Advice for a New Dildo User

I was recently given a dildo by a friend as I kept complaining about my lack of sex. Now I’m alone in the house, everyone out working or getting educated, I thought I’d try it out. So I lubed up and got playing with myself. After I orgasmed, thus I thought fully relaxed, I applied more lube to the dildo before trying to use it. No matter how, what angle or position it hurt as I started to penetrate me. I’ll admit towards the end I was getting tense so it would have been even more painful.

So I was kind of wondering, what advice would you give to a first time dildo user?

My best advice for a new dildo user (male or female) is to just take it really slow.
Make sure everything is well lubricated and that you’re well turned on (which it sounds like you did take care of).

It’s also important to start out with a smaller dildo.
It may be that the one you’re trying is just too big for you right now; it might be better to start with something smaller and move up to thicker toys as you feel ready.

A thick dildo might not be as comfortable as a thinner one for now, especially if you’re feeling a littler nervous about using it, but eventually you can work your way up to something thicker as you get more used to what your body likes/needs/wants, and your body gets more used to how you want to play with it. ^_^

Five Years of The S Spot!

Go on, have a bite of cake!

Wow, can you believe The S Spot has been kicking around the internet for 5 whole years already?
That kinda blows my mind a little.
^_~

In those five years, this site has grown in popularity (by a lot),
seen multiple re-designs (this is my fave so far, don’t you agree?),
and even moved to it’s own domain (theSspot.org, obvi)!

Deeper than aesthetics, even my writing has changed over time – just take a spin through my archives if you want to see what I mean.

Still, despite the changes, I’ve prided myself on being able to keep you, my loyal readers, up to date with informative Toy Reviews, I’ve answered your Reader Questions, I’ve kept you stocked with sexy CBW pics, and even found time to post a few other hot bonuses.
^_~

But none of this really could have happened without YOU being here to support me with your readership, your comments, and maybe even a CBW pic or two.

So to thank YOU and in honour of The S Spot’s 5th Anniversary, the nice people over at Lelo and I are teaming up to bring you a contest!

Here’s how you enter:

1. Take a photo of yourself following one of three themes:
a) Dress as your fave S Spot post! (you may want to browse through my archives for some ideas) or
b)Write The S Spot somewhere (preferably sexy) on your body! or
c)Get The S Spot a cake and snap some photos of you enjoying it with some part of your body!

2. E-mail that pic to me [the.s.spot@gmail.com]

It’s just that simple!

(Some rules though – as usual, all entrants must be at least 18yrs of age and all photos must be consensual.)

The Winner will be granted the honour of being deemed awesome (a pretty good prize in itself)
AND
will have their choice of one of the luxury sex toys that Lelo offers in the Femme and Homme sections of their website!

So, what are you waiting for? Go get your camera and send me your entry!  ^_^
You have until March 31st at Noon!

Thanks for Five Fantastic Years!

Toy Review - Patina

I was a little trepidatious when I saw the new arrival from my friends at CalExotics because I didn’t really like the last rabbit-type vibe that I tried as much as some of other styles of vibes I’ve had.  But, since Patina looks much cuter, I decided to give it a chance to prove itself.

The Patina is made of medical-grade silicone and takes three AAA batteries.  It’s about 12cm long and, as you can see from the pic above, it has a shafty part and a rabbit-style clit stim.  The controller part has three buttons: one to turn it on and off, one to move through the vibration programs (there’s 7!) and one to control the rotation in the shafty part (there’s 3 speeds!). 

[Just a little warning here, if your batteries aren't strong enough, pressing the rotation button just turns the whole thing off - which I found confusing, until it occurred to me that one of my batteries might have been a dud and I switched it out.]

The Patina is waterproof too, which means you can take it in the tub and don’t have to worry about cleaning it under the tap (as long as the battery hatch is closed correctly).

What I liked:  I liked the size of the shafty part; I think because it’s not as thick as some other rabbit-type vibes, the rotation worked out a lot better.   I really liked the rabbit-style clit stim (of course) and enjoyed all the vibration programs; there’s something about how this clit stim is designed that is just really nice, because the vibrations are accentuated by the little ears.

