Cyber Flicker Review

When browsing my first sex shop the bullets really appealed to me, they didn’t seem as scary as some of the other items. The price was perfect, too. It was cheap enough to be a good buy for my first time, but didn’t seem so cheap that it would break the first chance I got to use it. This seemed simple and cute, perfect for a beginner.

When my boyfriend purchased this for me we were both so excited to go home and give it a try. The first thing I noticed was that the tickler part of this bullet felt very awkward to me, a little pokey. I ended up cutting that part down a good bit shorter, so that it wasn’t as uncomfortable, but it was probably just me. Once I cut it down to size though I really enjoyed it. I’m sure most women will find the tickler to be quite nice at the length it was originally, but for me, I just liked it shorter.

I really enjoyed the gradual speed control and the different settings. I found that these settings were pretty dead on! They worked out very nicely.

1. Foreplay – a light vibration, just enough to get you started.

2. Tease – this setting had a gradual speed, then it jumped back down to low, left me wanting more.

3. Pulsation – a mixture of different speeds, a nice pulsing sensation.

4. Vibration – this was just a nice steady vibration

5. Climax– a variant of the Tease setting, but this one goes to a higher, more intense speed, usually bringing you to climax

I had this bullet for about six months or so, then the wiring shorted out or something. I would have to wiggle the wires to get it to turn on, which was a pain in the ass, it left me pretty frustrated. Eventually it stopped working all together.

Pros:

The easy speed adjustment, and the different settings

Cons:

I personally didn’t like the long tickler, was a little too long

If this product didn’t short out on me, it would be a Must Have! But having a toy die on you is really annoying. I might purchase another one, the price is reasonable enough. It could have been just a defected one that I had.

I give it a 3 out of 5

Male Chastity Devices

I was browsing on a sex product site and came across something that caught me eye. It was a plastic, lockable male chastity device. I’ve seen leather versions before, but never gave it much thought. I just kind of figured it was another bondage item that I probably wouldn’t be interested in too much. But for some reason I was interested in it today, I like the idea of being able to “lock up” my lover’s cock and he can only become free when I say so.

Broadly defined, a chastity is any locking appliance (device or belt) that prevents the wearer engaging in sexual intercourse or masturbation.  Chastity originally started for women but today chastity is heavily geared towards males.  A chastity belt “primarily” prevents access to the mans penis, but does not necessarily prevent all orgasms.

With the design of most devices, it is extremely uncomfortable, sometimes painful for a man to obtain an erection, there is simply not enough room for it.  Some men report that they are able to achieve what amounts to an orgasm without ejaculation. Nocturnal erections can be a bit painful at first but soon the man’s body becomes accustomed.

There are some devices that are designed for long term wear, there should be no problem wearing it for days, weeks, months or some accounts say up to 12 or more months (some of these ‘long term’ accounts are probably fictional).

Shortly after discovering the page full of devices and researching it more, I asked my lover, “Would you ever let me put one on you?” To which he replied lovingly, “Fuck you.” I couldn’t help but respond “Only after I decide to remove it”

If you are interested in purchasing your own chastity device, I can’t recommend Extreme Restraints enough .

Snuggie Sutra

The Snuggie Sutra states plainly and simply, “You have a Snuggie. You have sex. It was inevitable.” TheSnuggieSutra.com offers a variety of suggestions for some steamy lovemaking positions—all using the highly-spoofed informercial Snuggie blanket.
Here are a few of my personal favorites:

The “Cuddly Puppy”

The “Yes Ma’am”

and The “Roller Coaster”

I may just have to invest in my own snuggie! lol

Here’s a link to all the other positions.

Not just good, but good for you!

Okay, so maybe there’s some wishful thinking going on — the science isn’t exactly iron-clad — but evidence is accumulating that the more sex you have, the better off you are.

There is one caveat, though. “We do not have good data to show a direct connection [to all-around good health],” says Jennifer Bass, the head of information services at the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction in Bloomington, Ind. “We know that healthier people have more sexual activity. But we do not know which comes first. Does the good health make you more willing to have sex, or does the sex have a positive impact?”

