When I started reviewing for EdenFantasys I never pictured myself buying a harness or the dildos to use with it. Neither of my guys was interested in pegging and I didn't have a female playmate. One night, as I was perusing the site, Sigel casually remarked that it would be hot as hell to see me in a harness! After I picked up my jaw I told him that I didn't have anyone to use a harness with. He calmly told me that he might actually enjoy a little pegging every now and again. WOW!

Needless to say to anyone who has a curious and supportive partner, I bought a harness and got a few dildos as part of the deal. The Silk Medium from Tantus was one of the dildos. The dildo is non-threatening to a male ego since it is not anatomically correct. It is completely smooth and offers a large but comfortable flared base making it safe for use with or without a harness.

The camera I use bleaches out color but the Silk lavender is actually a true purple and is slightly sparkly when not covered with fuzz. Yes, this is a silicone dildo so it picks up fluff, fur and other flurf easily and quickly. A quick rinse before use takes care of the problem, it's really no big deal.

This toy has the highest safety rating offered here at EdenFantasys because it is composed of 100% food-grade, hypo-allergenic, latex free, non-porous, and phthalates free silicone. The finish is very matte so it offers a lot of drag. If you prefer a more smooth ride then a few drops of water based lubricant can turn this into the slipperiest little guy around! Silicone lube is not recommended with this toy but if you must then spot test a small area to be sure your brand won't mar the finish of the toy.
Unfortunately, another draw back to using this dildo as a plug is it will slide right on out because there is nothing for the anal sphincter to grab onto. It does turn this into a perfect thrusting toy for anal use or for those female bodied players who prefer a shorter, slimmer toy.

This dildo is incredibly flexible but not so flexible that it makes insertion difficult. The give means you will be able to grip the dildo with your anal muscles and it doesn't feel so incredibly invasive for people, like me, who have timid butts. I still recommend going slow and using plenty of lube but I have to admit my body relaxes and takes this toy much easier than toys with no give.

The Silk Medium measures 6 inches in total with 5.50 inches being insertable. This is a slim little dildo measuring only 3.25 inches around from tip to base. The base measures in at 2.75 inches across meaning your butt is unlikely to mistake the flare for another fun little texture to munch up. The base is flexible enough to fit between the butt cheeks if you like to walk around with a toy inserted, but sitting down on it is not awfully comfortable. It fits easily in most harnesses and really shines as a dildo rather than a plug.

Cleaning this dildo can be as simple as washing in hot water and soap or as elaborate as a 10% bleach and water wash, boiling for 2 minutes, commercial cleaner/wipe or washing in the dishwasher in the top rack without washing powder. It will not harbor nasties and is great for sharing providing you wash it clean before passing it over during play.
A small size condom is also a great addition to this toy for easier cleaning and teaching youngsters about proper condom usage!
The toy arrives in a clear plastic box and is fitted inside a molded plastic shell to protect the finish of the toy. As this is a softer silicone toy I wouldn't recommend storing it in direct sunlight or in a drawer with jelly toys it could come in contact with. Though interaction is probably rare there are horror stories out there! The plastic box makes a good storage medium though it is larger than the dildo and can be bulky for those with limited space. The box is clear which means the toy is clearly visible making it less than discreet.

For those of us who don't appreciate our toys looking like real life cut off penises the silk series is perfect. This toy is amazing in a harness and still looks brand new. I expect it to last longer than I will!
