How does a strap on work?

If you are new to strap ons, then you may not be entirely sure how they work. Designed to switch up the sexual dynamics in your relationship, strap ons can be enjoyed by straight, queer, bi, and pansexual people. Well, pretty much everyone, actually!

A basic strap on set-up includes a harness and a dildo, with the former typically featuring an O-ring and the latter boasting a flared base. There are three main styles of harnesses: jockstrap, thong, and underwear, with each one offering different benefits.

As you are probably already aware, dildos come in many different shapes, sizes, and even colors, and the one you pick is purely down to personal preference. Some people prefer the look of a flesh-colored dildo that most mimics a real penis, while others prefer more colorful and wacky designs.

There are many different ways that you can use and get pleasure from a strap on, with some of the most popular positions being on-top, doggy style, and spooning.

Strap ons can be used for vaginal, oral, and anal sex.

When to use a strap on

Again, this comes down to personal preference, but many queer couples like to use a strap on once they have reached a certain level of arousal, for example, after making out, fingering, or after oral sex.

It is important that both parties feel ready to use a strap on and that you use a lot of lube. We mean a LOT of lube. This helps to make the experience more enjoyable for everyone involved and will help the dildo penetrate more easily.

Although some couples prefer for only one partner to wear the strap on, there is no reason why you can’t take turns and allow both of you to enjoy penetrative queer sex.

What does a strap on feel like?

For those that have never worn a strap on before, you may be wondering what it feels like?

While the answer is different for each individual, many women say that it makes them feel powerful as they are able to penetrate their partner and that it also brings them closer together as a couple.

On a purely practical level, wearing a strap on can be hard work. Expect to work muscles you didn’t even know existed! It can also be quite hard to control the dildo and get the right rhythm, especially if you are new to using a strap on. However, practice makes perfect!

Let’s see what our satisfied customers have to say!

“It’s tiring as hell but worth the effort. The first time we used it, it slipped and slid all over the place, but we soon got the hang of it. I loved the feeling of being in control, and even just walking around wearing it made me feel sexy and powerful.”

“I only like being on the receiving end of a strap on, which is perfect for us as my partner loves giving pleasure. I love it most when my partner is on top and I’m sitting up in a chair or on the couch. We only use our strap on for vaginal sex but might try anal in the future. Never say never!”

“Both me and my partner orgasm when we use our strap on set. It was a bit awkward at first, but we laughed our way through it, and it definitely brought us closer together. One thing I will say is that lube is essential. The more, the better. It’s wet, it’s hot, and it’s messy!”

Top tips for using a strap on for the first time

1. Find the right dildo

There are so many different types of dildos on the market, with a huge variety of shapes, sizes, and styles. If it is your first time using a strap on, then it can be a good idea to start small and gradually work your way up. Make sure that you talk to your partner and find a size that you both feel comfortable using.

2. Pick a harness that fits

Just as important as your choice of dildo, you need to make sure that you pick a harness that fits properly. Adjustable harnesses are the easiest to use and can help to ensure you have a comfortable fit.

3. Try out the strap on prior to using

It can be a good idea to try on the strap on before you plan to enjoy penetrative sex. This can help to break the ice and make you feel more relaxed when the time comes to use your new sex toy for the first time.

4. Don’t take it too seriously

Although you may want it to go perfectly the first time, this is unlikely to be the case. It is often a case of trial and error to see which positions you find most enjoyable and easiest to achieve. Remember that practice makes perfect so just keep trying!

5. Make sure to communicate

As with any sexual activity, it is vital that you communicate with your partner. Tell them what you like. When it feels good and when it doesn’t. Don’t just rely on body language to express how you feel; you need to actually tell your partner with words.
