Lots of fetishes can kill you. I suppose that’s what adds to the excitement. Erotic electrostimulation, e-stim or electrosex, can really fry you to death in different ways. Basically, it’s when people electrocute themselves, or someone else, for the purposes of pleasure.
There are lots of different ways that this can be done. Obviously, people have been doing it since electricity began to be harnessed back in the 1700s. Isn’t that always the way, though? As soon as somebody invents a new thing, somebody else tries to figure out how to use it to get off.
I’m sure that ten minutes after the first person discovered how to make fire, somebody else in the cave was wondering what would happen if they shoved a burning stick up their ass.
Anyhow, as you can probably imagine, an electrical current that isn’t dispersed over a wide enough area of skin can cause a severe burn. Too much electrical current can fry your body, cause a cardiac arrest (especially with electrodes attached to the chest) or just make you suffer a slow agonizing death while you slowly roast alive from the inside. Hot—not!
One of the (ahem) current fads for electric-sex sensory play is to use an an electro muscle stimulator (EMS). These were originally intended to help massage injured or sore muscles, but people quickly discovered that they could provide sexual fun when attached to the genitals. Thus, units expressly dedicated to providing sexual shocks were created. Some people swear by them.
Another crazy fetish that started in the 1970s was using bare speaker wires, which provide a jolt when music is played. In the beginning this was a fairly DIY type of affair with people just putting on their favorite James Last and Judy Collins records and then having spine tingling orgasm while the beat went on, la di da di da.
Now, though, the speaker wire thing is so sophisticated that there are actually whole websites filled with mp3s you can download, specifically made to provide fun electric shocks while you listen.
US patent 3,941,139 is for a “method of artificially inducing urination, defecation, or sexual excitation” through electrical currents applied directly to the spine. Bizarre.
Some people use electrodes attached directly to the body to provide the shocks they need. This can be really dangerous, especially when the electrodes are applied directly to the chest. People with heart problems and pacemakers should avoid this kind of thing at all costs. Nevertheless, people do it.
In closing, I don’t get this fetish at all. But if you read this and got excited by what I described, then I wish you the best. Mail me your address, and I’ll send flowers to your funeral;)
