| | :[[Doug Malloy|Doug Malloy]] says frenum and lorum piercings were used in Europe to attach [[Franey Cages (page does not exist)|Franey Cages]] as chastity devices. Some evidence supports piercings being used to attach [[Chastity cages (page does not exist)|chastity cages]] and locks but this specific placement has not been substantiated. |
| | |
| | Early Gauntlet catalogs sometimes referred to this [[Piercing|piercing]] as a "front centered [[Hafada|hafada]]". |
