Pony Play Whip by Doc Johnson

Surprise, surprise! Doc Johnson makes things on the edgier side of kink.

When I saw these pony play "whips" years ago on Edenfantasys, I contemplated their purchase for a long time — as someone incredibly into pony play gear, they seemed a little off. Doc Johnson markets the plugs as dual-intended for flagellation purposes as well as for use as cute little pony plugs for wear, but I feel that these are better suited solely to people who are interested in low-priced options for pony play (certainly not for show ponies). As someone who doesn't have the money to spend on genuine horsehair plugs, I figured, "These will do, for now."

The disgusting plastic string.

Sadly, the smaller version (the one that isn't "royal," apparently) doesn't really cut it in that department. In fact, it hardly cuts it as an anal plug at all. The plugs are constructed with a rubber skin that is shaped into a traditional teardrop/arrowhead plug shape. On the end of each of the plugs are these wiry, plastic strings that are supposed to represent horsehair. How they could think that these plugs are good for pony play, I don't know — they aren't even the nice synthetic hair that you may see on some products (stuffed animals or wigs, to name a few).

On the note of material, there is this odd, hollow sensation when the plug is grabbed (this is not as prevalent with the regular Pony Play Whip). It almost feels like the core that holds the faux plastic string (I refuse to call it faux horsehair) was made too small, and as such, it sits away from the outer rubber skin. Very strange. Additionally, the scent of the plugs is horrendous. I keep them in a plastic bag, and it still does not really make the scent go away (I've had them for years, mind you, and they still smell just as terrible as they did when I got them). Since the plugs are rubber, they cannot be sanitized. Rubber is, sadly, porous, and as such can harbor bacteria and STDs. The safest best is to use a condom during use in the case of switching between partners (and it is also a good idea to keep from stored bacteria). Any regularly sized condom or toy cover would do with the plugs.

If you do choose to buy either one of the plugs from anywhere other than Edenfantasys (they are discontinued — I wonder why), keep in mind that storing the plugs is difficult due to the string. I have to hang the plug upside down just to keep the hair straight (I really should toss them at this point, they're more trouble than they're worth).

Pony Play Whip
The pony play whip is a sad excuse for both a plug and a whip. It doesn't really do either job very well. A plug is expected to do a few things: stay in during use, feel good, and be satisfying. This plug does none of those, and in fact becomes more frustrating than pleasurable. During wear, it consistently slips out due to the poor excuse for a neck. Because the neck is practically the same diameter as the largest point of the plug, it has no hope for staying in during wear. I do not know who designed this plug, but whoever did should seriously consider getting out of the sex toy business. Poor design all around.

As for the "whip" feature (which makes no sense because the name implies that it is for pony play), the plastic-y strings are not conducive for any form of whipping. Especially not when the plug has already frustrated the person who wore it. The last thing I would want to do is beat my girl with a whip when she's already uncomfortable because a plug simply wouldn't stay in, and I don't know who really would (unless you're that kind of sadistic, which I'm not). I'm still trying to figure out what the intent of this toy is — is it supposed to be a whip, is it supposed to be a tail?

Because it attempts to be too much, sadly, it fails on every single level. It isn't a whip. It isn't a pony tail. It is not even a plug. It is literally a waste of space and a waste of money. If you are still interested in purchasing this sad excuse for a toy, below are some of the specifications.

• 3 ¾" total insertable length
• 2 ½" plug length
• 3/8" diameter at thinnest point of plug
• 7/8" diameter at widest point of plug
• ¾" diameter at neck

Pony Play Whip Royal
The royal plug has a much better design than the regular plug, simply because it has an actual neck that works (the neck is not almost the same size as the plug itself, like the regular pony play plug). It has a teardrop design and a wide enough base to make it safe for use anally. This shape either works for you or it doesn't. Some people find it incredibly uncomfortable, while others thing that it is the best thing known to humankind. In my experiences, the pointed edge and slow taper does nothing but become uncomfortable over extended periods of time.

