Figging For Slavegirls
Here’s an article about ginger root figging used to punish and discipline a slave girl. Slave “yielding” has written Ginger Root: The Burn Without the Fire full of information like this:
For this slave squirming is inevitable unless it has been bound, and within minutes, this slave is usually begging for mercy and promising good future behavior. Fortunately, Master Stern does not give in to these initial pleas. When this slave finds out it will be punished or disciplined with the root, it expects thirty to forty-five minutes of discomfort.
The sensation of being “burned” by the ginger root doesn’t go away immediately upon its removal. While the effects are dependent upon how fresh the root is, the heat and burning continues at a lower level for several hours after the root is removed. It is, however, a level that cannot be ignored or put out of mind, even for a few seconds. “Sitting down gingerly” has taken on a whole new meaning for this slave. The further humiliation of knowing the ginger is protruding and visible to Master Stern compounds the humiliating intensity of the experience.
One of the benefits of using ginger root as punishment has been that it doesn’t cut into Master Stern’s time. He can go about His business without having to keep continual watch over His slave, or He can expect the same amount of service from without diminishing the punishment’s effects. Dinner can still be served, dishes can still be washed, and errands can still be run.
