A great use for this feather is to introduce a little whimsy, especially for a partner who's not the most playful. It's a fantastic way to introduce your partner to something different then the usual one or two moves, missionary, "Wham, bam, let's get this done ma'am" routine. It can turn an Eeyore ("Everything is the same, let's just get this done, I'm so blah" type of person who doesn't like change and thinks anything new will go wrong) into an exciting lover. It's a great way to bring around someone who doesn't want toys introduced in the bedroom.

Try a gentle little tickle at the end of his sensitive velvet tip. Little warning: don't go too far, because too much stimuli there and your night might end prematurely! If that is the case, be understanding; no reason to embarrass or berate someone over spilled milk. Don't be patronizing, because with a little more tickle, you'll be ready for a brand new game of play! You will bring him around to the wonderful world of pleasure a simple toy can bring.

Also, no matter the gender of your partner, with a little creativity and a dash of common sense, there are all sorts of places on the body you can add to your game (for example, no matter the gender, a little nipple play goes a long way at the end of the day).

So, for me, this is a fabulous way to introduce a beginner to a world of sexual variety, and advanced users can use it to bring someone over to their side or to add a little lightness, either with a partner or to get yourself going during solo play.

I think the design and shape are perfect for the product. It's cute and can be used functionally or as a prop for roleplay or a costume party. I found it to be very well-made, and if used with care, it can last you a long time as long as you avoid getting it too wet. A light lick is fine but don't soak it or it won't last you very long.

The material is nice; it has a nice feel that is very enjoyable and can really get you in the mood, especially if you are sensitive. Alternatively, if you are extra ticklish, it might not be the product for you unless a little tickle gives you fun, laughter, and relaxation so you're not so tense and feel more at ease, especially to relieve the tension with a new partner or during your first time.

It feels nice - a great stimulator. As for smell, I'd recommend spraying it with a light perfume that your partner finds irresistible. Be gentle, don't get it wet, hold it back, and let the perfume fall over it. No more then one spray and it can make it more pleasant, adding another sense to the game.

For my needs, it worked to perfection. It was great for some fun, light foreplay as part of a session that's not too intense. It met all my needs and expectations. Let's be honest; you mostly know what you're getting when you order this type of product. As I said, a great application is as an introduction for your partner into something a little more wild, kinky, or even just a little bit more then the basics.

Don't get it any more wet than a little light lick (which can be a fun visual - taking one feather and slowly placing it in your mouth for a little tease is sure to get your partner going) - be careful because feathers and water is not a good mixture. Store it in a dry place: a drawer is great, especially if you have a "special" drawer.

Just have fun, be creative, and you'll get great value out of it and a lot of use. If you have an allergic reaction to the feathers, play a little nurse and doctor - turn a con into a positive.

I found it was useful for more than just partner play. I found that it can get you in the mood when you're enjoying a little solo play: a little light exploration can get you in the mood. I don't need it, but for those who like to imagine someone else is there, it is great to close your eyes and picture someone is lightly running their hands or tongue up and down your body, lightly caressing your nipples. It can get you wet and it's great if you are in the mood to draw out the experience.

It also really enhances partner play, enhancing your senses. Both my partner and I enjoyed it, and he really liked it when I ran it across my breasts and teased him by lightly touching myself. Then I drew it out, torturing him with pleasure by using it on his various erogenous zones, particularly the sensitive velvet tip of his penis. It was fun for both experiences (solo and partnered) and I found it very enjoyable. It was well worth the very affordable price, and this and products like it are a favorite of mine.
