Figging - Ginger - Male perspective

I found that keeping ginger too long can rob it of potency. We tried plastic bags, but it still lost its heat. I love fresh ginger hands & the way they smell as you peel a finger. My wife enjoys both being figged & having a slice applied to her clit. I always test a slice on myself (frenum is a good place) before applying it to her. If it makes your skin hot, the delicate tissues are going to be in for a very hot time.

Just like peppers, not all ginger figs carry the same amount of heat. We have gone from nice & tingly to holy shit that's hot. No matter what, it peaks in less than 20 minutes. Enjoy!

I tried figging and find it quite a treat. The root gives a nice warmth which has some staying power. I like the idea of a little powder on anything that goes in the bottom. Very clever.

Will probably make a lot here 'cringe' at the idea, but have heard that Dominant females will sometimes insert a slice of ginger up a man's urethral for 'figging' a penis.

Had also heard that a woman taking a figging up their vagina is just as intense, (if not more so), than up their ass.

Suppose one can double the 'pleasure', by doing both at the same time, (and in both males or females)???

For sure, I think most would consider this to be in the realm of BDSM activities, but hey, as they say, 'if it feels good, do it'!

Many people receive stimulation in many different ways. It's all in ones mind if something is considered BDSM related.

In some circles, enemas are considered a BDSM activity... However from reading posts here from those who just enjoy the experience, I'm sure they would not be among those that consider this to be a BDSM related activity.

We tried it several times and it did very little. It did not keep on from clinching nor make one want to stick out the buttocks as described in many erotic novels. Rub it with just the freshly cut surface of hot pepper and wow, ass out no clinching.

Hi ...we are very keen to try figging but are unsure where to start safely. would really be interested in advice from someone who has good experience and will give sound advice to beginners .we are not new to anal play . We both can handle the thought of the heat sensation etc we just also want it to be a safe first experience.Wisdom welcome please ?

Not difficult at all. You can push a small piece of ginger all the way in, and it will come out naturally later -- just be sure to shave it smooth all around. If you like it and want to try larger pieces later, a "collar" carved around one end will keep it from going all the way in.

I have never had any difficulty. It is what I am doing in my avatar pic. Is there anything you are particularly concerned about? ???

Yeah, it's not crazy. The severity just depends on the bottom. I've tried it before, and yeah, it hurts... a good kind of hurt. But it's nothing *too* terrible. Just a fun way to add some spice to an otherwise ordinary session. Try it sometime! It's fun.

You just have to make sure the piece of ginger is the correct size & shape for your lover's ass. Figging combined with spanking is magical.

Okay, I went to the produce section and bought some Ginger root. I picked a piece that was the size of my middle finger and it is curved. Peeled it and placed it in before driving off. I did not know if I would like it or not but the intensity of the burning sensation kept rising. I left it half in and half out of my anus and found this to give the best results. I already have a balloon inside my rectum connected to airline tubing and on the end a blood pressure cuff inflator. (I was shopping the whole time while inflating and deflating the balloon). It is kind of like having an enema without the mess in public. I usually pump until I start to waddle a bit, and then deflated.... Oh yes back to the Ginger root, I was getting side tracked. If the ginger root gets all the way inside of my rectum the burning sensation goes away. It is while in transit inside the anus that the burn is felt. This is my first time figging.... Now on to the balloon. I went to walk the dog and gave my balloon about thirty pumps and it feel ih so good, then deflate and start again. You double balloon users know how many pumps that actually is. It is beyond the capacity of the large 750 cc version. Oh and I digress... You should try figging at least once. Because it is not oil based as soon as it leaves your anus the burning ceases... I used to do this with Mentholatum rub, (why do they call it analgesic anyway?) It just make me more anal centric...😃

There are a few sites which show how to carve one. I used a piece around 3 inches long. Imade the inside part around 3/4 inch diam, and cut a notch in it (e.g 1/2" diam.) You should leave a wider bit below the notch so it doesn't go right in.

I liked it - it was not agony, but uncomfortable. Some say that keeping it for a few days increases the strength.

Part of this is going to the shops and spending a while choosing a good bit!

The intensity can also be reduced if any lubricants are used or have been used, during other anal play, prior to inserting the ginger.

For full intensity, only lubricate the ginger with water and do the figging before placing any other lubricated objects in the anus.

Depends on how you are defining suppository... Traditional figging is done with peeled ginger root and inserted part way into the arse. Now if you are looking for something like medical suppositories, they are not commercially available. However, if you send me a message if really interested in medicinal type as I mix and cast them for fun.

From the link I posted earlier:

Turbo Charge Your Ginger for More Potent Play

Now for a little technique that will "turbo charge" your ginger: Using your ginger soon after you buy it will assure potency. Strong ginger, unprotected, for long periods of time will rob it of its zip. However, if you have any ginger fingers left after playtime, place it in a sealed, plastic bag and place it in the veggie bin in the refrigerator. Now, like the aging of fine wine, forget about it for a while.

