Gorgeous Dildos at (Temporarily) Discounted Prices!

Kate Sloan
The Uberrime Night King (pink/red), Amante (blue), and Senos (green)

The other night, in the middle of sex, my boyfriend and I opened one of the storage drawers under my bed and started looking for a dildo he could fuck me with. He picked up the Uberrime Senos and said, “Is this the one I fucked you with last time?”

I shook my head and pointed at the Uberrime Amante, saying, “No, that was this one.”

Eventually we settled on the Uberrime Night King, a long-time favorite of mine – and I subsequently came all over it so hard that I burst into cathartic tears. Damn, that’s a good dildo! (Helps that a cute person with strong arms was wielding it, of course…!)

I’m telling you this story because it perfectly illustrates how much I adore the sex toy company Uberrime. This weekend only, they’re having a sale where everything is 15% off, including both custom and ready-made toys. Just use the code SUMMER15 and you’re good to go!

But of course, I’m not expecting you to fend for yourself, throwing dildos into your cart indiscriminately (although you could…) – here are my current top picks from the extensive Uberrime catalogue!

I mentioned the Night King already (it’s the one my boyfriend recently railed me with…) but it bears repeating: this is a bloody excellent dildo. I actually own two of them, one in blue and grey and one in a stunning “lovecore”-inspired red and pink colorway. It’s one of the best toys I’ve ever found for A-spot stimulation, due to its unusually generous length (8″ insertable), upward curve, and slightly tapered tip. But it doesn’t just pleasure my A-spot – the ripply texture along its shaft massages my vaginal walls, and its stark coronal ridge feels great on my G-spot when thrusted more shallowly.

There are many Uberrime toys which excel in a strap-on harness, but the Night King is the one I’ve been fucked with the most, by far. Its formidable length allows partners to hit my A-spot with it, regardless of what position we’re in or what kind of harness they have on, while leaving enough space between our bodies for me to use a clitoral vibe so I can get off. It’s pretty ideal; I’m kind of obsessed with it!

Speaking of A-spot toys, I’m drooling just looking at the Aptus, a dildo designed expressly for that purpose. I’ve always gotten the sense from Uberrime that they take user feedback into account constantly, and this feels like the kind of dildo one could only create if one either liked A-spot stimulation oneself, or had listened carefully to the commentary of people who do. It’s got the exact kind of curve and tapering that a great A-spot toy requires, and just like the Night King above, it boasts 8 inches of insertable length, so it’ll be able to reach that spot regardless of where you are in your arousal cycle and/or menstrual cycle. Damn… Might’ve talked myself into buying one 😂

I was pleasantly surprised by the Fingo clit grinder, which Uberrime sent me a while back. I don’t really consider my clit large enough to be able to penetrate anything, even when it’s hard, but I do enjoy a BJ-esque suction technique when receiving oral, so I’d wondered if I might like a toy that surrounds my clit similarly to how a mouth can. Once I got myself turned on and lubed up the Fingo, I enjoyed ‘fucking’ in and out of it with my clit. I don’t think I could get off that way, but it was a fun, pleasurable tease! I’d be curious to know what a transmasculine person would think of this one – I imagine it’d be too small for some T-dicks, but might work really well for others.

The Astra looks like the perfect strap-on-compatible dildo with which to fuck someone who likes G-spot or prostate stimulation. That elongated, flat head would massage either of those spots beautifully, especially if you choose one of the firmer silicone formulations Uberrime offers. Many strap-on sex connoisseurs will love the wide variety of color options available, too – your strap-on setup is part of your sexual self-expression, so it should be something you feel sexy in, whether you go with bright red, plain black, a realistic skin tone, or a loud color combo that makes your heart sing.

Speaking of interesting color options, I love that Uberrime makes packers in various eclectic colors, not just skin tones. If your gender feels more expansive than the typical binary allows for, you might well want a technicolor dick – like maybe the Uberrime Esse packer in a bold red-yellow swirl, or a unicorny candy-floss gradient. Cute!

