Do you feel like masturbating has become the same old strokes to get to the same predictable end? Are you and your partner looking for a way to liven things up in the bedroom? Do you love getting hand jobs, but you just wish they had a little more excitement?

If any of this sounds familiar, a pocket pussy could be your new favorite sex toy. Read on to learn more about these masturbation sleeves and how to use one.

What Is a Pocket Pussy?

Before we dive into all the ways you can use your pocket pussy, let’s talk some about what they are. A pocket pussy is a masturbation device for folks with penises who want to recreate the experience of having penetrative sex. These toys consist of a silicone sleeve with an opening at one or both ends, sometimes encased in a plastic outer shell.

Pocket pussies often have a variety of ridges and bumps on the inside to add stimulation at key pressure points. Some are to look like an ass, a pussy, or a mouth on one end. You can find pocket pussies in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and configurations, depending on your specific needs and preferences.

Open-Ended vs. Closed-Ended

There are two basic types of pocket pussies: open-ended and closed-ended. Open-ended pocket pussies have openings at both ends, allowing you to slide the sleeve as far down on your shaft as you like. These can be a little easier to clean and, as we’ll discuss more later, offer some fun opportunities for play with a partner.

Closed-ended pocket pussies only have an opening at one end, creating a tunnel for you to use. Although closed-ended pocket pussies are a little harder to clean, they can provide a suction feeling that many people compare to the sensation of getting head. They can also provide more stimulation at the head of your penis at the same time that you’re getting pressure on the shaft.

Lube Up

The first step when you’re using a pocket pussy is to break out the lube, and don’t be shy with using it. Lube is your best friend when using sex toys, and you want to make sure the pocket pussy can slide easily over you. Silicone can get a little grippy when it’s not adequately lubed up, and no one wants that chafing.

Make sure that, if your pussy pocket is made with silicone and not TPE or TPR, you only use water-based lube, like Cake’s Toy Wonder, with it – silicone-based lube will melt silicone toys. Start by squirting plenty of lube into the pocket pussy and sliding a finger or two inside to spread it around. Then add more lube to your penis, giving yourself a stroke or two to make sure you’re all slicked up.

Slide In

Once you and your pocket pussy are adequately lubed up, it’s time for the fun to start. Position the open end of your pocket pussy (or either end, if you have an open-ended model) at the tip of your penis and start to slide in. If you feel resistance or discomfort, stop and add more lube to the pocket pussy.

Don’t worry if the pocket pussy looks too small to fit you. Like real pussies, pocket pussies can stretch to accommodate penises of almost any size without tearing or damaging them. And since most folks like a tight fit and plenty of pressure, pocket pussies are designed to be snug on average-size penises and to accommodate larger penises with no problem.

Stroke It Out

With your pocket pussy in place, what you do is totally up to what feels good to you. Many people like to start with long, slow strokes that let you feel out all the ridges and bumps inside the pocket pussy and see where you like pressure the most. You may find that squeezing in a certain spot during your stroke hits a sensitive spot you didn’t even know you had.

You can also experiment with shorter strokes close to the head of your penis or down at the base of the shaft. You may also want to try switching things up or even giving the pocket pussy a twist as you slide it up your shaft. Depending on how long you go for, you might need to pause and add more lube to keep things sliding smoothly.

Switch It Up

There are plenty of ways you can play with your pocket pussy to keep things fun and exciting. Some people like to hold Bullet Vibe to the outside of the pocket pussy for a little extra stimulation or practice edging with it. Others like to incorporate their pocket pussy into play with their partner, using open-ended versions while their partner gives them head or letting their partner use the toy to give them a mind-blowing hand job.

Cleanup

Once you’ve finished, it’s very important to clean up your pocket pussy. In particular, closed-ended pocket pussies can become breeding grounds for bacteria, mold, and mildew. No one wants that on their penis, so make sure you don’t skip this step.

If you have an open-ended pocket pussy, hold one end up to the faucet and rinse out the fluids with water and some gentle, unscented soap or Cake’s Toy Cleaner. If you have a closed-ended version, make sure you spend a little extra time getting the inside completely clean and rinsed. In either case, dry off the inside and the outside with a lint-free cloth and store it somewhere out of direct sunlight.

Start Enjoying Your Pocket Pussy

A pocket pussy can be a great way to change up your masturbation game or add a fun new element to play with a partner. Make sure you use plenty of lube, and check what your toy is made of before you use silicone lube with it. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different techniques, and always clean your pocket pussy thoroughly afterward.
