Let Your Hands Take the Night Off

Lets talk about some alternatives to the hands on method...literally. I highly promote that if you're on the fence of going beyond the hands, do your dick the favor and give it the novelty it deserves. To start off simple you can get a stroker, a simple textured one that stretches over your dick for some fun texture. Then you have pocket pussys that simulate a pussy and you manually stroke up and down. Maybe you treat yourself to the feeling of fucking someone with a sex doll. All these have one common inconvenience though, they all require **you** to do the work. Non or these options just let you take it in and react to the receiving of indulgence. Before getting this toy I've always viewed masturbation as something you did to yourself not for yourself. So let's get into this hands free stroker! Out of the box the machine feels fairly heavy and has a strong stiff built, with premium feeling buttons. One button is for powering on, one for vibration and one for thrusting. The remote is sadly made of cheap plastic and would've wrapped up the premium feel better if it was a silicone feel. What makes the set up for this unique is that it has full 360 degree rotation for its positioning. This allows for you to adapt to many areas most masturbators could only wish to go. The suction cup works well for laying the masturbator flat but if you hook it up upside down(under a desk for an example) the suction has come off mid session before for me. *How it feels: *: the thrusting motion moves approximately 3-4 inches with a 90 degree twist. Ready to go I warmed up the sleeve with a heating rod and sat in my desk chair while having the machine on my highest desk shelf. Turned on the thrusting on slow and turned the vibration to medium. First insert I literally gasped and inadvertently threw my head back. The sleeve feels *so fucking gooddd*, its the perfect tightness and the shape variation is larger so you can feel the textures better. The machine has a small hole so the suction when it retracts feels similar to a bj without being overstimulating. The 90 degree twist prevents the sleeve feeling numb to your dick, as a straight up and down can feel too plain after 5 minutes. The best part of this machine is the fact that you get to treat yourself without focusing on pressure, rhythm and energy that the other sex toys require you to hone in on. There are a few criticisms I still have. One is that the toy is quite loud and will require a fan to mask the noise when in use, otherwise it's quite obvious there's a machine on beyond your door. Another is that the vibration is on the weaker side for a machine this size, its still pleasurable but the rumbling pleasure is definitely lacking. I've used this about 20 times and the sleeve has lost some elasticity, I'd say after 40 uses you'll probably want to buy a new sleeve. Wrapping it up, the cleaning is incredibly easy since the sleeve can be pulled out. The sleeve is very flexible so squeezing excess water after cleaning makes it dry quickly(always use a drying rod after use). Even after using this machine many times I have yet to need to charge it due to its excellent battery life. Give your hands a break once in a while ;)

Prostate Toys

All dressed up with nowhere to go

I absolutely loved my first inflatable prostate toy and was blown away by the ability to make a toy any size I'd like it. So I decided to shop with the same brand and saw this very intriguing toy! The shape of it was something I've never seen a prostate have and the concept of the inflatable toy seemed to have great potential. Out of the box the silicone is soft to the touch and feels high quality, but the metal plate is clearly a cheap thin metal. It would've been better if they stuck with the silicone feel throughout or upgraded in metal quality. The remote is very light and made of cheap plastic. After being unimpressed with the material quality I was still hopeful for the performance. The prongs were larger than expected so inserting the toy is difficult to get in without quite a bit of warm up. The prongs also bow out so I have to constantly pinch them together for the first insert. Once I managed to get the prongs in I was ready for some good vibration! Well sadly there was very little power behind the vibration and had next to no rumble. I heard quite a loud noise and assumed I got a defective toy, so I pushed it out and realized the vibration of the prongs hit against the balloon in the middle, the more inflated the balloon the loud the toy got. Inflation wise the toy worked as intended and ballooned out the prongs. But the large size of the prongs fails to pinpoint the prostate and the base of the toy is too wide to really angle the toy where you want it. Probably the most cool looking anal toy I've owned but unfortunately its design is very poor for creating any anal pleasure.

