Sex Toy Guides

Fleshlights were conceived by one man during the pregnancy state of his wife. Being highly sexed, he was looking for a replacement as they were informed by their doctor not to have intercourse. This was back in 1995, and from the early days, it took 2 years before production finally began. Ever since then, the discretion of the fleshlight was one of the prime motives, aside from delivering the most realistic sexual sensations among penis toys. The inventor succeeded on both counts, and through lots of trial and error. And once the fleshlight was born, it was the first fake vagina to be mass-produced that delivered realistic sensations. It was also unique because it came in a hard outer case that was shaped like a flashlight. Since then, there have been other variations from the original company model, and new sleeves developed to deliver new sensations, many of which are molded on famous porn actresses. There are a few variations from different manufacturers, but a fleshlight will always remain a fleshlight, and they are very rarely equaled in what they deliver. One of the main secrets to the success of the fleshlight is the suction it provides each time you try withdrawing the penis. This produces the best suction experience on top of the very realistic feeling that they deliver. With these, it’s easy to see why they are such a success and took the ‘world of masturbation for men’ by storm. What is a Fleshlight? These are shaped like a flashlight, and once the cap is unscrewed, it reveals the inner sleeve which resembles a woman’s vagina. They are designed in such a way that when a man masturbates using these, they receive the same sensations as if they are having sexual intercourse. The fleshlights are fully waterproof, so men can easily take these into the shower or the bathtub and have some self-gratification with no worries of damaging their sex toy. And because of their exterior design, they are discreet and can easily be thrown into a bag with no one being any wiser that a male sex toy is being carried around, which makes them one of the most popular sex toys for men. The inner sleeve, which was molded from a real woman’s anatomy, is soft, flexible and very realistic to the touch. Deep inside the internal channel, there are nodules, and the depth of the device should accommodate the longest of penises. Since the original device was created, there have been modifications, and they now come with inner parts which are molded from porn star’s genitalia. Newer models now come with a suction function that simulates oral sex for the user, just to give another dimension to what looks like an inconspicuous flashlight. One of the later models is coined as a ‘stamina training unit.’ This is tighter and packed full of inner ribs and bumps to help build up stamina before ejaculation. It fully replicates the feelings of intercourse, and with regular use, it can help sexual activity last longer. It helps men to sustain ejaculation and can aid in prolonging it, if used for that purpose. ===COLLECTION=== Benefits of Fleshlights Fleshlights come with unique benefits for males. Masturbation is said to improve the function of the prostate and the pelvic floor muscles too. So, with regular masturbation using a fleshlight, both of these will get the workout they need. This helps men who suffer from erectile dysfunction. Stress can also be reduced because when men ejaculate, the body is flooded with feel-good hormones. This can lift the mood and make them feel happier while lowering stress levels at the same time. Fleshlights introduced the stamina training kit. This can help men who suffer from premature ejaculation, or for ones who wish to last longer in bed before ejaculation. Sexual performance can be significantly improved by regular masturbation with this model of fleshlight. Fleshlights replicate sexual intercourse, and this they do probably better than many other products on the market. Not only can vaginal intercourse be copied, but they now deliver oral or anal sex sensations which are as close to the real thing as men can get via the use of sex toys. The stimulation received from using a fleshlight is far ahead of masturbation with the hand. On occasions, it can be hard to get and maintain an erection through regular masturbation, but this is never a problem using fleshlights for discrete masturbation. Fleshlights also allow men to have a simulated one nightstand. Masturbation with something that really feels like a vagina can vastly improve the experience and also allow men to seek a different type of pleasure. One benefit that many users are unaware of is the end cap; this can be twisted in one direction or the other. This can increase or decrease suction as you thrust inside the fleshlight. Fleshlights are also suitable for use in the comfort of the bed or any other location, and they are equally great for use in the shower or the bathtub too. This is very different from other soft materials, as fleshlights don’t absorb moisture like other pocket pussies will. Different Fleshlight Types With fleshlights, you can change the inner sleeve. This gives you the opportunity to experience very different sensations or interchange orifices if you so wish. Here are some of the groups of fleshlights you can find: ‘Sex in a can’ made fleshlights: These are smaller than a regular fleshlight and are a vagina in a beer can. These still deliver the same fantastic sensations you can receive from a regular fleshlight Fleshlight training kits: This is designed to help men last longer before ejaculation. It does take self control though, and this is because it delivers intense stimulation. They are intended to push any man to the edge where he can hang on before finishing, and thus improve added