Dear LGP,
I do realize that your question is mostly aimed at other men who must have tried both experiences, but I think women here can also contribute.

Comparing a dick with a dildo is a battle lost before it starts. Just like you can hardly compare masturbation with couple's sex because both have their perks and downfalls.

With one you have full control over the angles and doing what you like, the other is attached to another human being - you get my point here.

However, if you are only interested in the feel, you might try out the hyper-realistic toys, with all the anatomy features, material feeling like real skin, even pubic hair and all.

I went from dildo to dick and back again. I won't say I regret it, but I won't be coming back to dick. I enjoy pegging, too, but not gay, not my cup of tea.

I love banging my suction cup dildo but would try a lubed dick for the first time I think I’m ready !

Depends on the person I guess.

I've had both and it really depends on what you want or expect from the experience.

Obviously if you want size, with a toy, you can go as large as your imagination can take you and then some. With a male partner I'd say skill in using what he has is just as important if not more so than size.

Sadly, far too many men (who really should know) don't know how to angle their cock to stimulate the prostate of their partner. Not to brag but I've been able to induce a "hands free" orgasm in several partners who possessed a prostate. Unfortunately, I've seldom experienced that from being the receptive partner of a real cock. Even, after giving instruction... one even said "I know what I'm doing" but he didn't.

Getting there by being pegged... oh yes.
But again, skill in using the toy even a large one is the determining factor.

I've have both. I truly prefer dildo over dick one I'm not into same sex it just not me. I didn't find the real deal feeling as comfortable as a dildo smoothness that is.

So, for you, dear BP, it was more about the sensation, and you weren't particularly fond of other implications.

That is a very interesting point, LGP - maybe, the sensation comes first for you, too?

Pegging is fun, especially when the woman knows how to do it (and my wife does). I also don't just lay there like some videos show guys doing. You wouldn't want a woman to just lie there while you had your cock inside her, so why would the woman pegging you want you to just be still?

I'm an "active" participant and move with and against my partner which increases both of our levels of pleasure. Since she knows I'm enjoying it, she enjoys it more. We swap between using a Feeldoe More and a regular harness with our favorite toy. Wife likes the Feeldoe because she says she can "feel" herself doing it and that's a turn on for her too.

So to answer the original post question, yes have tried the real thing and yes they're both different sensations. And as a married male that identifies as predominately straight, I still would try the real thing again. I don't think allowing others to put your sexuality or pleasure into a descriptive box is a good thing. I don't feel any less straight enjoying the pleasure of a real one or my wife pegging me because we're sharing the experience and it turns us both on.

And yes I have cum hands free for both as well.

I’ve had both. I’d have to say I like the dildo more, because you get to control how your sessions will go. It all really depends on the person though. The only real way to see if you like either is to try it.

Don't know that there is a difference. At least I couldn't feel a difference. All I know is, either way it feels good.