A special dessert but not a quick snack

Having sleeves/masturbators in the past there has always been one thing missing...visuals. Although a nice pocket pussy can feel realistic on your dick it lacks in that major category. Often the best self-serve sessions are the ones where your mind can wonder a little. When using most pocket pussys because the sleeve often faces down while in use, I never get the visual pleasure of a toy. Ive bought Utimi toys in the past and thought to check out what they had in stock for more visually stimulating. At first sight I love the look of this sex doll, the curves are quite large but not to the point of be crazy unrealistic. The nipples are the same color as the rest of the doll, would be nicer if they were pink so they're more noticeable. If you haven't had a sex doll before you'll be surprised by the density and weight of them. I like how they included the neck and thick soft thighs but left out the face. Personally Ive never seen a sex doll with a face that doesn't look as creepy as Annabelle. The material is made of a very soft skin friendly silicone. You can squeeze the toy all the way to its core and has a nice jiggle while being firm enough to not collapse. Before getting right into the action I put my heating rod in the sex dolls vagina and lubed up the dolls inside. Heating rods only cost about $10 on Amazon so I recommend getting two of them for multi-hole toys. Note you may have to reapply lube after taking out the heating rod since a heating rod can dry up water based lubes. Now that we are prepped and in the mood I had my first insert. I immediately *melted* into the doll. The pussy felt very realistic and had a slightly tighter grip than an average woman, same to the ass. The doll has two thin vertical facing metal rods at its core. This allows for structure for positioning the toy. I use the doll on my bed and it holds very well missionary and doggy style. Unlike most masturbators having a sex doll allows hands to free up and really feel like you're not fucking yourself but you're fucking a person. I found it easy to use the doll while laying my phone on some pillows and watching my favorite kinks. Although I don't use my doll every session, it's that one treat I have to bring out every so often. Reason why I don't use it every session is the time heating up of the doll and **washing **. Washing a 6.5 LBS sex doll isn't made easy. There isn't any cleaning tool that is provided with the sex doll where I could clean this easily. I have to carry the whole thing under a faucet, which it barely fits and the position that it is in, the water when cleaning shoots straight in the air so I have to be extra careful. Finally I highly recommend buying diatomite drying rods, this is for bacteria control, I've used these rods dozens of times with no sign of order. They take about 15 minutes to absorb the moisture in the doll.

Convince comes at a cost

Before this small thrusting machine I had a larger sized machine. Although the larger size worked well for the most part, the setting up, cords, dials, and angle set up takes forever and can kill the mood with the effort it took to finally get down and dirty. So I was on the look out for a more convenient machine to get thrusted. Out of the box I noticed just how light the thruster was. Which wasn't a surprise given the machine only costs $38. It's made of a cheaper plastic but seems to still hold well. Mounting the toy was super easy and the suction cup is incredibly strong. The suction cup uses a lever so dismounting was easy as well. You get two attachments both are made of a firm yet soft silicone. Love the shapes and textures of these, both measure about 5 to 6 inches in length. They are very easy to detach and switch out. Now putting it in action: Initially getting these in are no issue and more beginners should be able to take this size with a quick warm up. The heating function works very well, I have several toys in a similar price range where the heating is not noticeable at all, this one that is not the case. Feels so much better when they don't feel like a cold hot dog going up your ass lol. Vibration works very well, not much rumble to them but the vibration is pretty respectable for the toys size. The thrusting has one major flaw...or plus depending on your preferences. The speeds of the thruster are fast, faster, and fastest. Id personally prefer a slow, medium and fast option. Personally I love fast for the first 3-4 inches but for going beyond 4 inches I love a nice slow thrust. Which I feel like this is the case for most after reading the written reviews of the product. The strength of the thrust once met with resistance is a fair medium, where the first insert can stop the thrust but once your in then the toys a charm. **Whose this toy meant for?** This is for someone who prioritizes convenience and price over getting the maximum out of a thruster. It's good for those who want a fast bang without the hassle of cords.

