The purpose of the male masturbator is to give sexual pleasure. There are several types of male masturbators. The one we are focusing on is called Fleshlight . It is a sex toy made of thermoplastic elastomer.

What is Fleshlight ? How does it work? How to maintain it?

Let's answer these questions.

What is a Fleshlight?

Since the masturbator is a flashlight and it is about the pleasure of the flesh, they named it Fleshlight ! This brand of sex toys has been on the market since 1998. Its main feature is that it simulates the feeling of a vagina.

Fleshlight is marketed in different formats:

Mouth shaped to simulate fellatio
Vagina shaped to simulate vaginal intercourse
Anus shaped to simulate anal sex

The Fleshlight consists of a case and a sheath. The sheath is crossed by a tube that can accommodate your penis. The "Real Feel Super Skin" sheath inside the case is made of a high quality material (thermoplastic elastomer) in order to get as close as possible to reality.

Fleshlight is the best performing male masturbator on the market because its sensations simulate reality surprisingly well. No matter how much energy you invest, you can always expect to feel more pleasure.

Each male masturbator is designed to withstand hours of solo action, so you don't have to hold back. Let your wild side take over. The Fleshlight will leave you completely satisfied and the pleasurable sensation will only intensify.

It looks like a flashlight which makes it discreet. It can easily be put in a suitcase or carry-on luggage without attracting suspicion and following you everywhere.

How to choose a male masturbator?

Let your preferences guide you.

Manual or automatic?

It's really up to you. However, be aware that the automatic model does not allow you to control the movements. You are guided by the rhythm of the toy and cannot impose your own. If you try to impose your rhythm, you risk breaking the sex toy. This is not the case with the manual model which gives you total control of your feelings, your rhythm and your desires.

What shape do you prefer?

Do you want the classic or do you prefer the Dracula shape? Do you want the mold of your favorite star? What feeling do you want? Oral, anal or vaginal? By answering these questions, you will be able to choose the masturbator that will rock your world.

So there are three types of Fleshlight masturbator:

The Realists, molded from your favorite pornstar
The BOOST range
Quick Shots

The Fleshlight masturbator has the advantage of existing in many forms. Some are designed from pornstar molds. These toys are more than just stimulants; they allow you to experience the same orgasmic pleasure that you would feel with your favorite porn star. Whether you like to stroke the same hole or the same rotations, your sessions will never be the same again. With each type of Fleshlight, you will experience unique sensations.

Its texture is also an advantage. Although it looks like silicone, it is not. Its texture is soft and silky. It does not contain latex and no phthalates. It is quite soft and its effect on the skin is incredible. On the other hand, it is porous like all thermoplastics.

How does Fleshlight work?

Like any sex toy, the first thing to do is to read the instruction manual of your new acquisition to be quickly operational. When you open the box, you will notice a funny smell. Don't panic!! This smell of new sex toy will disappear with time. You will get to know your Fleshlight and after a few manipulations, it will make you known!

Here is a guide to using your Fleshlight:

Warm up your masturbator

May be different for each model! Read the instructions first!

For best results, the first thing you should do is warm up your Fleshlight. Start by removing the sleeve from its case, then place it in a bowl of warm water to warm it up. After that, bring it to the desired temperature. Then, remove the water and put the Fleshlight back in its case. Your masturbator is almost ready to use, there is one last thing to do.

Lubricate your masturbator

You are ready to use your toy. All you have to do is lube it up. Make sure to use water-based lubricants. Using any other lubricant will damage your sleeve. Lube up the hole, the inside of the sex toy, and yourself. Don't be sparing with the lube; the more the better.

Use your masturbator

You can use your toy by inserting your penis into the sheath and surf the waves of pleasure at will. The small valve will allow you to modify the suction effect by changing the air flow.

Cleaning your masturbator

No matter which Fleshlight you use, there will always be a maintenance guide. Cleaning the toy is quite simple. After using your masturbator, remove the sleeve from its case and rinse it with warm water. Let the water run inside the sex toy. This will remove any traces of lube, semen, and fluids.

Do not use soap; the material of your masturbator's sleeve is very sensitive and soap could damage it. Some users use alcohol to clean their sex toys, but this is not recommended.

Drying

Once washed, air dry your Fleshlight. This is the last step. You will notice that your sleeve is a little sticky. Don't worry, this is perfectly normal. To prevent it from sticking, simply sprinkle a special powder on the Fleshlight. If you don't have any, you can use cornstarch. This works well too. Sprinkle it liberally until a thin white layer covers the sleeve. The powder will help keep your sleeve soft. Then remove the excess powder by patting the sleeve in your hands. When you are done, place the Fleshlight in its pouch and case. Close everything up and store your Fleshlight until you are ready to use it again.

What You Shouldn't Do With Your Male Masturbator

To give your toy more life, here's what you should avoid doing:

Wash your Fleshlight with soap as the pH of the soap will damage the toy
Lending your sex toy; you could get sick
Wash your masturbator with silicone gel (the chemical reaction will deteriorate the internal texture of your toy)
Put your masturbator in your dishwasher; it is not made to be washed that way
Boil your sex toy to clean it as it will lose its texture
Use isopropyl alcohol or 10% bleach solution

Remember that with your Fleshlight you can try a wide variety of positions and methods.

Here are some tips:

Lying on your back Rub your penis on the hole of your masturbator before entering it. Strong feelings guaranteed.
Lying on your stomach with your masturbator wedged under a pillow. Adopt the missionary style as if you were on top of your partner.

As we have just seen, male masturbators are a huge success. Fleshlight is the most popular male sex toy on the market. The different styles available are what makes it special. There is a Fleshlight for everyone. Oral, anal or vaginal, you decide.

Nothing can stop you from having fun anymore. Just remember to clean it well after use. It's all about your health. A well-maintained masturbator will last longer for your greatest pleasure.