I’ve enjoyed the Suavis vaginal plug, but am currently curious about this one, the Sensi. It looks like it would press against my G-spot effortlessly once inserted, which is exactly what I’m craving when I reach for a vaginal plug (my go-to is the Hole Punch Fluke, FYI!). This type of toy pairs excellently with oral sex; it’s a lot easier for me to get off from someone going down on me when my G-spot is being automatically massaged every time my internal muscles clench!

Well, there you have it – my top picks from Uberrime. Don’t forget to use the code SUMMER15 to get 15% off your order, this weekend only! And why not pick a weird color you wouldn’t normally get? Life’s too short for boring dildos, if you ask me!

6 hot ways to use the Hole Punch Fluke (which is on sale right now!!)

Kate Sloan

The Hole Punch Fluke is one of my all-time favorite sex toys. In fact, if you told me I was being banished to a desert island and could only take 5 toys with me (you sadistic monster!), here’s what I’d bring, assuming said island had power outlets…

  1. The Eroscillator Top Deluxe, for the best and most consistent clitoral orgasms.
  2. The Magic Wand Rechargeable, for pleasuring all kinds of genitals and massaging sore muscles (actually, maybe the Waterproof would be better for the desert island lifestyle…).
  3. The Fucking Sculptures Double Trouble, because if I have to be marooned at sea then I might as well be able to fuck the shit out of my A-spot and come really hard.
  4. The Njoy Pure Wand, because it’s a G-spot whisperer and reliably induces squirting, which would make it useful for tension relief while I’m stressed out of my mind, foraging to survive on an island. (Am I taking this question too literally?!)
  5. …and finally, the almighty Hole Punch Fluke. Nothing else in my collection is quite like it.

I noticed recently that the Fluke is on clearance sale at SheVibe, currently marked down from $67 to $54 – so it felt like a good time to tell you about some of the many ways you can use this wonderful toy, since I want to tempt as many people as possible to add one to their collection! It really is that good. This deal won’t last, so I highly suggest picking one up while you can! Here are some things you can do with it…

1. Wear it vaginally during masturbation. I often joke that the Fluke is a great toy for lazy masturbators, which is true – once inserted, it presses firmly against my G-spot with zero effort on my part, so there’s no need to bother with thrusting. That being said, laziness isn’t the only reason someone might want a toy like this – folks with disabilities or chronic pain, like myself, might also find the Fluke useful. On a bad flare-up day, I hate having to decide between honoring my body’s limits and stroking the fuck outta my G-spot – and with the Fluke, I don’t have to choose. It significantly intensifies my solo orgasms without me having to do much of anything.

2. Wear it anally during masturbation. Yep, you can do that too! I don’t use my Fluke anally because its 2″ diameter exceeds my current anal ambitions, but its flared head is so perf for G-spot stimulation that I have to assume it’d hit the prostate equally well – or, less directly, the G-spot through the vaginal wall.

3. Wear it while receiving oral sex. Quite possibly my favorite usage! Coordinating oral sex with fingerbanging can be tricky for even the deftest casanovas, but when the Fluke is inserted, it handles the internal stimulation so my partner can focus fully on external stimulation. This makes it a lot easier for me to reach orgasm from oral, which can otherwise be elusive for me – and the orgasms are extra intense because the Fluke presses so firmly against my G-spot. Once in a while, it even makes me squirt, hands-free!

4. Wear it for a while as warm-up. Sometimes my partner will have me insert a plug like the Fluke, either vaginally or anally, an hour or so before sex. It’s not the most comfortable choice for long-term wear, so I wouldn’t recommend it for public play, especially if you’ll be walking around – but it can be fun to slip it in before watching some porn together or somesuch, and it may help relax your hole enough to make any subsequent penetration easier/comfier.

