'''The Genitorturers''' consists of four memebers; Bizz, Joey, Evil D. and Gen on vocals. The Genitorturers formed in the 1990's in Orlando, Florida, while Gen was studying a Pre-Med course.  The Genitorturers combined punk, metal and electronic beats with fetish, body [[Piercing|piercing]], [[Branding|branding]] and [[Cutting|cutting]], transforming their live show into something much more than just a "rock concert."
'''Gentian violet''' is a mildly antiseptic dye derived from pararosaniline that has positive properties as a bactericide and fungicide. Mixed with water, it can be used (with the aid of a toothpick) to mark piercings (less expensive than using a single-use [[Surgical Marker|surgical marker]], which often contain gentian violet themselves), although in rare cases it can "tattoo" the tissue if it is pulled into the fresh piercing or applied on ulcerative or flayed (and scarred) skin.


A typical live performance by The Genitorturers would be made up of the band playing with Gen, sometimes on vocals and sometimes leading a piercing show, acting as a puppeteer between two sets of pierced nipples or branding a member of the audience. In the background, cages, children's toys, and fetish performance paraphenalia adorn the stage.
Gentian violet can be used in a solution to treat yeast infections and [[Thrush|thrush]].


As the artist most responsible for The Genitorturers, Gen has said she started the band to help herself relax from her then-gruelling course in Pre-med and also to combine her two loves, music and sexuality.
The USDA notes that Gentian Violet is only for topical use, and should not be swallowed.

Gentian Violet

Gentian violet is a mildly antiseptic dye derived from pararosaniline that has positive properties as a bactericide and fungicide. Mixed with water, it can be used (with the aid of a toothpick) to mark piercings (less expensive than using a single-use surgical marker, which often contain gentian violet themselves), although in rare cases it can "tattoo" the tissue if it is pulled into the fresh piercing or applied on ulcerative or flayed (and scarred) skin.

Gentian violet can be used in a solution to treat yeast infections and thrush.

The USDA notes that Gentian Violet is only for topical use, and should not be swallowed.

Occlusive bandaging should not be used after applying Gentian Violet over the skin, or it may cause localized irritation.
