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.

Girls can play too!

When it comes to voluntary surgical genital modification, it is largely a boys club.

While there are more options for males, females are not completely out of the game. Amongst female modifications, the clitoral hood splitting or hood removal is one of the more common options. Lot’s of women are cursed with a hood that does not allow their clitoris to be exposed, even when erect. A slit to open it up, or a removal (partial or complete) can open up a whole new world of sexual pleasure for women with that problem. For other women who’s clitoris is exposed during arousal, these procedures can allow more of it to be so, which can heighten the sensitivity allowing orgasm’s to more easily be obtained.

As a female interested in genital work, Dawnie had a hard time finding information on the subject. So when she decided to go through with getting the procedure herself, she was thoughtful enough to write a  experience (membership required to view) on the subject. She is very open about her procedure and willing to talk to people who may be interested in learning from her experience with it. So if you, or someone you know are considering or could benefit from such a procedure, start doing some research, get a BME membership if you haven’t one already, and talk to people who have gotten these procedures.

For a look at her healed partial hood removal, keep on reading.

    Whatever happened to Todd Bertrang? IIRC, at first he was widely derided by BME’s denizens, then embraced – and then hauled off to jail for unlicensed surgery (clitoral hood removal and clitoridectomy).

    To the best of my knowledge, he is still serving time. Although, if I recall correctly (don’t quote me on this) they couldn’t get any solid evidence against him and arrested him on frivolous charges of child pornography for having a totally innocent shirtless picture of his partner Robyn’s like 2 or 3 year old daughter posted on a personal website, just like many families would now on facebook or myspace.

    Todd is on my list of upcoming From The Vault entries, I am going to try and dig up some current info for that.

    i think a lot of girls stay quiet on the issue cuz they understand the risk of getting the practitioner in a lot of legal trouble…
    the law is very cut and dry in most jurisdictions regarding female genital procedures.. there isn’t a gray area…

    Makingtrouble: If that’s what you’re worried about, maybe try hood splitting before going full speed to a removal?

    I’m contemplating a hood split myself… kudos to you for sharing your genital mods with the rest of us, dawnie! If we had more experiences and images like this shared, I think a lot of women would be less intimidated by genital mods!

    I had a VCH piercing which I stretched and later split. I love it, it’s not the most drastic mod but it gives the clit more room to make itself known, it’s lovely.
