I do not think this plug is for beginners. However, a sphincter with regular training can learn quickly, so if you are new and want to pick this up with the smaller version, you could graduate quite soon. I am very submissive in the bedroom and I wear this plug for a few hours at a time and it is very comfortable to do so, but you cannot forget its there. Inserting it requires a liberal amount of KY, one can never have too much, and calm control over your sphincter muscles. It sounds wrong, but if you slightly push like you are going to the bathroom, just a little, while you are pushing the plug in, you will help to open your sphincter. Once you have the widest part in, stop pushing and allow it slide the rest of the way.

Now that its in, you can play with your partner with some spanking, non anal sex since your ass is occupied, or perhaps go grocery shopping shopping or head out to a PTA meeting carrying a naughty little grin. It feels great knowing how full you are with a dirty little taboo secret.

Removal is quick too. You or your partner can remove it easily. I like it when my husband ties me up, slowly pulls on the ring as I push, just a bit to relax the sphincter, and then since my ass is no longer occupied we have anal sex, yay! Then clean your favorite plug with soap and warm water.

Other plugs I have had were much harder than this one. This plug is a beautiful balance between soft and firm...just like a very hard cock. I really dont think it could be improved on a texture scale between hard and soft. I am very picky about odors as I get severe migraines but I cannot detect an odor with this plug at all and it cleans very well and doesnt retain too much of an odor, at least not for us as we wash it right away after use. The skin of the plug is not realistic to me, but it isnt glossy feeling or velvety, its just silicone, it doesnt heat up like a penis ir have a moveable layer of skin like a penis which is the only thing holding it back from a realistic feel. I love it still. Its obviously not real anyways...I dont make a habit of inserting real detached penises into my ass...they wouldnt stay as hard as this plug.

I think this is a great travel toy since it wont set off a metal detector if its in your bag or your ass! Its tiny too so it will fit in a purse or carry on and it doesnt require batteries so there wont be any embarassing buzzing. Average users should be able to handle this and insert it in under a minute. With its shape, it will stay inserted until you remove it which is exactly what I was looking for.

My favorite thing about this toy is that it doesnt fall out of my ass and when my husband is ready for sex he can pull it out and I require no further warm up thanks to this plug. It has helped to gently stretch my sphincter in prep for anal sex or just for bdsm play. I do wish it had a flatter base that fit more in the crack instead of a ring, but the ring is flimsy so I can still sit without being too uncomfortable.

We store this plug in our night stand with all our other toys. To clean it, we scrub it with soap and hot or warm water. Sometimes we clean it in the sink, sometimes in the shower if thats where we are removing it. Its super easy!

The packaging was really not worth keeping. The shipping box we let our kids play with and turn into a ferret fort, but the actual packaging did nothing but fall into our recyclables.

This has quickly become our favorite toy. We are very into BDSM play and this is used nearly every session. Having something in your ass is definitely submissive and my husband loves knowing that he has inserted a plug into his wifes ass and at any time he can remove it and have his way with that ass, or not...sometimes its just the plug and that power alone is fun.

The longest I have worn this plug is about 4 hours, but I am working on longer. I love being dominated in sex and love love LOVE it when the plug is removed for sex and then put back in. This is the perfect plug for me and my husband.
