    How to Use a Strap-On Dildo

    Strap-on dildos are an incredible addition to the bedroom, whether you're a woman looking to penetrate your partner or a man wanting to experiment with anal stimulation. On this page, we'll discuss how to make the most out of your strap-on dildo and provide you with some tips to make it as pleasurable as possible. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, we hope this page will help you enjoy the benefits of a strap-on dildo. So, sit back and let's get started!

    Here are some general steps you can follow when using a strap-on dildo:

    1. Choose a suitable strap-on dildo

    When choosing a suitable strap-on dildo, it's important to consider your personal preferences and the way you want to penetrate or be penetrated. By choosing the right type of strap-on and possibly a harness, you can ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

    For example, if you're looking for a strap-on dildo suitable for double penetration, there are also double-ended strap-on dildos available. These dildos have two ends, allowing both you and your partner to be penetrated at the same time.

    Another option is a hollow strap-on that can be worn by men. These dildos are designed for men who want to enlarge their penis or have an erection problem. The hollow space can be filled with a penis or dildo, allowing the man to penetrate while wearing the dildo.

    Make sure the size of the dildo fits well with the harness you have chosen. Pay attention to the size, shape, texture, and materials. It's important to ensure that the dildo fits well with the harness.

    2. Choose a suitable harness

    Strap-on harnesses are available in various designs, including models with a fixed size and harnesses with adjustable straps. With adjustable harnesses, the straps can be adjusted as desired for a better fit and to keep the harness securely in place during use. When choosing a harness, it's important to consider the size and shape of your body so that the harness fits comfortably. Therefore, measure your hip and leg circumference and consult the harness size chart to choose the right size.

    It's also important to check whether the dildo is compatible with the harness. Many harnesses have a ring in which the dildo is placed, so make sure the diameter of the ring matches the diameter of the dildo. Also, check whether the dildo stays securely in place in the harness, allowing you to enjoy the penetration without worries.

    If you want to use a strapless strap-on, you don't need to look at a harness. A strapless strap-on is designed to be used without a harness and stays in place through the insertable side of the dildo.

    3. Attach the dildo to the harness

    Once you've found the right strap-on harness, the next step is to attach the strap-on dildo.

    Many harnesses have a ring at the front, behind which you can place the suction cup or flat base of the strap-on dildo. Here are the steps to place a strap-on dildo in a harness:

    • Loosen the straps of the harness and slide the harness up to your hips or waist, depending on how you want to wear it.
    • Place the suction cup or flat base of the strap-on dildo in the ring at the front of the harness. Make sure the dildo is securely in place and not wobbling.
    • Tighten the harness straps and fasten them so that the harness fits snugly around your hips or waist and the dildo stays in place.

    4. Apply lubricant

    Apply lubricant to the dildo to make insertion easier and more comfortable. Therefore, choose a lubricant that is compatible with the material of the dildo and will not break down. It is important to note that you cannot combine silicone lubricant with a silicone sex toy. This is because the silicone lubricant can react with the toy's material, causing the surface to be damaged. We recommend choosing a water-based lubricant for use with all types of sex toys, especially silicone ones.

    If you want to anally penetrate your partner, it is important to know that the rectum does not have the natural lubrication that the vagina does. This makes sufficient lubrication essential for comfortable and safe penetration. Therefore, it is advisable to use an extra-thick water-based lubricant, specially designed for anal use.

    5. Start slowly

    Start slowly and gently with the insertion of the dildo, especially if your partner is new to this type of stimulation. Listen to their feedback and instructions to know what they like and what they don't.

    Note! It is important to remember that you should never go directly from anal penetration to vaginal penetration. This is because there may be bacteria in the rectum that can be transferred to the vagina via the dildo, leading to unpleasant infections.
