Beyond the sheets: New perspectives on common things

Learning is fun. There are so many new and exciting things people can do during sex, for example, “figging.” I have heard of this activity before, but had not done much research on it. However, through random motivation, I have decided to look into and share this information with you which will help lead into other activities. This sounds a bit odd, and for many of you it just might be outside the realm of possibilities; however, this activity is enjoyed by many. The most basic explanation is inserting a peeled ginger root into the anus. Important to note at this point is the size of the ginger root. Use something small and slender. It can also be inserted into the urethra or against the clitoris.



However, make sure you can safely and easily remove the ginger from wherever you insert it.

The effects of figging for the individual ranges from some pleasurable pain (yes, there is such a thing as pleasurable pain) to increased arousal and increased orgasm. Before continuing, let me distinguish between pain and pleasurable pain. General pain produces negative feelings, not only physically but also emotionally. Being slapped without your consent or desire is negative.

Being spanked by your partner because you requested it in a specific situation is positive. The main concepts of these include communication, consent, limitations and clear understanding of what is acceptable and what is not.

Now, figging is not an everyday activity. It is primarily used within the BDSM community for specific encounters. Usually the ginger root is inserted when the individual is to receive some sort of punishment whether through spanking or the use of a cane. So, it stands to reason if you are an active member of this community and have experience with practicing these activities safely, you may want to expand your resources. Having said this, it is important to note if you have not experienced or encountered these types of situations personally, do not think you can just jump into one without proper knowledge and instruction.

You may be thinking to yourself all of these ideas sound very odd and are reserved only for specific, “scary” people. This is a common misconception. Many people enjoy the sensations of spanking, or being spanked. While fewer individuals may enjoy the sensations of caning, it is also very common. Ultimately, unless you have experienced these activities, it is unfair to rule them out as potential sexual enhancements.
Further, these can lead into a very popular activity: role play and costumes. The schoolgirl-look is a very common visual turn on. You can add to the mental and physical enticement with the idea of punishment in the form of a couple quick swats to the rump. If you and your partner enjoy this additive, you can always consider adding a bit of ginger root.

There are endless possibilities just by identifying one new activity. As long as it is safe, sane and consensual, there is no reason to not explore it.

Position of the week: The old and the restless
To begin with you will need a rocking chair without arms. The partner to penetrate the other will sit comfortably in the chair. The partner to be penetrated will sit with their back to the other partner and lean forward toward the partner’s feet or the floor. Make sure to firmly grasp each other’s hands in order to provide some security during this position. This position will allow for different angles of penetration but also for the chair to aid in body movement.

Have fun, be safe and happy figging.
