Big damn BAST day dreams
International Buy A Sex Toy Day is fast approaching (it’s June 4th!), and I’m contemplating what to buy. I want to make this sex toy purchase count (toward mad orgasms). I’m not above buying cheap-ass sex toys, no, but in honor of the first annual BAST day I want to get something special, something I’m sure I won’t regret. So I’ve narrowed my current wishlist down to five top contenders. And here they are…
- Sqweel The way oral sex simulators are described always irks me. For instance, the marketing copy for this toy on most sites says: “Luckily, the Sqweel won’t give you any excuses. No tired jaw, no early meeting the next morning, so it’ll keep going as long as you need.” Ooh baby. Nothing makes me horny like thinking about how much people hate to go down on me! Nevertheless, this toy looks like fun, and completely unlike anything else out there. In partnered sex, I tend to prefer oral sex with hard fingering right on my G-spot, so I’m curious as to whether I’ll feel the need for some penetration while using this.
- We Vibe 2 The We Vibe is made specifically for wearing while fucking, in the sense that it’s supposed to go inside you (and also outside you) while a penis is also inside you. That promises like a million and seven standard units of stimulation for everyone involved! A while back, Laramy and I visited a sex toy shop and the We Vibe 2 was sitting there all coy on a glass shelf, begging to be picked up and fondled. Once we figured out how to turn the damn thing on, the vibration patterns were mesmerizing, and my imagination was captured: I wanted to put it in and fuck him right there on the floor immediately. Unfortunately, it was not that kind of place. Two misgivings: I don’t really know if the added friction against something shiny and silicone (even though it is, as advertised, quite soft) is going to be a problem for my partner’s penis, and I don’t know if I’m going to be able to keep up with the plot of the sequel without first seeing We Vibe 1.
- Njoy Pure Wand This is the G-spot toy, apparently. I want it both for personal use and for its great potential in the realm of girlfucking. It should come with a t-shirt that says “I will make you squirt”. Or wait, would that be tacky? Oh wait, don’t care.
- Lelo Ina So my Impulse Jack Rabbit all kinds of died. It’s pretty much a mere shadow of its former, bliss-giving self. We had a good run so I’m not mad…I’m just disappointed. But if the rumors are true, Lelo has taken the winning Rabbit vibe formula and elevated it to high art with the Ina. I feel like that might just help me through my mourning process.
- Eroscillator As a huge fan of clitoral masturbation, ever since I read Epiphora’s review of this technological marvel I’ve been consumed with desire. I burn, I pine, I perish. For reals. Plus, this is the only vibrator ever recommended by Dr. Ruth Westheimer, and you may recall that BAST day is on her birthday. It’s fate or something, I swear. Of course, the package I want goes for $240.90, so I’m starting to think that fate is cruel. Realistically, I’ll probably start saving up now so I can buy it for BAST day . Still, it’s a beautiful dream.
Honorable Mention: Fleshlight Ice I can’t emphasize enough how dearly I want to fuck a Fleshlight with my Feeldoe. It would feel so deliciously postmodern. And the Fleshlight Ice is the clear favorite for this activity because of the visual treat of seeing every inch of my beautiful cock as it slides in and out. The only problem is that I mostly want it for novelty because I’m not sure it’ll beat jacking off with my Feeldoe one iota sensation-wise.
So there’s my shortlist. Each of my top five occupies a different sex toy niche, which makes the choice both more interesting and harder. As always, your input is welcome.
I hope you consider going online or visiting your local sex shop to buy a sex toy on June 4th, or at least spreading the word about BAST day! Blog it, tweet it, whatever! I think it would be wicked fun if it caught on.
I’ve heard bad things about the Sqweel. http://sexisfunradioshow.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2009-11-24T18%3A08%3A00-06%3A00&max-results=20 (Check out the PDF or the enhanced MP3 version of the Holiday Buyer’s Guide for more info.)
I haven’t tried #2 or #4, but #2 looks awesome and I definitely want a review if you get that one because it’s been on my maybe purchase list for a while.
I have an Njoy plug and I love it, so I have no doubt the wand would be awesome. They come in these swanky, satiny boxes; they’re really solidly built and satisfyingly heavy; they’re easy to clean/sterilize; and it’s fun to run it under cold water first – it changes temperature really quickly so you can sort of do ice play.
I also have an Eroscillator and I’m disappointed in it. I love my Magic Wand and I need that powerful vibration. Even the deluxe version I got just wasn’t anywhere near as powerful. So if the Wand is too strong for you, I could see the Eroscillator being a good solution. It just takes a lot more work for me to get off with it since it isn’t that intense.
My partner also has a Fleshlight Ice and it’s so much fun to watch.
The Sqweel seems a little too much like squatting over a buffer wheel.
My BAST plan is just a basic bullet. I’ve killed like six of the damn things. If I could get one that works without a stupid wire box, and is really waterproof–like “take it scuba diving” waterproof, because I always manage to kill “splashproof”–I would be very happy.
Also, I’m jealous of artsynomad because I want to watch a dude fuck a Fleshlight Ice!
@artsynomad Damn, that’s some good input. You’ve just helped me narrow things down to the we vibe or the njoy wand. Thanks!
Also, seconding Holly’s Fleshlight Ice jealousy.
@Holly Pervocracy I think these might be up your alley, based on what you describe. I don’t know if they’re scuba-proof, per se, but they’re supposed to be waterproof and well-made.
Anyway, yeah. Fleshlight Ice. Me too. Yes. That.
No problem. I’m kind of a sex toy connoisseur. :)
I’m thinking of getting one of these for my BAST celebration, now that I have a proper tub/shower that can fit more than one person. That or some sort of liberator shape.
Sqweel — Okay, it feels interesting, but you have to hold open your labia for it, which is really obnox. Also, it blocks the vagina so is really difficult to use with a penetrative toy. Not really worth it, imo.
Pure Wand — Amazing. Will change your life. Orgasms that cause one to stop breathing.
Ina — Watch out. The clitoral stimulator is STIFF. When I use it, it puts the most insane pressure on my clit that I’ve EVER felt — feels like it goes down to the bone. It’s really, really intense, and not what I think most people would want. If they changed that one thing, the Ina would be golden.
Eroscillator — Duh. You know how I feel about this one. My love has not waned, although I do really like the Wahl for extra added power.
@Epiphora Hmmmm, the pure wand is life-changing, you say? Damn, if I don’t get it for BAST I’m sure as hell going to get my hands on one soon!
@artsynomad Oh, how dearly I love shower sex! That could be damn useful.
Damnit, if I had remembered BAST was coming up, I would’ve waited to buy a Feeldoe! Although it might come in on the 4th… does that count?
The Squeel looks like it’d be like sticking your pussy in one of those little battery-operated plastic fans you buy in the checkout line at Walgreens. I’d be afraid to use it!