sexual performance as a gain. Butt fleshlights: These are designed as an anus, and like all other fleshlights, they deliver the ultimate experience. And in this case, it’s the simulation of anal sex. Oral sex fleshlights: These are designed to deliver the best fake oral sex experience. While they are unable to be the same as a warm mouth, they do come a very close second. Tight fit fleshlights: These are designed for the guy who enjoys the tight-fitting feeling. Aside from that, they’re also suitable for the guy who has a smaller penis, and when a larger sleeve doesn’t deliver the same amount of stimulation. Fleshlight girls: These are a full range of fleshlights that are modeled and molded on female porn actresses. Why does any man need a fake vagina when they can have one that’s molded from a real woman? Big fleshlights: Even guys who are well endowed like to masturbate. Although the casing might not be as discrete, these are well-designed with the guy and his larger penis in mind. Vibrating fleshlights: With plenty of stimulation for the realistic sleeves, things hit new levels with added vibrations. Fleshlights now come with vibrating motors to keep on delivering unique sensations. Alien fleshlights: For ‘out of this world’ experiences, there are some exotic models in production. Along with aliens, there are also freak fleshlights that are more monstrous in design. Material Types The choice of materials in the use of fleshlights is very limited, and in most cases, they are constructed from only two materials. The original formula is patented as SuperSkin. The formula for this is a trade secret. SuperSkin is phthalate free and non-toxic. This means it’s body safe for most male users. It’s soft and supple too, which delivers the most unique feeling that replicates the human skin. The only downside to this material is that it can’t be thoroughly sterilized like some other materials can, but it can be easily cleaned. There is also no odor or taste from this compound creation. The fleshlight material is also suitable for use around water; this alone makes it unique when compared to other materials that are made to replicate vaginas. The outer case is made from ABS plastic; this is also body safe and non-toxic. This can’t be sterilized, but it’s non-porous and is very easy to clean. ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is durable and takes very little care to keep clean. This comes with no added phthalates and no odor or taste. While many adult sex toys can be washed in warm soapy water, the company recommends not using soap, and the best way to sanitize the sleeves is to use isopropyl alcohol. As an aside, they also recommend water based lubes to be used, as oil based will degrade the material inside the sleeves. If this happens, it can be easy for bacteria to take hold, and as they encase the penis, this bacterium can quickly be passed back into the body. How to Choose the Right Fleshlight for You Although fleshlights are all very similar, there are a few things to consider in your purchase. There are types that will attract all men with their various designs, but here are the main things you need to ponder over. Penis length and girth: Girth is just as important as length. This is because of the internal diameters of the sleeves. If the inner size is too small, then it can cause discomfort, and if it’s too large, you will be missing out on the incredible sensations you can receive. Fleshlights do have various sections which you can choose from. Color options: There are three basic colors you can choose from. These being pink, ice or mocha. Pink is more popular as this gives the look of a real vagina, as does the mocha for the men who like their skin color on the darker side. Ice is transparent, and you can get this in a clear case. This allows the user to see what’s happening with their penis during masturbation, for that real, voyeuristic experience. Fleshlight openings: Not all men want the experience of a realistic vagina. There are also mouth and anus openings available if you desire something different. The anus sleeve is the tightest of all three, while the vaginal sheath has the largest opening. On top of this, there are fleshlights that are designed to look like the female porn stars they are molded from. You may think they are representations, but these are actual, original moldings from their vaginas. There are many sensations available from fleshlights. These come in textured or smooth, and they will deliver very unique experiences. The common texture types are as follows: Original – smooth: 3/4 inch internal diameter STU – stamina training unit; textured; 1/2 inch inner diameter Wonder Wave – textured: 1/2 inch inner diameter Super ribbed – textured: 1/2 inch inner diameter Speed bump – textured: 1/2 inch inner diameter Super tight – smooth: 1/2 inch internal diameter Ultra tight – smooth: 1/4 inch inner diameter Can Fleshlights Last a Long Time? Companies state that fleshlights can last a lifetime, but in reality, this doesn’t happen because of wear and tear. If cleaned and preserved correctly, they can last years with no real side effects, but with removing and reinserting into the case repeatedly, it is possible to get micro tears in the fabric. This is the most common reason fleshlights meet the end of their life, more quickly than is expected. It is crucial to follow the manufacturer's recommendations, and when doing this, you can get years of service and pleasure from your fleshlight. Once you follow the recommended cleaning advice from the manufacturer, the primary way to preserve a fleshlight is by using the recommended renewal powder. This is cornstarch, so you can easily swap this for regular cornstarch from the grocery store if you need to. This should