We all owe a debt of gratitude to the scientific minds at Tantus for venturing into the deep, dark unknown. They not only pioneered the strapless dildo but have since introduced it in a myriad of different sizes and colors. The Feeldoe Slim holds rank as the most manageable size for beginners. At a length of 9.5 inches (6.5 insertable) and a modest girth 1 3/8", the Feeldoe Slim ushers in a bigger novice following. Sadly, size isn't the only consideration for the beginner and I found there were some hiccups to this strapless dildo that otherwise looks good on paper.

My primary complaint about the Slim (and all Feeldoes) is that they are brutally unforgiving. The Feeldoe fails to recreate soft, supple skin in any meaningful way. What you'll find instead is that the Slim is very rigid with little to no flexibility. This, for me, leads to the sensation of being hammered at from the inside. It was a complaint that my wife did not share in any way. Her feelings were much more positive.

You see, the Slim delivers something that the strap-on experience never could - more sensation for the female. This translates into enthusiasm. The more enthusiasm and zeal, the greater the motion and speed. Proceeding with near reckless abandon will only serve to yield more pleasure. Unfortunately, this enthusiasm won't always be to the benefit of the receiver. The Slim will do its job of delivering an enhanced experience to your partner, but you might find yourself eating a pillow.

As if it were needed, the female experience is further enhanced by a vibrating bullet that's inserted into the base of the Feeldoe. And let me tell you, it delivers results in a big way. The end result is that your partner may be more enthusiastic about her newfound toy than you'd like her to be. If you're looking for a pegging experience, this is the way to get your partner excited about it, but buyer beware, you might find yourself battling the hammer of Thor.

She won't want to stop and it's in your interest to be prepared for a wild ride. Make sure to have lots of water-based lube on hand and a little desensitizer to ease the experience. In the end, you might find yourself opting for another strapless dildo - one with even a little less diameter and more forgiving construction. While the Feeldoe finds itself out of commission, I may re-revisit it in the future.

Another tip is to have the correct batteries on hand for the bullet. They don't last long and if you don't have them on hand, you can expect your partner to send you to the store for more.
