Re: Figging is inserting raw peeled ginger into body orifices for sadomasochistic sexual gratificati

But what does that have to do with figs? Either shove a fig up your butt or call it "gingering."

As below, a "fig" of ginger is a fairly archaic term for a knob of ginger.

Well, according to google it's because the root of "figging" comes from a "variant of obsolete feague ‘liven up’ (earlier ‘whip’); perhaps related to German fegen ‘sweep, thrash’." (That's from the 17th century) By early 19th century, it had come to mean "‘cause (a horse) to be lively and carry its tail well (by applying ginger to its anus)’; hence ‘smarten up.’"

So, that's why.

Honestly, I only know about it because of the book Night Watch, though it was oxen in that book.

This was often done to show horses where a high tail carriage was desirable. It's illegal in show rings but unfortunately is still sometimes done (in Arabian halter classes, for example).

"horseplay" takes on a whole new meaning now

Oh! I though it was because the ginger bit was shaped to look a bit like a fresh fig: ~ a pointy onion.

Not really; in figging, the ginger is cut to look like a butt plug (thank you wikipedia), while figs are more pear shaped, and would be more like fisting? Maybe?

Fresh figs aren't that big.

Yeah, but they're bigger and differently shaped than butt plugs.
Well, the ones that my dad used to grow were.
Especially when compared to how ginger is carved for figging:
