Session 4
Today’s session was better than Monday’s, but still not quite as good as either of the first two. I think the main reason these last two have not been as good is my level of arousal. I think I must have been more aroused the first two times. I was more aroused today than on Monday, and that helped, but I was also tired. I went to bed late last night, I woke up early this morning, and I exercised more than usual. So I think I was a bit drained as well, which offset some of my arousal.
I did a couple things differently this time:
– I used an eye mask to keep out the daylight. That was helpful. I did see light, but more a “seeing stars” kind of light due to the stimulation I was getting from my Aneros in the more intense bits.
– I warmed the lube and Aneros beforehand. That made things more comfortable in the beginning
I began my session more relaxed than on Monday. This was probably partially just because I was tired, but I also avoided thinking about work or other stress-inducing topics and generally tried to remain relaxed an mellow from the time I took my post-workout shower and the time I began my session. This helped me get “in the zone” more quickly. I was able to shut out the outside world and focus on what my body was feeling. The eye mask helped with this as well.
Had a wet orgasm
Was trying for a super o and ended up having a wet o. Wondering if I was applying too much pressure during the session. Many talk about a super o and very gentle slow movements of the aneros. Any thoughts?
What Is Success?
In my previous post, I talked a little bit about how I define success. The session I was describing was not, in fact, all that pleasurable. And yet, I consider it a success anyway. Why is that? What does “success” mean, and how do we define the criteria for achieving it?
I began learning to play the violin almost 2 years ago. At first I learned quickly, because there were many “easy” basic things to learn. Progress felt quick and natural. But before long, my seemingly rapid development slowed. I hit a plateau. I couldn’t get my hands and arms to behave. I practiced the same tunes and exercises over and over and made the same mistakes each time. I didn’t seem to be getting anywhere. In fact, at times it seemed I was moving backward! And so I became very discouraged and frustrated.
Around this time, I read a book called Brain Rules For Baby. There is also a book by the same author called Brain Rules which is more geared toward adults. I read and highly recommend both. The author, John Medina, is a developmental molecular biologist, so the content is science- and data-based, but the books are very accessible and easy to read.
Session 3
I started my session this morning after exercising, bathing, and practicing my violin. I also checked my work email and went over the more important messages to make my life easier when I got to work. That may have been a mistake, which I’ll get into later.
I lubed up, shooting a little Shibari in as pre-lubrication and applying a dab of Boy Butter H2O on the Helix to ease insertion. I mentioned in an earlier post that I might try this. I’m not sure that the results have been affected by any of the three methods of lubrication I’ve tried. Mobility of the Aneros did not seem limited in any of them. Granted, I have only tried each method once, so it’s hardly scientific. I may try each again and figure out which I prefer.
One thing I think I may try next time is warming the lube and/or the Aneros. The lube was pretty cold and it gave me a bit of a crampy feeling until it reached an equilibrium temperature with my body. Not the most pleasant sensation, and I’d prefer to avoid it in the future. It might have decreased my level of arousal somewhat, and that’s not helpful.
I laid on my back on a towel on my bed, naked except for the glans cover I’ve been using. I thought about foregoing its use this time, but it really does keep the (potential) mess contained, and it helps prevent stimulation to my glans that might be distracting. So I think I’ll probably just continue to use it for the foreseeable future. I pulled the covers over me because the bedroom was cold and tried to relax.
Wiki page alternative?
It seems like the [wiki page](http://wiki.malegspot.com/index.php?title=Main_Page) seemed to have covered a lot of aneros and prostate play in general. The page seems to be inactive now, and having searched some older posts on the subreddit, a lot of users recommended it as a good overall guide.
Is there an alternative to this page, or another source that can be used?
Apologies if I missed an obvious post answering my question. Thanks
Session 3
I had my second Aneros session this morning. Let me preface my recounting of it with a few admissions of guilt:
– It was a very long session. I went against the advice of more experienced users who recommended sticking closer to 30 minutes. All told, I had my Aneros in for 3.5 hours.
– It was not actually my second time using the Aneros. I slipped it in one other time between this session and the first as a way of increasing arousal during sex with my spouse. But I don’t really count that as a “session” because I wasn’t focused on the specific sensations the Aneros may have been generating. I wasn’t practicing Aneros.
– Which leads to my third and final confession: After having done that, I was advised by someone to keep Aneros sessions and sex with someone else (or masturbation) separate until I had more experience. I think this advice makes sense and I will follow it in the future, but I didn’t follow it this morning.
