I really liked that these beads were soft and flexible. These were our first experience with beads, and I was concerned about comfort. Very concerned! We've had some experience in anal play, and he specifically asked me to get us some beads to try. I'll admit I was nervous. If your partner is wanting to try them, don't be afraid. They were a lot less scary than I originally feared. I enjoyed them much more than I expected to.

He used them on me, and oh my! We piled a bunch of pillows up in the middle of the bed so I could be comfy and relaxed. There are five of them, and I don't think I ever counted to five so slowly in my life! I wasn't sure how the fifth one was going to fit, really. But he was patient and persistent. They went in nice and easy with lots of lube, and it really spiced up the foreplay.

Because the handle is soft and bendy, it wasn't in the way during vaginal intercourse. I like it when he takes me from behind, and the extra sensation of fullness made it even better. And the anticipation... knowing he was going to pull when I climaxed... delicious! I actually lost count when they were being removed. How do you lose count between one and five? He loved the sensation of popping them out one at a time while he was inside me.

The downside was the clean-up afterward. The same grooved design of each bead that makes for flexibility, makes for a messy clean-up. No matter how prepared you are ahead of time, be sure to have a towel close at hand to drop them on. These really aren't for spur of the moment encounters. You need to be on empty, so plan accordingly. Be sure to have plenty of lube available, too.

It might be fun to insert them in bedroom and finish with them in the shower. That would really help with the clean up. Problem is, removing them causes such an intense response, you might slip and fall. So be careful!
