Never Underestimat the Size of Your Toy

I'll admit up front to not being able to take much size in my ass. My go-to (and for a while only) toy is a 1.25" diameter glass plug with a flared base, and that gives me enough resistance getting it all the way inside me. I recently picked up the Hush 2 from Lovense, which is only .25" bigger diameter-wise, and **wow** did it take some patience to put it in. I know it'll become easier to slip it in with time, but I was caught entirely off guard by the difference that minor size increase made.

I have had similar experiences. It makes me think of that idiom, “your eyes are bigger than your stomach,” but in this case, my eyes are bigger than my anus. Smallish looking toys and objects have often looked appealing like they would be no problem to me only to find they are bigger than I thought. I’ve had the experience several times of finally getting the widest part of a toy to pop in and then get an immediate intense muscular ache in my anus that I don’t like. And then I have to pull the thing back out!

The perfect size is elusive and I have yet to find it. The search can be fun but is usually frustrating and expensive over time.

Yes, I also have had instances in which my eyes were bigger than my anus. My biggest toy is about 2-1/8 inches in diameter. This was and still is the perfect size for me as, 1) I have to work it into me, not just slide it, and I feel every bit of it. 2) When it finally does stretch in, it is also is big enough that it stretches the walls of my rectum and I can feel it stretch my insides as it slowly slides in and stuffs me to my full rectum length - about 5-1/2 to 6 inches. What a great sensation. 3) It is tight enough that friction of the anus and rectum walls are enough to keep it in place, and I have to pull it out - another fantastic sensation.

So, One pay-day Friday afternoon, I got the thought that bigger has to be better, right?. I ordered 2-1/2 and 3" dildos, each about 12" long. These things would not even start to go into me. it was like trying to use a 17mm socket on a 19mm lug nut - a completely futile gesture. Evidently, 2-1/8 was my practical limit.

Another thing that I have found is that hard objects feel larger and more simulating than softer or semi-hard objects of the same diameter. My large toy is actually a hairspray can. It has a snap-off cap that is probably 1-1/4" in diameter. I've taped that cap in place for security and then before each use, I place a Magnum condom on the can. If I'm not careful, I will sometimes break the condom during installation. I also sometimes place a large doubled-up rubber band on the can to make a ridge that I can feel slide in and out. This goes on before the condom, of course.

It seems that manufacturers tend towards making larger sized anal plugs and such. They go overboard in size. I often wonder who can actually accommodate some of the shapes, designs and dimensions they sell. Most are not for me at all.

I even wonder if the things they manufacture are even tried out before starting a production run. My guess would be that they design something and don't bother about testing.

This goes for things like flanges as well. A flange should be elongated and fit into the curve of the cleft. Round or square flanges can be uncomfortable over longer periods of time.

It just seems like manufacturers don't put much thought or practical experience into designing anal plugs.

I can (after years of practice) bounce up and down on a 4 inch diameter plug. J lube is perfect for this kind of play. Going for Mr. Hankey xxxl LWTip next. Going to get a fucking machine. Bigger toys hard for wife to hold.

I have similar observation that toys, especially dildos, are made bigger than previously and then their advertised dimensions, too.

A year go I ordered two dildos, one was supposed to be big, 8.75" insertable length and 2" thick, and second, something challenging, 9.5" insertable and 2.2" thick, according to the description. Same details were on the manufacture website. But in reality the smaller one was actually the size of what the bigger was supposed to be, and the bigger turned out to be really big - almost 11" insertable and 2.55" thick.

I have noticed this to, Small is so tiny its not doing much, Key chain ornament? Medium is the old large. Large is very large I often go for this size and the extra large is are you kidding me? I see them that's extra large used on camera sites often enough by some of the performers that go for size. I used to go that large but eased off when the gape started giving me problems like dripping or wet farts regularly.

About the size description or measurements. They are usually noted for reference only. With this caveat don't expect accuracy especially into the measurement after the decimal point. They are making adult novelties "sex toys" not machine parts.

I *almost* had this with my new toy, but thankfully my muscles relaxed enough. Though I need to find a way to prevent the vibration from backing it out of me.

They're reasonably accurate from my findings. It isn't a perfect measurement but I'm not about to cut my toy to get a perfect cross-section lol. At least for the toys I've purchased, they're basically true to their advertised measurements.

Lots of us sometimes forget a 1mm increase in the diameter is a 3mm increase in how much your muscle has to stretch. So a .25” increase in diameter means your muscle has to stretch an extra 3/4” and that’s a lot if your muscle is already at the limit before.

Hence, the derivation of the term “Pi Hole” or “Pie Hole”. Although that might be a reference to your mouth, where pies go in, rather than cream pies come out. It’s the circle of life.
