Want To Transform Your Outdoor Space into a Calming, Boho-Chic Escape (Um, Yes)?

Theres theclassic vibrator, which people can use for vaginal or anal penetration, or variations thattarget the clitoris.

There are sucking toys, butt plugs, G-spot stimulators, and dildos.

And there are toys designed specifically forpeople with penises.

Perhaps the most well-known toy in that category is the cock ring.

These vibes, if you will, are but one of the things that makes Maudes Band so unique.

Luckily, he agreed.

It comes with a carrying case and a USB charger.

He had heard of them and conceptualized cock rings as thin bands without any extra frills.

However, were no strangers to other kinds of sex toys.

I handed it to my partner and he agreed that the silicone material was almost buttery in texture.

In the moments of full penetration, it was pretty bomb.

My partner, thought, was mostly surprised by what the band looked like.

I also wondered if it would be uncomfortable to, ahem, bump up against during more vigorous sex.

Would it be painful like the aforementioned plastic suction toy?

Wed have to test it ourselves to see.

When not using, you might stow it in a discrete bag.

We noted how much it stretched and where the power button was and how you increased the intensity.

(Its one button for both of these things.)

Im glad we did this because it helped us get out of our heads and into the mood.

Once we were both aroused, we placed the cock ring on my partners penis.

We made this a team effortI expanded the band while my partner inserted his penis in the ring.

(Though one person could easily do this.)

During

My partner and I are big fans of penetrative sex.

Though I prefer clitoral orgasms, my top-rated sex combo is penetrative sex simultaneous with clitoral stimulation.

Thats what Band offers.

To be sure, this also felt good to my partnerbut mostly when he was fully penetrating me.

In the moments of full penetration, it was pretty bomb, he so eloquently tells me.

The back and forth motion directly translated into a start-and-stop stimulation of my clitoris.

(Still felt good, though!)

However, that wasnt a big deal breaker, as we found the anticipation more enticing than mood-killing.

We wondered if the placement of the motor could make a difference.

We tried flipping Band so that the motor was facing, and rubbing up against, his testicles.

Im definitely not used to this sensation on my testicles, he says.

It feels like my balls are going to fall off.

Once we introduced other sensationslike a hand stroke on his shafthe changed his tune.

Yeah, like, that… felt pretty good, honestly, he says.

It was wild how just a simple tweak made a big difference in my partners experience with the toy.

Pleasure begets pleasure, and everyone deserves it in equal amounts.

The bottom line

The Maude Band delivers on many levels.

And it has an easy-to-activate travel mode that keeps it from buzzing around in your luggage or purse.

If only it wasnt so tricky to change the parameters mid-sex.