5. Wear it during a spanking or other sadomasochistic scene. Due to subspace and other factors, I’m not always consciously aware of how turned on I’m getting during a spanking unless someone points it out to me – and similarly, the Fluke’s presence makes me achingly aware of each time my cunt clenches in arousal, which helps build more arousal, like a horny feedback loop. Plus it probably looks hot from my partner’s perspective…

6. Wear it as part of a chastity or denial roleplay. While this isn’t necessarily my jam (at least not as a bottom/sub), I can see how it could be fun to use the Fluke as a sort of barricade to your vag or butt – preventing you from getting fucked there and/or denying someone else the ability to fuck you there. The toy itself is still plenty stimulating though, as we’ve discussed, so it’s not like you’re being denied that much – it’s more about the psychological experience of it. Actually, I bet some people could even come hands-free just from squeezing around the Fluke, if they really put their mind to it!

Well, I know what toy I’ll be using tonight… If I’ve piqued your interest, here’s the link to go get a Fluke of your own at a deliciously discounted price! I’ve recommended this fantastic toy to countless people over the years, and that’s no fluke. 😉

Fun Factory’s Having a MASSIVE Sale! Here’s What I Recommend…

Kate Sloan

On August 15th – that’s this coming Monday – legendary German sex toy brand Fun Factory is having a HUGE sale to celebrate their birthday: 40% off any toy!!

They are truly one of the best sex toy brands on the market, and have been for the entire time I’ve been in this industry, so this is very exciting. I thought I’d put together a guide to my favorite Fun Factory items so you can decide what you want to snap up in the sale on Monday! (Set yourself a calendar alert if need be…)

 

All images in this post courtesy of Fun Factory

A brilliantly-designed beginner-friendly butt plug: Fun Factory Bootie

Price before the sale: $34.99 (small size), $39.99 (medium size), $44.99 (large size)
Price during the sale: $20.99 (small size), $23.99 (medium size), $26.99 (large size)

The Bootie is one of the plugs I often recommend for people who are curious about anal play but are also intimidated by it. That’s an understandable way to feel – butt stuff can be challenging and uncomfortable, and comes with a whole host of psychological and sociocultural taboos to work through – so I’m glad Fun Factory makes this approachable little plug.

The curved base is super comfy, to the point that you could wear this plug while out and about and you’d be fine (although you might need to re-lube in a public bathroom at some point).

The smallest size maxes out at 1.06″ in diameter – that’s pretty dang small. If you find that you like the prostate-targeting curve of this plug, you can always upgrade to one of the two larger sizes sometime down the road. Hell, maybe you’ll even want to own all three someday – different butt plugs for different moods!

 

A gay-as-heck dildo: Fun Factory Rainbow Amor (read my review here) (also one time I did a makeup tutorial inspired by this dildo)

Price before the sale: $44.99
Price during the sale: $26.99

I mean, what can I say? It’s a rainbow dildo. Just looking at it fills my heart with glee.

This queer-looking silicone cutie isn’t available year-round, so if you love the look of it, I’d suggest snapping one up tout suite. It’s kind of an unusual dildo in terms of shape and size: it’s on the shorter side, with just 4.72″ of insertable length, but has a medium girth of 1.46″. I like that Fun Factory offers this smaller dildo, in contrast to their chonky Big Boss; not everyone is a size queen/king/monarch!

The gentle curve, subtle “coronal ridge” and suction-cup base of this dildo all make it useful for hitting the G-spot or prostate, whether you’re alone or with a partner. And despite the fact that strap-on harnesses usually shorten a dildo’s useable length by about an inch, this one’s base is quite slim, so you can use it for strap-on play even despite its short stature. Get your gay on, y’all.

 

A magnificent vibrator for penises: Fun Factory Manta (read my spouse’s review here)

Price before the sale: $139.99
Price during the sale: $83.99

I’m thrilled that the category of penis vibrators – and penis toys in general – has expanded so much in recent years, spearheaded in large part by Fun Factory themselves.

The Manta is one of my absolute favorites to use on my partner, or to watch them use during FaceTime calls (#LongDistanceLyfe). It has two silicone “wings” that wrap around the shaft of your dick (pretty much regardless of what size it is!), creating a surround-sound sensation. You can stroke the toy up and down or just hold it in one spot – whatever feels best to you.

