There are many sex toys that can be found on the market. Most of them can be used «alone» or with a partner. There is one, however, that is specifically designed for use with a partner. We are talking about the strap-on.

What is a strap-on? Also called a sex harness, this adult toy is a kind of belt equipped with a dildo and can be used in both heterosexual and homosexual relationships.

There are many lesbians who use this erotic toy to simulate a heterosexual relationship with their partner. With it, a woman penetrates the other both vaginally and anally.

But the strap-on is not just a toy for lesbians. In fact, more and more straight couples are using the strap-on to switch roles. In these cases, the woman wears the penis harness to penetrate her male partner, who experiences all the pleasure that comes from stimulating the prostate.

This sexual practice in which the woman plays the role of penetrator on her male partner, who is penetrated anally, is called pegging.

Next we will look at the different types of strap-ons that exist and how they should be used.

How to wear a strap-on?
The first thing to consider when using a strap-on is how we like to penetrate or, if applicable, be penetrated. This will determine the type of toy to use.

Once we have chosen the type of harness, we will have to choose the correct size of the toy. In doing so, we must remember a maxim: pleasure and comfort usually always go hand in hand. If we choose a toy that is uncomfortable to wear, we will not enjoy using it as much as if we chose one that is comfortable for us.

Another factor to take into account when choosing a sex toy with these characteristics is the material it is made of. It is important that it is soft, as it will guarantee more pleasant penetrations. It is also important to consider what type of material is easier to clean.

Once we have chosen the model and size, we must put on the harness. This task is usually easy. You just have to make sure that you adjust the side straps correctly but, yes, without tightening them too much.

Once the harness is positioned, the dildo must be attached to it.

Many people, carried away by anxiety, believe that, at this point, it is time to penetrate. Yes: but calmly, especially when it comes to anal penetration.

As we are used to explaining every time we talk about anal sex, when we practice it, we must always keep in mind that the anus does not lubricate. This is why it is always advisable to use a generous amount of lubricant, in addition to massaging that area so that the anal sphincter relaxes and can dilate better.

If you do not act with the indicated caution and without haste when performing this type of practice, penetration can be painful.

Finding a comfortable sexual position that facilitates anal penetration is also very important for it to be enjoyable. Lying on your back with your knees bent on your chest is an ideal position for pegging. Even the traditional doggy style.

If the person being penetrated is a woman, you must also keep in mind that the dildo should never be inserted into the vagina after anal penetration. The rectum is an area of ​​the body where bacteria proliferate and these could cause a bad infection in the vagina if they enter it.

Finally, we will highlight a fundamental factor when talking about sex toys: their hygiene and cleanliness. A toy with these characteristics, and especially if it has been used for anal penetration, must be washed before and after use. I eat? With water and neutral soap.

Types of strap-ons

As we have seen, the strap-on is a harness that, attached to the hip, has a dildo or dildo. This could already be integrated into the harness or could be inserted into the harness.

In the vast market of erotic toys we can find different types of strap-ons:

• Hollow dildo. In this type of strap-on, the mold of the fake penis is hollow. If it is actively used by a man, he only has to insert his penis into said mold. This type of sex toy is used both by men who suffer from some type of erectile dysfunction and have erection problems, and by those who seek to simulate a larger phallus.
• Realistic. The realistic strap-on is the one in which the dildo has the shape of a real penis, with its swollen veins, glans, etc.
  
• Double. In heterosexual relationships, this harness is used so that the woman, while penetrating the man, is stimulated vaginally. That is to say: at the same time that he penetrates, she is penetrated, being the one who determines the rhythm and power of the double penetration that occurs when using it. This strap-on modality without a harness is useful both for practicing pegging and for lesbian relationships.
  On the market you can also find vibrating dildos for our sexual harness. If we choose a vibrator, it is preferable to choose one with different levels of vibration. Experimenting with its intensity is a good way to introduce a playful factor in the use of a strapon.

Once we have seen the basic types of strap-ons that we can find on the market, let’s see how these fantastic erotic games should be used, among which the strap-on dildo is, as we have seen, just another genre.