Some doors are better opened gradually

A purchase I wish I made wayyy sooner. For years I had the same prostate toy and the same routine with it. I would use a full water bottle with warm water, press it against my ass and shove about half of the bottle in. I'd then shoot out the water into the toilet, lay down and finger my asshole for about 3 to 4 minutes before shoving my favorite(and only at the time) prostate toy. From doing this routine I noticed some issues but didn't really know if I was doing something wrong or if that's just how it was. My first issue was that going from a finger to a medium sized toy came with high discomfort and took a good amount of time before that pain went away. My second issue was that about 10 minutes into my anal sessions Id have dirty watery matter coming out even though I thought I shot all the water out and cleaned my self well. I got curious about anal stretching and started to collect more anal pleasures and thought about getting an anal training kit. I was surprised to find out how cheap they were. After getting my kit and using it for the start of every anal session, I must say an anal training kit is not a want but a absolute need. A douche makes it easy to insert and angle in your ass just make sure you still use a little bit of lube to get it in. The bulb is 90 ML/3 Oz, you may think that the more water the better the flush but with anal 90% of the time that is worse. When you use more than 3 ounces of water to clean out your rectum that excess water will go into sigmoid colon and descending colon. Toys in your anal sessions will never reach that deep so its often not practical to clean that far, in rare cases you'd only clean that deep for extreme and multiple hour long sessions. That excess water will disturb unformed fecal matter but will stay in you for 10-20 minutes, only then when you are comfortable the worst will show. That's why you only want to use a little water each time I recommend using 3/4th of the bulbs capacity up to 3 times. If you have firm bowel movements then likely only one flush of the build with me plenty. I ordered the anal kit that instead of a short ball like shape I found longer shaped training plug. I highly recommend this so that you can stretch more muscles deeper for your anal prep. The base is in a T shape, this makes the plugs more wearable as circle bases can irritate your ass cheeks. To stretch start with the smallest and work your way up. **You need movement** to stretch yourself out. Putting a plug in and leaving it all the way in only helps you initially get used to the size but will not stretch you, you need to slowly go in and out repeatedly to loosen yourself up. Really you can buy any anal kit you want and it will be a massive help to you easing yourself into sessions. I just recommend you get a T bar base for comfort and a longer plug to help stretch deeper parts of the rectum. Don't skip the need for a enema bulb, measuring how much water is critical.

Not all bdsm kits are made equal

In Toronto I bought my first BDSM kit, it had a whip, small paddle and some rope in a cardboard packaging. It was only about $30, the whip was a lot of fun and held for months until it sadly started to fall apart. The paddle was pretty light so it didn't go in use too much and the rope was nice but took a while to tie. I didn't really think of what could've been better than what you got, seemed to do the job. I was then browsing for my sex toy when this kit popped out. With 21 pieces it had a little bit of everything! The case looked cool and I thought why not give it a shot. Once it arrived I then understood why this was a $72 kit. It. was. premium. The leather case feels thick and authentic. Opening up the kit everything was individually wrapped and fit neatly in its own compartment. The quality of the materials is consistently well done but the functionality varied. For example the leather blind fold is too stiff to mold around someones face and completely block light. The rope is a bit too thin so it can easily dig into the skin. But then the whip was a nice middle weight and was easy to use. Ball gag, paddles, and dice are all tons of fun! All the anal toys are very high quality and I love the weight of the golden butt plug. As far as using the restraints it's easy on the wrists and ankles with its paddling. But it was confusing on what connecting to what and with all the individual pieces it was as if I was building a Lego set before restraining someone, kinda kills the dominance mood. The tape on the other hand is a rubber tape that sticks to itself, that was very easy to use. I'd say this kit is good if you'd like a little bit of everything, the organized case is the best part of this kit.