Notably, this toy works brilliantly for partnered play as well as solo sex. I think some of my partner’s most intense orgasms have happened while my mouth was on the head of their dick and this toy was working the lower shaft. Truly a genius product that I am constantly raving about to my penis-possessing friends.

 

A super-satisfying self-thrusting sex toy: Fun Factory Stronic Real (read my review here)

Price before the sale: $169.99
Price during the sale: $101.99

Look, I’m lazy. I also have hand strength issues and chronic fatigue due to fibromyalgia. All of this adds up to me sometimes not being able to thrust dildos as fast, hard, or consistently as I’d prefer.

But that’s when I reach for a self-thrusting toy like the Stronic Real. Now, let’s be clear: many toys that claim to “thrust,” including this one, are really doing something more akin to jiggling back and forth a tiny amount. But, in practice, this can feel like thrusting –very targeted and precise thrusting. If you position one of these toys so that it’s making consistent contact with your G-spot or A-spot, it’ll keep ploughing into that spot over and over again, in a way that (for me at least) can enable intense orgasms and, frequently, squirting.

You do have to anchor the base of the toy against something, like a pillow placed between your legs, to keep it from wiggling its way out of you. But I don’t mind doing that in exchange for the ease and reliability of these toys. All of the Stronic products I’ve tried are great, but I particularly like the Real because it gets in deep, hitting my A-spot again and again in a way I previously thought only a partner’s deft fingers could accomplish.

 

An ultra-versatile finger vibrator: Fun Factory Be-One (read my review here)

Price before the sale: $69.99
Price during the sale: $41.99

A common refrain amongst couples shopping for their first sex toy together is that they want something unobtrusive – something that melds seamlessly into sex so that it feels almost like part of their bodies, rather than being a mechanical interloper into their intimate lives. Something like the Be-One is ideal for this: it’s easy to hold, easy to maneuver, and easy to use – even when you’re, uh, a little distracted.

I’ve also recommended the Be-One before as a good choice for folks who, like me, struggle with hand pain or hand strength issues. Holding it between your fingers is a cinch; I can manage it even on days when I can barely hold my phone comfortably.

The motor in this toy isn’t as rumbly or powerful as I generally expect from Fun Factory, but I think it’ll work fine for more sensitive users. It’s also a fun addition to a handjob or fingering.

 

A phenomenal prostate massager: Fun Factory Duke

Price before the sale: $99.99
Price during the sale: $59.99

I haven’t personally tried this whimsically-shaped anal vibrator, but fellow GQ writer Zachary Zane says it “leads to incredibly powerful orgasms,” and I believe it.

The Duke delves deeper into your butt than many other plugs (at least, many of the ones available from mainstream, non-fetish and non-specialty sex toy companies), and also rumbles against your prostate and perineum simultaneously. Gotta love a multitasker!

Fun Factory recommends that you “wear it during partner sex for toe-curling sensation,” which kinda makes me wish I had a prostate.

 

A wonderfully weird dildo: Fun Factory Bouncer (read my review here)

Price before the sale: $99.99
Price during the sale: $59.99

You know how some Kegel balls have little weights inside them that roll around whenever you move? Well, Fun Factory made a dildo that has that same feature. Every time you thrust it in or out, the weighted balls inside it bounce around. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about this, but it’s wild how it actually makes each thrust feel more impactful and just adds another layer of sensation to the familiar feeling of being fucked with a dildo.

I also love the gently rippled texture of this toy, and the fact that it’s harness-compatible so a partner can strap it on and then fuck me with their bouncy dick. All in all, this toy is a delight.

 

What are your fave Fun Factory products?

 

This post was sponsored, but I really do love Fun Factory (as years’ worth of reviews have made very clear, lol). As always, all writing and opinions are my own.

The Best Sex Gifts to Buy This Black Friday

Kate Sloan

If you’re anything like me, you’re probably scrambling to find holiday gifts for your loved ones right about now. “How is it the end of November already?!” you’re screeching. “I’m not ready!!”

