Dancing Doll's Excellent Figging Adventure: The Full Report

Ok, so after Her Royal Spriteness put this idea into my head with this thread (thanks Sprite!), I had an interesting and very entertaining conversation about it last night (which is almost another story on its own.. LOL). Anyway curiosity made me decide to indulge my adventurous 'I'll try anything once' spirit and see what figging is all about.

After a trip to the grocery store earlier where I basically felt like a pervert sizing up the various sizes of ginger while other ginger-shoppers assessed them for culinary purposes, I made my purchase... which included some nice butt-plug shaped pieces.

Because I anticipated some kind of a burning sensations, I thought it might be a good idea to put my glass dildo into the freezer for a while while I prepared the ginger. I thought that alternating the sensations of the scalding pain (LOL, let's call it like it is!) and the ice-cold glass might make for a combined erotically stimulating experience.

During my playtime, I experienced an interesting progression of thoughts on figging.

After warming up in terms of solo-play arousal, I eventually took a deep breath and slid the carved 'ginger finger' into my ass. I felt it almost right away and the sensations build very quickly and intensely. Let's see... how to describe it... at first, it's kind of like sticking a flaming fireplace poker into your ass. Except it's more of a stinging than a full fledged burning. I assume people that eat jalapeno peppers will be able to relate to the concept of stinging-burn. I couldn't handle it for more than a minute or two at a time, so I alternated with the frozen glass dildo (which felt amazing as a contrasting sensation). I went back and forth with them while also using a vibrator. Then I became really sadistic and cut a slice of ginger and rubbed it on my clit (just out of curiosity). I didn't feel anything right away, so impatiently, I pinched the slice of ginger and squirted a bit of juice onto my clit... and ok... damn! I could feel it then! Yowwww....

Clearly this experience would be better with a figging partner (and a warm tongue), but if you aren't a BDSM kind of person, I think it's best to try this on your own at first and see if you even like how it feels.

While at first, I totally didn't get it and thought it was like some form of sexual torture (they should consider using this in Guantanamo, for sure), when the initial stinging-burning sensation starts to subside you do feel exceptionally horny and I had some rather intense orgasms. If I liken figging to a drug, I would say that my favourite part is after you hit the peak and you're coasting down from the high. It's hard to explain unless you try it yourself. Even after the ginger has been removed, the sensations continue for a good 20-30 minutes afterwards.

Would I do it again... uhmm... yeah.

I think it would be a lot of fun to play with sensations with a partner, and the frozen glass dildo creates a really gorgeous sensation. But you definitely want to make sure you're able to adjust the intensity to your own choosing, unless you're someone who's into restraint/pain/pleasure. Personally I wouldn't want to be restrained or have someone else controlling the figging in an aggressive BDSM way (I'm not into that scene). But as a twist on oral-anal pleasure and foreplay, and even solo-masturbation I'd say it's definitely worth a try! At least once... maybe twice... maybe more... ?

Thanks Sprite! Keep those ideas coming...
