Strap on Sex: The Hardware
Thursday, November 19th, 2009Are you and your mate getting bored in the bedroom? Is your routine getting a little too routine? Do you simply want to try something new in the sack? Strap on sex is here to save the day!
Whether you are a lady who holds a strict girls only policy, a boy lovin’ babe or somewhere in between (some may call us selfish), strap on sex is a sure way to put the jolt back in anyone’s cola of kink.
We have plenty of harnesses, strap on dildos and all in one kits for you to choose from. Let’s chat about them, shall we?
Harnesses, you say?
The harness is the apparatus that you wear in which the dildo is attached to. It connects you to the fun. There are various styles:
G-string/ 2 strap – One strap around the waist, one between the legs
- Less secure than other types; sagging of the dildo tends to occur, the dildo may flop, in turn you will have less control.
- Straps may rub in between the cheeks and may be irritating.
Bikini/panty- exactly what it sounds like
- Some come in the form of shorts
- Less secure, less control and flopage has been known to occur with this variety
- Some find these to be more comfortable then the G-string style harnesses.
Three strap – one strap around the waist, 2 thigh straps: each strap comes from the crotch and wraps around each thigh.
- Very secure and gives you maximum control of your newest member!
Like most things in life, there is some variation within these harness types. Some even vibrate! What is awesome about all strap on harnesses? There is a chance that the wearer will also get a pleasurable sensation from them! That’s right, while the strap on-er is giving it to the strap on-ee, there will be a little movement and the friction from the harness will put a tingle in just the right spot.
When it comes to choosing the right one for you, you must decide which would be most comfortable and how much control you want to have over your fun new appendage.
How do you attach the dildo to the harness? The most common is the o-ring style attachment. Once the dildo is in place, the ring secures the dildo’s flared base to the harness. The o-ring must be larger than your dildo. If the ring is too small for your dong, it won’t fit and then everyone is just sad. Keep this in mind and try to purchase a harness that allows you to change the o-rings so you can use different sized dildos.
Can’t I just use any old dildo during strap on sex?
No, but you can use a lot of them. Strap on dildos must have a flared base or set of balls. Got it? Some dildos are made with strap on harness compatibility in mind. Both Tantus and Vixen Creations make lots of fabulous silicone dildos that are perfect for steamy hot strap on sex.
Strap on Kits come with the harness and compatible dildo all in one! No need to play the strap on dildo-harness match game. It has been done for you! Some even come with multiple o-rings so you can change out your dildos.
What about those Vac-U-Lock contraptions? Doc Johnson has patented a system in which the hollow end of the dildo locks on to the “attachment plug” protruding from the harness. Only Vac-U-Lock dildos are compatible with Vac-U-Lock harnesses and vice versa.
Have fun choosing your tools of choice. Think about the right size, what type of harness you would be most comfortable in and so on. Strap on sex is fun, but if the equipment isn’t right you won’t get the most out of your play time.