Well, good news: I’ve assembled some of my favorite gift-worthy sex products into one post, so you can make informed decisions and support rad sex shops while also getting great gifts for people you adore. It’s a win-win-win!

 

For cunnilingus aficionados

I’m talking here about people who love receiving cunnilingus… People who love giving cunnilingus might want a sex doll instead! (I’m only half-joking…)

“Pressure-wave” toys use rhythmic bursts of air to create “touchless” stimulation of the clitoris that can feel quite a bit like oral sex for some people. For Cyber Week, my pals at Peepshow Toys are offering two of the most popular pressure-wave toys at uncommonly low prices. The Satisfyer Curvy 3+ is an elegant and discreet toy that normally goes for $60 but is on sale currently for just $29 (no code needed); it’s remotely controllable via Satisfyer’s smartphone app, and also optionally combines vibration with its pressure waves.

If you want something similar but without all the bells and whistles, the Satisfyer Pro 2 is a classic. It’s waterproof, too, making it an ideal bathtime companion. You can grab it for just $30 this week (no code needed).

 

For adventurous fans of penile pleasure

Vibrators for penises were super uncommon just a few years ago, but the industry is finally starting to provide supply for that particular demand. The Hot Octopuss Pulse Solo is consistently one of the best-reviewed dick vibes on the market. This week, you can grab it at Peepshow for just $120 (no code needed), and they’ll even throw in a bottle of lube.

My other favorite penis vibe, the Fun Factory Manta, is on sale this week too. It’s a flexible silicone vibrator that combines well with handjobs and blowjobs or can be used on its own for focused frenulum pleasure. Normally $140, you can use the coupon code “BEACH” to get 20% off your order, bringing the price down to just $112.

 

For strap-on enthusiasts

My all-time favorite harness for strap-on play, the Aslan Leather Jaguar, is delightfully discounted right now! I love its classically kinky aesthetic, and the amount of control you get with it when the straps are properly tightened and adjusted. Use the code “BEACH” to get 10% off this handmade stunner, bringing its price down to just $86 (a pretty unheard-of price for this particular harness).

The Vixen Creations Mustang is a comfortably squishy realistic dildo that I’d heartily recommend to any strap-on beginner, so long as its size works for their partner(s). It’s usually $106, but right now you can use the code “BEACH” to grab it for only $90. Score!

 

For A-spot explorers

Fans of deep penetration ought to appreciate the lengthy (not to mention beautiful) Uberrime Night King. It’s one of my favorite dildos for hitting one of my favorite spots, and right now it’s going for just $102 with the code “BEACH.”

I’d also be remiss not to mention the formidable Njoy Eleven, which hits my A-spot so well and so hard that orgasms with it frequently make me cry. If you’ve been holding out for a good deal on one, this might be the time: it normally costs a cool $400 but right now you can use the code “BEACH” to get it for $300 instead.

 

For people who love having their balls played with

As you might recall, I’m a big fan of the Balldo, an innovative product that basically turns your balls into a dildo, with which you can fuck your partner. (Read my review here.) If you choose to buy this for someone, it’s nearly guaranteed they won’t have heard of it, and you might just blow their mind – especially if they end up having a “ballgasm”! Give it to someone who adores ball stimulation and/or someone who always likes to try whatever weird new thing everyone is talking about!

For someone who’s curious about the potential pleasures of vibration on their balls – or the surrounding area, including the perineum – I’d recommend the Dame Pom. It has a powerful motor and a comfortable shape for nestling into the palm of your hand and cupping against those sensitive bits during masturbation, a blowjob, a handjob, or even PIV (if your arms are flexible enough!).

 

For kinky fuckers

One of the easiest ways to start incorporating bondage into your sex life is to get yourself a Sportsheets Under-the-Bed Restraints set. All you have to do is slide its straps under your mattress, attach the included wrist and ankle cuffs, and you’re good to go! This version of the set also comes with a blindfold for added excitement. You can get the whole shebang for just $68 with the code “BEACH.”