If there’s a ‘best kept secret’ of anal play, this might be it

Lubes

If there’s a ‘best kept secret’ of anal play, this might be it

For years I only used one form of lubricant for anal-olive oil. It was readily available, lasts a long time, is fairly cheap, and seemed to work just fine for both penile and anal play. I tried water based lubes from common brands for anal but I found it to be too slick, dries out insanely fast and even water based lube was pricey for how quick you go through it. So I stuck with the olive oil until I was met with a problem and a curious question. The problem was when I went to use my larger dildos I needed a ton of olive oil to get started and the olive oil would run off the toys quickly resulting in a lot of waste. My curious question was bought to me when watching extreme anal stretching. What is that slimy and thick lube they use when going for suck large toys? I noticed how they don't use water based and often the lube is in a sports water bottle. So I did some research and found out about powdered lubes. I read many reviews of the different kinds of powdered lubes that you just add water to and one name kept popping up as the golden standard...X-Lube. The official definition: X-Lube is a pure, single-ingredient powder concentrate made of polyethylene oxide. Unlike other powder or liquid lubricants that use up to 75% sugar fillers, salts, or chemical preservatives, it is entirely inert, meaning it will not get tacky, stain fabrics, or feed bacteria. This lube is widely known as the lube specialized for anal fisting. The smallest size they have in stock is 100 grams, and after shipping it is about $40 which made me hesitate on buying lube at that price. The thing is 100 grams of this can make OVER 5 GALLONS of lube and the powder itself has an expiration date years away. So I thought I'd take the bite given I wont be buying lube for a longggg time if this stuff works. Once arrived I immediately created some lube. First you want to grab a squeezable sports water bottle. You are supposed to pour water in first then add the powder. Once made the lube is good for about two weeks so make only the amount you'd use in two weeks. For me I fill the bottle only a third of the way up, you want to have the lube be thick for anal play so I find a cap and a half of the powder to be good for a 1/3 of a bottle. Shake for 20 seconds and wait 20 minutes. The longer you wait the more consistent the lube will be. Now testing it out, this lube is very stringy when created thick so if you don't like it thick just add more water. The lube stayed on my toys very well and it was the perfect amount of slipperiness. I did not have to add lube constantly and when I did need lube I was able to use it generously because of how cheap it is to make per bottle. This lube has no smell and can't create a permanent stain on fabric. Something I had to worry about with the olive oil. Being able to control the thickness of the lube is a game changer and has allowed me to take on my largest toys that I struggled to get in before. Buy it once and enjoy the perfect lube for anal for a long long time.

The 3 Sexy Stooges

I've been a customer of BestVibe in the past and was familiar with the quality of the build. When I saw that they had a similar product I've had in the past but now it had 2 vibrating bullets for the sleeves instead of one as well as 3 Sleeves I just had to try it for price. The packaging is very professional and minimal. The cup seems to be well built and the sleeves are very soft. The anal sleeve is very consistent in texture similar to a real rectum which who doesn't want that. The pussy sleeve has a nice variance in texture and feels quite realistic. Lastly the mouth sleeve is very smooth and could use just a little texture and shape to the tongue. After getting myself all horned up I was ready to test the vibration, suction, and texture of the sleeves. I started off with using a heating stick to make the first experience more realistic. Highly recommend a heating stick for all masturbators! You can get one for cheap on Amazon for $10 that has an auto shut off for safety. The pussy sleeve felt amazing and had a comfortable tightness that wasn't overstimulating when approaching orgasm. The vibration was strong and is an excellent plus to any sleeve. There is one major flaw with the cup...the suction. The suction is powerful and feels heavenly but unfortunately once you put the suction on medium or higher and stroke up and down the sleeves consistently collapse into the cup and break the seal. This is quite frustrating while in the middle of a session. So I'd recommend uses it on low suction or staying still on medium and high suction. For the anal sleeve I find it to be the best out of the three when in use. The mouth I did not care for as it was too smooth on the tongue. Overall its good value for $50 as you get three sleeves and get a vibration and suction function.

