I am a male and I would recommend to try a toy whether it's a Fleshlight or something else if you haven't before. It can change the game totally especially during the time before orgasm but there is potential to stronger orgasms also.
I do powder my sleeves maybe once or two times per year if I know that there will be a bit longer period when I do not use them due to not being at home. It definitely gives them that silky smooth feeling but it disappears right after washing so it basically feels quite pointless most of the time.
How do you think about powdering and what kind of time period is your approach if you do it? When I do I use just regular corn starch.
Mine is up for sure and it's going to soon feel good sliding into lubed Fleshlight. Clothes fully off so all parts are free from distractions and the warm summer weather is felt even inside the apartment so what better way to relax now. Hopefully your session is even better than the last one!
I have tried one other popular stroker brand and one product consisting of vibrating bullets + their holder sleeve attached to penis. Fleshlight has been the best as far as how the material feels and how the session progresses. Also the overall design of the product. An important variable for me is the ability to mount although lately I have started to growingly appreciate FL stroking sessions but these are obviously great for mounting.
Only area where Fleshlight would not win is ease of cleaning and drying but I actually still consider Fleshlight cleaning quite easy. Drying similarly with the Air accessory especially for complex sleeve textures. Just a bit more effort required but I guess maintenance is still very handy compared to what it most likely would be with those bigger hip products as fun as they could be to actually use.
So overally FL has been a good balance of pleasure and maintainability. Has it been the best brand also for you regarding the quality of masturbation or overally owning the product if you have tried multiple brands?
I have tried Fleshlights, Tenga Flip Zero, Tenga Eggs and Trinity Vibes which consists of a sleeve attached to penis and vibrating bullets then attached to that. All good experiences except Tenga Eggs were maybe not that good but ok for their price. I currently only have Fleshlights and I like the feel of material, overall quality and the ability to easily attach them to mounts.
What kind of toys have you tried?
Nothing but free time left for the rest of day. Planning on getting completely naked and picking a lube bottle and Fleshlight but still teasing this feeling for some time before starting a slow session. Going to fully enjoy each slide going in and out. How is it going for you?
My selection for the majority of sessions has been thrusting as I even have two different mounts and of course it's awesome. But with a slow stroking session there is possibility to last much longer basically fully deciding when it's time to cum and there is much better concentration to feeling those sleeve details. It's almost like a neverending great cup of coffee but a lot more pleasurable, haha! I just kind of have to remind myself about that but maybe I should just start to knowingly select that more often.
I mean those noises of the actual penetration and not suction cap turns or other possible noises produced by the case, haha. I think in some level they add positively to the experience especially with porn-free flying but I also understand that with shared living circumstances the preference might be as quiet as possible.
Quite often I see posts where an order of multiple Fleshlights is being prepared or multiple ones have been received. Any others who buy only one at a time? I am definitely not saying that there is right or wrong way to buy and of course everyone is allowed to do as it feels the best.
I am just the type of a person that wouldn't appreciate too much at once. Kind of like how good candies do not technically stop tasting good but still you can only eat a spesific amount during one day without it being too much. Or how the world is full of good music but you can only get familiar with a spesific amount of new music in a short timeframe. I think there has been roughly half year timeframe between purchases. But then again I only have four Fleshlights so I am not the best one to talk about buying and collecting, haha.
What kind of thoughts do you have about buying?
I think it was year 2009 when I got the original model but only had it for maybe a couple of months until I got embarrassed and threw it to thrash.
Then I guess it was maybe 2013 when I got STU and had it for a bit longer time but I think it was mostly maintenance or otherwise getting bored that I threw that away too. And maybe in 2022 or close to that I had a Quickshot for a while thinking it's a good compromise with superior cleaning/drying but ended up thinking it does not feel as good as a full size sleeve.
In 2024 bought first FLG and now I have four of them. It's good to use them because it feels significantly better compared to the traditional five finger grip, should be healthier and one of the best parts is to cum freely with the full size sleeve length. And mounts also add a lot to the fun! Also cleaning + drying is quite simple process requiring little energy.
Have some of you also restarted after quitting at some point for some reason?
Do you mostly prefer to mount your FL when using it or do you tend to choose other styles? I almost always choose mounting. Let's also include homemade options like between mattress and bed frame so doesn't have to be an actual mount to count.
Interesting question that I started to think. Personally I have stopped buying after four but I do have those four sleeves + cases and actually four accessories also (Air, Hang Dry and two mounts) so maybe it wouldn't be totally wrong to kind of categorize as one. But maybe it's more just enhanced masturbation for me although it's the standard style now.
However I see a lot of active collectors in the sub so I think maybe at least some of you consider it as a hobby?
