How safe are ball weights and parachutes? Do they do any kind of internal damge to the balls or that area?

Any toy that is used carelessly has the potential to do harm, but if you start slow and build up, you should be fine. I have seen someone with a large weight attached to a parachute kicking it about like a football with no apparent harm, and I have seen someone with a brick hanging off his balls, ditto. There is more risk with things like cock rings and cords that constrict the blood supply. The risk there is cell death leading to gangrene/amputation. But you'd have to be doing something pretty extreme for that to happen.

I would stick to professionally made equipment - I'm not recommending the house brick! Make sure it fits comfortably, and only work with partners you trust not to do anything too harsh. A kick in the balls WILL do damage, no doubt about it. Start slow, build up, and have fun!

BTW, I learnt most of what I know about CBT from gay pro Doms. Gay men really know about men's bits! We had the good fortune to have a couple of gay pro Doms lead a workshop on CBT for the benefit of the female Dommes who wanted to learn. What an eye opener! If you want to ask any more questions, don't be afraid to pop into a gay thread and ask there. You'll get some really good answers.

Yes I agree, and a wet brick is a lot heavier... evil grin ...

As the others seem to have covered the topic quite well, I'll only add that you really get what you pay for when it comes to parachutes, stretchers, weight attachments and such. In fact, I'd be inclined to avoid a parachute entirely and go for one of the other devices that wraps more securely around the scrotum. Most parachutes will quickly crumble and distort once hardly any kind of serious weight has been added to them (meaning more than a couple of pounds). You'd be very surprised at how much weight your balls & scrotum can actually handle, while the device the weights are attached to might not be capable of handling it at all! Oh, and don't waste your money buying overly expensive weights from a BDSM store. Instead, go and buy them from a tackle shop, or as you build your tolerance up, get some smaller ones used for dumbbells from an exercise store!
