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.

Not so innocent, are we?

So assuming you don’t find genital piercings to be particularly close to the borders of kink — or at least perceive the experience of having the piercing done as about as erotic as a visit to the doctor — the photo below probably won’t seem that odd to you. That is, until you look at what’s around her neck and the not-quite-a-blanket “safety blanket” she’s clutching.

    Hmm, I’m not to sure that looking at the picture is enough to condemn you to eternal damnation, but that’s just me talking.