After a few days, check the ginger. If things are going well, the inside of the bag should have moisture on it. If a little mold has formed on the ginger, it's time for play. If not, put it back in the bin for another day or two and check on it daily until mold forms. The mold is harmless and does not penetrate the tough, fibrous skin of the root.

Peel and prepare the ginger as before and play as usual. But look out! The juice of the ginger has increased dramatically in potency. If you think you had a good time when the ginger was new, wait till you play now. Any unused ginger should be discarded at this time.

The skin test is a good idea as some people have an allergic reaction to bananas when used anally.

Gee! I missed my calling. I should have been an anal allergist!

I do like the squirming that starts a few seconds after I push the ginger in; I wish it would not be so obvious because of the aroma, as it would work even better as a surprise I believe.

Reading around, it seems that some doms/dommes view buttock clenching during spanking as a form of resistance, and there are various possibilities (figging, spreader bar...) to try to stop this.

It seems to me that the sub can still contract their muscles with a spreader bar, and that the issue is really psychological. Is is possible to condition a sub so that their muscles remain totally relaxed during a spanking, totally open and welcoming?

During BDSM i was blindfolded and figged by my female play nurse. Apparently to get the FULL effect, she peeled it and then dipped it in water and did not use any lube.

Figging while having sex is really great. As a tip, it is really important to use your ginger fresh.

I've been figged after being lubed, for other anal play, with Dr. Bronner's Peppermint soap. There was enough soap remaining that it felt like I had a hot poker up my ass. INTENSE!

Have also tried multiple times with varying results. There's a lot of difference in the freshness of ginger. And maybe some ginger is stronger than others.

It's totally hot. I love to use it on my subbie, she hates it but that turns me on even more. I love have it inside myself the burining sensation is really arousing!

I have been figged only once, and it came as a complete and very painful surprise. I had been restrained by my disciplinarian to eye bolts screwed into the wall; spread-eagled facing the wall and ball-gagged to avoid disturbing her neighbors. She already had delivered a severe strapping with a harness-leather applicance, and had left me alone in the room to "think about my sins" or whatever.

After about 20 minutes she came back into the room and began carving a hunk of ginger root with a steak knife. There was no confusion as to what she was going to do with this, as the hourglass shape she was carving left little room for doubt.

She simply inserted in in me and left the room again. After about 60 seconds the heat became noticeable. After another 3 minutes the strapping I had received paled in comparison to what I was feeling inside. I yelled and whimpered as best I could with the gag in my mouth, but it was another 15 minutes before my disciplinarian came back and removed the plug.

This almost ended our relationship; I've never felt anything quite so intense.

It depends totally on the persons tolerance. Ginger is a very 'contolled burn' meaning it stops once it is removed unlike some agents. Ginger in the vagina/penal opening is very intense, many simply cannot handle it there versus the anus. Another tip when using ginger or ginger paste is to make sure you have had a cleansing enema making the area clean and 'alive' making the host area much more intense.

It's mostly pleasure for me. I haven't played with figging in awhile, but I bought some ginger the other day and am looking forward to getting a chance to have it used on me. I love the light burning that it creates and the intense horniness that comes after the burning builds up in my ass is amazing... I am surprised that figging isn't more common/popular in the as the pain level is only about a 6 on the 1-10 scale and the payoff euphoria and turn on is well worth it...

Have played with ginger many times. Always a new a subtle variant to the sensations.

One caution though, make sure you or the person you are using it with is not allergic to ginger before hand.

A peeled finger of ginger root is an intense stimulant. The tingling/burning is very erotic and I enjoy the sensations. I would enjoy inserting one into a ladies rectum.

Sure, I hve had some figging experiences. First you can smell the ginger, so after you have experienced it, and then you smell that smell again, you know what;s coming next... It is erotic and does burn a little bit, but it is kinky. Makes you clinch your butt cheeks together to deal with the stinnging (not pinful just stings) and when you do, you are really just driving the ginger forgther into your skin and increasing the feeling. Once rfemoved your hole is nice and warm and ready for the next adventure.

I use a small piece of fresh peeled ginger and push it as far up the rectum as i can. It burns going in, and always has a major effect! A couple of cool water enemas finishes the play.

Fresh ginger is much more active than powdered.

After the clean out, another piece goes in and we fuck. The warm sensation of the ass and the ginger always make for memorable results. Works for boys and girls!

I used a peeled ginger root last night. I did a normal enema to clean out, then a 1 X 2 inch piece of ginger. The main effect is on the anus - once it gets inside i don't feel it. Then i did another 2 liter warm water enema. 20 minutes later it did its work and caused major cramps and very effective evacuation.

The feeling outside is hot, but very pleasant. The feeling stays for a long time. Highly recommended for a new sensation.

Highly recommended, but the intensity does vary greatly depending on the freshness of the ginger.
