Advances in dildo technology

(Yes, it’s going to be about dildos, specifically as used for anal pleasure, still more specifically as used for this purpose by gay men. So there will be talk, in plain language, about male bodyparts and sexual acts, both solo and between men. This posting is then not suitable for kids or the sexually modest.)

The Daily Jocks ad from yesterday (2/17) continues DJ’s exploration of sextoys for men (“Macho Toys”; see my 2/14 posting “Macho toys: the ads”). The mailer came under the header:

Would you take Jake home? 👨🏻

with the main text:

MEET JAKE – 8.5″ UNCUT

Have you ever tried an uncut dildo before? Neither had we until we found Jake. This super lifelike dildo is made from high grade body safe silicone, so real you will barely notice the difference.

Dildos in the form of uncut cocks have been on the market for a while, but what sets Jake apart is that his foreskin is flexible — apparently, a step forward in dildo technology. (Yes, there will be photos.)

[Digression. Yesterday, which brought me Jake, was Ash Wednesday, the first of the 40 days of Lent, a religious season whose purpose, according to Wikipedia,

is the preparation of the believer for Easter through prayer, doing penance, mortifying the flesh, repentance of sins, almsgiving, simple living and self-denial.

I find it hard to think, right off the top of my head, of anything more at odds with the spirit of Lent — anything less penitential, flesh-mortifying, or self-denying — than the celebration of a flexible-foreskin dildo for gay men.]

The main page of the ad has a looping video of a male hand flexing Jake’s foreskin. If you click on that image you get a fuller text and a sequence of three still shots:

Macho Toys: Jake 8.5″ Lifelike Uncut Dildo. Sale price $60.00

Cast from a real model, this incredibly lifelike 8.5″ dildo with foreskin will leave you gasping for more.

With a firm but flexible shaft and a realistic feel, it is so close to the real thing you’ll barely notice the difference.

Made from a high-grade body friendly silicon thats odour free.  Once you’ve tried him out, we guarantee you will come back for more, time and time again. [Here I puzzle; see comment below.]

8.5″ length, 5.5″ girth


(#1) Jake’s foreskin in normal position, his dickshaft firmly grasped by Daddy’s fist


(#2) Daddy flexes Jake’s foreskin, as if so fully retract it, with one hand, while his other hand grasps Jake’s base


(#3) Jake stands in magnificent splendor, unattended, but kept firmly in place by his suction cup

(In the future, Jake’s designers might turn their attention from Jake’s realistic dickhead to his balls, whose wrinkling looks utterly unnatural.)

Previously on this blog, two relevant postings.

— from my 8/2/16 posting “The dildo days of summer”:

The illustrations, beginning with an ad for a Channel 1 Releasing sale on pornstar dildos, are in an AZBlogX posting “The forest of dildos” (an apt description of #1 in that posting). The dildos in #1 are high-fidelity replicas of the cocks of particular pornstars, reproduced in loving detail (though the balls look pretty much generic to me, but then their function is mostly as a backstop), right down to realistic skin tones — a significant advance on earlier cock-shaped sex toys, which typically came only in two colors, pink and black, neither of them particularly lifelike.

… #2 on AZBlogX has a set of fairly realistic traditional (anonymous) dildos in four skin tones, black and three food-oriented hues (coffee, caramel, vanilla).

#3 there has four “posable” dildos, highly stylized dicks, in extravagant colors — almost as far as you can get from #1. (Not all the way, since the toys in #3 have stylized dickheads.)

General notes on dildos. A dildo is an object used for sexual stimulation by penetration (of vagina or anus), hence is unavoidably phallic in shape; but of course nothing requires that it simulate a penis in any detail, and some users prefer that it not — while others, in particular [many] gay men, very much prefer that it do. These are men who want to venerate the penis as an object, and especially to revere the specific cocks of men they have seen in sex, in gay porn.

… Pornstar dildos allow men who are so inclined to worship cocks they have admired and desired on film or video, now at first hand, but without the possible physical awkwardnesses of engagement with the actual cock: to enjoy sex with a fabulous fantasy partner. Once the dildo is within your body, of course, its appearance is pretty much irrelevant to your satisfaction, but many men get a charge from engaging with the magic of the imagined partner.

—  from my 2/10/19 posting “The thinking condom’s typeface”:

In … postings about pornstar dildos and flesh-colored dildos (for various shades of flesh), I stressed that preferences for (or aversions to) particular sextoys in these families were matters of the psychology of their users — since the sexcavities themselves, lacking the perceptual apparatus to judge dildos (even in the light), had no opinions on the subject.

As far as the physical sensations go, the appearance of a dildo makes no difference. Fucking myself with a black dildo feels no different than fucking myself with the same model in white; any difference in response comes down to “engaging with the magic of the imagined partner” above.

Similarly for cut vs. uncut dildos. They feel the same within my body (as do otherwise comparable cut vs. uncut real cocks; my guy Jacques was uncut, but I couldn’t tell that when he was fucking me); any difference in response comes down to the magic of the imagined partner again.

And that brings me back to Jake, the uncut dildo with a flexible foreskin. Who apparently has a lot of magic, over any ordinary uncut dildo: “Once you’ve tried him out, we guarantee you will come back for more, time and time again.” I can see the magic in an uncut dildo over a cut one (I don’t experience this magic myself, but I can understand how someone else would feel that way). But the magic in one kind of uncut dildo over a minimally different other kind eludes me. Maybe some guys think that the flexible foreskin is enough to make that style of uncut dildo emotionally more real than your run-of-the-mill uncut dildo. Well, sexual excitement and satisfaction can hang on tiny things.
