All About Fleshlights: What You Need to Know

The time for male sex toys has come. Women have known the joys of dildos and vibrators without much controversy for a fair few years now. Men, step up to the plate with the novel and discreet Fleshlight.

Male masturbators and sex toys have gotten a bad rap in years past. Seen as taboo, or weird, most guys just tend to take matters into their own hands. But why? Male masturbators come in all shapes and sizes and are really no more different or offending than a giant purple dildo. Especially when talking about fleshlights. Their ease of use and reserved packaging make them a man’s best friend. Move over, Fido.

What Are Fleshlights?

Fleshlights are made of a silicone or silicone-like material, that is molded into the shape of a sleeve. The material feels similar to flesh (i.e. the name “FLESHlight”). Most models have the realistic shape of a vagina, mouth, or anus at the insertion point. The internal sleeve is then shaped in many different ways, depending on the sensation that the user is looking for. The silicone sleeve is then inserted into a discreet container, something made to look like an everyday item. Flashlights, beer cans, and shampoo bottles are some industry favorites.

Why Are Fleshlights So Popular?

Fleshlights are popular because of their realistic feel, discreet packaging, and easy clean up. Many men report that using a fleshlight is incredibly similar to the sensation of actually having sex. They are easy to conceal, so they’re ideal for travel, or even to keep in a busy household. Because they look like a flashlight, you can easily store them with other tools or household items without anyone knowing they’re there! They also work as a sperm catchment device, so you don’t have to worry about messing up your gym socks or littering your house in used tissues.

How Do I Use a Fleshlight?

Fleshlights are incredibly easy to use. Many come with some type of lid that screws onto the top of the container that houses the sleeve. Take the lid off and add a small amount of lube into the sleeve and around the insertion piece. Glide the sleeve over an erect penis and get ready for the sensation of a lifetime.

Can You Clean a Fleshlight?

Absolutely! Fleshlights should be cleaned regularly after each use. This is easily achieved by removing the sleeve from the container and running hot water through it. Never use oil based lubes. Most companies that sell fleshlights also offer a specific cleaning agent called flesh spray (no, not the stuff used on burn victims). Use soap or other caustic substances only if your really have to, but generally, water does the trick. Leave it out of the case to air dry. You can also just wipe it down with a soft cloth that’s been soaked with hot water and wrung out well.

Where do I find a Fleshlight?

Fleshlights have become a staple of the sex toy world, so they can be found just about anywhere. The internet is usually a great go to if you don’t want to make a visit to your friendly neighborhood porn store. There are quite a few different sensation shapes for the internal sleeve, so have some fun and do a bit of research before you decide which model to go with.
