Crucifixion And You: How Did The Idea Start?

Go to CruxDreams.com
My story has many of the same elements that others have mentioned. My parents had a bible that contained some very beautiful and realistic pics of the crucifixion. I think I was first fascinated by the idea when I was around 9 or 10 years old. I remember laying on my bed in nothing but my panties (pretending they were a loincloth) with my arms outstretched, fantasizing I was on the cross. Sometimes nailed, sometimes just roped. I hadn't yet developed any sexual feelings, so I can't begin to explain what it was that drew me. But drawn I was, for a short time anyway.

The fantasy remained dormant for many years. I eventually discovered the Story of O, etc., and then a trashy little Victorian-style novel about three women who get stripped naked and flogged in public - this changed me forever! Fantasies of being naked and humiliated in a pubic punishment just drove me wild. Once I got a home internet connection (1999), I started exploring the dark and sexy corners of the net, and it was only a matter of time before I discovered crux art and stories. As someone else above said, crux was basically an extension of BDSM fantasies that I already had.
 
I wrote this on an earlier thread. It is interesting reading the admissions here how this interest started in so many at a pre-puberty age, it certainly did with me. Also how a little information started the interest but with more knowledge of details about the horrible procedure the interest developed into fascination. It certainly is a powerful subject that seems quite different from any other form of execution. Role playing while young developing into more complicated self cruxing when older seems to be something several others have done.


Since I was about seven years old I have been moved by the idea of crucifixion, I'm sure it stems from watching a Jesus movie, nothing to do with religion; however we did have an old Victorian bible with engraved type illustrations, the one of Golgotha I found spellbinding.

One's body is a private & personal possession, the very thought of it being so publicly exposed to view & the terrible tortures involved had a huge impression on my young mind, though I probably never fully understood them at that age. I posed as if on a cross on the ladder of my bunk bed with only my white underpants on, of course it wasn't till many years later in my early teens that I discovered somehow that victims were totally naked - that added knowledge knocked me sideways! At the age of fourteen to imagine oneself raised up on a cross naked with a crowd of lovely girls watching was the most erotic thing I could imagine. I imagined vividly the delicious shame of how that situation would have on my my poor young penis stiffly straining to bridge the void between me & them.

So it has always been a personal fantasy, good to know it is not at all a rare one judging by how many folk of both sexes who look in here. In fact I think the fascination with crucifixion is even more widespread than all here; who in a church cannot be moved (& I don't mean in a religious, pious, or spiritual way) by looking at an almost naked man stretched wide on a cross, usually a perfectly idealised physical body with the scrap of cloth maintaining the modesty tantalisingly slipping down! It is an image almost purposely created for erotic thoughts despite the Church wanting to banish such things, a test of out resolve? Anyway it's small wonder only a few people are willing to voice an erotic reaction to a crucifix.

Of course eroticism aside it was a horrible thing, one of terrible wounding, lots of blood, bodily functions, filth & stench. But even considering this it is still fascinating. I am one of the minority here who do not like that much the misogyny of seeing images of women on crosses, being a regular heterosexual guy I prefer my women next to me in a bed! I don't want to see women tortured, I know I am not completely alone here. There does seem to be three camps here, those men who want to see nude females in the heady pose of crucifixion (it does show off breasts so well!), others who want to see the same sex as themselves similarly presented, & those of either sex who fantasise about suffering crucifixion themselves. I am of the latter group.

So I have done self cruxing for decades when the opportunity of being completely alone permits. When I got a digital camera many years ago I could take photos, & with Photoshop I could make images of a crucifixion scenes along the lines of how I envisage the reality might have been. Many of these I have shared here. The mini movies are just an extension of that. I did hope I could share them with others interested, but I don't want to do that because of the risk of them being copied & posted in places beyond my control. It's a pity that one cannot put up a video clip somewhere where it was only possible to view & not download, I am not aware of the possibility.

I think this is right and captures a lot (I see myself then in the latter group too).
 
I thought about crucifixion as a schoolboy because every Lent the nuns would go into great detail about the crucifixion of Jesus. I wondered what that felt like. As I got older, I fantasized about being crucified. Now my dream is to be scourged all over my naked body in front of everyone, then to be tied (not nailed) to a cross and left there for as long as I can take it. I would also want to be forced down on a cornu or sedile to increase my pain.
 
Now we have a second thread on this topic
http://www.cruxforums.com/xf/threads/what-inspired-you-to-like-crucifixion.4915/

I have always been fascinated by the body suspended, fixed and helpless. I don't think it is a religious thing, although I have a religious background. Maybe that just exposed me to the idea at an earlier age.
I used to imagine crucified people in the trees alongside the road. To imagine myself, suspended and exposed. Why? There is a special kind of vulnerability about the crucified man or woman, helpless before us. The cross stretches and exposes the body, accentuates the natural shapes, improves the lines. It introduces a degree of struggle, of effort, that can be very satisfying and again produces beautiful shapes.
The cross tests the individual mentally as well as physically. It becomes a contest, an endurance, to find the strength of will and of muscle to carry on, to last the distance. It asks questions of you that may not have been asked before. It brings body and mind into conflict, each looking for mastery over the other.
How did it start? I think the elements of it have always been in me.

Yes, I had the same experience with the nun stories. During Lent it was about he crucifixion but during the year stories of the saints sometimes provided intense images.

Interesting as 9 year olds we get stirrings that re emerge later in life.

This is true. I was also moved by the story of St. Tarcisius, a boy who was beaten to death trying to conceal Communion hosts from other boys.Tarcisius dying in soldier's arms.jpg

Catholicism, an indispensable past.

So as dear Messaline wrote, I crucify me for myself but I imagine the watchers around me, see my white naked flesh, trembling and shocking, my genitals shaking and my poor knees benching. Weeks after I hold pain there but I keep silence, my choice to have done.
 
Growing up in a Catholic school, I was fascinated by it, enough to imitate it, fully clothed. As an adult, I was looking for BDSM images, and came across the Crucified Women site. I liked it enough to keep following it, that led me here.
 
For me was it a wonder to read that also women perform autocrucifixion. Splendid details from Roxy.
And also a discovery that men did the same as I did since my 15th. It was for me in fact a certain liberation!

We, men, women, homo's, lesbians and shortly hermaphrodites, had the same dream, perhaps the Jung's collective unconsciousness.
 
Some time ago I was checking some fetishes websites and found a link on a comment to here. At first I felt a little strange, but now I am liking what I see. I only hope to learn more