Which brings me to a problem with the Pony Play Whip Royal. It isn't really comfortable for extended wear. Perhaps I've been spoiled by nJoy plugs, but come on, it really could be a bit better. All of the weight of this type of shape plug is at the bottom, near the wearer's opening. While this does give a "full" feeling, it also can become really uncomfortable, really fast (almost feels like it will come out from what my partner said). However, that being said, it is still a huge improvement from the Pony Play Whip. The royal, at the very least, works as a plug. Below are some of the specifications for the Pony Play Whip Royal.

• 4 ¾" total insertable length
• 3 ½" plug length
• ½" diameter at thinnest point of plug
• 1 ½" diameter at widest point of plug
• ¾" diameter at neck

Candy Jaguar Cuffs by ASLAN Leather

I think that it's common knowledge that Aslan Leather makes excellent quality leather pieces. I have so many things made by them that it's almost hard to count. To add to my fairly large collection of their equipment, the Pink Candy Jaguar cuffs add a hint of sweetness yet retain the quality materials that Aslan Leather is known for. I cannot describe how happy I was when Edenfantasys sent these to me. I wouldn't have expected any less or any more—the cuffs are exactly as they should be.

The cuffs have two layers of leather that are of average thickness and an extremely thick buckle strap on the outside. They're flexible, durable, and well-made. With a total of seven rivets (double row surrounding the d-ring), the Candy Jaguar cuffs have no way of coming apart due to ripping or tearing. They're artfully made, and it shows in the stitching and care used to craft them. The edges of the leather are not finished by being folded over, but they are cut on a bias in order to have an aesthetically pleasing appearance. As much as I would have preferred the leather folded over, it would have been far too bulky. When the cuffs are first received, they are extremely stiff and inflexible, so keep this in mind when purchasing. It does cause them to be slightly difficult to adjust, but not so much that they are unusable. They will most likely take many uses to soften up, but over time, they will.

Lined with white leather and bearing a pink outer layer, the Candy Jaguar cuffs are simply adorable. If you've seen Aslan's Jaguar cuffs, then you know that they're very trim and straight-forward. They don't have any frills or accouterments on them, nothing added that may get in the way or distract from the sensation of wearing cuffs. Just thick leather against skin. But the thing that sets the Candy set (there is also a collar) apart from Aslan Leather's original Jaguar cuffs is that the leather is more plush. When comparing the thicknesses, you can see that the Candy Jaguar cuffs have a slightly thicker layer of lining than the original cuffs do. I do believe that this not only adds to their comfort, but their sweetness as well.

But don't let the sweetness fool you. The cuffs feature a locking buckle and a thick, firm buckle strap (the strap is white like the lining). They're moderately heavy-duty cuffs, even though they are both comfortable and plush. I wouldn't say that they can be used for suspension, though tie-ups and metal links are always options for connecting the cuffs. They don't come with any connectors, but you can find those easily in most stores.

For fit, the cuffs have the capability of fitting a wide range of sizes. There are six slots for adjustment with the locking buckle, each spaced ¼" apart. When laid flat, the cuffs measure 11½" from tip of the buckle strap to the edge of the cuff. However, they only fit sizes 5" to 9" around. This means that if you or your partner has ankles in this range, they can double as ankle cuffs. But if you don't, I would say that your best bet is to get only one pair for the wrists (which is what I did). The cuffs are not a wide pair of cuffs, but they're not very thin either at a width of 2". I would call them fairly average. The buckle strap is an inch in width.

One of the biggest problems with the Candy Jaguar set is not one with how they are made (unsurprisingly, even though they are firm and need to be broken in); it's due to the white leather. Most people will tell you what a pain upkeep is for anything white (clothes, shoes, furniture), so leather is no different. It gets stained easily and can possibly absorb the color of things around it, so I suggest keeping the cuffs hung up somewhere where there is no possibility of this happening. They can also always be kept in a plastic baggie to keep them safe from harm. On that note, when storing them, make sure to keep them out of direct sunlight and in a place that is not damp (do not keep them in your bathroom, for instance). Leather requires proper care, but if it cared for relatively well, it will last for a long, long time.

On the comfort side of things, the cuffs are fairly comfortable due to having the slightly plush, smooth leather interior, but because of the firmness of the buckle strap, they can be a little less movable and natural feeling. With more use they'll soften up, but until then, try to grin and bear it. It's really not that unpleasant of a feeling, it's just slightly more awkward than leather cuffs that have been broken in.