only be added when the inside of your fleshlight is totally dry. Fleshlights can last for years, but by then you might be looking for a change of sensation and decide on purchasing another. It’s fun to have a range anyway. One thing users might not realize they need to do before using a fleshlight, is to remove it from its case and warm it up with warm water, and this can take around 20 minutes to do. Cleaning & Storage Tips Washing your fleshlight is as simple as removing it from the outer case and rinsing it under warm water. After this, they should be air dried thoroughly. You can purchase toy cleaner, and also a powder which is used to help preserve the inner sleeve. Both of these are highly recommended purchases. Many vibrator types should be kept away from areas where there are dust and fluff, and fleshlights are no exception. The sleeve material does feel sticky when it isn’t lubricated enough, and this can cause lint or other debris to stick to it. Keeping them in their outer case is advised once they are dry. This will stop the attraction of said lint and the possible growth of bacteria and mold. Because a fleshlight has its own case, the need to keep them away from other sex toys is minimized, although recommended. Although, keeping them in a cool and dry area should be carried out as a matter of necessity too. After each use, the sleeve must be removed from the case so the case can be washed with warm soapy water. The suction cup at the bottom should receive the most attention because this is where most of the ejaculation fluid accumulates. You then need to get your fingers inside the sleeve and scoop out any remains before filling the sleeve with water and shaking vigorously. The sleeve then needs to be sprayed with the official fleshlight cleaner. When storing, the end caps should be left loose so air can circulate inside the outer case. Some Safety Considerations While there are safety considerations to consider, fleshlights have been designed to be safe. All the materials are body safe, so there should be no interactions with sensitive skin. Lubrication can be seen as one of the main things you’ll have to consider. If you have a fleshlight which is of the tighter design, this could lead to pain and chafing if you haven’t applied enough lube to the channel, and to your penis. With the numerous bumps and nodules, this can cause unnecessary rubbing. So watch out for that. Some of the newer models also come with battery powered eggs which provide vibrations. And although these are sealed to keep moisture out, care should be taken if used around excessive amounts of water. Batteries should also be removed from these between uses to protect the housing, and in case any of the batteries leak. Another area is the material that the inner sleeves are made from. This is a secret, so it is hard to say what cleaners should and shouldn’t be used. The manufacturer does tell users to keep soap away from the inner sleeve because this will break down the material. With this in mind, you should always check the sleeves for any sign of wear or cracks in the material, because this can become a breeding ground for bacteria. One thing which might be missed by eager users of their new fleshlights, is to remove the plastic tube from the inside channel before using. This is there to stop the material from sticking together during storage and transport only. Common Questions People Ask How can I use my fleshlight hands-free? The most well-known method is the shoe method. You place your fleshlight in a shoe and insert your penis as if you were having sex in the missionary position. Sometimes you can place it in between a high set of mattresses too. Why should I purchase a fleshlight? You can use a fleshlight in any situation where you would use your hand, be it watching porn or laying on your bed daydreaming. It can also introduce sensitivity back into your penis after years of manual masturbation with your hand and also help you delay your ejaculation, with practice; if that’s your goal. Which fleshlight do you recommend for a short penis? Because there are so many sleeve types available, you should check one which has a texture that starts toward the fleshlight opening. Also, if you can see which ones have the same texture all the way down the channel, then you will get the same stimulation down the length of your shaft too. What are fleshlights made from? The actual material is a closely guarded secret. The name of the material is SuperSkinNo. No other products in the sex toy market are made with the same material. It is for this reason that fleshlights are unique and are adored by millions of satisfied men around the world. How many will you buy? That’s really the only question here. Additional Things to Consider One of the first things which needs considering is that: a fleshlight can’t be used for quick masturbation. They need warming up beforehand. There are two ways of doing this. So here, you can soak it in warm water or hot water --but the microwave should never be used.Once it’s warm and inserted back into the plastic sleeve, you need to add a generous amount of lubrication. Water-based ones are advised by the fleshlight company. If you think that soaking it in warm water is too much effort, you can get insertable heating rods. These are quickly slid inside the opening and will plug into any USB socket. When it comes to cleaning a fleshlight, this is a little different and shouldn’t be forgotten as it can spoil the surface of the sleeve. Soap should never be used, and this material isn’t supposed to be sterilized. Instead, you can wipe it down with isopropyl alcohol. To wash, the recommended way is to cool-run water through the sleeve. You do need to make sure you remove all traces of semen