Ampallang

The Ampallang is a horizontal piercing that runs through the glans of the penis, usually through the urethra (transurethral) or just above it (non-urethral). This intimate piercing is often chosen because of the intense sensation it provides for both the wearer and their partner, and can play a role in BDSM contexts in pain play, genital play, or as a permanent mark of ownership.