You simply cannot go wrong when buying products from Aslan, and since every product is backed by a lifetime guarantee, you will be set for life. Me personally, I am somewhat of a collector, so I could never be happy with just one pair. They're certainly a nice addition to what I already have, and because of the pink and white leather, they're also unique. If pink isn't your thing, Edenfantasys also carries the Candy Jaguar cuffs in baby blue (my favorite color, actually). Though I will admit that they are fairly expensive  at $58 (more so than some other leather cuffs out there), they are very good quality and Aslan Leather does have their guarantee, so it's more safety than other companies offer.

If you're interested in purchasing the Candy Jaguar cuffs, head on over to Edenfantasys. They're $58, like I said, but I find them to be worth the price. In addition to the matching collar, there's also two styles of harnesses to choose from that match the set as well. If you want a little discount, enter my partner code B5P at your checkout to get 15% off.

Note: They did come in a plastic, resealable baggie. I suggest keeping this for storage to keep the white leather as clean as possible. Even though no one really will see it, I'm somewhat obsessive over the state of my cuffs, so I kept the baggie.

Pete Trunks by SpareParts

The Pete line of packing underwear/straps by SpareParts makes packing a lot easier and a lot less bulky than wearing a regular strap or harness as would have otherwise been necessary. Now you can pack while wearing underwear because you'll be packing with your underwear, instead of having layers and layers underneath your clothing. No more worries of straps, adjusting buckles, or your packer sitting away from your body—now it just sits against you like it's your own appendage!

For now, let's talk about the trunks. They're form-fitting, have about an inch of length for the inseam, and are box-cut, which looks really sexy on most v-shaped body types. Individuals with more curvy/shapely bodies can wear them as well as they are very comfortable and very easy to wear under pants, skirts, shorts, or just alone! They also give that masculine feel, because trunks just line the package and ass so nicely. The elastic band is pretty stretchy, but in general, the trunks are tight, so keep that in mind before ordering. My trunks were a size small, which is stated as fitting 28" to 30" hips/waist. Edenfantasys does have their size chart listed, and I would say that it's pretty accurate. However, if you like a looser fit like me, buy a size up.

Made of the same material as the Joque and Theo harnesses, the Pete trunks are 88% nylon and 12% spandex-jersey blend. It's very similar to swimsuit material, but it doesn't pill after washing or wearing (thank god!). It hugs the ass and thighs, but surprisingly doesn't dig into the skin uncomfortably. However, the waistband does. I found the waistband to be slightly irritating, regardless of the fact that it fit me correctly. However, that could be because I'm used to my underwear having a bit of a looser fit.

Now, the part that makes the trunks special is the addition of the little pouch in the front where the pubic area is. Touching the skin are two overlaying flaps of the nylon/spandex material, which can be spread apart to put your packer or STP in. In front of that is another layer that has a small hole, which the shaft of the prosthetic can be pulled through. And finally, in front of that (the last layer) is the actual layer that is on the same level as the trunks themselves, and it has a slit on the side so that if you are wearing an STP, you can still use the bathroom regularly. Even though the hole is stretchy, I've noticed that the edges where it's sewn are starting to split a bit. That kind of saddens me, but what can you do? If wearing a packer, I suggest putting the packer in the trunks before pulling them up to try and prevent this from happening. Maybe me adjusting it with the trunks already on isn't such a good idea.

There was something odd about the make of these, though. On the layer of fabric where the hole is, there was this little elastic band. I wasn't sure what it was for, but I had read that you could put the back of your packer through it as well (or pull the shaft through that and then through the hole in the front). Well, I tried, and mine ripped clear off. Petty crappy, but what can you do? I ended up using a seam ripper to pull the rest of it off and just left it, since my prosthetic stays perfectly fine when it's just pulled through the hole in the middle layer.

To wrap this up, I want to say that I absolutely love my Pete trunks. They're really quite the cool pair of trunks, and they look good too! They make it much easier to pack since I don't have to let my prosthetic sit against my skin (which allows upkeep to be much easier) and I also don't have to worry about any mishaps, like my prosthetic falling out onto the floor, having it rub against me the wrong way, being uncomfortable/itchy, and having to constantly readjust. In fact, I rarely need to readjust myself when I'm wearing the SpareParts' Pete trunks, which is great.

