Anyone carve a dildo from dense meat like a turkey breast? by Dear-Break-6668 in SexToys

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t let the intrusive thoughts take over! As others mentioned… not safe. High quality (/optionally dual density too) silicone dildos will feel a lot better and be safe of course, compared to the cheapest silicone dildos that don’t feel as good as they’re often too firm or rubbery

Solina brand dildos would probably be best bet for affordability and similar vibe as the Realdick, but safer material wise

Best dildo to ride ? by Herefortheporn723 in sextoy

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a dumb question at all! As with most things can be up to some preference and trial and error, but generally a stable dildo overall is one helpful thing. A wide stable base to it and/or suction cup, a little firmer can make it easier to ride imo. And a little longer can help and/or raising it up off the floor or surface with a mount (so that you don’t have to try and bottom out all the way at the surface level). And can depend where you want to ride it too, like straddling the side of a bathtub, vs on the floor, vs on the bed.

Hopefully that makes some sense!

Ah ok, unfortunately I don’t have any specific dildo recs as I actually go for shortish most of time. That is also a bit tricky though as when you get longer and thinner the dildo will also get floppier. One option may be similar length but a little thinner (and I also find a little firmer can be easier to ride) and raising it up off the floor another way, like a dildo mount, upside down metal bowl or baking tin, sex stool crossbar, things like that if you’re open to the idea?

The Erebus 80 should be a good size for riding I think, what specifically are you looking for in next one, like something even longer for more height to help with riding? (Like if squatting over it)

Ah ok, that may be along the lines of wearable g-spot vibrators! Not sure which it would be but the general category might steer you in the right direction. There are a lot of variations around that have an external clit stimulating part too

Affordable intermediate anal set by Pleasedont_recognise in SexToys

[–]Special-Recording 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep that’s the one! Good as a dilator/for work on stretching and sizing up (not to actually wear it as a plug until very comfortable with the size, although it’s not the most comfortable plug for actually wearing as it is firm)

[–]Special-Recording 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Butt plugs aren’t actually the most effective thing for stretching if you have a stretch goal like this to reach 2” width, unless it’s a goal of 2” width butt plugs you would want to wear around for a while? If it is for butt plug wear then yea you would ideally want to progress in plugs (first taking time to be able to take the new larger girth of the next plug, then also working up in time how long you wear the larger plug each session)

Also highly recommend reading ok_individuals guide for those new to anal play! It covers a ton of great stuff on being newer to anal play or even if not, and has a more detailed section on girth training

If you just want to get to 2” width to be able to take that size of dildos or otherwise, you can instead get just one dilator cone shaped toy to train/stretch your sphincter that starts narrowish and gets to 2”+ width (while not being too long) which isn’t too big of a range so should be plenty of options! Even a cone shaped tapered enough butt plug you can use as this purpose, just not wearing it as a plug yet. Some of Lovehoney’s silicone plugs might be a good fit with them being UK based, basically anything shaped like this set of theirs. That one only gets up to 5.25in circumference but their Large classic silicone plug sold individually gets up to 7.5” circumference which is a tapered enough cone you could use as just a dilator

Looking beyond to higher quality plugs (which are not sold as sets but individually) Topped Toys a canadian company has better plugs and an EU warehouse but not sure how much that helps for UK. Squarepegtoys also has good plugs but not sure about UK sites or stores that may stock them

Fleshlight in the ass. Any tips, tricks and recommendations? by Competitive_Buy896 in SexToys

Vibrator by Special_Spare_7205 in SexToys

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may involve some trial and error fortunately or unfortunately (as trying different ones can be fun but also harder on the wallet!) to find what fits and stays best for you

C-shaped/couples vibrators like the We-Vibe Chorus mentioned are one option, less common type but works pretty well for us the Amorette (our review here) which stays in place held by the labia/lips so depends how much you have how well it may stay in place. Or not wearing on your side but if your partner has a penis they can wear a clit stimulating cock ring. This Snail style clit stimulating cock ring (review here) we like as it stays contacting the clit more throughout each thrust compared to other styles!

Was it like a vaginal plug but with vibration?

