Flogger Case Regular and XL by FYN

1 comments
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.



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).



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.

It's that time of year again...you know, when it's time to start getting gifts for everyone, including yourself or a special, special loved one. Winter holidays time! I'm going to share with you the Red Diamond Princess, a traditional, compact-sized vibrator made of velvety smooth plastic and with a turn-dial base.

It comes packaged adorably in a sweet tin case, and its design is attractive and pleasing to the eye. The color is very nice, too. If you want to read my entire review of the Red Diamond Princess, follow this link.

Inflatable Position Master by Pipedream

This is the Inflatable Position Master by Pipedream. From Edenfantasys for only $27, you can make one of these your own in order to make positions easier during sex (or even to rest a laptop on). I really love mine, it's just an excellent addition to my growing collection. It has handles on the side, as you can see, and its velvety texture is pretty smooth and doesn't feel too rough. And since it's a plain black, it should go with most room setups, regardless of design.

Here you can see the handles, and the rubber piece where you blow it up from.
My hand fits quite nicely and easily. Also, it comes with a little nylon blindfold.
This is the packaging for the Position Master (not discreet, but hey, what can you do?)

The Positions Master's great because it can fit a wide variety of people (it states that it can hold up to 300lbs.). It is inflatable, however, which isn't to some people's taste. In that case, you can always purchase another piece of sex furniture from Edenfantasys, like something from Liberator or Love Bumper.

Bottoms Up edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel

The book Bottoms Up was a book that I had been lusting after for the longest time. I mean, come on—what person who loves spanking wouldn't be interested in a book with a red tush on its cover and the words "bottoms up" perfectly framing that round ass? Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, this is a collection of short stories all about something that I personally love: beating some sweet bottoms.

Bottoms Up - BookWith a total of twenty stories (yes, you read that correctly—twenty stories), you're bound to find something that you enjoy (hopefully you'll find more than one, though). These include different dynamics of relationships and people of different sexual persuasions (polyamory included). There are many heterosexual stories, a few homosexual stories, and stories with people living out their long ignored fantasies and desires.

Some of my favorites included Prime Time by Teresa Noelle Roberts, Stuffing the Ballot Box by Andrea Dale, and Flaming by Jean Roberta. Out of all of those, I really loved Prime Time the most. It was about an experienced BDSM couple, female submissive and male Dominant, where the Dominant in the relationship was a math professor. Since I'm a math professor, I could heavily relate to the man in the story and it was quite amusing to see how similar his character was to mine (making the submissive count the strikes, thank after each one, etc.) The sex was good, too.

Stuffing the Ballot was another one with a male Dominant (sorry, I didn't particularly like the stories with female Dominants, though I will note some that were written well later). The woman in the story is a senator, a woman of high regard and status, who needs time to "relax" and let go of herself when she's home. Her Dominant allows her to do this by giving her the much needed pain and control that she craves.

And last but certainly not least, Flaming is about...well...people who are flaming. Silly title, I know, but hey, what can you do? Two gay men, one who is a painter, another one who lives in the same apartment complex, help each other out. The painter needs a model for his painting, and the other man, Matthew, has had a crush on the painter for a very long time. They get together, Matthew gets spanked by the painter a bit. The reason why I liked it is because I thought that it was very cute, how Matthew dresses in drag.

Some other titles that I thought were good but were not favorites were:
  • A Firm Understanding by Elizabeth Coldwell (involves polyamory)
  • Ass Worship by Jerry Arthur (female Dominant)
  • Lonnie's Licks by Tenille Brown (male Dominant, but a nice message about addiction)
  • Confessor by Craig J. Sorensen (female Dominant)
  • Helping Those in Need by Gwen Masters (male Dominant)

As you can see, many of the stories were enjoyable (even to me, a sadistic little bastard). There were some others that were alright, just not tasteful in my opinion, so I am not listing them. As an entire collection, however, these were well-picked stories and they were, for the most part, well-written. They catered to a wide audience, with a wide range of stories (both for the more vanilla spanker and the more experienced). So if you like spanking and you love reading erotica, Bottoms Up is a wonderful book to have on your shelf.
