Did you happen to see the art installation? If you did, you can’t have missed the realistic dildo and the fleshlight locked together in an intimate act. They were part of a commentary on how social media and dating apps reduce us as people, even down to our basic genital functions. There were also brilliant sketches and a mirror effect to show how this reduction and isolation work in our lives. But of course, the sex toys are what stick out (or , as the case may be. Or is that too vulgar? I’m trying to be inclusive here).
But what about the people who aren’t trying to conceive? Why not use a regular dildo that won’t squirt all up in you? I mentioned the POPDildo to a queer woman in a relationship with a woman, and she seemed intrigued. “I feel like, yeah, I would be into trying it, but I don’t think it would be a thing we’d do regularly,” she said. “But it could be interesting in the right scenario or fantasy.”
I started masturbating as I normally would, fooling around with a vibrator. (This time, the spectacular , which is a bit dick-like itself.) Then I switched to a small, clitoral-only vibrator, holding it one hand and maneuvering the POPDildo inside myself with the other. The pairing of penetration and clitoral stimulation felt nice, but when I removed the vibrator, the in-and-out of the dildo felt … fine, but not exciting. When I remembered that I had to test the jizz function, I felt super daunted, and then unaroused, and then lost in the melody of “Merry Xmas Everybody” by Rooney. It was like trying to pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time. Before long I found myself worrying about Rooney—are they all OK? Did they survive a post -world? (Trick question: None of us are really “surviving” a post- world.)
“Looking back, that thing barely even vibrated. It was your standard plastic vibrating stick that was cheaply built (I think I bought it for roughly $20). It didn’t do a damn thing for me. I remember even trying to use it as a dildo, and the size and the plastic feeling felt alien and so, so uncomfortable in a very bad way. The cheapness made it feel strangely violating. I couldn’t use it again. I hid it
If you are trying it for the first time, you could start with one dildo and your fingers, or two slim dildos. Always use plenty of lube — the wetter the better and start by grinding into the dildos rather thrusting them.
