How to Use a Male Masturbator

Using your hand for some quality solo time is nice and all, but sometimes, you just crave that extra bit of stimulation. To satisfy it, men tend to get, well… creative. 

You’ve likely heard all about the DIY stuff guys do to imitate sex. From foam-stuffed empty Pringles cans and rolled towels to apple pies and squids (yes, it’s a thing), a desperate male is willing to do anything to simulate intercourse or blowjob. 

And sure, some of these DIY pocket pussies can feel surprisingly realistic. 

For the most realistic experience, however, investing in a quality male masturbator will come in handy (pun intended). Here’s a quick guide on how to use one. But first…

An Introduction to Male Masturbators

Before we get our hands dirty, let’s specify what we mean by a male masturbator. 

You might’ve heard some call them pocket pussies, penis strokers, or Fleshlight. All these names refer to the same masturbation toy shaped like a tube or flashlight with two ends - one closed and one with a hole for a penis. 

Now, depending on the type and quality of the toy, that holed end can resemble female (or male) body parts, usually, a vagina or butt. Some penis strokers, however, don’t resemble any part of human anatomy, ending with a round hole into which you insert a penis. 

They can also come in different shapes or sizes, but the purpose remains the same - provide much more realistic and intense cock-stroking sensations. 

How to Use a Male Masturbator: The Basics

Okay, let’s get started, shall we? Dim the lights, light some candles, and grab your penis stroker. It’s showtime.

Step 1: Lube Everything 

No lube no party. And it’s not just the sensations we’re talking about here, but also the well-being of your pecker. 

Unlike a real vagina, pocket pussies don’t have self-lubricating properties. Going in the dry could therefore be… painful. So yes. Our recommendation is to lube yourself and your toy up before starting the show. 

Just be sure to use a water-based lubricant. Such lubes are the most sex toy-friendly, plus they offer the most realistic feeling while being easy to clean. 

Oh, and don’t skimp on lube. 

When using sex toys, there’s no such thing as too much lubricant. 

Step 2: Slide In

With the pocket pussy juicy and your penis hard and shining with lube, it’s time to get to work and slide in. Slowly insert your penis into your masturbator. Don’t rush, take your time to figure out the texture, thickness, and suction. 

Step 3: Find Your Rhythm

As you get adjusted to the feeling of a masturbator wrapped around your pecker, it’s time to let yourself go and enjoy your wank. 

When it comes to that, you have two options - hands-on or hands-free:

• Hands-on wank: Grab the masturbator and stroke it up and down your penis, just like masturbating with a hand. 
• Hands-free wank: Stick your masturbator into a wrapped pillow or piece of furniture and enjoy yourself just like you would during intercourse. Some strokers even come with suction cups that you can attach under the shower. 

Which option is better? It depends on what you’re looking for. 

If you prefer to have more control over your wank, a hands-on approach grants that, allowing you to adjust the speed and pressure of your stroke. Going the hands-free route, on the other hand, is more realistic. 

Extra Tips for More Intense Sensations

So yes, using a male masturbator doesn’t require expert knowledge of quantum physics. Penis strokers were designed for ease of use, and that’s one of their greatest strengths. 

However, while their concept is incredibly simple, there are numerous ways to elevate the sensations male masturbators provide. Here are some of our favorite tips for a more intense experience when using a penis stroker:

• Add more toys into the mix: Sex toys work best when used in tandem. The story is no different for penis strokers. The next time you’ll be using your pocket pussy, throw another toy into the mix. A cock ring or prostate massager, for instance. 
• Sharing is caring: Penis strokers don’t have to be used only for solo masturbation. Invite your partner to join the fun. You can, for instance, introduce a pocket pussy to your foreplay and use it on yourself as you go down on your partner. 
• Try different positions: The beauty of male masturbators is that you can use them in all types of positions. Switch it up, experiment with angles, and use your surroundings for a more realistic and intense experience. 

Cleaning Your Penis Stroker

All good things come to an end. The same is with using your male masturbator. Once you’re finished with your toy, however, it’s time to clean it. 

To do that, use warm water to pour through your pocket pussy. 

If possible, remove the sleeve from the case before cleaning it. Unless it’s mild, the best idea is to avoid using soap as it might destroy the textured material the insides of the toy are made of. Just use water or buy a cleaner designed for sex toys. 

Once clean, make sure your pocket pussy is dry before putting it back in the box. Otherwise, the mold might build up, which isn’t necessarily hygienic, pleasant, or safe. 

Remember to clean your toy regularly after each use and store it in a dark and dry place. This way, you can ensure your pocket pussy will serve you for years, becoming the indispensable companion of your wanking shenanigans.
