I don't find glass to be uncomfortable. If you start with something that is a comfortable size and has minimal texture, it probably won't be painful as long as you're not thrusting super vigorously. If glass was painful, it wouldn't be anywhere near as popular as it is!

I really enjoy my glass toys!

Glass is extremely comfortable, but I only use my toys vaginally, so I don't know anything about anal. You might want to check out the forum for anal toys.

I love my glass pieces just remember glass has NO give whatsoever and its solid. If you like your items soft or with give I would pass up glass.

I think glass is pretty comfortable, myself. You just can't be too aggressive (if you usually are) because you could potentially bruise yourself. I have never personally had any issues with glass, though.

I find glass comfortable, but not in a "soft and cuddly" sense. I really love glass but I'm not very sensitive internally so I love the firmness and the texture that glass allows.

i felt the same way. i thought because of it being hard and unbendable it would hurt and not be enjoyable. i was surprised that i like it. lubrication or lube is needed for sure.

i like it, it's not an every day thing for me though. i like the temperature play of it, and i think it is visually appealing -(as far as putting on a show)

Glass toys are beautiful but I still haven't gotten myself one. I've been too afraid of it hurting too. I've noticed super textured or bulbous toys hurt my pelvis. I think I will try one soon though!

It's a rational fear, but it ain't necessarily so that glass toys will hurt. A few points to keep you from discomfort...
Start slowly (good advice with any toy or real life 'hardware' ). I'm assuming you already have toys in more flexible materials (eg silicone)? Select your glass toy a size smaller than what you're already comfortable with. Because glass is harder, it seems bigger than it actually is. I find subtracting about 1/4" in diameter from your favorite size in a flexible toy material is about right.
Of course, use plenty of lube and be patient. Insert gradually. Go slow until you're comfortable. Just as with most other toys, once it's fully inserted and comfortable, you're pretty much good to go.
My wife and I have a number of glass toys. We have a beautiful glass strap-on that my wife pegs me with from time to time. I use glass butt plugs almost always when I'm getting warmed up for pegging. I have a short (2" plug that's about 1.25" diameter which is the perfect warmup for an average dildo (eg the Vixskin Mustang, which is 1.5" diameter) and the Cobalt Bubble Plug to warmup for medium/large dildos (such as the Vixskin Johnny). I also use both of those plugs fairly often for anal stimulation in solo play.
And yes, they are all quite comfortable! The Cobalt Bubble was a wee bit uncomfortable the first time I used it, but that was because I underestimated how big a 1.625" diameter glass plug would feel. The next time, I used the small plug (which goes in almost effortlessly) first. After that, inserting the larger plug was easy. And comfortable.
Glass holds temperatures better than other toy materials. If you heat or cool it before play, it will keep the heat or cold for a long time during play. Which can be a lot of fun! Glass is also REALLY easy to care for, completely odorless and although it may sound fragile, a well-made glass toy can last a lifetime (or longer) if you take care not to drop it from 3 stories onto the sidewalk or anything like that!
A few years ago, glass toys were fairly rare and usually expensive. Now, there's a lot more variety and prices are a lot lower. Considering the durability, glass toys are possibly the most economical choice in the long run. Have fun!

It's pretty comfortable, but you may want to warm it before use.