that may have accumulated inside. You also need to know that they must be thoroughly dry before storing, and this means inside as well as outside. You can do this by passing a lint-free cloth through the channel. Some users find that the sleeve becomes sticky after use. And while you may think there’s something wrong with your fleshlight, it is natural, and it can require covering in renewal powder. This is recommended, but it will remove any shiny appearance the sleeve has around its opening. You can purchase different sleeves separately and use the same case too. However, this can make storage more difficult, as lint or dust can be attracted and stick to the sleeve. While looking for cons of using a fleshlight, there are not many at all. The most significant being the cleaning aspect. They do take some care to keep them in the best condition, but if you follow the recommendations correctly, they can last for years. One final thing you need to consider is the cost and your budget. Although fleshlights deliver the ultimate in masturbation experience, they are far from the cheapest sex toys for men on the market. They do take a considerable investment for something that’s only used for masturbation. But… most guys who have one will tell you that they’re way worth every penny spent! Some guys even have multiple fleshlights!

Anal vibrators are designed for enjoyable and intense stimulation of the anal cavity or anus. They are used by both men and women for sexual play. All anal vibrators have the same go-to feature, and that is that they promote and sustain a vibrating effect in the rectum for the sheer pleasure of the user. Anal vibrators are unique because they have a flared base to prevent them from getting stuck inside the rectum. The anal vibrator is much smaller in size and will be from four to six inches in length, and about an inch in width, in most cases. In fact, anal vibrators are usually operated via battery operation. This will be via a rechargeable battery for wall to plug use, or utilizing disposable batteries which can be replaced when they have used their charge. All types of vibrating anal toys may or may not have various featured effects. But some of them will have actions that include: rotation, vibration or pulsation, and most will allow for different speed or vibration levels which can be adjusted so that the user can enjoy various sensations during play. Types of Anal Vibrators Vibrating Anal Probes: These are smaller and are around the size of a human finger, and this makes them a wonderful sex toy for beginners. Anal probe vibrators are also slimmer because their primary function is to slide and vibrate as they give pleasure. Vibrating Butt Plugs: Well designed to stay inside the anus to create a feeling of fullness and maintain the vibrating stimulation in conjunction with that full feeling. They may be placed and left for anal stimulation during masturbation, or during sexual play and/or intercourse. Vibrating Anal Beads & Balls: Containing a number of small beads or balls which link together via a retrievable cord which connects to a powered control. They usually are able to vibrate at different speeds depending on the model you buy. ===COLLECTION=== How to Choose the Right Anal Vibrators for You It’s highly recommended that you choose a smaller product to begin with, and this is generally because you can always work your way up to larger ones as your body becomes accustomed to anal play. Anal plugs can be utilized during sexual intercourse and solo play and offer an enjoyable feeling of fullness that many people find very pleasurable and satisfying. The most popular anal sex toys are usually butt plugs, anal beads and vibrators, maintaining the feature of the flared base to incorporate safety and a feeling of total control for the user. What Are the Benefits For men, the stimulation of the prostate can offer an array of health and sensual benefits that go hand in hand. The prostate, likened to the male equivalent of a woman’s G-spot, is a medium, pebble-sized, semen storage gland. It lives at the base of the penis and is located just below the bladder. It can be aroused externally through pressure against the perineum and/or internally via the rectum. Anal stimulation seems to garner better results within the sexual arena though, especially when compared to pressure on the perineum. Factually speaking, semen can build up in the prostate, creating the potential for bacterial growth and no movement in that area. This can cause swelling and inflammation or a condition known as prostatitis. Overall, the take home message is that an enlarged prostate can allow for unwanted urinary and erectile problems, which are stressful and uncomfortable for the male. These conditions may disrupt sleep and sexual function within males. So, additionally, utilizing prostate massage can help to relax tension and stress in the muscles and nerve endings within the prostate area, and prevent the symptoms mentioned earlier. Masturbation for Both Sexes The big plus for men and women alike, is that masturbation is a beneficial practice. We already touched on how it can reduce the risk of prostatitis and thus help to prevent the potential risk of developing prostate cancer in men. Many studies have proven that men aged 20-50 years who masturbated more than 5 times each week were 33% less likely to develop prostate cancer. In essence, carcinogens are flushed out from the prostate gland during ejaculation, which in turn helps in reducing the buildup of seminal fluid. For men and women, masturbation reduces stress and tension. When we engage in sexual pleasure, we produce dopamine. This is a wonderful hormone that makes us feel great and endorphins are released which gives us a sense of overall