Sadomasochists may want to pick up a Kinklab Neon Wand electrosex kit this holiday season. Electrostimulation is a truly unique type of pain, and this kit comes with several different attachments so you can try out a variety of sensations. Normally $146, you can get the whole set for $117 with the code “BEACH.”

If someone in your life is kink-curious but not sure where to start, you could give them a copy of my book, 101 Kinky Things Even You Can Do! It’s a fantastic jumping-off point for people whose sexual tastes veer onto the road less traveled.

What Sex Toys to Buy for Black Friday

Kate Sloan

It’s true that Black Friday is a problematic capitalist hellscape of a “holiday”… but it’s also true that in a year so full of struggle and pain, you deserve pleasure more than ever (and so do the people you love). With that in mind, here are my top picks for good deals on great toys this Black Friday/Cyber Monday!

I’m very curious about the Maia Piper, a rechargeable vibrating stroker with suction and heating functions. What will they think of next?! (20% off on Peepshow, no code needed)

We-Vibe’s thoughtfully-designed panty vibe, the Moxie, now comes in a sleek black colorway. Give it to someone who likes having a dirty little secret. (15% off at SheVibe with code Vibe15)

For someone with kids (or snooping in-laws):

The Gvibe Gbulb is… a vibrator shaped like a lightbulb?! I’m so confused/intrigued by this. Supposedly it’s as strong as a wand vibe?? It might be just the thing for someone whose sex toys need to be surreptitious! (20% off at Gvibe with code BW20)

 

 

For strap-on enthusiasts:

All SpareParts harnesses are 20% off on SheBop right now! They’re widely considered some of the best harnesses available, especially the legendary Joque, which you may have seen in many a queer porn scene. Their Sasha harness (pictured above) is also a gorgeous choice for folks who want to look/feel a bit more feminine while strapping on. (Shop at SheBop, no code needed)

If you prefer the kinky/edgy aesthetic of leather, you can get my harness of choice, the Aslan Leather Jaguar, at a dazzlingly discounted price right now! (20% off at Peepshow, no code needed)

 

For the non-binary cuties in your life:

ShopEnby carries some enby-related merch, including hats and stickers – so cute! They’re also a Black- and trans-owned company currently facing some aggravating legal troubles, so now would be a particularly wonderful time to support them.

While you’re at it, why not check out the gender expression gear section on Peepshow for gender-affirming stuff like packers, breastforms, and gaffs? (20% off at Peepshow, no code needed)

 

For exploring anal curiosities:

Did you know that Fun Factory’s legendary beginner-friendly butt plug, the Bootie, now comes in three different sizes?! It’s a smooth, comfy choice for someone looking to acclimatize themselves to anal stimulation. (20% off at SheBop, no code needed)

The Gvibe Gplug comes in two different sizes, and can be used with or without its vibrations turned on, making it a super versatile pick for butt-stuff beginners and beyond! (20% off at Gvibe with code BW20)

 

For A-spot explorers:

One of my favorite A-spot toys is on sale! The Uberrime Night King is a total stunner, and has both the length and the curve needed to reach and stimulate the anterior fornix. (20% off at Peepshow, no code needed)

The Tantus Tsunami, another long-time A-spot favorite of mine, is on sale too. These are pretty hard to find nowadays (I think this toy was discontinued a few years back) so you should snap one up if you’ve been curious! ($30 off at Peepshow, no code needed)

 

For penile pleasure:

All Tenga toys are on sale at SheBop right now, so you can grab some dick-focused delights like a Tenga Egg or a Flip Zero. (20% off at SheBop, no code needed)

Fun Factory toys are also on sale at SheBop, so if you or a loved one are curious about vibrators for penises, you could pick up either of the two great ones FF makes, the Manta or the Cobra Libre II! Having dated/hooked up with people who owned both of these toys, I can say from firsthand experience that they’re uniquely stimulating and beautifully constructed. (20% off at SheBop, no code needed)
