BME: Body Modification Ezine

A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Lucky BMEboys Saturday 13/15

Written by

Shannon Larratt

Shawn O’Hare from Charlies House of Tattoos in Camarillo, CA, sends in this celebrity appearance and sneak teaser from British Television’s Sin Cities, who met up with a number of BME folks in North America while filming their new season. It airs as well on Showcase/Showtime in North America (I don’t know the schedule for this season though). I enjoy the show a great deal — if you haven’t checked it out, it’s a lot of fun and I think handles different sexual and fetish adventures with a great sense of humor and acceptance.

And of course I know a few girls with crushes on Ashley!

    Shannon – the episode I’m thinking of had him face to face with someone else also suspending and they slowly winched themselves up…

  • Suspended, Not Silenced

    There’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