wellbeing. The blood pressure is also relieved by the lowering of it, after masturbation. Masturbation is self-maintained and therefore means that it’s a stress-free act. There is no performance needed toward another, making it the easiest thing we can achieve on our own, once we feel at ease to do so. Additionally, there is no risk of contracting sexual diseases or infections when masturbating, due to the lack of physical contact with another. Masturbation can be a big help when one partner requires more sexual activity than the other person. It can also help couples to find extra ways of satisfying their partners sexually. Additionally, if it feels good when you do it, then you can tell your partner too. Masturbation also aids in self awareness and sexual satisfaction. People who masturbate are more likely to have better sexual health. This is because they are aware of how their body feels and so they will generally notice when something is not right, like if they feel stressed, for example. Using an anal vibrator during masturbation can help to get to the end game of orgasm, and this helps to encourage great health and self exploration, sexually speaking. This is true for solo or partnered play. Safety Considerations Perhaps the most common safety consideration is about risk, or losing your vibrator inside of your rectum. It’s super important that you don’t use a vaginal vibrator inside your anus, because it definitely increases this risk. To avoid this, you should ensure that your vibrator always has a flared base. It can get lost otherwise, and this is not something you want to try. Use loads of lube. Don’t use silicone-based lube with a silicone sex toy. It can actually break down the surface of the toy and allow it to become porous, which in turn can allow for bacterial or viral health concerns. Remember, lubrication is the most pivotal aspect of all, especially for anal play. Without great lubrication, it might lead to irritation, chaffing, tearing, and even bleeding. So if you plan to insert something anally, make sure it is smothered with lube, and then it will slide in painlessly and with ease. ===COLLECTION=== Cleaning & Storage Tips In truth, the very best way to clean any sex toy is often to follow the directions on the packaging. These cleaning directions are made to effectively clean your toys and keep them in their best shape. Storage indications will also apply. A good bathing with soap and hot water is usually perfect for most sex toys. Lather up the toy with a major addition of antibacterial soap and let the foam sit there for a few moments to kill bacteria and other viral germs. Be sure to keep the battery section out of the water though. And never plug it in during cleaning if it’s a rechargeable toy. Use the hottest water you can to thoroughly rinse and clean the toy well, with a good rinse to avoid leaving any soapy residue behind. Plain warm-to-hot water may be the best option to clean some toys, without the need for antibacterial or disinfectant-type soaps. This is particularly the case for adult toys made from porous substances, including rubber or vinyl. In these cases, these materials will trap and hold soaps and other chemicals within their makeup. Whether you’re cleaning a toy with or without soap, depending upon the substance it’s made from, it should be allowed to air dry and can even be dusted with cornstarch to prevent stickiness. The Best Anal Vibrator Will Always Have These 3 Things 1. Ease of use. The anal vibrator will be easy to charge or have a section for batteries with visual to help place them. The product should also come with instructions and a cleaning regime for that specific product. 2. Features to enhance play and keep it safe. Speed settings, cleaning instructions, storage suggestions, and any safety precautions. A set of instructions explaining how the toy is used. A long battery life. A choice of colors and sizes for all to enjoy. 3. Be made of nonporous materials. For safety and to negate the spread of infection. Cleaning and storage instructions are also a big plus when making your purchase. Anal Vibrators Can Spice Up Your Sex Life Anal play is super exciting and can be even better when paired with an anal vibrator. Adding stimulus that shakes during your anal play experience can often lead to some very explosive and amazing orgasms. The types of anal vibrators that you choose will typically be determined by what type of play you like. Remember, start small, but try a few different types to see what feels good for you. Anal orgasms are achieved by stimulation of the anus. This type of penetration can indirectly stimulate the G-spot for females, and very directly stimulate the prostate for males. The use of anal vibrators can allow for fun play and the sexual gratification desired, whether going solo or with a partner. Try Anal Vibrators in Privacy of Your Home Discretion is the major key for relaxation purposes and privacy too. You may or may not like the sensation. Trying such a new sex toy in the privacy of your own home can be a fun and unique experience. Make sure you buy an anal vibrator with a flared base for safety, lubricate it very well, and enjoy the pleasure from your toy. Always allow your body to relax first, and once you try it, you’ll be able to pick out the best anal vibrator for you. It’ll be up to you on the size, color, features, and type that you choose to buy. You might want to own more than one, and keep your sexual play super adventurous. But remember, the most important thing to do is to have fun, both safely and effectively. Remember to never share your toys. STIs (sexually transmitted diseases) and infections can be shared that way. Stay safe, always. Your fun should never cause risk to yourself or another.

