Since I guess the last one in my growing “guess what” series was too easy for everyone, see if you can guess this one without peeking. If you can’t tell at all, disqualify yourself and click through and there’s a couple more pictures of it that will make it obvious. Otherwise, try posting your guess before clicking.

Following up a little on Mark’s lip silicone and the questions about removal, Fignutz had some problems with a genital injection in which the material extruded through skin leaving a fistulous (nonhealing) tract that took two years of debridement (dead tissue cutting and removal) to heal. He explains,
The initial mod looked like many of those in this section [members link] — something potato or tuber-like. Huge, but ugly with loss of sensation. If you must do this mod, less is better. It’s like the gambler who can’t quit while s/he is ahead. Eventually the odds prevail to your disadvantage. Either tissue necrosis (cell death) due to pressure from the large volume of injected material occurs; the injected material acts as an irritant or toxin; infection occurs; and/or the preservative found in the injected matrix causes a local immune reaction (seen with “KY” and other water soluble lubricants, or some forms of saline used to reconstitute collagen).
Although it is never safe, wise or recommended to perform this genital mod, by far the only substance I would consider is Saline (isotonic 0.9% WITHOUT preservative, sometimes called “Bacteriostatic Saline). I will repeat that it MUST be isotonic (0.9%)saline , which means it is approximately the same concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl)as the normal surrounding tissue. Several other concentrations do exist, as well as injectable sterile water, but these (including water) are guaranteed to cause tissue damage. The modding and enlargement effects of saline, being water soluable, does wear off in a relatively short period of time, so it is a temporary mod, which is usually a good thing. Repeated administration can lead to scarring, fibrosis, chordee and infection however, so unless you’re willing to take the risk, I suggest you get yourself some nice ink, or a frenum, like I did. (I won’t get into the risks of THAT for now!)
Luckily it looks like he’s healed quite well. Many people are not so lucky — check out the interview with Impgrin for someone who had far less luck.

Kobe in Japan sent in this photo of his partner’s continuing genital tattooing work. As you can see they’ve not only been doing pubic/outer labia tattoos, but also some clit tattooing (yowch!), and work on the hood and inside inner labia as well. Click it for the uncensored photo.

Ok, maybe he’s not vermicious, but he’s definitely piercing something worm-like.
(The dialogue is just brilliant!)

“Another fun day at Sid’s Silver Anchor shop – this time focused on piercing. I have this marked as 1981, but the date could be a bit off. This series of clips features the infamous “Big Ed” Fenster, who later went on to use the Silver Anchor name for his upstart body jewelry company. As always, I hope you enjoy these glimpses into our history.
There’ll be more coming soon! – Shawn Porter/SPCOnline”

So iam:writingonthewalls thinks he’s the coolest (Evan agrees) with his 11mm tongue piercing and his “Blue Bella” drink while partying in Bali, Indonesia… My friend Oleg from Russia (check out his BME/HARD gallery for loads more), begs to differ, and invites them both over for a drink — his photo is after the break.

The tunnels in the picture are 40mm and 46mm to put it into context. Click the picture to get a full view that shows this person’s impressive mods. Loads more are in tomorrow’s BME update.

…or gone very right, depending on your goals.
A while back someone sent me a link to a site that purports to be about on-purpose infestation of pubic lice, which I was reminded of when I got this “mosquito attack” photoshoot, which I figure is in the same arena, related to play piercing, suspension, and other games that use your body’s nervous system in atypical ways to achieve pleasure of one sort or another. Continue reading if you dare.

It surprises me that a lot of the time when I post genital splitting photos, there’s a chorus of people ask “why?” The simple answer is that because genitals are saturated with nerves, it feels good to have more of them exposed — as painful as one assumes the initial procedure is (although really, it isn’t). If you don’t mind guy on guy, click through for some evidence (and there is of course loads more in BME/extreme and BME/HARD).

A couple more explicit shots continue after the break, and there are lots more in the “Slave Sweetie” bonus gallery in BME/HARD.
