    So, what is a Fleshlight?

    Jenna Haze (Forbidden)

    For the guy who indulges in male masturbation tools to simulate the feeling of being inside a woman’s vagina, the Fleshlight has been around for ages. But for the average guy on the street who fancies his hand more than anything else, you’d probably be thinking it lights up a dark room. Well, you’re almost right, the exterior casing resembles that of, you guessed it, an actual flashlight with a cap at the end that allows you to vary the amount of pressure you feel while being inside.

    Made of medical and food grade, phthalate-free polymers, the Fleshlight’s insert is soft to touch and feels almost like real skin. Couple the experience with enough lube and it’s probably the closest feeling you’d get to being inside a woman. With multiple designs and textures within the “tunnel”, you’re always spoilt for choice and when you get bored, a simple switch of the insert is all you need. Did I mention that the Fleshlight is also super simple to clean and maintain?

    Designed and marketed by Interactive Life Forms, Fleshlight has been around since 1998. Steve Shubin, the genius behind the Fleshlight was awarded the patent for a “device for discreet sperm collection”.  Since then, Fleshlight has sold more than 6 million pieces worldwide and has expanded their product range to include a whole variety of pleasure products.

  • How safe are my Toys?

    How safe are my Toys?

    A recent scare in Sweden prompted an investigation on sex toys after some were known to contain a toxic chemical called Phthalates.  There have been many reported cases in recent years of children’s toys containing dangerous chemicals especially those produced in China.  As China is the major exporter of sex toys, producing 70 percent for the world’s market, how are we certain that the materials used are safe for us to put into our bodies?  If you are thinking of purchasing a toy or already own one, here are 5 tips you should follow for your safety.

    Tip 1 – Buy “Phthalate-free” toys

    Phthalates are a chemical used to make plastics more flexible and softer.  They are banned in children’s toys but can be found in nail polish, adhesives, paint pigments and sealants.  The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifies Phthalates as a possible human carcinogen (cancer causing).  Other studies have also linked Phthalates to infertility, reproductive issues, kidney and liver damage.  A Greenpeace-TNO reported that seven out of eight sex toys contained more than one Phthalates in varying concentrations from 24 to 49 percent.

    As no safety regulations currently exist for sex toys, packaging with “Phthalate-free” claims are unverified and might also be false.  Nonetheless, looking out for it is a good place to begin.

    Tip 2 –  Do not buy soft toys that bend

    Sex toys that are soft and bend easily are most likely to contain Phthalates.  This check is particularly important especially if the packaging does not mention the materials used in producing the toy.

    Tip 3 – Smell it

    If the sex toy smells “rubbery”, unpleasant or similar to that of a “new car”, take it as a warning sign.

    Tip 4 – Look for harder sex toys

    To reduce the risk of exposure to Phthalates in your sex toys, buy toys that are made from silicon, Pyrex glass or stainless steel.  Not only are these toys plastic free, they are also non-porous.  Non-porous toys have a smooth and impermeable surface that does not have any tiny nooks for bacteria to hide in.

    Tip 5 – Look out for quality through the branding

    As 70 percent of the world’s sex toys are made in China, chances are the one which you are thinking of buying or already own comes from there.  Beware of toys that are not of a household brand and are sold cheaply due to the low quality of materials used in manufacturing.  Brands such as Lelo, OhMiBod, We-Vibe, JimmyJane, Nexus, B Swish, Fleshlight ensure a high level quality standard for their products.  Your sex toy is going to give you all the fun you can get.  Do not put your health at risk as a result of buying a toy just because it is cheap.  Quality products are safer, last for years and leaves you stress-free to fully enjoy them.

    Be Informed

    Now that you have gone through our 5 buying tips, be sure to do your homework by reading up on the sex toy you are considering buying.  This allows you to shop at ease to protect your body and your money.

  • Condom Tips

    Condom Tips

    When it comes to sex, everyone wants to have the best time of their lives.  Hence, it is better to be safe than sorry.  Condoms are one of the best contraceptive options (99% effective) that can prevent unwanted pregnancies and STIs including HIV.

    Below is a four step method to follow in ensuring proper use of a condom during sex.

    Step 1

    A condom must be put on first before coming into contact with the vagina, anus or mouth of the partner.  Carefully open the wrapper from the jagged edges and take out the condom.  Never rip it open or use your teeth as this might cause the condom to tear.

    Step 2

    Place the condom with the tip pointing upwards on top of the penis.  Check that the condom is in the right direction so that it can be rolled downwards.  Squeeze the entire reservoir tip of the condom gently (to remove the air) and roll it down the shaft of the erect penis.

    Note that you have put it on backwards, throw it away and use a new one as the pre-cum will have already come into contact with the condom and flipping it over may cause pregnancy.

    For men who are uncircumcised, make sure you pull back the foreskin before putting on the condom.