And you dirty girrrls and Don Juans should know that the assumed health benefits of sex are generally thought to accrue to people in loving, monogamous relationships or those flying solo. Risky sex with lots of partners will probably do more harm than good.
But while researchers try to nail down the impact on overall health, data is mounting when it comes to some specifics. Here are several potential benefits:

1. Easing depression and stress
Bass says this is pretty definite. “The release from orgasm does much to calm people. It helps with sleep, and that is whether we talk about solo sex or sex with a partner,” she says.

But wait, there’s more. A recent study of college students at the State University of New York in Albany suggests that semen acts as an antidepressant. Females in the study who were having sex without condoms (see safe sex caution, above) had fewer signs of depression than women who used condoms or abstained from sex.

“These data are consistent with the possibility that semen may antagonize depressive symptoms,” the authors wrote, “and evidence which shows that the vagina absorbs a number of components of semen that can be detected in the bloodstream within a few hours of administration.”

I kid you not, ladies. Semen is good stuff. It gives a shot of zinc, calcium, potassium, fructose, proteins — a veritable cornucopia of vitality!

2. Relieving pain
Orgasm is a powerful pain-killer. Oxytocin, a natural chemical in the body that surges before and during climax, gets some of the credit, along with a couple of other compounds like endorphins.

According to a study by Beverly Whipple, professor emeritus at Rutgers University and a famed sexologist and author, when women masturbated to orgasm “the pain tolerance threshold and pain detection threshold increased significantly by 74.6 percent and 106.7 percent respectively.”

3. Boosting cardio health
I can’t resist another plug for semen. It’s possible that male goo can lower blood pressure. Another recent study found that women who gave their men oral sex, and swallowed, had a lower risk of preeclampsia, the dangerously high blood pressure that sometimes accompanies pregnancy.
No, I’m not making this up. “The present study shows that oral sex and swallowing sperm is correlated with a diminished occurrence of preeclampsia,” said the Dutch authors.

See? We told you it was good for you.

There have been other studies showing that sex lowers blood pressure, and might even protect against strokes because of its stress-relieving ability.
But when we think of sex and the cardio system, we tend to think of poor old Nelson Rockefeller having a heart attack in flagrante delicto. Well, not only does that hardly ever happen, but sex might actually protect the heart. A 2002 report from a large British population of men said “some protection from fatal coronary events may be an added bonus” of frequent sexual intercourse.

4. Countering prostate cancer
Over the past few years, several journals have published studies showing that the more ejaculations the better.
Now the Journal of the American Medical Association, no less, has reported that “high ejaculation frequency was related to decreased risk of total prostate cancer.” It doesn’t matter how a man climaxes — intercourse or masturbation. So next time he says, “Really, honey, it’s therapy,” he could be telling the truth.

5. Healing wounds
Some evidence suggests sex can be rejuvenating to the point of helping wounds to heal faster. Several experiments have shown that oxytocin can help even stubborn sores, like those suffered by diabetics, to heal by regenerating certain cells.

6. Fighting aging
Maybe it’s the rejuvenation, maybe the happiness, maybe all of the above. One thing’s for sure: “Use it or lose it” is literally true. For example, postmenopausal women often suffer from “vaginal atrophy,” which is what it sounds like and can lead to all sorts of complications like urinary tract infections. What’s one way to prevent it? More intercourse.

Sex is a form of exercise, after all, and like all exercise, it burns calories and can help battle the onslaught of the years. In fact, nursing home experts say they wish oldsters would have more sex.

Can sex really make you live longer? Maybe. In the same population of British men I cited earlier, researchers found a 50 percent reduction in overall mortality in the group of men who said they had the most orgasms. There was a dose response: the more orgasms, the better.

Of course, as Kinsey’s Bass reminds us, it could be that these blokes were just healthier and felt like having sex more often. But since there’s no evidence that lots of sex is bad for you, what have you got to lose?
