And that's not cool. Everyone is into different stuff and that's fine and healthy. I don't like white chocolate but it would be silly to call people who do like white chocolate nasty names, right? How Do I Not Kink Shame? There are also probably folks who are turned off by the stuff you like. And that's okay. We don't have to all be the same. That would be boring. LGBTQ folks get shamed for their preferences. There are cultural and religious communities that have loads of shame around oral acts.

Suprise kinks crop up sometimes and can lead to some fun, satisfying evenings. As long as you're being safe, sane, and consensual, there's no harm in giving it a try. Keep in mind that this isn’t silicone so it can’t be sterilized and it’s not extra firm so it can be on the floppy side.It’s been brought up to me, regarding these toys, that the majority of us already have a hand, two even, but the angle of going solo is a real hassle. These toys are great if you’re interested in fisting but not ready to do it with a partner. It takes time to stretch and acclimate to something of this size so this makes for a good practice tool to work up to it over time.

A heterosexual couple having the most vanilla, loving, textbook-standard intimacy you could think of will be shamed based on their marital status. The Smithsonian rounded up several studies that all show that not only are people kinkier than we thought, but Americans are significantly kinkier than the world overall. According to a 2005 survey, 36 percent of Americans were actively into kink practices compared to the worldwide average of 20 percent.There's a market for each and every one of them and that's fine. Did You Know that Being Kinky is Actually Really Normal? I’m sorry, but this just looks like someone has contracted a horrible alien virus. It doesn’t make me want to get busy, it makes me want to call the CDC. It’s made of PVC silicone so it isn’t 100 percent silicone and may have that classic toy smell at first. It’s 7.8 inches long in total (maybe six insertable) and 1.65 inches in diameter.

That is the general rule. There are people who are into sex stuff that you may find weird, strange, or even repulsive. I know plenty of good, averagely-kinky folks who are into fisting but that still doesn’t mitigate my initial creep-out factor when I see a this fisting toy that’s a cast of a human arm. It’s just a lot to take in. (That’s a little fisting pun for you right there.) Their kink is not my kink but their kink is okay. Simply live and let live without making judgments. What If I'm Being Shamed? The Fifty Shades of Grey phenomenon has blown that wide open. (Just don't use that as a blueprint for your own kinky life because there is a mile-long list of problems in the books and movies that will get you in trouble or even injured--like their use of spreader bars.) For fantasy nerds, you can get toy versions of a basilisk, unicorn, as well as several versions of dragon from flesh-toned to neon green and scaley–which, I’ll be honest, looks more like a grub than something I’d like to sit on.That part of this toy isn’t strange and it very likely would feel amazing to use–but it’s weird when it’s a squirrel. Look at the little squinty eyes, shut in concentration. This squirrel is trying so hard and that’s not what I want to be thinking about. Don't panic! There's nothing wrong with that. Instead, be excited you've come upon an opportunity to explore something you didn't know you might want to explore. If it helps, unfortunately, people are going to get shamed by someone for whatever way they're choosing to get down. It's not just people on the fringes who get judged. Fisting is a practice that seems like it would be on the margins but is, again, more common than you’d think. There have been informative how-to articles for fisting on even Women’s Health Magazine and Cosmo. For example, I have a phobia of balloons. (It's a little odd but true.) At the same time, I know there are full communities of people who have a balloon fetish. While that sounds like a nightmare to me, I also think it's pretty neat that as humans we have such a range of interactions with simple objects like a balloon.

Study after study has shown that what used to be thought of as rare and deviant sexual behavior has turned out to be pretty typical. It’s odd, but it’s made fairly well. Your little squirrel buddy is made of body-safe silicone and has a magnetic induction charger so the entire toy is sealed and waterproof, meaning it’s safe to use in the bathtub.