Note: For cleaning, make sure to put these in the wash or hand wash these the first time alone. This is just to keep safe and keep the dye from getting on your other clothes. I know that I had a problem with my Joque and the dye rubbing off on other things, so I highly recommend washing the trunks with darks for their first time or separately/alone.

Wanting to purchase a pair of Pete trunks for yourself? Interested in the jock strap or briefs? Head on over to Edenfantasys to get your very own, and throw in a packer while you're at it! Get 15% off your total order when you enter the code B5P at your checkout. Happy shopping!

Mr. Limpy Extra Small by Fleshlight

Years ago, I received the wonderful Mr. Right packer. But alas, lately I've been feeling that having the look of a boner throughout the day is simply unprofessional and a bit irritating. So I decided to pick up the Mr. Limpy Extra Small so that I would look a bit less erect and a bit more out of the mood. And yes, I do dislike the name greatly. I wasn't too fond of "Mr. Right" either, but Mr. Limpy sounds creepy, to put it lightly.

And here are some pictures of the packer itself!

As the name would imply, Mr. Limpy is just that—a limp, flaccid packer. It's very petite, with a set of fairly large, extremely round testicles. The length of the cock is about three inches (yes, that's correct, three inches) and the testicles are about two. Though the size may seem off-putting, it's perfectly good for a packing size, unless you are planning on hard packing, which you certainly cannot do with Mr. Limpy. After all, it is flaccid. Wouldn't want to be having sex with a flaccid cock, now would you?

It's pretty good at stretching!

Mr. Limpy is very soft and plushy, which is extremely realistic considering the fact that it is supposed to resemble a flaccid penis. Putting my fingers on its surface, I can tell that it's certainly not "the real thing," but it does come close enough when it's under my clothing that I truly cannot tell the difference—and that's good enough for me! Sadly, the fact that it is a pink color instead of a flesh tone makes it a bit unsatisfying to me. That's actually why I didn't purchase it in the first place, regardless of the fact that it's so damn low-priced ($13!). It doesn't come in any other colors, which is kind of sad, because they should at least give the option of something cool, like blue, purple, or green. A green penis. Now that would be fun!

Poor little guy!

The design of Mr. Limpy is very important, because it's extremely realistic, down to the veins and folds of skin on the shaft and the razor bumps on its testicles (yes, those are indeed present). Mr. Limpy has a very convincing urethra that I honestly had to fight the urge to lick at because it's just so damn attractive. Same with the little ridges along the shaft that signify the unmistakable folds of a flaccid penis. Mr. Limpy does have a flat back, but that makes it better for sitting against the skin bare. If it's put inside of a harness or packing strap, then it also lays against the body much better than if it had fully rounded testicles. Sadly, the back of the testicles did have bubbles that seemed to be broken when it arrived in the box, so I've been trying to take good care of it so that it does not become ruined.

Something that's very important to realize is that Mr. Limpy is made of superskin, which is Fleshlight's brand of "ultra-realistic" material that they make all of their fleshlights out of. It has an odd, strong scent that doesn't really go away no matter how long you air it out and no matter how many times you wash it. Make sure that when you do wash it, you do not use soap—only a rinse with warm water and a dusting of cornstarch to maintain its soft, baby smooth feel. I definitely personally recommend the cornstarch, which you should probably dust once a week, at least. It really does help to keep Mr. Limpy nice and smooth and in good condition, considering the fact that superskin does not last as long as silicone does (like Mr. Right).

Mr. Limpy came in a small plastic packaging that was sealed closed. It's not reusable, so you may want to get out a ziploc baggie to store it in due to its scent. I personally just put it on my shelf and keep it there.

To wrap this up, I'm going to show a few more pictures of Mr. Limpy and also a couple of comparison pictures for your viewing and decision-making pleasure. Mr. Limpy is a cheap, great first (or last) packer and it's definitely great for trans- individuals or people who are simply wanting to experiment with packing. Its only real downfall is the fact that the material is so damn sensitive. But overall, for the price, it's worth buying. You can get it for $13 over at Edenfantasys, and if you'd like, use my code B5P at your checkout to get 15% off your entire order!