They say confession is good for the soul. I don’t know about that, really, but I do know that I want this blog to be as truthful and accurate as possible. Maybe others will learn from my experiences. I hope that I will also learn, both by putting the experiences into words, which forces me to think more deeply about them, and by looking back at the mistakes and successes I have along the way. So yes, at the risk of shame and public recrimination, I will freely admit when I do something that may be unwise or counterproductive.
“The Soda-Pop Analogy”
Introduction
Well, I made it to another Day 7 of SR! I decided to sleep in my XO “chastity cup” overnight. As expected, I was awakened about 4:00 AM with a strong erection. As I began to dwell on the fact that I felt so good but was unable to masturbate or ejaculate, I became more and more frustrated. (If there is a stronger word, I would gladly use it). I began to think about something tangible so that I could describe the feeling. Here is what I came up with…..
Analogy
The analogy I discovered was that of a soda-pop bottle (like a 2-liter one). With every passing day while in semen retention, the bottle is shaken-up a little bit more. By Day 7, the bottle is violently shaken and all the while, pressure is building-up inside it. The bottle actually gets quite hard from the internal pressure developed. Anyone that has attempted to open a bottle which has been shaken-up in this way knows that a “surprise” is in store for them when they open it! Namely, when the pressure is released, soda comes gushing-out everywhere!
Isn’t this a good comparison to the practice of semen retention? I think so. Of course, the analogy is quite simple: The cap on the bottle is my chastity cup and my practice of semen retention. The shaking is my arousal which comes at regular intervals. An Aneros session while wearing a chastity cup would qualify as well. Removal of the cap is my removal of the cup and hence the desire and yearning and anticipation of an ejaculation. And the gushing-forth, well we all know what that represents!
HOLY SH*T! Aneros Progasm Jr. 😝
Still buzzing now an hour later after that AMAZING session.
BELOW IS MY JOURNEY TO THE SUPER-O
So im an 18 year old guy and I have always been curious about anal play. Last year, I finally gave in and decided to experiment on different anal plugs etc. until i found out about the SUPER-O and aneros…
So i decided to browse my local sex stores online(New Zealand btw) and found a 50% off sale on the Aneros Progasm. 2 days later i recieved the package and went straight to action.
I lubed up and forced this bad boy in (this was by far the biggest thing i have put up my ass) Also I had no educational experience whatsover on how to achieve prostate orgasms, all i knew was it should be a plug and play kinda thing and it will send you straight to orgasm heaven right?? Well, after session after session of failure i finally gave up… Out of frustration I threw away my progasm (I know its stupid) and decided to stay away from anal play for a while.
A year later here i am now. Again i gave in and decided to give Aneros another shot so i bought an Aneros Porgasm JR. I have browsed all the forums and read on all of the techniques to give myself a confidence boost that this time it might work. I realised from experimentation through my fingers that my prostate was far lower than expected.
First Session
I got a chance to try out my Helix Trident. Here are some of my thoughts from this first experience.
My first impression upon unboxing my Helix Trident was that it was a LOT smaller than I was expecting. I bought the Helix because it was described as having a “Larger head size for more direct pressure on the prostate.” I was expecting something, well, larger. I guess I had no real frame of reference. I admit to being skeptical that I’d really feel much of anything from something so seemingly diminutive. It’s certainly the smallest thing that I’ve inserted in my rear for pleasure other than my finger in a very long time.
I wasn’t sure which lube to use. I know that’s a common question and the answer varies greatly from person to person. For anal sex and for other toys, I really like the water-based variety of Boy Butter. It is a cream or lotion consistency, which I find makes application much easier. It dissolves easily in water, so cleanup is not a problem, but it also doesn’t dissipate, evaporate, or absorb into my skin as quickly as other lubes I have used. However, it also isn’t quite as slick as liquid lubes I’ve used. I find this is a good thing for other anal toys and for anal sex, where some amount of friction (the “right” amount) is actually desirable, but perhaps not for the Aneros, where free mobility is key. So I opted for Shibari silicone lube, which I prefer for my Fleshlight. It’s slicker and runnier than the Boy Butter and is probably a better fit for use with the Aneros. I may in the future try some of both, by first pre-lubing my rectum with Shibari and coating the Aneros with the Boy Butter, just for grins.
