. It can also be used as a form of punishment or humiliation in BDSM play, adding an extra layer of psychological stimulation.

However, it is important to remember that figging is not for everyone. It should only be done with a willing and consenting partner, and all safety precautions should be taken to avoid injury or infection.
