Meaning


What does Figging mean?

Figging is the practice of peeling and carving a piece of ginger root into a slim butt-plug shape, then inserting it into someone’s anus.

The combination of the strong ginger and the sensitive rectum creates an intense, burning sensation, going from uncomfortable to extreme in just a few minutes.

The sensation can stay as long as half an hour before decreasing in intensity.

If the person tightens the anal muscles, the sensation becomes stronger.

This practice is performed sexually in kink play such as BDSM, role play, or as punishment.
