BlackRose says: It is difficult to merely speak about Genitorture, it is lots easier to show you what I am doing, but tonight we'll have to do with words alone. BlackRose asks: Any immediate questions before we begin? Sirena asks: ? MistressKim asks: Sirena? Sirena asks: isn't it safer to be properly trained in the techniques and wiser? Sirena asks: i know your hints are helpful...but are there ppl who actually train dommes/dom's to do this? BlackRose says: yes, it is always best to be trained, but it is sometimes easier to train with hands-on experience Sirena nods... BlackRose says: Sirena, it is very important to be trained RL. I often work with domm/mes to help them learn techniques MistressKim exclaims: Ok, Rose, as usual, has prepared presentation that I'll cut and paste. We'll pause for questions periodically. Away we go! Genitorture is the act of focusing your play on the Genitals for pain/pleasure. Those who play with females often use the terms Cunt Torture or Cunt Play and those who play with males often refer to CBT - Cock and Ball Torture. While they all sound ominous, these scene can be done with novices as well as those who like to play on the far edge as long as you know your partners level and your own skills. To properly prepare for genital play, one must first be aware of the safety issues and precautions in general and specific to these activities. Safe sex should be your watchword with whomever and wherever you play. A healthy supply of gloves, dental dams and condoms should be the first things you pack for a genitorture scene. While you may play only with your body-fluids- monogamous partner, be aware that you are leaving her/his fluids on the equipment you use. Be prepared to clean up after your scene. If the host does not provide cleaning supplies, keep a bottle of alcohol or some cleaning antiseptic in your bag. Bring a tarp, sheet or large towel to place under you bottoms bottom. Most large parties have safe sex trash receptacles for used gloves and condoms. If one is not provided, be sure to take care in depositing such articles. I keep a plastic grocery type bag that I use for disposal of such things. Be sure to tie it tightly and either deposit it in the garbage can yourself, or ask your host what s/he prefers you do with the bag. Bodily fluids are not just ejaculate and blood. Don't forget sweat, pus, saliva piss and shit. Sticking an uncovered hand inside a bodily orifice is dangerous to both players. We seldom notice the tiny nicks and scratches on our skin that are so often present. Cover all insertables with condoms or make them one- person-only toys. If you allow others to play with your bottom protect him or her. Be sure to insist that invitees use gloves, condoms and lube. Blood has some special considerations of its own in these activities. The insides of the vagina and anus are made of very delicate tissue. Long and/or rough fingernails can cause scratches and cuts that not only can be uncomfortable, but can also make both parties susceptible to infection. Be sure to file you nails well before inserting you hand in anyone even if you are wearing a glove. Nails can tear gloves. Women with long nails look sexy, but can be dangerous in unintended ways. Put cotton balls in the fingertips of your gloves before putting them on to protect yourself and your partner. If you play with women, there is another issue that becomes important menstruation. Should you or shouldnt you? You certainly may do so from a safety perspective, but consider your partner. Some women cannot bear any type of pressure in the vaginal area or to the nipples when they have their periods. Be sensitive to their conditions if you want to play with them again. Some players find that using menstruating women just as they would at other times of the month strengthens and reasserts ownership issues and rights. If the sub is contracted to you, and your contract does not prohibit such play, you can "take" your pleasure with the sub anytime. Many women find it incredible humiliating. Imagine being strapped to a table at a party and having you Dom pull the tampex from your cunt in front of everyone there. Amanda asks: ? BlackRose asks: Amanda?