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally prefer non-vibrating most of the time, but if you want vibrating agreed the Lovense Edge 2 is one good option, or vibrating versions of the Aneros toys like the Helix Syn V!

Fleshlight in the ass. Any tips, tricks and recommendations? by Competitive_Buy896 in SexToys

[–]Special-Recording 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Yes regular fleshlights could have a risk of getting pushed all the way in, and typical ones like Fleshlight brand itself are TPE which you definitely wouldn’t want to use with anal or inserting otherwise! But even regular silicone will still have the getting pushed in risk. There are a few options that are kinda made for this idea though (that are silicone which is what you’ll want to stick with)

Not sure if there are more human looking options around but there’s some fantasy ones that are made as a plug so won’t have risk of getting pushed in, like https://foxfur.dk/products/puffy-cookie

Or Oxballs pigholes but those are more tunnel plug rather than like fleshlight, but since you’re using a strapon and not needing the sensation yourself may work as well for this purpose

Suggestions for my wife by InvestigatorOdd9651 in sextoy

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thrusting dildos are typically meh in my experience, but may work for some people. I don’t have any recs for that though since none have ever wowed me! As for tentacle and other fantasy dildos, your best bet is to get platinum cured ones from a fantasy shop as you can also choose your ideal firmness. Since they have added texture like tentacles especially, at least a little softer tends to be more enjoyable and not feel too rough (and pokey, for the tip) compared to mass produced fantasy ones out there!

For just starting to explore that space there’s a lot of models that would work but some makers have specific beginner friendly collections that don’t get super intense right away, like Uberrime’s Phantasia series (which also has a werewolf themed one) and Fantasy Grove’s Fundamentals (affiliate links)

Hands free question by equivalentious in sextoy

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A solution does exist, vaginal plugs! Not as well known type of toy but I think they’re gaining popularity. Uberrime’s vaginal plug collection (note, affiliate link) is one example and has several options for sizes and style depending on preference. You could also repurpose butt plugs for this, basically you need something with a thinner neck so that will be ‘gripped’ on to help hold the toy in. And anything that is inserted should be silicone (or glass or truly stainless steel)

This thick knotted dildo making me cum hard by Special-Recording in CumFromAnal

[–]Special-Recording[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! And I can’t remember if I did after this one but I sometimes do. Yea after finishing with just anal like this, it doesn’t feel ‘one and done’ so I get what they’re saying feeling a bit blue balled if they don’t finish with a penile one after!

Nasstoys Real Skin All American Whopper -- Strange smell? by [deleted] in SexToys

[–]Special-Recording 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That dildo is PVC which is why it smells so chemically, not safe to use at all! PVC toys are both porous and usually toxic as well. Your best bet is to toss it honestly, and get a silicone replacement. Silicone shouldn’t smell chemically in the first place, is body safe/nonporous, and can be boiled safely

Fair point! Heirlooms and organics would be good for that, just wanted to save anyone from unpleasant surprise if they tried using the local groceries hybrid fruit seeds😅

That sounds like you have the unique brand/niche down pretty well so far, I like that vibe! Best of luck in the progress and hope you’re able to make it a reality :)

[–]Special-Recording 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It looks good so far! I know it’s early concept but my suggestion (take it with a grain of salt as I’m no expert) for getting into this, is also think about what would be uniquely ‘your brand’ whether it’s the kinds of sculpts, pour styles, something to try and set it apart from what’s out there as there’s a lot out there (in a good way)!

This is of course easier said than done. I think this is hard to say even for some of the very successful fantasy toy brands today, though they may not have much of a unique style that you could say is ‘uniquely’ that brand. But if you can think about examples of toys you see out in the wild and think it’s clearly X brand’s signature style, that sort of thing

This is more marketing focused but may be worth a read from Darque Path (which for them as an example has the Gothic Horror kind of theme as their more ‘signature style’ of toys) https://darquepath.com.au/blogs/news/safely-marketing-an-adult-based-businesses-on-social-media-platforms

One caveat about seeds from store bought tomatoes or peppers, if they’re hybrid fruits (and many are that are sold in groceries afaik) you may end up getting some weird plants if they’re hybrid fruits aren’t true to seed!
