BME: Body Modification Ezine

A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

  • Yes, it’s a tongue corset

    I know, I know, you’re probably looking at this saying “this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen”, but let me give it a little context. Piercer Daniel (of Los 13 Tattoo in Sao Paulo) did this on his friend Fernanda Tsukada at the 2º Encontro Internacional de Tatuadores e Body Piercings do Brasil in July, hoping to win first place in the exotic piercing category… a desire which he achieved, taking home the gold medal or whatever it is they gave as recognition — the most important part being the motivation to continue creating unusual and gorgeous body play. Now, for those that think this is silly, I want to point out one very, very important thing: 99% of the corsets that are done are not done using jewelry that is suitable for long term wear. They are temporary projects. So why is it any worse to do it on a tongue, where at least there won’t be any long term scars left by the game, plus you can bet you’re giving the wearer and the public something they’ve rarely seen before? So what do you think… Is this over the line? Did we cross the line a long time ago? Or are you like me, and you deny the existence of the line entirely?

    The watermark is obscuring the date, but I think it’s safe to assume that IAM:Oiter‘s tattoo was done by none other than Freak-Mike.  Not only does it bear his name, but it also lines up perfectly with his style, right down to the fully blackened navel.

    We’re all familiar with Nail‘s abstract tattoos, as they’ve been featured here several times before.  This time Nail is the one getting the tattoo, based on a design he came up with, and tattooed by his girlfriend Zombie Cat, who works with him at Nail’s Tattoo in Hungary.

    The gang down at First Blood in Sydney are known for putting out some pretty cool modifications, but did you know that they also have a suspension team?  Here’s Cupcakes in an 8pt modified superman, in which her top half is angled downward into a diving pose.

    It’s labour day today, which means school should be starting for most of the kiddies out there.  So in honour of the start of the school year, here’s your first pop-quiz.  Can you tell me exactly what is happening in this photo?  (Bonus points if you use the correct technical terminology)

    Read ahead to see how you did.

    So fun fact about this photo.  Jen has been moderating the image queues for many years here at BME and this is the first one that almost made her faint.

    So according to IAM: Ilovepain26, this is a transurethral cock perforation.  I will also accept “sounding with a big ass needle” as a correct answer.  And just for fun, here’s another photo.
