Torture

Torture is defined as the intentional infliction of brutal physical or mental pain. However in the language of BDSM there are diverse types of tortures.

One kind is the term Chinese tickle torture. This is a term most often found in western society, usually in the United States and refers to the hypothetical form of torture that involves tying up a victim and tickling them, usually on the feet, till the point of helpless laughter becomes excruciating pain. And since it is pleasurable for both the tickler and tickled, it is not really torture.

Another kind is Cock and ball torture (CBT) which is a sexual activity that involves torture of the male genitals. This category includes painful activities, like wax play and genital spanking, as well as the use of cock harnesses, testicle cuffs, parachutes and prolonged stimulation.

Another type, anal torture is any torture applied to the anus, using such things as a Pear or a hot poker. It is believed this method was used in the murder of the allegedly homosexual English king Edward II. So, care should be taken. It also refers to generally milder BDSM practice of imposing pain on the anus. This can be through the insertion of objects that cause a burning sensation and though figging or subjecting the anus to hot or cold temperatures. However, since the body tissues involved are very delicate, anal torture is considered to be quite risky. So take care that something that starts out as fun doesn’t deteriorate into something dangerous or painful for your partner.
