I have always known I could be attracted to both sexes, but I found and married the love of my life who happened to be a straight woman. Decidedly monogamous and faithful, there were certain curiosities that I thought I would never experience.

Then we learned of the practice of pegging and the search was on for an appropriate dildo and harness. While I wanted to be pegged to explore my alternate sexuality, I still wasn't entirely comfortable with my Bi side. Or maybe I was afraid my hetero lover would be too weirded out by the more realistic dildos toward which my desires were gravitating. So, I chose the Tantus Curve. Unrealistic enough but familiarly shaped.

The first experience had me writhing, talking and changing positions, every angle feeling pleasurable and exciting. However, It was a slow and careful experience, during subsequent sessions I wanted her to be more vigorous.

To both of our surprises, she really got into doing me fast and hard, while I was begging for more.

There was a slight problem though, which was during the deepest thrusts, it felt like the head was banging against something firm and it was a little painful. I am too new to know what exactly is going on anatomically. Changing positions so that the curve is facing a different direction didn't seem to help. The pain wasn't so bad that I asked her to stop or slow down by any means, in fact I didn't tell her until much later. I'm wondering if the abrupt angle change near the base forces the head up too fast during hard thrusts.

Silicone is always pleasing to touch.

The Curve has mild bumps on the inside of the curve. I haven't really felt them yet, but I'm just learning about "texture."

I do feel the "pop" of the head during insertion and the pleasing pressure of the head on each out stroke. With the proper amount of anal lube, the Curve glides in and out very sensuously.

The head is a little firm and gave me a slightly unpleasant bump during the firmest and deepest thrusting. Okay, it was really pounding by my excited wife as I spread my cheeks and pushed back hard against each stroke, or threw my legs over her shoulders and pulled her hips tight.

I don't have anything to compare the Curve with since it is my first dildo. However, after looking at videos of other dildos, I want something with a squishier head and more flexible shaft. Or maybe I should say uni-directionally flexible. The Curve is very flexible in the same direction of its curve, there is much more resistance in the opposite direction.

The Curve worked very well for us in a SpareParts Joque Harness.

During solo play, the big base is easy to grasp for thrusting. However, it can be frustrating if you get lube on your hand because the base will spin in your hand causing the Curve to go in a direction you may not want it to go. More often than not, it goes away from that "OOOOh! Right there!" spot.

The Curve is all silicone, so water based anal lube works really well. As with any silicone toy, stay away from silicone lube.

While the Curve is my first dildo, it isn't my first silicone toy. As with all the others, clean up with anti-bacterial soap. I've been using anti-bacterial dish washing soap. I run water in the sink, suds up the dish soap, and let the silicone toys soak for an hour or so to let the anti-bacterial properties do their work and ensure clean, no-odor toys.