Flogger Case Regular and XL by FYN

To make an easy-to-read comparison, I'm reviewing the two flogger cases, the regular size and XL, by For Your Nyphomation. They're both well-constructed and great for carrying or transporting floggers, kink products, or even vibes to play parties, on trips, or wherever you may need a lockable case to keep your things. I personally love both of my cases, and I'm so glad that I bought them.

The two flogger cases, for size comparison. The XL is open.

Some things that they both have that are notable are the elastic on the flap, the little velcro hanging slots, and the lock. The elastic is almost useless in the regular-sized case, because it's doubtful that anything too heavy will be held in there (unless you have some steel or glass pieces that you are transporting). In that case, it's very helpful. However, in the XL, it was almost a necessity for me. When I put heavier floggers, like my barbed wire or Sparticus loves Cleo floggers, they fell off of the velcro loop (the velcro isn't the most heavy-duty velcro), so I had to pull them through the elastic bands. (Shown below are the velcro, left, and the elastic, right. Also the lock and tag.)

Each of the cases has a lock, which honestly is not the safest lock around. I have no problems with it, because no one is really trying to break into my things to see what I'm hiding, but I know that for people who do have this sort of thing happening, they might want to invest in a different lock. It's very small, and can be easily picked or snipped apart.

The Regular-sized Flogger Case

Let's start out with the smaller version, since that's generally what most people buy. It's 22" in length, 3½" wide, and 3" tall. It fits shorter floggers, the beloved Hitachi and Fairy wands, gags, my new Viper Tongue, and much, much more. Surprisingly, for its size, it holds a ton of things (perfect for play parties, in particular). I put some cuffs in there, a couple pairs of nipple clamps, and a number of other things essential for my idea of a "good time." And I certainly had one.

Sadly, it couldn't fit my rounded paddles or longer riding crops, but if I had wanted, I probably could have fit my chain or feather ticklers. It simply isn't wide enough to fit a round paddle (but my Angelic Dreams Spank Her paddle did indeed fit, which is good enough for me).

It's really easy to hold for me because of its small size. Being 5' 1" (yes, I'm only 5' 1"), I could use the nylon shoulder strap and put it across my chest (after loosening it, of course), or hold it by the regular hand strap on the side. It does become slightly heavy, considering how much it has the capability to hold, but it's nowhere near unwieldy. The case could definitely be taken to a party or hotel room (not to sound creepy, just being realistic).

The XL Flogger Case

Now for the XL. The XL case is great for longer floggers, like my roses flogger. It's not bigger in the width/height department, so the only thing that makes it "XL" is really its length. It's 42" in total length, 3" in height, and 3½" in width. What's great about that though is that for those of us who have longer floggers, whips, or any form of equipment, we can easily store it in those cases.

So what could I fit in mine? I could fit two floggers, some nipple clamps, a spreader bar (probably two, if I really wanted), and a handful of other miniature things. Where the XL case really shines is in its ability to hold longer impact implements. I personally have quite a few longer floggers, canes, and riding crops, and these all fit in the XL flogger case. There is elastic on the case's cover, so I suggest putting your heavier floggers through the elastic, as the velcro on the inside will not hold it in place.

I will say that the XL case is a bit unwieldy, to be fully honest. Especially at my height, it looks a little ridiculous if I try to put it across my chest. However, in transportation and in holding, it's perfect for when you're needing to either pack more, or pack things that are longer. If need be, it could be seen as a double regular-size case, so that you have twice the storage area.

Comparison of the Two Cases

So here are two lists of the two cases' specifications and some notes about what they're good for. Hopefully, this makes it easier for you to know which one will be a better purchase to make for your style and needs.

XL on left, regular on right.

Regular Flogger Case

• Fits shorter floggers, nipple clamps, mouth gags, and things of a generally smaller size
• Has a more "bumpy" texture
• More of a matte finish
• Is 22" in length

• Is a bit more shiny
• Is 42" in length
• Comes with a lock and set of two keys
