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.

    I don’t know about this kind of thing, personally I don’t call it modifying one’s body, I call it externalizing deep seated emotional issues about sex or one’s sexuality… but that’s just me.

    That looks really painful, but I bet once the burns heal they’d look neat.

    I always wondered what turns people on to gential burning and mutilation…? Self hatred? Abused as a child? i dun know… the only thing i do know is that it is not for me… *sings* ” you can wrap it up in ribbons, you can slip it in a sock, but don’t tak it out in public or they’ll slip you in the dock and you won’t come back…”

    Salinger/Gato – Sensation is sensation. Some people draw different lines between pleasure and pain than others. For you this would be unhealthy, but for someone else it isn’t. People are not all the same, and it’s unreasonable to assume that everyone gets turned on by the same things as you do.

    I say: And that’s different from modifying one’s body how? Many, many people use body modification (tattoos, piercings, and yes, burning oneself with cigarettes) to “externalize deep seated emotional issues”. I don’t think it’s fair to try to separate the two. Doing so gives legitmacy to people who use body mods for purely aesthetic reasons, and robs legitimacy from those who don’t.

    That HAS to hurt.. there’s no humanly possible way that that didn’t hurt.. but question is.. did he like it?

    My concern is with infection as well, simply because of the crap that actually is in cigarettes.. , however ive discovered that a human body in general average form is incredibly resistant to infections. i mean.. extreme tolerance. i was amazed. so i highly doubt this guy will have trouble.. it just looks so raw and … diseased .. but i guess if he takes good care of it… eeeouch

    two things: Heavy scarring and previous scarring. Something tells me we’re going to see this same penis lying on a cutting board someday. Or in a jar, or being cooked, or maybe the balls out, or just some combination. Has BME ever considered a Castration/penectomy Pool? You choose to enter, all the wannabe Eunuchs/smoothies get a shot and let people bet as a fundraiser. The winnings would be ‘split’ amongst the winner and a scholarship ‘awardee’ case who wants the proceedure. God its late…I know something’s wrong when I’m trying to ideate to help out the ‘nuts off’ brigade. Glad there’s space for it all here, whatever people think.

    Of course it ‘has to hurt’. For a good many people, that’s the whole point.

    That said, yikes.

    No, it feels like petting kittens. WTF?
