Buns of Steel: Using Stainless Steel Sex Toys for Anal
Stainless steel, a material often associated with household items, can also play an essential role in the manufacturing of sex toys. With its innate characteristics, stainless steel offers a safe and effective solution for sex toys, providing longevity, complete sterilization capabilities, and compatibility for multiple users, thus positioning it as a desirable material for such products.
However, this doesn't advocate for haphazard usage of any stainless steel objects as sex toys - such as kitchen faucets. The design and manufacturing process of these toys, which ensures bodily safety and pleasure, are of prime importance.
UNRAVELING THE APPEAL OF STAINLESS STEEL
Why opt for stainless steel when a plethora of sex toy materials exists? The answer could simply be individual preference or a quest for experimentation. Whether you enjoy the unique features of stainless steel or are keen to explore something new, the material's characteristics of Heaviness, Hygiene, and Hardness (the three H's) might appeal to you.
Heaviness
The weight of a stainless steel sex toy is quite remarkable, potentially doubling as a makeshift dumbbell or even a weapon, if necessary. Its heft imparts a unique, blunt pressure, working in favor of gravity, and upon insertion, it simplifies the user's task. A subtle shift in position and gravity ensures that the weight of the toy stimulates the body's erogenous zones naturally.
Hygiene
Stainless steel sex toys present an advantage in terms of hygiene since they can be entirely sterilized. Owing to their non-porous nature, germs find no place to thrive, thus ensuring safety when shared among partners. Even after thorough cleaning, toys made from porous materials can harbor bacteria and germs, posing a potential risk of transference. Stainless steel, particularly of high quality, serves as an excellent option for those with sensitive skin.
Cleaning a stainless steel sex toy is straightforward. It can be rinsed thoroughly with warm water and antibacterial soap, placed in a dishwasher sans detergent or other items, or boiled for about three minutes. These methods effectively sanitize stainless steel.
Hardness
In terms of hardness, stainless steel sex toys remain unparalleled. The material's slick surface contributes to an ultra-smooth tactile sensation, providing a frictionless experience when used with lube. Stainless steel toys are compatible with any type of lube and can last a lifetime, making them a sustainable, albeit humorous, family heirloom!
MASTERING THE ART OF TEMPERATURE PLAY
Stainless steel sex toys' unique ability to adapt to different temperatures offers a range of sensations not readily achievable with other materials. Even though glass sex toys can also be used for temperature play, stainless steel appears to excel in this domain.
Temperature-based sexual play provokes arousal in the skin's neuroreceptors, particularly pleasurable on erogenous zones like the neck, scalp, buttocks, inner arm, lower back, and genitals. Those who experience discomfort or inflammation during penetration can also benefit from chilled stainless steel toys.
While exploring temperature play, it's crucial to maintain safety, especially when the toys are intended for sensitive areas like the anus and genitals. The toy's temperature should ideally be modified by 15 to 25 degrees F. The following are effective methods to alter a toy's temperature.
Cold Sex Play
For chilling your stainless steel sex toys, fill a bowl, glass, or ice bucket with cold water and ice. Submerge your toy for 10 to 20 seconds, wipe it dry with a towel, and test the toy on your wrist before moving to more sensitive areas. If you desire more chill, add more ice and increase submersion time. To maintain the cold sensation, keep the ice-water setup close and repeat as needed.
Although freezing stainless steel sex toys may seem appealing, caution is advised. Just as your tongue can stick to a frozen post during winter, we don't want similar incidents happening with your delicate areas.
Hot Sex Play
Start by heating your toy to body temperature (96 degrees F) and gradually increase the heat from there. Safety remains paramount, so it's best to start low. To heat your toy, submerge it in hot water for 10 to 15 seconds, akin to the cooling process. An electric kettle can be handy when heating the water to maintain better temperature control.
Just like cold temperature play, it is recommended to test the toy on your wrist before heading to more sensitive regions. If you wish for it to be warmer, you can adjust the water's temperature and modify the toy's submersion duration.
