Ballbusting
Definition
Ballbusting is a form of BDSM play in which a sub’s testicles are deliberately struck, kicked, hit, or pinched. It is a form of cock and ball torture (CBT) and is often experienced as a mixture of physical pain, humiliation, and sexual arousal.

Explanation of Ballbusting
Ballbusting is not for the faint-hearted. It is a form of genital play in which the sub’s testicles are deliberately struck—with a knee, fist, foot, hand, or even objects such as paddles or whips. Sometimes hard, sometimes subtly painful. But always with a clear purpose: power, surrender, humiliation, or pain.
Although it may appear crude or even harmful from the outside, ballbusting within a safe, consensual BDSM setting is actually a carefully coordinated interplay. For some subs, it is the ultimate kink: the feeling that their masculinity is literally under the control of a Mistress. The fear, the anticipation, the mental game beforehand—it is at least as intense as the physical stimulus itself.
From playfulness to intense punishment
Ballbusting can be playful—think of gentle taps as a warning or teasing—but it can also be part of a sadistic ritual, punishment, humiliation, or an expression of dominance. In Femdom, it is often used to confirm the hierarchy: “Your balls are mine.” It can be accompanied by dirty talk, spitting, laughing, or even complete denial of the male ego.
Yet there are also subs who seek it out precisely because of its boundary-pushing effect. The intense sensations, the adrenaline rush, the feeling of emptiness or surrender after a session – ballbusting is not just painful, but for some it is healing, cathartic or even spiritual.
It is important to emphasize that ballbusting has risks. The testicles are sensitive and vulnerable. One wrong kick or blow can lead to permanent injury. That is why really good ballbusting is always about control, experience, and mutual trust.
Safety & points of attention
Agree on clear boundaries
What is okay? What is not? Are kicks allowed? How hard? With shoes or bare feet? A good conversation beforehand prevents misunderstandings and injury.
Build up the session
Don’t start with a full knee to the scrotum. Start the game with gentle touches, squeezing, light taps, or dominance play. Observe your sub’s reaction.
Be careful with kicks
Never kick with full force, especially not with the tip of a shoe. Aim consciously, preferably at the bottom or side of the scrotum, and always maintain visual contact.
Watch for medical signs
Bruising, swelling, or pain radiating to the abdomen or back? Stop immediately. Is there nausea, fever, or prolonged pain? Always have it checked by a doctor.
