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.

One of my inspirations

It’s no secret that I really like x-rated tattoos, assuming they’re well done and sit nicely on the body. Slave Butterfly‘s ever-growing highly explicit tattoo was one of the pieces of artwork that inspired me — I’m a huge fan of her aesthetic.

    Yea, I was just going to ask about the piercings – thats one way to avoid camel toe in tight pants.

    I love the way the tatt will look quite mundane (albeit beautiful) with low slung jeans on.

    I’m trying to imagine how much noise she makes when she walks. It’s a funny mental… sound?

    I always thought her tattoos were amazing… I mean, I’d never get that design on myself or anything but I think the artwork is extremely well done. 😀

    I LOVE slave butterfly. She’s probably the most interesting read on BME. I LOVE HER!!!! Seriously, go back to her very first diary entries and read. It’s like poetry! And yet she’s so explicit on her body. I am just extremely fascinated by her. I might even consider getting a slave butterfly tribute tattoo some day.

    The tattoo sits nicely on her body shape and it’s obviously well done, but personally I think it’s pretty horrible. Although I’d imagine it comes as quite the surprise to anyone who thinks she just has a butterfly tramp stamp before she takes her clothes off!

    This is fantastic! I love the red going into the intimacy of her buttocks and it is like a magnet for my tongue which would love to explore there and cuddle in her anus. Also love the jewelry on the lips. This is as erotic as anything I have seen.
