The Bootie is small, but that isn't such a terrible thing. I was surprised by the size of the Bootie when it first arrived. After all, I am not known for my ability to look at the properties of an object and be able to visualize it correctly. However, I wasn't terribly disappointed in diminutive appearance. In fact, it put me at ease.

My goal for this toy was simple. I was looking for a plug that could be worn comfortably for longer periods of time. I wanted a smaller, flexible base that would sit between my cheeks without me noticing it. I wanted something that could be worn under clothes if the need arose, and I wanted something that could be used comfortably with double penetration. The Bootie met all of those needs.

This is not a toy for someone looking for a lot of anal stimulation. Instead, the Bootie is perfect for those who are new to anal play, those looking to move into the endurance arena and those who are looking for a simple plug to help prepare the way for anal sex. While it is a little flexible and can require a bit of finesse to get it to insert easily if a little resistance is met, the silicone offers several nice features. One, I am confident that the material is not only safe for my body, but it is also easy to clean and sanitize according to the manufacturers. Two, the slight friction of the silicone allows it to stay put easier than, say, a glass plug.

Once in place, the Bootie offered very little stimulation on its own. However, that was ideal for me. I wanted to wear the plug while being spanked and vaginally stimulated. That is exactly what I did. Not having worn a plug during a spanking session before, I wanted something rather small and not intimidating. Something I would know was there, but did not have to worry that it would cause too much discomfort while I got used to be spanked with a plug. I hardly noticed the plug during the spanking except when my Love purposefully would flick it to remind me that it was still there.

I also wanted some form of double penetration: fingers, cock, another dildo, or whatever in my pussy while the plug was in my ass. My Love gave me almost all of the above, and this is when the Bootie really shined for me. As he massaged the inside of my pussy, I could feel the bulbous end of the Bootie in my ass. It was not over the top sensations like I would have with a larger anal toy, but it was just what I was seeking in this adventure.

My Love also tried the Bootie. This was where size really did matter. Unfortunately, the Bootie was just a little too short to provide any real prostate stimulation, but it did give him a nice sensation that allowed his orgasm to feel different but in a very good way.

Overall, I give the Bootie three stars. It performs well, is safe and sanitary. It is easy to use and easy to walk around while inserted. It is a little small for a lot of sensation, but that is also a plus when looking for something for an anal sex warm up.

Silicone toys are easy to maintain. Simply use a nice water based lube. I prefer Maximus for anal play. Silicone based lubes can degrade the toy.

Silicone is very easy to clean with mild soap and warm water. To ensure that it is sanitized, it can be boiled for a few moments or placed in the dishwasher.