Ah, the thrill of having a dirty little secret all to ourselves. It’s no surprise that butt plugs feel amazing, thanks to all the nerve endings located in our anus.

Keep in mind that butt plugs are not gender-specific – butt plugs can be enjoyed just as well whether you have female or male genitalia! If you’re single, butt plugs may be just what you need to get out of your own head, and kill your nerves before a first date. The amazing stimulation will help you to loosen up and get excited for whatever the night will bring. The feeling of being stimulated while you’re face-to-face with someone in a crowded restaurant can be invigorating. The forbidden aspect paired with the added arousal helps you to feel sexier and more seductive, and this type of energy will translate to your date. If you think your date may end with a roll in the sack, then a butt plug is just what you need. It helps to prep your anus for more play later, or simply to get you in the mood for some kinky action. ===COLLECTION=== Night Out As we get older, the nights we spend out with friends become less frequent and are way more cherished. Simply put, you don’t want the quality of your night to depend on where you go or who you meet since sometimes, the options are simply a bust. So, have your bases covered and commit to a night filled with delight –no matter what happens– by wearing your favorite butt plug! Indulge in your exhibitionist fantasies by wearing a butt plug under your skirt during a night out! If you get a thrill from the chance that you’ll get caught doing something taboo, you can have some real fun by sporting a jeweled butt plug under a short dress or skirt. Moreover, in case you haven’t tried it before, dancing feels wonderful with a butt plug in. As you move around, the plug will shift around slightly inside your anus, further stimulating the nerves. If you’re out dancing with a partner, lean in close to their ear midway through, and let them know you’re wearing a butt plug. Watch their expressions go from shock to arousal in seconds! In case you don’t want to worry about keeping the plug in for too long or having to reapply lube while you’re out, just plug it in while you’re getting ready for your night out. Despite it feeling amazing and helping you to relax and loosen up, it will also help you to get into a flirty, sexy headspace before embarking on your journey. Getting into a seductive mood before seeing where the night will take you is a recipe for success! ===COLLECTION=== Final Words It’s safe to say that wearing a butt plug can really brighten up your day. Whether you’re wearing it to prepare your anus for some play later, to add some fun into your routine, or for the sake of feeling naughty, it’s the perfect toy to easily incorporate into your life. Beyond the sexual delight that butt plugs bring, they also give users an unspoken confidence that will radiate outwardly. Sexuality should be celebrated, not shamed, and butt plugs help you to experiment more with your own pleasure, while giving you the option of keeping it to yourself or letting someone else in on your dirty little secret. Besides, who said that pleasure had to be confined within four walls?

