Since I'm a professional traveler, the Fleshlight series of toys have accompanied me far enough that some of mine could have their own platinum airline cards. A few even have more flight time than most First Officers (That's the co-pilot). Pleasantly, despite hundreds of trips through security, not once has the TSA agent running the x-ray machine even suggested that they noticed anything. So, with a lot of confidence, I can recommend Fleshlight toys for travelers, even if they run much larger than some other sleeve-type toys. Bring what you want to have an enjoyable trip without worrying about embarrassment. Let us now look specifically at the Lady Lager.


The Lady Lager, made by the Fleshlight folks, is part of their lesser-known "Sex In a Can" line. If you're familiar with the Fleshlight, you'll notice that these are considerably smaller and lighter, about half the weight and volume of a standard Fleshlight. This is obviously helpful for the carry-on bag. This reduced size does have some disadvantages, which I'll get to in a moment. The "can" measures about eight inches long and three inches in diameter. On the outside is a pseudo-beer label featuring several double entendres. I would say the label is only somewhat tacky and immature. The upper lid is molded in representation of a pop-top beer can. Like the Fleshlight, the outside probably won't disguise what it really is, if you're wondering. Also like the larger Fleshlights, the plastic is remarkably solid and tough. It won't break if you drop it on the bathroom floor, or down a flight of steps (yes, It happened, no, not on purpose). Both ends screw on securely, and that's important too, as I'll explain.

Going deeper... The inner sleeve is made of the really great Superskin material. One of the better sex-toy materials, Superskin has a softer feel than, say, UR3. Superskin has a smooth texture that becomes very slippery with water based lubricants. Only water-based lubricants are compatible with Superskin. At the front end is a small representation of a vulva. I mention this because, once lubricated, it provides a really nice, warm pocket to slide about on the tip of my penis as I get started. Men need foreplay too. The inside of the canal is filled with thick, round waves. Superskin holds warmth very well, staying at a pleasant temperature for around half an hour. By itself, the inner sleeve is an ordinary masturbation sleeve (think of a flaccid funoodle). Combined with the can, though, it is a really great bit of engineering.

Using the Lady Lager, the inner sleeve expands as you enter it until it reaches the inside of the can. This provides the immediate softness of the Superskin with an underlying rigidity. The feel is soft and firm at the same time. Since the rear cap seals tightly, you can adjust the suction on a range between nothing and A LOT. This, though, is the only problem. The sleeve can expand only so much in the case. Since I have a somewhat wide penis, the sleeve expands to its maximum, making it very tight. Very, very powerful at first, the large ribs can be over-stimulating, especially near orgasm. Reducing the suction by unscrewing the end cap helps, but at the moment of climax my fine motor skills go to hell. The regular Fleshlights have more room inside, so they accommodate a larger range of penis sizes. If you're on the long end, you may want more length in your toys than the 6" sleeve can provide. For me, the Lady Lager works best with a leisurely pace, which keeps the tightness from becoming overwhelming.

After play requires a little bit of care. Since Fleshlight recommends that you NOT use soap on the sleeve. I rinse it thoroughly in warm water, setting it out to dry overnight. Upon returning home, I wash the case in dish detergent and liberally wash the sleeve with isopropyl alcohol, which is compatible with Superskin. The alcohol helps ensure that the sleeve is completely dry, which it must be, before storage. Fleshlight products store neatly in their cases, which keeps the "toy box" tidy. Happy travels!
