Sterlization of Slim Jim

What is a quick safe way to sterilize the Slim Jim or any insertable.

And, what is "HFO"

First, do not ever share urethral electrodes! That is one way to help combat any possible transfer of bacteria.

With the urethral electrodes, make sure you clean them before use. We usually recommend washing your electrodes in a 10% bleach and 90% water solution, adding in some mild soap, perhaps an anti-bacterial. Rinse well, towel off and then spray with isopropyl alcohol, let it dry completely. Make sure your hands are clean when you handle this as well. Make sure the lube you are using was packaged in a sterile manner and make sure to use plenty. There are those who recommend drinking lots of cranberry juice and flushing your system after doing any urethral play to help reduce your chances of infection.

My personal opinion is that if you do not know the proper procedures for urethral play or do not wish to use proper care when using your urethral electrodes or toys, then you should not be using urethral items. There is risk involved in this kind of play and most who enjoy this kind of play know this.

Also, you do not have to have deep insertion of the electrode to enjoy the sensations. So if you are not comfortable with inserting the electrode its full six inches (when we are discussing the Big Jim/Slim Jim or the Sparkler/Big Boy Sparkler), then don't. Simply insert what you are comfortable with. The Corona with Amplifier only inserts 1 1/2" into the urethra and it is very popular.

As for HFO, that is the abbreviation for Hands Free Orgasm. This is something that many who use electro stimulation either have experienced or are trying to experience. Basically, it means that you orgasm merely through the sensations delivered by the electro stimulation, without touching yourself at all.

Personally, I think a lot of newbies to electro stimulation put too much pressure on themselves to experience this right away. I think that first you need to find what feels good about electro stimulation and 'retrain' your body to find electro stimulation erotic. If that means using manual manipulation or vibratory stimulation in conjunction with the electro stimulation, then so be it. I think you just need to figure out how good the orgasm can feel and then work towards the hands free experience. After all, even when you use hands, the orgasm is intensified by the electro stimulation. I still remember the first time I had an orgasm using the vaginal plug. My boyfriend at the time was helping out by playing with my clit and when I finally orgasmed, it was amazing. And I can honestly say, I really didn't care that it wasn't hands-free because it just felt so good.

So I hope I've helped out a bit.

Later!