You wouldn’t attempt to do the splits without practice, would you? You would probably need a lot of stretching and training before finally getting there. Turns out, it’s the same thing when it comes to stretching your anus! Anal gaping is an act that’s a few steps further than anal stretching – in fact, it’s probably the most extreme form of anal play. When your anus is gaped, your internal rectum muscles are exposed, and it can take hours for your anus to recover. What Is Anal Gaping? A gape is an opening in the anus caused by stretching for an extended period of time. This could be done through anal sex, but it’s usually done with larger toys. Inserting the penis or toy in the anus for longer gives your muscles the time they need to adjust so that upon removing the toy from your anus, you’ll find that your anus is gaping. But don’t worry – it’ll usually go back to normal after a little bit. Anal gaping is a unique form of play that might be appealing for some, while being completely off the table for others. A good way to dip your toes into the world of anal gaping would be to get comfortable with anal stretching first. Anal stretching is the build-up to gaping – it’s the act of gradually stretching your anus, allowing you to insert toys, or a penis, that you couldn’t insert before. If you’ve never inserted anything into your anus before, working up from one finger to multiple fingers is a beginner form of stretching. However, in the world of fetishism, anal gaping starts by stretching your anus above and beyond what is needed to insert an average penis for anal intercourse, and for a long time. Usually with stretching, you’re training to take on toys as large as 2.5 inches in diameter, but it can be more or less than this, depending on the person. ===COLLECTION=== Why People Gape There are plenty of reasons why people get into anal gaping. For some, the appeal comes from the body modification aspect of it. As you stretch your anus more and more, the ring of your anus will begin to look different. It can also be incredibly arousing to see how deep and wide your partner has taken you. Plenty of people like the power play dynamic of gaping, since long periods of anal sex can be viewed as quite dominating and carnal. It’s especially great for those who feel less endowed, as they can physically see how much space they occupied in their partner’s anus. Another reason people are into gaping is the fact that it’s the furthest point you can take your anal sex. Some manufacturers come up with wild, unrealistically-sized dildos, and some like the kinky idea of them. Anal gaping gives you the ability to indulge in your deepest anal fantasies with large anal toys, stretching you to your safest wide point and reaching the highest feeling of fullness. The last reason for practicing gaping is for pure pleasure, of course. Your anus is full of sensitive nerve endings, which is why safe and steady anal play can feel fantastic. As your body stretches out to larger than what is naturally comfortable, the feeling can be incredibly intense. Does It Hurt? It shouldn’t hurt if it’s done right – the most important thing to remember is that the anus isn’t self-lubricating like a vagina, so you need to make sure you have tons of lubricant on hand. The second most important thing is to ease into it slowly and consistently over time. Since gaping is an incredibly intense form of anal, you need to train your anus little by little before attempting to gape. You should also refrain from using any ‘anal ease’ cream or numbing cream of any kind. Other than the fact that it causes you to miss out on the pleasure, you could also be missing out on any potential warning signs. If things are painful to the point of needing numbing cream, you’re pushing your body past its limits and should dial it back. Anal gaping shouldn’t be painful, so if it is, make sure to stop! Like plenty of other kinks, or things that take your body to new levels, there is the risk of going too far on your road to anal gaping. Since the tissue on the inside of your anus is thinner and more sensitive than the rest of your skin, there is a danger of microtears, which is the tearing up of the tender area around your anus. This opens the risk of infection, especially since there are tons of bacteria in the anus, as well as the risk of STIs, so make sure you’re being safe, clean and careful. Another risk is the formation of hemorrhoids, which science indicates isn’t caused by anal sex itself, but by stretching the anal muscle beyond its limitations. That’s why it’s important to work your way into gaping in a patient, safe manner. To avoid going into dangerous territory, you need to be aware of the sensation as you insert anything into your anus. Be aware of sharp pains, or long-lasting soreness. It’s normal to experience some residual soreness for a day or two, especially after something as intense as anal gaping. However, if your soreness lasts longer than that, you’ve probably gone too far, and should take a break for a few days. Is Gaping Permanent? No! It should only last a few hours at most. With regards to stretching, just like most other parts of the body, it usually has a setting point which it will gradually inch back towards. So, if you’re not regularly stretching your anus, it’s possible to lose some stretch and have to work your way back into the ability to gape. This timeframe of loss in stretch can start in as little as a week, but typically takes two or three. In short, you don’t have to worry about being stretched out for life – your body’s musculature will tighten up again with time, especially if you’re regular with your Kegel exercises. Gaping isn’t giving you a bigger butthole; it’s giving you more