Mighty in size and curvature

This dildo was my first jump into the big fellas. After years of using average size dildos and prostate toys I was ready for a challenge, I wanted something big. I was brought into the world of anal stretching and the immense pleasure from being filled. I highly recommend going for a larger anal toy(7+ inches length, 5+ inches girth) for those who are not new to the anal space and want not just a physical challenge but a mental one! If you find the right dildo that is just out of your current abilities and overcome its size you'll get hooked to see if you can go up another level. There is a great deal of pleasure from feeling your rectum filled to the max. First step is being able to insert it in next step is to see how well you can fuck that monster of a toy. Now onto the ins and outs of this specific dildo. The material is a bit more rubbery rather than soft but is not irritating to the anus. The dildo has a strong curve to it which makes it a challenge to insert about 3 inches in, but once you get to 5 inches in then the curve isn't so difficult. The angle allows for light prostate stimulation but the size of it will make it difficult to angle and adjust for prostate play. The vibration is on the weaker side, especially given that its size should be able to fit decent size motors. The thrusting feature is fairly strong, although it only goes fast, faster, and fastest. Would be nice if it you could get a slow anal massage as an option. The heating function was sadly the biggest disappointment as it takes 15 minutes to heat up and the heat is hardly noticeable. Where this toy shines is in its size and shape and strong suction cup. The slight curve feels really good once I'm able to go in deep and is more stimulating having that tip press against my walls over just a straight dildo. The suction cup is strong and makes this toy a blast to ride. Using your body to get a toy in vs just your hands is a unique experience I recommend to all, feels more like something is fucking you rather than you fucking yourself. Overall Id say take the pros from this dildo and find another one that has better vibration, more variability of thrusting, and a softer material.

A precision fit for progressive stretching

Looking for another toy this one caught my eye saying it was inflatable. I thought: Does that mean I have to constantly blow it up? Does it get stretched out and wear out quickly? How does it blow up without a hand pump? I just had to know. The toy comes with a remote, one button for vibration and one for inflation. The inflation motor is built into the product so no external pump needed. Initially putting in my ass after a little warm up, the vibration has much more rumble that most of my other toys, which I find rumbling to give more pleasure. The material is a soft silicone, gentle on the ass. The original size of the toy is comfortable for beginners, but the inflation makes this an excellent toy for anal training. The toy inflates up to a lacrosse ball size and can be inflated to the millimeter of where you want it. This eliminates the need to have a large set of different toy sizes to prep for your larger toys. It holds its inflation even if its met with a great deal of pressure and deflates quickly after pressing the deflate button. The angle of the toy allows me to easily angle it to the prostate, the bluntness of the toy gives more of a general prostate massage rather than being able to pinpoint spots of the prostate. I recommend inflating it for 3 seconds as I find that's the perfect size to stimulate the prostate. Has excellent battery life and would recommend this as the perfect toy for anal stretching and versatility.

Swiss Army Knife of Prostate Toys

After years of shoving an array of produce, tubes, and other forbidden household objects up my ass I decided to make the jump. I was ready to buy my first sex toy. By then I was familiar with the prostate so I decided to go on Amazon and search prostate toys. I saw one that had heating, vibration and movement! Once it arrived I did a make shift enema with a water bottle and prepped with my fingers. First insert and right then I knew it was the best $30 I've ever spent. Now 6 years later of still using this toy every anal session I got some options so let get into it! The toy is approximately 6 inches long with a medium girth, most beginners could have this comfortably inserted after 5-10 minutes of anal warm up. The shape is angled just enough to perfectly put as much pressure as you'd like on your prostate without having to contort your wrists. The heating feature overall works well and feels heavenly with the first insert. The heat is primarily in the center of the toy and doesn't reach the tip nor base of the product. It takes about 8 minutes for it to reach its top temperature. The vibration is respectable but I have lots of other toys with even higher vibration ability. It's vibration based but does not have much rumble to it, which I personally get more pleasure from rumbling. The tip mechanically moves back and forth about 30 degrees which creates an excellent come hither motion for the prostate. You control the toy through an app but I personally find remotes for toys to be much easier. The vibrating cup for your balls does not reach high enough while angling the toy for your prostate. What makes this toy an absolute banger is the value you get for three functions, and its ability to target the prostate with its soft yet ridge design. Highly recommend adding this toy to get to know what a little bit of everything feels like!
