The Spanish horse is a wedge- or saddle-shaped torture and humiliation device on which a person is seated with their legs spread apart. Historically, such constructions were used in various contexts for physical abuse. The feet often do not touch the ground, placing substantial pressure on the pelvis, thighs, and intimate area.

The Spanish horse is not a BDSM practice to be imitated lightly, but a historical torture device. Because of the significant risk of injury, possible tissue damage, and severe pain, any real-world use is not responsible. The term is used today mainly in historical, literary, or staged contexts; it should not be copied in practice.