control of the muscles of your butthole. How to Safely Stretch Your Asshole Anal gaping is one of the most extreme forms of anal play out there, so before attempting, you should experiment with tons of other anal play first. You should be comfortably aware of the sensations of anal toys and what feels comfortable inside your body. When you’re training, be aware of how your anus feels – if you feel no resistance or discomfort in insertion or play, you may be ready to size up! There’s no point in beating around the bush – anal play can bring on your urge to poop. If you want to prevent any potential mishaps, consider using an anal douche to cleanse your behind of any fecal matter. They look a bit like a dropper, and you just fill them up with warm water and sit over the toilet, while squeezing the water from the bulb into your anal tract. You can do this 3-4 hours before playtime. ===COLLECTION=== If you want to be even more immaculate or plan to go deeper than 3 or 4 inches, you should consider getting an enema to flush the rest of the matter out of your rectum. But keep in mind that you shouldn’t perform enema’s too regularly, as they can throw off your electrolyte balance, and cause dehydration and nausea. If you’re doing this alone, the easiest way to engage in anal gaping is to start by lying on your side with your knees bent so that you’re comfortable. Then, reach around to your anus to insert your finger or toy. If you’re doing it with a partner, you can either lie face down and have your partner sit or kneel next to you, or get on all fours and have your partner kneel behind you. You should ensure that your mind and muscles are as relaxed as can be. Have your partner give you a massage, share a hot bath, or engage in some fun foreplay to get in the mood. Next, a key element of your gaping session is going to be lube, and be generous with it. Do not even attempt stretching, let alone gaping without some lube on hand! Silicone-based lubes are great because of their thick consistency and durability, but if you’re using a silicone toy, make sure you use a water-based lube since silicone breaks down silicone. Once you’re relaxed, aroused and lathered in lube, work your way up from smaller objects to larger ones slowly and gradually. It may take a couple of weeks to size up, depending on how frequently you’re training. Either way, listen to your body. Once inside, use a gentle circular or thrusting motion with the toy or penis to help open the sphincters, reapplying lube if you need to take it out for any reason. Motions such as these help to mimic the feeling of your bowels being full, thus tricking the sphincters into opening up and producing a gape. After a good gaping session, wait 2-3 days before doing it again, to allow your anus an appropriate amount of time to recover – remember, gaping is a very intense sexual activity and you’ll want to make sure that you’re being safe. Best Toys for Anal Gaping The thing with toys and anal gaping is that it takes plenty of different toys to get to where you want to be. Since you’re often starting from a less stretched out place, most people need to keep sizing up with toys until you can safely gape. A toy that’s perfect to train with is a butt plug! Their narrow tips which gradually grow are ideal for giving you the comfort and safety of penetrating yourself. You should proceed slowly at first, while eventually working up to the larger point of the toy. Their typically bulb-like shape keeps them snugly secured during all sensual play, and they come in all different sizes, so you can work your way up in magnitude. If you’re on a limited budget or simply don’t want to carry a lot of toys, there are also some toys that can be used for the entire process. These will usually have a finer tip, growing into a large base, which will be quite a few times the size of the tip. Look for something with a tapered, cone-like design and a flared base for a secure grip. Every session, you’ll aim to insert this toy in a bit deeper, but you must be very careful, since it’s easy to over-insert. For that reason, you should only use this kind of toy for anal gaping if you’re in a calm and relaxed environment, with very little movement. Alternatively, if you want to keep it at one toy, you can also opt for an inflatable butt plug to give you more flexibility with your stretch. ===COLLECTION=== The most important thing to remember when choosing toys for any sort of anal play is that they should have a flared base, to ensure there’s no too-deep slippage. Next, you’ll have to figure out what size you’re able to take. To do that, measure the width of the current dildo you use comfortably for anal sex. If you don’t have one, then simply measure the width of your comfortable finger limit. Once you have that number, you should aim for a toy that’s one-quarter to a half-inch larger than your current comfortable size. You can use most kinds of anal toys to work your way into gaping, including dildos or butt plugs, but make sure to always look for a toy that has a tapered tip. Importantly, try and choose a toy that’s phthalate-free, BPA-free and made of silicone. Silicone butt toys are best designed for stretching, and are nonporous and easy to care for. How Far Can You Go? There isn’t an exact number for this – the best thing you can do is to listen to your body. The average rectum is about 5 inches long, but many can take much more than that. Final Words Whether this sounded pleasant to you or utterly terrifying, it’s important to know how to engage in safe anal play, in case you and your partner naturally edge towards gaping territory, or plan to. If you’re ready to take your anal play to the next level, make gaping your next sexual milestone!
