What is a Strapon?

Strapon or strap on is simply the name for a dildo that can be strapped on. The sex toy is versatile and is suitable for both sexes thanks to different designs. As the name suggests, the dildo or vibrator is attached to a harness or special panties and strapped on. Harness is a special term from agriculture. The original purpose was to use the harness for farm animals.

The history of the strapon goes back not only centuries, but even millennia. Ergo: People recognised the benefits of a strap-on early on. In ancient Egypt, for example, double dildos were used more than 3,000 years ago. And strap-ons and dildos were also not unknown in other advanced cultures, such as China. In particular, some dildos with matching harnesses for strapping on have been found as burial objects. These may not have been as comfortable as today, but the purpose was certainly served.

In the different cultures and times, strapons were made from every imaginable material. While in China even porcelain was used, other cultures made carved model versions from wood. Meanwhile, there are also glass strapons, some models with real gold plating and even very hard variants made of stainless steel. The majority of users, however, prefer strapons made of softer materials: silicone, latex or plastic mixtures can be mixed in different degrees of hardness and thus provide a wide range of choice. Not only comfort, but also the resemblance to a real penis are often in the foreground. Thanks to advanced technology, there are now also strapons with vibration functions.

How you use the strapon depends not only on your sex and the sex of your sexual partner, but also on the type of strapon. The manufacturers of the sex toy usually leave nothing to be desired here: The range on the market is extremely creative and multifaceted. Basically, a distinction is made between different variants, which then result in the respective possible uses.

The double dildo without a harness is controversial. The lack of a harness increases the risk of the double dildo slipping out. Furthermore, frequent straightening can make lovemaking more difficult or disrupt it. For many people, this type of sex toy does not even belong in the strap-on category, as it can neither be put on nor put over.

A special mention should be made of the BDSM strapon, which has a mouth gag on one side and a dildo on the other. All of the above-mentioned variants are available in different versions, and in some models the attachments can even be exchanged. The materials and the degree of hardness vary, as does the quality.

In general, it is important to pay attention to high-quality manufacturing when purchasing such a sex toy. Similar to bad shoes, it would of course be annoying if something pinches or pulls. In other words, a bad fit of the strapon spoils the whole experience. The fit itself is another variable of the toy. The strap-on can be worn not only on the hips, but also on the thigh or even the head. In addition, the orientation, i.e. whether the dildo is directed upwards or downwards, is decisive for the intensity during different sex positions.

Basically, thanks to the many possibilities and designs, there is a lot of room for imagination... What are you waiting for? Just give it a try!

Grundsätzlich gilt: Dank der vielen Möglichkeiten und Ausführungen entsteht jede Menge Spielraum für Fantasie… Worauf warten Sie noch? Probieren Sie es doch einfach mal aus!

Preparing for sex with a strap-on dildo is not only about preparing the strap-on dildo itself. The respective body orifices should be equally well prepared. It is especially important to use lubricant gel or similar, suitable substances. If you are planning to have anal sex, it is often a good idea to put a condom on the dildo as well.

When putting on a double strap-on with the dildo pointing inwards, the vagina should already be a little moist. In general, strap-on sex always requires a little sensitivity in the form of exploration or a little foreplay. This not only makes penetration easier, it also makes it easier to reach various climaxes. By the way, the first strapon experience must be especially well prepared. Because the dildo is not a part of the body, there is no sensation during penetration.

With enough stretching and preparation, anal satisfaction, for example, makes the man and the woman equally happy. Because women also have a prostate which makes them feel pleasure when properly stimulated. Of course, a strapon should be cleaned after every lovemaking session, regardless of whether it was used anally or vaginally. In addition, it should also be cleaned again before each use. Whether you disinfect it or wash it thoroughly with a special cleaning agent is entirely up to you. The only important thing is that hygiene comes first and is your top priority.

As with conventional sexual intercourse, every couple has a favourite position for strap-on sex. Basically, it can be said that almost every position that exists can be wonderfully tried out with a strap-on. Of course, the type of strap-on determines a little what exactly is possible and what is not. For example, if the strap-on has a slit, the wearer can be additionally stimulated vaginally or anally. The use of tongue, fingers or other aids is then also possible. If the harness does not allow this possibility, it is of course not possible. For newcomers in this area, it is advisable to be cautious at first. Positions in which the passive part influences or even controls the penetration and the intensity of the act are advantageous to get used to. If the Strapon is used by men, the process may be easier because they already have a feeling for how to use it. When you are used to it and ready to take it a step further, there are various Strapon games. Both in BDSM or with the Strapon on your head and with more than one sexual partner, numerous combinations arise. Again, let your imagination run wild and think about what you can come up with a strap on.

How strap-on sex is perceived and what experiences people have had with it varies greatly. In many forums that deal with the topic, opinions differ widely. Nevertheless, a clear trend of Strapon experiences can be identified, especially among men. Everything is represented, from short statements like: “Simply awesome!” to detailed reports. There are also many stories about initial scepticism that turned into great pleasure and even about regular use of the sex toy. Bad reports, on the other hand, are rare or even non-existent. What may surprise you is that the number of women who enjoy the change of roles is quite considerable. These women mostly report “pleasure that arises in the mind”. Numerous ladies also wish they could penetrate their partner once with a strap-on dildo. However, inexperienced men seem to be reluctant to give the Strapon a chance for various reasons. However, once people have gotten involved, the strap-on experience is mainly described as unexpectedly beautiful.
