Reader Review: The Fleshlight
March 9th, 2010(not safe for work version)
I know that you enjoy my sex toy reviews, but there are so many wonderful toys out there that I can’t possibly try them all myself. That’s why I encourage my readers to share their experiences with sex toys by calling in to my podcast, recording audio of their review, or simply sending an email with their thoughts. Reader Saithix was generous enough to send in his review of the famed Fleshlight. Enjoy!
Feel and Texture
Well, what can i say about the Fleshlight other than it looks like a big flashlight. The toy offers an intense and realistic feel, similar to a blowjob and vagina. The butt orifice, however, feels nothing like anal sex because a real anus pushes down on your penis and provides the intensity of a tight squeeze. The vagina orifice does come close to the real vagina, but in order to get a truly real feel you should warm it for about 10 minutes. So if you’re hot and horny and not patient you may have a problem.
After a few uses of this product it does become sticky. The manufacturer tells you to put corn starch on it, but I honestly don’t think you need it because once it is wet you won’t even notice the stickiness. The smell of the product isn’t that potent at first but once it is used a few times it begins to become noticeable. It’s not that bad, though. All i can say is that it’s not a toxic smell like some other toy products have.
Pros
1) Some of the orifices on this product are intense. Certain ones, like the stamina training unit and the forbidden (Fleshlight Girls), are incredible. In fact, they are so good they might make your wife or girlfriend jealous.
2) The Case. It’s always good to hide things from the ones you love such as your wife, kids, or parents. Of course, they just might think you have one big-ass flashlight as long as they don’t look at it for too long.
[Misty disagrees that it's good to hide things from your wife, while begrudgingly acknowledging that not all partners are open to the use of sex toys.]
3) Selection in color, cases, and orifices. We men get bored after a while using the same thing over and over again, and that’s whats good about the Fleshlight. They have many different styles of orifices with different feels. Now that’s something to bargain for! I just wish they would come out with new orifices at least every 6 months to a year.
Cons
1) Takes too long to prepare. I mean who wants to wait 10 minutes for the product to warm up? That’s like getting a cock tease at a strip club and not being able to do anything until you get home.
2) Cleaning up. Cleaning this product is one thing, but not being able to get it dry in the middle inside is a problem. Make sure you have a fan because its gonna be sitting on your bed for a while to dry up.
3) The suction is very weak. I had this thing fully sealed and felt very little suction. This is something they should try to improve on future versions.
Overall Rating: 7 out of 10
