CBT
In BDSM, CBT (cock and ball torture) is consensual erotic play involving pain or pressure applied to the penis and testicles.
CBT stands for cock and ball torture, a form of consensual BDSM play focused on the penis and testicles. It can involve squeezing, binding, light impact, temperature, or specialized devices to create sensation. Like all BDSM, it depends on informed consent between adults, negotiated limits, safe words, and attention to safety, since the genitals are sensitive tissue. Partners typically research techniques and stop the moment anyone signals a limit. The abbreviation should not be confused with cognitive behavioral therapy, which shares the same initials in mental health settings. Context makes the meaning clear.