What I Didn’t like:  Nothing too serious here, though I didn’t find that the rotation of the shaft did a whole lot for me – but I could definitely feel it and it wasn’t like it was uncomfortable, so I guess that kind of rotation just isn’t right for my body’s design.

This Toy Would be Great for: someone who likes having something inside while they stimulate their clit – you can enjoy the sensation of fullness while the clit stim works it’s magic.  Plus you can bring it in the tub!

The Patina has restored my faith in Rabbit-Style Vibes, it gets a 7.5 out of 10!

Cockblogging Wednesday 178

Well hey there!
Welcome back to CockBlogging.
Now don’t worry, those leftover pics I have for Cuntblogging are still in queue to show up on the site.
Cuntblogging isn’t only restricted to Feb I’ll have you know!
I’ll post one any time someone is willing to send in a pic!

But for this week, we have this nice gentleman’s photo.
I usually end up covering CBW pics with either something that the pic or the message reminds me of, OR something related to what’s happening in my real life – like a Jersey Shore party this weekend (which will require lip gloss).
You’ll see when you click through why I had to use TWO tubes of gloss
^_~

Hey Shay. Love your site if you can’t tell. I really enjoy the female CBW and thought it only fair to contribute. I hope it’s good enough to make the site!

~*~
Psst:
Warm up your digital cameras folks – I have something special coming up that you’re going to want to be ready for!

Editor’s Pick

  • Njoy Pure Plug Medium by Saraid
  • The base is probably the greatest thing in the universe. The neck is thin and long, so your plug won’t fall out due to the weight and the handle. . oh the handle The handle is something out of this world.

On to the reviews…

Product Review - 2040

Just a disclaimer before you read this review: I’m a harsh judge of porn – I’m really really picky about what I want to see and what I don’t want to see.  Still, when when my friends at Babeland asked me if I wanted to review this new big-budget porn that was chock full of stars and poised to win awards, I thought I’d give 2040 a chance to impress me.

So, I recruited a straight guy friend to watch it with me (to provide a guy’s perspective for you) and we popped it in (the DVD not… you know… ^_~) to have a look.

What we liked:  The nice thing about watching a big budget porn is the attention to detail; the sets were nice, the costumes were good, and everything looked great.   Alektra Blue played a fantastic android (all joking aside about porn actresses’ ability), I was extremely impressed with how well she stayed in character.  However, for me, personally, Kristen Price stole the show a little – her character was just so damn spicy, and hot in her techie costume (esp the one they show her in on the cover).  I also enjoyed the details that were added for the story – like the “director” instructing Randy Spears’ character to ejaculate in the sex android’s removable oral cavity, and the discussion about Alektra’s character’s self cleaning vagina.  haha

What we didn’t like: It’s the same complaint I have about most mainstream porn – the sex is too repetitive and I get bored.  Especially with all the oral; I don’t know what it is, but watching blowjob after blowjob bores me to death.  My male friend even agrees with me here – there is too much time spent on bjs and he not only finds it boring, but doesn’t particularly enjoy looking at another man’s cock for so long.  But hey, that’s just us.  Oh, I also find Randy Spears a little creepy – though he DID play his role well.

Also, I couldn’t decide if this was bad or not – but 2040 is a REALLY long movie and the plot kinda drags by the end.  I’m wondering if maybe you’re not meant to watch it all in one sitting.

Final Verdict:  This porn was pretty to look at and the plot was carried out fairly well, but we still found it a little boring.   However, as I said above – we are quite picky.

2040 gets a 6 out of 10

Cuntblogging Wednesday 46

Wow, my readers with vaginas really came through this year for Feb’s celebration!
I’ve received quite a few gorgeous photos over the past few weeks – more even than I could use this month (but not to worry, you WILL get to see them all eventually ^_~ I’d never let them go to waste!)

Today’s submitter made it really tough to choose just one of the super cool pictures she sent in, and below you’ll see my fave (click through to get rid of one of the mirrors):

Hi Shay, you said “grab a mirror and check out your own pretty pussy” – I did, and took some photos with “mirror effects”.
I hope you and your readers appreciate.

