A little Share goes a long way…
By Misty • Sep 5th, 2008 • Category: Toy Reviews, sex tipsIt’s my intention to attempt to see a toy for all the ways it can be enjoyed – from multiple perspectives if you will – who can use it, who will it appeal to, how many ways can it be used aside from the intended market. I often find that the best toys out there can be used by a many people in many different ways.
When I first started as a SESA I was being trained on the different items we carried and the ways to sell them to our customers. I was working on the phones so I had to learn how to be extra descriptive when talking about any given item. This helped immensely as I moved from a sales associate to a buyer – how I see the item, how I recommend it be sold, etc..
But since I am on the buying end I rarely get to hear directly from customers – their feedback, criticism and, in this case, the way this item worked for them. So it makes sense that I was so thankful to have this posting passed my way. It’s from livejournal and this guy writes about his experience with the Share. I really wanted to post this and allow others access to his story as it’s true to his experience:
a very personal story, but you may benefit from hearing.
I recently purchased a new tool. “the share”
I got Share, from GoodVibes. Mainly, I’ve been having issues with a harness, and it was getting worse every time. I would have to block out putting it on, and try my best to not think about it during. Was considering getting a lola-jake prosthetic, but wasn’t convinced they’d be worth the money. I wandered into GoodVibes when I was in SF, and found the FeelDoe and the Share cocks. Intimidated to have to penetrate myself, I decided to try it. (extra fyi: Nothing’s been inside me for years, I’m just not into it)
First try was unsuccessful at getting it in. ouch. I’m glad I tried it by myself first.
I brought it home to my partner, and tried it again. with lots of lube, breathing and tolerance for a little pain. Awkward, it worked. Felt really good, and I was so grateful to not have a harness! I was having issues with my body wanting to push it out, or it wanting to come out with the thrusting movements.
Now, it’s been 4-5 times, and I’m really getting into it. It’s seriously the best ever. I got a glimpse of myself in the window reflection, and I felt complete. My partner really likes this one too, and we’ll never go back to strap-ons. And, even better is that it really hits me in the right way to get off (with ease).
the “Share” : Helping to complete this man’s transition.
