Strap-on. Strap off.

Post by Awkwardschoolgirl »

So, I'm looking into buying my first strap-on. Just wondering if you, the experts whom I love so very much, could give me any tips on what to look for. Things like material, price ranges (CND, if possible), etc.

What I'm thinking would be some fun is if I wore it under tight-ish pants/shorts or a skirt so there's an obvious phallic shape. And, of course, the intended use, if such an oppurtunity should arise. *crosses fingers and winks at Honor* I'm also thinking of cosplaying as Freddy, but that's only a thought, no solid decision as of yet.

Any suggestions are very much appreciated. Thankie! :D

Ever notice that Strap-on spelled backwards is No-parts?

You're in Toronto or thereabouts, right? I would try Come As You Are ( http://www.comeasyouare.com ) and see what they've got in stock. I ordered mine (which, irritatingly, hasn't arrived yet) from Babeland in the States, since CAYA was out of the one I wanted.

i'd say the only warning is that many that i've seen are definately in the realm of attatchment size that when just a dildo are meant more as coffee table ornaments, so in short, (and probably blatantly obviously) don't get anything bigger than you've enjoyed using on yourself before.

rubber panties as the base with the material going between the inner and outer prongs will suffice for mild play, if one only electrifies one, the other shouldn't get more than a tingle at low charges. but by and large, i can't imagine why one would be attempting somethign regarding electrical play if the desire to try it wasn't at least mutual.

Aren't all artificial phalluses erect, making it impossible to wear under clothing? Seems like what you want is one that can switch between flaccid and erect, if such things exist.

Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself.

It depends on the dildo. Lots of them are soft and plyable enough to bend and bulge under pants.

Yeah, they have such things, for packing and such. Not really useable sexually, but I suppose that's why you have more than one phallis.

When working at AVN, I got a chance to review a number of harnesses for strap-ons.

The most impressive one I came across (no pun intended) was one made out of patent leather. The dye from real leather can stain dildos, and the patent leather was easier to clean.

For the dildo, rubber cock is ok (hi Kwerki), but silicone is the bomb. Avoid the weird, pourous pseudoskins (they have a number of trademarked names).

Water based lube is amongst the best, I like astroglide. Avoid using silicone-based lubes (eros, platinum, milenium, velvet) with silicone dildos.

Have fun :wink:

Question.

Were you looking into a single phallus for using ON someone else, or a double -ended one...

Err... just asking for... um... census purposes.

Yes.

Census...

I didn't think too highly of dildos 'till I found this on 4chan.

Needless to say I didn't get much sleep last night :shucks:

Alright, to answer the questions:

1) Yes, I was thinking of getting one that is plyable, to wear under clothing, not a hard erect one.
2) I'm looking for one that could be used on someone else, not a double-ended one. Though if a special lady comes along, I'll prolly get us a double-ended one.

I heart you guys. :shucks:

I bought my harness from Stormy Leather, who make a variety of 'em. After some thought, I picked the Texas Two-strap. That's actually a link to the PVC version, since you can see how the straps work better in that photo. For wearing under clothes, I might consider the Stormy Harness because of the sleeker profile, but I'm not sure it'd hold the dildo secure enough for serious action. The Terra Firma gets good reviews for those who like a very firm/stiff anchor point. I've never used or seen used the Crown Harness, though it looks like it'd have the most secure strapping of all.

all the harnesses
Take a look at Lickety Split. Oh my.

Double-ended dildos tend to be...well, the ones that are bent in the middle work much better. Otherwise, the two of you end up working from kind of awkward (ha) angles.

For girl-girl action, I've always liked the flexible double-dildos. That way the girls can be in something approximating missionary, kissing each other, playing with each other's nipples, while both of them get filled.

And a girl by her lonesome can use them for double penetration.

Ehn. I always thought the flexible ones were floppy. Not quite as bad as a half-hard cock, but not very good, either. The silicone dildos are good because they have some flex, but they're not floppy. And the V or L shaped double-ended ones seem to work best.

All I know about dildos is what I've learned from consuming cyclopean quantities of porn.
