Why don't YOU own a fleshlight? (Or knock off)

A few main reasons, if I had to guess.

1. You think they're too expensive.
Name brand runs close to $100, but you can get life-like knock offs for under $40, on Amazon.

2. Sex toys are for women!
Oh, you! Trust me when I say, guys are allowed to experience pleasure too. Why is it completely normal for a girl to use a vibrator, but if a guy wants a toy, he's considered "weird"?

3. I have a girlfriend, I don't need that shit!
I've been living with my girlfriend for a few years now, and we have differing sex drives. Sometimes she doesn't want to, is tired from work, doesn't feel well, etc. Does this mean I shouldn't get off until she's ready? Even if it's days, or possibly weeks?
Of course not!

4. I would feel embarrassed buying it...
That's fair. I wouldn't really want to buy it in-person either. But as I mentioned earlier, Amazon offers great prices and discreet shipping.

Any questions?

I have sex with too many women for it to be useful

I had a tenga when my girlfriend in college went to another state on an internship

my hand works just fine. It's not worth the trouble of having to clean the thing

It feels MUCH closer to the real thing. Only thing missing is the warmth.

No but my GF names her vibrators

I had one before and the cleaning was always a hassle. After cranking one out I don't feel like doing much of anything, let alone making sure I'm giving something a thorough cleaning and leaving it to dry properly.

There's also a bit of "prep" if you want it to be warmed up and you end up having to use lube as well which is an extra step and messier too.

Overall for me it just wasn't that much better than just using your hand. Not enough to warrant the extra hassle imo. It's a bit more comparable to an actual vagina, but it too feels looser than your hand so if you take a while getting off during sex you might take a while with a fleshlight too.

I do own one. I just rarely use it.

Cleaning process depends on the model you choose. Mine has openings on both ends, so I can run hot water straight through it.

its something that i would never spend my own money on

but if someone wanted to buy it for me as a gift, i would probably use it regularly

I own a magic wand.

I run a website in my spare time dealing in used fleshlights

Have one, kinda annoyed I don't have anything to warm it with. I hear they feel amazing when warmed up

Short of leaving it in a pot of hot water, I'm not sure what other methods would work. I doubt they're microwave safe lmao

many women who have sex toys have them because they can't get off consistently any other way. there are comparatively few men who can't get themselves off.

nothing wrong with fleshlight's by any means, but doing this weird cheerful shaming of non-owners and people not interested in owning them is pretty dumb

anyway, for me masturbation is business and sex is pleasure, so i have no interest in enhancing my masturbation habits

i may buy buttplugs someday, tho

No one here is shaming anyone for not having one.

I listed reservations people may have about getting one.

Hell, I've only had mine for a few months.

I have interest or need in sex toys for myself.

Now for my wife, sure. And not just for her, but for us to use together.

#3 for me

Hell yeah. Using toys together/on each other is awesome. I LOVE watching her squirm from the wand.

My hand would get jealous.

Because I can spit in my hand if she isn't around.

Though it would be convenient to not have to worry about having pepper juices on my hands or in my saliva.

I've only used my hand once since, and that was in a time crunch.

A time crunch sounds like some Neil DeGrasse Tyson shit.

I cut up a red Carolina Reaper and a yellow Moruga Scorpion to cook the flavor into my pork steak. I didn't even bother to wash my hands that time. I scratched myself for about 15 seconds and let it go. The burn started setting in after another 30 seconds and started building. It got pretty intense so I decided to get in the shower to try to speed things up.

Bad idea. It intensified everything and I had to back up so the water wasn't touching me. Crippling pain where all you can do is tense up, shiver and wince.

Though I've had successful deeds through it. Despite washing my hands at least 4 times...my hand was still spicy the next morning. The heat builds gradually. Had to manage to finish before it became intolerable.

I still eat these peppers fresh and cook with them regularly. The flavors are too good not to.

Water activates the chemical that makes hot peppers hot. Dunk your junk in a nice cool glass of milk next time.

Yeah, I have had one for years, but I use it only a couple times a year.

Just is a hassle and isn't good to use with roommates lol

Capsaicin also bonds to oils. I just get a cup of vegetable/canola oil and rest it in there. I don't like the idea of wasting milk and plus....

Milk isn't strong enough for superhots. The people you see eating pods on YouTube without drinking anything aren't being badass. They just know that after a certain scoville level, the milk just spreads it around like the water does.

I make sure I've had a substantial solid meal and I drink a glass of milk before I eat them. That almost entirely knocks out ring burn but I may still have to deal with capsaicin cramps.

This is my most used method.

It's basically like doggy. And you can rest your phone on top of the couch to watch videos.

Yeah, it'd be hard to use with roommates. Can be a little noisy.

dont buy the cheapo ones on Amazon

most cheap sex toys are made of pretty low-quality materials and can have pretty gnarly stuff in the materials(like heavy metals, phthalates, etc). Just pay out for stuff you know is gonna be safe and dont roll the dice on cheap chinese junk(although not all cheap brands are junk...but most of them are)

Dammit, you know what I mean...not a good idea to use with others living in the house lol. Don't wanna forget it in the sink and the time it takes to warm up and clean and what not, just not as incognito since you gotta take it out of your bedroom

Word. My gf and I work opposite schedules most days, so this isn't a problem for me. But when she is home, and hanging out in the living room, I hate that risky dash from my bedroom to the bathroom.
