I was a bit surprised when I received the Thinny Minnie. I guess I was expecting it to be a bit smaller. Still it was a pleasant surprise, and even more pleasant when I got down to business.

The Packaging
The package is kind of big. It is at least 2-3 inches longer than necessary. It is also a bit sparse on information, but then I guess little is actually needed. It has the fact that it is made of Silicone in big letters right at the top, and the toy itself is prominently displayed.

The back offers a list of all the features of the toy, and to be honest, they repeat themselves a bit. There is a little paragraph at the top, followed by a larger list of the features. Most of it is the usual spiel about silicone being hypo-allergenic, phthalate free, warms to the body, and is dishwasher safe.

The Toy
The toy itself is a mixed blessing. The large knob on the end can simulate a butt plug very well, however the shaft is smooth. I find this a bit off, given that the packaging says it has a "life-like" feeling to it. I dunno about them, but I'd prefer my "life-like" toys to have a bit more in the way of ridges or veins, to actually simulate a real penis. (And I haven't yet seen a man with a knob that flat!)

It's a semi-rigid toy. It's not as firm as a metal or solid plastic toy, yet not as limber as some I have seen. As the package says, it is rigid enough that you can use it to stimulate the G-Spot if you are a woman, or have a female partner.

I personally tried to use it to stimulate my prostate, with somewhat mixed results. I could feel it bumping against it, though I think it's not quite 100% perfect for that. Still, a pleasurable feeling is a pleasurable feeling, however you get it.

Cleanup and Material
As it says, this toy is made of silicone. If you live alone, just toss it into the top rack of your dishwasher and let if fly. Silicone won't hold bacteria or anything like lesser toys would, so you are just as safe cleaning it with soapy water in a bathroom sink. (Especially if you don't live alone. Nothing like mom finding your sex toy in the dishwasher...)

For storage, the simplest solution is just keep the plastic case it came in. It is premade and easy to use. Unless you have some other means of storing your toys. Lastly, don't forget that you can "register" your toys on the website listed on the package. It even comes with a warranty!

My Usage
I had an afternoon free when I got the toy, so I decided to take it for a spin earlier than usual. One thing about anal play, with any toy, an enema a few hours beforehand is a lifesaver for keeping clean toys. Nothing like "material" coming out with your toy. And the sensations are much more intense when you are clean.

A bit of lube works wonders with this toy, given the size. It is a bit big for using saliva as a lubricant. But that is a matter of preference I suppose. The knob feels very much like an anal plug, and can be treated in a similar fashion.

As far as the position I used the toy in, I was leaning back in a chair, with my legs up on the desk. Somewhat of a missionary position I suppose. The toy was a bit painful at first, but that was more the position I think. (And it's kinda hard to doggy yourself and masturbate, unless you are a girl!)

In all, I had a nice time, and think it's a nice dildo. It could be better, but it could also be a lot worse.
