A very general term for the BDSM practice of physically reverencing a part of the body. Typical are foot worship and arse worship.
Usually accompanied by prostration, re-inforcing a sense of inferiority, a "sub" will generally lick, kiss and suck the body part, though not allowed to touch it in a more conventional way. The aspect of erotic humiliation is perhaps appreciated more fully by bearing in mind the commonplace "Kiss my arse."
Though encouragement may be provided, verbally or by spanking, body worship is typically received more or less passively, the worshipped party aloof. Face sitting and smothering are both forms of body worship which differ chiefly because of their aggressive approach.See also