Painful Penetration

Hey Shay, i’m still a virgin, but recently my boyfriend and I are trying to have sex.
The first time he tried to penetrate was painful but i was sort of expecting that. But now it’s been a few weeks, and we have tried several times but the pain is too much for me to bear. And in my head i’m thinking that he is too big, so in my own time i’m trying to get ‘accustomed’ to a larger size. However, while trying it out on myself with something that really isnt much thicker or bigger than he is, i’ve realised that the pain isn’t actually my hymen as the pain is from the top of the vagina opening not the bottom. Should i be worried? Or is it all in my head? Because to be honest, i do doubt that its my hymen thats causing the problem. If you can help that would be great! And i’m sorry if this type of question has been posted before… i’m new to your blog and very impressed by it (not to mention learning alot too). Thanks Shay :)

I think your instincts are correct, it probably isn’t your hymen that’s bothering you.  There is a bone in your pubic area and some cartilage at the top of your vagina, so that could be what you’re hitting.  I’ve had similar trouble if I don’t take the time to get properly warmed up before I test out some of the thicker toys I’ve reviewed.  Usually if you take the time to get really relaxed and turned on, things become more flexible and you should have less trouble/pain.

Check out some of my posts for first timers HERE because there might be some other useful advice for you there as well. ^_^

I hope that helps.  If you do keep finding sex painful after a few more attempts, you could try asking your doctor/gynecologist to see if they have any other ideas for you.

Toy Review - Lindsay the Sex Doll


When my friend at The Adult Toy Shoppe asked me to pick something to review from his site, I half jokingly told him to send me a sex doll, since I’ve never really seen one in person and I thought it would be hilarious/awesome.  Turns out he thought it would be pretty cool too, because he decided to send me Lindsay the “Fully Loaded” Love Doll.

As you can see from the photo, when we pulled Lindsay out of the box we found that the actual doll doesn’t look quite like the picture on the box – but that’s pretty much to be expected from this kind of product.

Since I don’t have a hand pump, we had to blow her up by mouth – her valve has a auto stopper which is good because it means that you won’t lose the air you’ve just blown in, but bad because you have to squeeze the valve to get air in and the air flows in more slowly – which is a pain.  But in the end, she didn’t take too long to blow up (not nearly as bad as the bondage chair).

Once we had her blown up, we were a little more impressed with her.  She’s around 5 feet tall (I was just a few inches taller) and has three orifices that we proceeded to inspect.  All three orifices are pretty much untextured plastic sleeves bonded to the openings at the mouth, vag, and ass, and fixed inside.  I expected the sleeves to be kinda loose and lame, but once she was full of air, the air pressure made the “love tubes” pretty tight and actually more vagina-like than a lot of masturbation sleeves.

So, with the doll blown up and inspected, all that was left was for my strapping assistant to take her for a “test drive”.

What We Liked: He was very impressed with the feel of the sleeve; he’s tested some masturbation sleeves for me before and he said that he was surprised by how much better the doll was in a lot of ways.   We were also pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to clean her out when we were done; just deflate her a bit and run the orifice you used under the tap (we used a water-based lube and he didn’t finish inside her – all for easier clean up).

What We Didn’t Like: The seam around the edge of the opening wasn’t sharp, but it wasn’t smooth either – so he reported that it wasn’t quite irritating, but definitely detracted from the experience.  Also, the one way that the doll couldn’t beat a masturbation sleeve was because you couldn’t tighten the doll like you can tighten your grip on a sleeve (at least, not without stopping to inflate her a little more).  I guess the main disadvantage of any blow up sex doll is that you either have to have room to store it inflated or re-inflate it any time you want to use it and deflate it when you’re done, which could be tedious.

This Toy Would be Great for:  anyone looking for something a little different in the way of masturbation sleeves, especially if you have room to stash the doll in a closet or under your bed.  This could also be a funny way to play around with the idea of having a threesome if you’re in a couple.   Or you could bring it to an orgy – she’s a little small, so you might get a little closer to your guy friends than you normally like – but you can totally DP or even TP (Triple Penetrate) her and she won’t mind one little bit.

Fully Loaded Lindsay speeds her way to a 7 out of 10 for feel, but loses a point of lack of convenience for use – leaving her with a 6 out of 10 overall:
