SaSi Vibrator

The SaSi vibrator invented by British company Je Joue has been touted as the best thing since sliced bread.  Well, maybe not sliced bread, but it was named the best sex toy of 2009 by Cosmo magazine and 1 of the top 10 toys of 2008 by Fleshbot.  And, while it can’t slice your bread, it is supposed to be the closest thing to cunninglingus next to a real life tongue.  (Yes, even better than the most excessively promoted sex toy this year, the Sqweel [my review]).

So, what’s the hype all about?

To be honest, I have been one of the many sex toy reviewers who have been craving to get their pussy next to a SaSi.  Who wouldn’t want to try a “sexual intelligence” sex toy that claims to mimic oral sex and learns what you like, just like a lover?  But are these claims true?

Yes.  The SaSi does feel as close as a sex toy can get to a good clitty lickin’. Under a soft silicone stretchy surface, a little pleasure nub sticks out to rub and titillate your clit.  Depending on your mode, this nub strokes, circles and flickers, much like a real tongue, while you control the speed and vibration.

Pre-Programmed Mode

The nub has five settings in the pre-programmed mode, which are the most favored among the test users.  You can cycle through the modes by pressing the next button, or go back.  It is a good way to first get introduced to the various motions of the nub, before trying the Custom Mode out.

Custom Mode

In Custom Mode the SaSi tries various movements which you can pass on by pressing the next button, or tell SaSi you like it, by clicking “Don’t Stop”.  Gradually, SaSi remembers your likes and dislikes and eventually changes the Pre-Programmed Mode to your favorites.

Getting to Know Your SaSi

Like a lover, the SaSi requires a bit of time to get to know her.  She becomes a better lover over time, once she gets to know what you like, and once you get used to her functions.  She’s much more sophisticated than any wham-bam-thank-you-ma’m vibrator and therefore requires more romance before you get down and bed her.  Give the SaSi time to show you her moves so you can make the most out of what she has to offer.

Design

The SaSi is curved to fit neatly between the labia and hug the clitoris.  It takes a while to position the SaSi perfectly, so the nub moves around and touches the clit in just the right way.  Lube is a must and while it takes a bit of trial and error, you’ll know when you got it in just the right place.  In Custom Mode I recommend going slowly through the modes and trying each one as you move the SaSi around to find the best feel.  If it’s not working for you, move on.  When you do find one you like, hit the “Don’t Stop” but then continue on as SaSi just might surprise you with other tricks up her sleeve.  You will find that the SaSi will perform better the second time you use her than the first, as there is a bit of a learning curve with using her.

Controls

I found the buttons a bit difficult to use at first.  This is because I have long fingernails, and it makes it hard to push the buttons, especially the next button when in use.  After a bit, I was better able to control the buttons with practice using the pads of my fingers.

Power

The SaSi needs to be charged before using.  She comes with several plug adapters for use in the North America, UK, Europe, and Australia.  Just plug her in and her indicator will be red when uncharged which turns to green when fully charged.

The SaSi also vibrates in addition to the nubby motions it makes.  On high, this vibration is pretty good (not mind blowing, but satisfactory and comparable with Lelo’s).  Combined with the nub movements, it is enough to get you over the edge to orgasm.

The SaSi is more of a slow seduction that will allow you to gradually build to orgasm, rather than a Va-voom, rock-your-world kind of sex toy.  People who rely on the Hitachi would hate it.  However, if you are into a slow, seductive evening of self-pleasure, then the SaSi is your gal.

njoy pure wand

I have been coveting an NJoy Pure Wand ever since I saw Nina Hartley’s “Guide to Female Ejaculation” [my review] when Anna Mills squirts copious amounts of girl cum while using this ultimate G-spot wonder toy.  Before that, I had squirted on occasion but wasn’t in control of my G-spot orgasms and ejaculations like I am now.  Back then, which was only a few months ago, I was in the process of rediscovering that part of my female anatomy and Nina’s guide got me started on the right path.  From there I read several books, practiced with the correct “tools” and was off to the races, ejaculation-style.

Since then, I have used several excellent G-spot toys (which you can check out in my G-spot Girl’s Resource Guide).  But, I knew that the Pure Wand was the ultimate in attaining G-spot pleasure.  How did I know?  Well, first was all the cooing and praise given to it by reviewers.  But, I was also aware that the G-spot requires two specific qualities to make it effective: 1) an exaggerated G-spot curve, and 2) a firm material.

njoy pure wand

As you can see by the photo, the Pure Wand has a very exaggerated curve.  This curve is important for effectively hitting the G-spot (rubbing, bumping, grinding and thrusting).  The Pure Wand also features two rounded bulbs on each end, one fairly larger than the other.  These rounded bulbs are perfectly designed for massaging the G-spot, and is another feature you should look for in a G-spot toy.  Pointy tips will not do!  The smaller bulb is great for the beginning of your masturbation session and is easily inserted into the vagina while you warm it up.  The larger bulb is pretty big and will make you feel completely full.  It may be too large for some women actually.  I found it a bit of an effort to insert, but once in there it put a pleasurable pounding on my G-spot that left me squirting and shaking.  I also preferred the feeling of the larger rounded head to the smaller one against my spot once it was fully sensitive and ballooning with fluid.

The Pure Wand is constructed of medical grade, stainless steel (the kind of steel used in the pins that surgeon’s use to reconnect joints within the body).  So you know it is 100% body safe.  And, stainless steel is the hardest sex toy material available next to kryptonite.  That makes the Pure Wand a perfect material for G-spot play, because as we know, the G-spot prefers hard, firm pressure.

I have read a lot of misconceptions about how to use G-spot toys (specifically dildos) by reviewers and consumers.  Many of them state that toys with a very exaggerated curve, like the Pure Wand, make it hard for them to thrust the toy deeply into their vagina.  They are exactly right.  This is because G-spot toys are not supposed to go much deeper than 2-3 inches inside the vagina.  For most women, the G-spot is only 1-2 inches deep.  So deep thrusting would actually miss the G-spot entirely.  Consequently, for the many women who have tried G-spot curved toys and think they are not working for them because they can’t use them for deep thrusting, I want to clarify that this is not how the toy is intended to be used.  Sure, short, hard thrusting can work well, once the G-spot is warmed up and fully aroused, but massaging, rubbing and rocking with the toy will work much better for hitting and pleasuring the G-spot.  The Pure Wand, again, is perfectly ergonomically designed to “rock” up and down against the G-spot in a pounding, rubbing movement and is only good for short (1-3 inch) thrusts.  Also, its natural weight (24 ounces) makes it easy to use in this motion with its own momentum.

So, stop trying to reach your cervix with a G-spot toy or you will definitely never find that “elusive” spot!  And, I don’t say that to be saucy.  I say it because I do want women to discover their G-spots and realize the pleasure that G-spot orgasms and female ejaculation can bring.  Maybe I should do I work shop on how to use G-spot toys!

Okay.  I have almost every type of high quality G-spot toy ever made.  How does the Pure Wand compare?  It doesn’t.  Seriously, the Pure Wand is in a category all by itself.  It is the ultimate G-spot wonder toy and is the best G-spot toy I have ever used.  It is indeed worthy of all the hype.  It took me less than two minutes to squirt and have crazy body-quaking G-spot amazing O’s with the Pure Wand.  I also loved the cool feeling of the metal against my vulva and once inserted.  The Pure Wand is excellent for temperature play.  Some women will not like the cold feeling, which is not a problem as you can heat it up with very warm water before play as well.  Finally, the medical grade stainless steel is hypo-allergenic, non-porous and can be easily sterilized in boiling water if you plan to share it with your friends-with-benefits.  The Pure Wand comes in a sexy black box with hot pink satin lining, so also makes an ideal gift.

treasure of the sea

My favorite Kama Sutra product is not actually a sexuality product at all.  It is Treasure of the Sea, a bath and body product, which certainly can be used together by couples in the bathtub, or will make you feel pretty sexy afterwards.

Kama Sutra’s Treasure of the Sea is a luxurious scented bath salt enriched with a blend of organic ingredients derived from dulse, kelp, sea salts and mineral oils. The bath salts come in a nice plastic tin for storage with ancient Indian-styled images of mermaids swimming through the sea. The tin contains 24.6 oz (500g) of ocean blue bath salts and a seashell scoop.

My partner and I love to share a bath together. It is a sensual time for both of us to relax and wash away the stress of the day.  Until I purchased Treasure of the Sea we used Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate) in our bath to soothe our tired muscles, which we always loved.  But, Treasure of the Sea is so much better than just sea salts alone.

sexy bath products

You only need ½-1 scoop for a full size 6 foot bathtub which will turn your tub water into the color of a tropical sea, with foamy suds floating on top as a sensual, fresh aroma fills the bathroom. We use the salts about 3 times a week and a tub lasts us about two months, so pretty good value.  Magnesium sulphate, one of the ingredients of Treasure of the Sea, is used in flotation therapy which makes the body more buoyant, so you feel the weight of your limbs and body floating away.  It soothes the muscles leaving you wonderfully relaxed and your skin silky soft and sensual.  It is a must have Kama Sutra product and one of the only products I buy on a regular basis and hate to run out of.  Taking a bath without it, just isn’t the same.

Treasure of the Sea-like many of the Kama Sutra products-is designed to enhance sensual awareness and encourage intimacy. Together with other Kama Sutra products like the Oil of Love, Honey Dust or the Weekender Kit, Treasure of the Sea is a great start to a night of intimacy, pampering and sensual sex. Both my partner and I love this product and use it for a tropical get-away as near as our tub.  Which reminds me-bath night tonight!

nippleclamps1

Breasts and nipples are my favorite parts of the female anatomy because they are so fun to play.  It is very hot playfully torturing a pair of breasts and watching them respond with pleasure, as your play partner moans and squeals with abandon.

Nipple clamps are a great way to add breast play into your play routine, and they work well on men and women, provided your partner enjoys nipple stimulation.  Most women enjoy having their breasts played with and many men have sensitive nipples as well.

There are several types of nipple clamps, from the very simple clothespins to elaborately styled Japanese Clover Clamps, as well as one with weights and jewelry.   For the purposes of this review I want to compare the three main types.

Tweezer Clamps

tweezerclamps

Tweezer Clamps are the cheapest and usually the most popular with novices who haven’t used nipple clamps before.  They are shaped like tweezers, as their name suggests, and are long and thin with an adjustable tension ring that you slide closer to the end to tighten around the nipples.  This type may be a bit confusing to use at first as some people try to place the nipples between the pincher ends, rather than in the wider space where they are supposed to go.  Don’t do this.  It can be very painful, as I’ve learned from experience.  These types of clamps are also a bit finicky to put on and adjust if you are a bit clumsy or have larger fingers.  I actually do not recommend these for beginners even though they are cheaper because they are the most difficult to use, and if you are not carefully, you can slide the rings to tight and pinch the nipples in them, which really hurts.

Clover Clamps

cloverclamps

Japanese Clover Clamps are not for novice use and are popular in the s/m scene for pain play.  These clamps have an elaborate mechanism of arms that look like little vice grips and tighten slowly around the nipple with weight or light tugging adding increased pressure.  They are larger and heavier than ordinary nipple clamps, and therefore tighten around the nipples just from their own weight.  The pressure they apply is from strong to extreme which is why I’d only recommend these for serious pain sluts.  I am a bit of a masochist and can’t stand these on myself for more than a minute, although I have very sensitive nipples.  Clover Clamps feature gripper pads which helps them stay fixed to the nipples.  Luckily, they unclamp very easily by just pressing the two sides of the clamps to release.

Bull Nose Clamps

nippleclamps2

Bull Nose Nipple Clamps fall in the middle price range between the other two clamps.  To use another tool analogy, these are more like adjustable pliers that feature a screw that can fine-tune the pressure of the clamps, to get the perfect amount of tension between pleasure and pain.  These are my favorite type of nipple clamps because you have control over how much pressure you apply, and the dominant person in play (IMHO) should always be in control.  They are also easy to use, which is why I would recommend them for novices.

Using Nipple Clamps

I wish someone had told me the proper way to use nipple clamps before I had tried them on my first victim long ago.  Many people think they should go on the nipples themselves, but I find they are much more effective if you pinch as much of the areola between them that you can.  You would think that the more flesh you clamp, the more painful it would be, but this is actually the opposite.  The areola can stand more pressure than the nipples themselves, so you can actually make them a bit tighter and leave them on longer.  The longer you can leave them, the more time to play.  So the closer you apply clamps to the end of the nipples, the more they are going to hurt; the closer to the base and areola, the more tolerable and pleasurable they become.  I believe that the right amount of tension between pleasure and pain makes them the most effective.  That way, when you tug on them, your partner will experience more pain and when you release they will experience more pleasure.  So to me, it is a playful balancing act between the two, where you vary sensations for optimum effect.

The Warm Up

So don’t just slap those clamps on before your play with the breast/chest and nipples of your partner first in a little warm-up.  As with every type of pain play, a warm-up increases endorphins and pleasure, which allows for increased force, pressure and pain.  So you can suck, lick, bite and pinch the nipples, as well as squeeze, pinch and slap the breasts to warm them up.

Applying Nipple Clamps

After the warm-up, I like to grasp the nipples between my thumb and the knuckle of my pointer finger and tug.  I try to grab as much flesh as I can, then place it between the clamps and slowly adjust until I get the right reaction from my partner that tells me they are experiencing pleasure, yet discomfort.  Repeat with the other nipple, and now you are ready to play.

Playing with Nipple Clamps

Most nipple clamps come with a chain that affixes the two clamps together.  You can tug on the chain to increase pressure and lead your partner around by their nipples.  You can also get you partner to hold the chain between their teeth to expose the underside of the breasts for light percussion play.  Depending on how tight you have the clamps, depends on how long you can leave them on, just like any other types of bondage or restriction.  It is important to watch the nipples for changes in color (you normally don’t want them to turn purple), and also feel them for temperature.  Nipple clamps constrict the blow flow to the nipples, so it is important no to leave them on too long if they are tight.

The best part about nipple clamps is removing them, for as the blood rushes back to the nipples, the nerves come back to life and this is when your partner will experience the most pain.  This pain is only temporary and will subside as the nipples become very sensitive, which make them much more fun to pain with.  The rest I will leave to your imagination!
