So you need a toy. One that'll really get your flow going and make your night (or day) a bit more exciting and pleasurable, right? You're browsing the internet and you come across a few toys... and... oh hey. What's this thing? It's... kinda bluish-green... looks interesting. Oh...? Several settings? You're intrigued.

I give you the Emerald Studs Arouser.

I came across this toy while looking for a new vibrator for myself to replace my old one. It was a small one - weak and not entirely enjoyable to use. It finally broke after a hefty 3 years of service. (You were a soldier!) I hadn't really bought a toy outside of sex shops like Spencer's and Condom Kingdom - places like that, other than a masturbator sleeve from Eden. I took a dive when it was on sale for even cheaper, and frankly, I am absolutely enthralled with this item.

When I first received it, it was in discreet packaging - easy enough to handle. Your typical plastic blister pack - easily split apart to remove the toy. Resealable too, which makes it a nice reusable container for your toy. I was a little intimidated by its size at first - I knew it'd be bigger than my last toy, but my last toy was.... small. And by small I mean the new toy is a real toy. That thing was just a little stick compared to this. It took me a few days to actually get the gumption to use it.

When I did finally get it out of the package, it felt... good. It was a weighty toy, about as heavy as 7 or 8 ounces at most with batteries. I wanted to take my time, get to know my toy a bit before I used it, since I needed a little more encouragement. The toy was soft, a bit wet, and bendable! The toy, at about mid-way, is bendable, which is a REALLY good feature for me. The tip is nice and tapered; it nearly fits the dimensions of a proper glans just as any real cock would. Although, down the shaft is a different story. Once you make it down about 2 inches, it starts to have a ribbed, textured effect on it. There are about five thick ribs underneath the simulated foreskin texture (which is textured enough to be felt going in) and it becomes even more textured with a bit of a flowery, vine-like texture, ending at several nubs circling the device for possible clitoral stimulation, or just to let you know you've got most of the toy inside of you. The nubs are fairly small, so they won't provide much stimulation, but you'll know they're there.

The toy is a jelly toy - not desirable to most, but as far as I'm concerned, I've had no problems with it. I use this toy for anal play (since I'm a male) and I've yet to have it retain any smell whatsoever. I'm extremely delighted about this, as having a toy - especially one you wanna use often - retain unpleasant smells is not good. Though, this is mainly due to my up-keeping of my body. Yes people, if you use this inside of your rear, PRACTICE ENEMAS! There's nothing more unpleasant than using a toy and... well - let's not go there. I don't share this toy with anyone, as I don't use condoms with it, but I don't really intend to share it with anyone anyways. Cleaning the toy is very simple. Just use a mild soap and warm water (clean it in the shower with you! I do it a lot after I'm done using it).

Using this toy was... an experience. As my rear wasn't properly stretched, it was a chore at first to get this guy inside of me. I had to take it nice and slow, but once I finally got it inside, the realization of just how much texture was on this toy was a realization that had me needing more of it. The several settings are very good. Ranging from slow and low in all three settings to rough and tumble on both the pulsing and escalating. The constant just wasn't a setting I enjoyed, but the other two were just too good not to use! All of the settings are very very strong; it's a bit loud though, so if you're trying to be sneaky with this big boy, good luck! Because if someone is actually paying attention, then can surely hear this even over the television. I'm possibly overstating the sound levels, but my toy can sound like a jackhammer sometimes, and while I like the sound, some might not.
