Hey everyone! I'm back with another one of my guides, it's been a while since I wrote one and shared my knowledge, if you are new round here I will link my other guides at the end, we've grown so much too, welcome everyone new to this wonderful community ☺️

This guide will talk about the in's and outs of edging safely with and without sex toys, enjoying the process without feeling embarrassed or ashamed, consent and the issues regarding edging addiction. Let's get into it!

Staying physically safe while edging!

Let's start by saying as far as kinks go edging is considered a very safe practice, there really isn't too much that can harm you but there are things you should take into consideration

🟢 Staying Hydrated!!!

This is probably the most important and simple way to stay safe while enhancing your experience. When you edge wether your ploughing a fleshlight, sinking a dildo into you, even just using your hands or gently rubbing through your clothes it's a physical activity like anything else, you still need to stay hydrated right! You leak a lot while edging, that liquid has to come from somewhere haha so try your best to always keep a bottle of water near by and when your on a break after an edge just have a drink, such an easy thing but I bet 90% you ignore it haha 😅

🟢 Desensitisation!

This can get particularly bad if you're use to edging flat out for hours a night stroking or fingering at light speed with no lube or anything. You can actually desensitise your cock or pussy if you go too hard without a barrier of lube and you may find if you already have started to desensitise yourself that you might struggle to get to the edge at all with normal speed movements, if that is the case then give yourself a break from edging for a few days or longer, let your cock or pussy recover before slowly getting back into it.

There is also something called Death Grip Syndrome which can occur due to stroking in this manner, if you edge with an overly firm and aggressive grip it can desensitise you very quickly to the point some men simply can't orgasm during sex so please be careful with how you approach edging, take it easy and relax into the feelings even if it takes you longer to get there it's worth it ☺️

Use lube! For those long lonnnnng sessions we all love I can't stress enough how important it is to have a barrier there to stop that chafing against skin on skin, for the guys going dry I'd recommend taking a look at "Albolene" it's a fantastic edging aid, slippery and lasts hours it will change the game for you if you are a dry stroker. And girls if you use powerful vibrations to edge your clit please also do take care, the clit is super sensitive towards vibrations, if it's like that all night on and off you could be desensitising yourself without even knowing it so take a break from your vibe occasionally, it'll help you out in the long run hehe ☺️

🟢 Using toys!

Like many other things in the kink space edging uses sex toys to enhance the experience for everyone but there are still a number of things you should look out for when using them. Let's start with Fleshlights! You really can't go wrong with them from a safety perspective, use only water based lube to not damage the material and to avoid ripping your skin (ouch) and make sure the toy you are using is clean and body safe, we don't want any mold growing in there

Cock rings! These are a little trickier but all in all a safe toy to use, firstly make sure the sizing is correct for your cock, it should have just a little tightness around your cock, if it's too small it will trap the blood flow far too much and if used like that for long periods of time can cause serious problems so don't do that. It's also important to note you must put a cockring on while soft or semi erect, use a little bit of lube to avoid chafing and you're good to go! But remember these toys are for short bursts, 30 minutes max before you should take it off and let things recover.

We touched on vibrations earlier so I won't go into too much detail here, just make sure they are made from body safe material and try not to desensitise yourself with the more powerful ones ☺️

Anal toys! I'm sure a lot of us have been enjoying anal play for a while now but if your just getting started here's a few tips to stay safe, firstly lube is your best friend, you simply cannot put enough on the toy or your fingers. When you're picking your first toy start small, start with plugs or a small smooth dildo, you have to slowly work your way up into bigger toys with anal play. Please don't force yourself, you'll just end up hurting your ass.

Staying mentally safe while edging

🟢 Feeling ashamed or embarrassed.

This isn't necessarily a safety concern however it does need talked about. Edging is amazing, edging is a beautiful thing that can really enhance the pleasure and enjoyment of your masturbation but some people feel like if they do it too much they get embarrassed about it, well im here to tell you that you shouldn't, we have 110k people all enjoying it and that number is growing day by day! You don't have to feel ashamed because someone told you once that you masturbate too much or no one else you know does it, what do they know haha, we know it feels far better than your average masturbation session, and we know the amount of benefits edging has over normal masturbation too!

You do what you want, we're never gonna judge you here for enjoying the kink we all love, wether you do it 10 minutes a week or 3 hours a night! Think of it as your secret little hobby, I look forward to my edging sessions, no one needs to know I do them, it's for me only and that's how you should always enjoy edging, it's a completely personal thing so don't get embarrassed when you think you're doing it too much or it's not normal, if you love it then enjoy it ☺️

🟢 Feeling like you aren't edging well enough

If you've ever been on the subreddit and seen posts like "I edge for a week and I'm so horny!!" Or "I've just completed NNN edging every day!!" And you are laying there struggling to push past an hour without cumming don't worry!

Edging takes so much control, practice, patience and above all else will power. So yes it can take a while to build up that confidence and skill to push past your current limits but you can do it! Don't feel inadequate because you can't edge for a week, it's totally personal, your hour could be someone's week, it differs from person to person and whatever your limit is currently is amazing 🥰

🟢 Consent!

This is HUGE! This is probably the most important thing, just because you're talking online with people doesn't mean consent goes out the window, firstly proof of age is a must, if it's not clearly defined on their profile then that's the first question you ask, if someone you talk too is under age please report them to the mods, we will ban them immediately from participating in the subreddits.

Please don't just assume because it's someone you find hot that they will want to talk to you, ask first and if it's a no then it's a NO. DM'ing people is fine if they say so however please set boundaries and limits first, respect the other person's boundaries and limits as well and go from there, don't just send a picture on the first message, it's not cool and no one likes that.