    Step 3

    Apply lubricant over the condom if necessary.  This helps to protect the condom from damages and also ensures smooth entry into the vagina.  Some lubricants also contain spermicides which can help to reduce any risk of pregnancy.

    Remember never to apply oil-based lubricants as they can cause the condom to breakdown.  Always use water-based lubricants.

    Step 4

    After ejaculation during sex, hold the condom at the base of the penis and withdraw it from the vagina.  This is to ensure that the condom is not left inside the vagina of the lady.  To remove the condom, hold the base and gently roll it off.  Tie it up, wrap it in tissue paper and dispose into a waste bin.

    Extra tips for a more enjoyable experience

    • Ensure that the condoms are kept in a cool dry place.  Heat and sunlight can cause the latex to break so do not leave the condoms in a car or in a wallet.
    • Check the condom for its expiry before usage.  Throw away any condoms past their expiry date.
    • During sex, check occasionally for any tears on the condom or if it has slipped off the penis and dislodged in the vagina.
    • Applying lubricant into the tip of the condom before putting it on helps to avoid breakage and enhances the pleasure for men.
    • Replace condoms if switching from vaginal to anal sex or vice versa.  This reduces the risk of infection.
    • Practice wearing a condom if you have never done so before.  Condoms are easy to use with practice and experience.

  • Ins and Outs of Vibrators

    Ins and Outs of Vibrators

    2013. We’re surrounded by dozens of different vibrators in all shapes and sizes to choose from. For the uninformed, it’s a nightmare.  However, it’s no surprise that this seemingly simple invention used to cure women’s hysteria in the 1800s has managed to become the sex toy of choice for a third of women today.

    Amidst the multiple variations, the two common things all vibrators contain…a battery and a motor. It’s also pretty standard to have multiple program options and intensities. Simply perfect for experimenting.

    CLASSIC

    Often mistaken for “massagers” grandma uses to ease those aching backs, the classics are simple, discreet and can be easily purchased in most departmental stores. The most common of which is the Magic Wand made famous by all the AV movies you watched as a kid. Its sole purpose is for clitoral stimulation and because of it’s design the Magic Wand is significantly more powerful than most other vibrators on the market.

    DILDOS

    Dildo shaped vibrators have dual purposes, they are meant to simulate the actual experience of sex. The phallus-shaped toy is often modeled after the penis with some even molded from actual porn stars with lengths of up to 16” and 7” around. The penis shape allows for vaginal penetration, which the vibration action helps to enhance the sexual pleasure. They can also be used anally although significantly more lubricant is often required

    G-SPOT

    Since Ernst Gräfenberg discovered the G-Spot it’s been the “Holy Grail” of the female orgasm. G-Spot vibrators are dildo shaped vibrators with a specially designed curved shape to stimulate the G-Spot in women and prostate in men. For some women, it’s really the only way they get to cum.

    RABBITS

    The world renowned Jack Rabbit was popularised by Sex and the City in the 90’s, invented by Ann Summers it became the company’s cash cow for years to come. The rabbit is designed to stimulate both the vagina and clitoris simultaneously. It feature two vibrators one dildo shaped to penetrate the vagina and the second, its namesake is a clitoral stimulator shaped like rabbit ears to target the sweet spot.

    BULLETS AND EGGS

    Relatively small and unobtrusive, bullets and eggs are the perfect companion to take on the go. Due to its small size, it’s normally minimalist with few added programs and function exactly like the classics. Predominately used for clitoral play there are some larger ones which can also be inserted into most openings.

    ALARM CLOCKS

    Needless to say this is the perfect way for any woman to wake up short of having her partner between her legs.  Alarm clock vibes are worn on panties during the night. They are exceptionally thin and shaped to the curves of the female body so you don’t notice it at all. They work great as they’ll wake you up feeling so good that snoozing would become a thing of the past.

    BUTTERFLIES

    The butterfly is a pretty interesting style of vibrator. It’s obviously shaped like a butterfly and is worn like a pair of panties and targets the clitoris. As it’s strapped on, operation is completely hands-free and often it comes with a remote control for added fun.

    REMOTES

    With the introduction of the Internet, long distance relationships got much shorter and sooner or later, someone would come along to bridge the gap between lovers.  Remote controlled sex toys from firms such as the Vibease and Remote Pleasure have burst onto the market. Partners across the globe can now using smartphone apps can be directing the orgasm distances away.

    COUPLES

    Previously vibrating cock rings were the only thing couples could use together but the We-Vibe couples’ vibrator changed all that when it was launched. A flexible U-shaped toy worn inside the vagina during sex has not one but two vibrating motors, one for the G-Spot and another for the Clitoris. It’s unique shape and design allows the man to penetrate the woman while she adorns this magnificent piece human ingenuity. The things we think of to have better sex.

    In our opinion, all vibrators are really just meant to help us get off. But with so many different styles to choose from, these days we’re really spoilt for choice. Imagine if we only had that one steam powered design.
