WHAT IS A HOLLOW STRAP-ON?

Very simply, a hollow strap-on is a firm dildo which is hollow on the inside and worn strapped to the pelvis with a harness to keep it in place. If the wearer has a penis, they will insert the penis into the hollow interior. The dildo is generally firm enough that even a flaccid penis can be held inside, allowing both partners to enjoy thrusting action.

WHY USE A HOLLOW STRAP ON?

There are a multitude of reasons why hollow strap-ons are fantastic

  • A larger strap-on allows you to experiment and fantasize with your partner
  • A hollow strap-on can be worn even if you can’t get or keep an erection, so it is perfect for anybody with any level erectile dysfunction
  • You can continue to penetrate your partner even after you ejaculate
  • They take away the worry of premature ejaculation
  • They allow you to experience that familiar and wonderful feeling of penetration with your partner even if you can’t get or keep an erection
  • If you don’t have a penis, you can fit a vibrator in the hollow shaft for extra sensation
  • Hollow strap-ons are lighter than a full dildo and harness combination

HOW TO CHOOSE A HOLLOW STRAP-ON

  1. Carefully look at the pictures of how the harness and dildo fit, where the straps sit, and how they are attached. Betty’s has detailed photos on each product page.
  2. If you have testicles, look for models with double straps that go between your legs to the outside of your testicles, or which otherwise accommodate bodies with testicles in their configuration.
  3. Look for the measurements on the harness to make sure it will fit your hips
  4. Consider whether the size of the dildo is the right fit for your partner – not too large or too small
  5. If available, check the measurements of the interior of the hollow shaft to ensure a good fit
  6. Larger, wider straps are going to give you a more snug, secure fit and more overall control while thrusting
  7. If you want extra sensations for both yourself and your partner, choose a vibrating model
  8. Ejaculating hollow strap-ons are a great choice for that ultimate realism

 

HOW TO USE A HOLLOW STRAP-ON

  1. Thoroughly clean the dildo before use with warm water and mild soap
  2. If you are using a vibrating or squirting model make sure it is fully charged, that the batteries are in place and working, and you have ejaculation fluid loaded and ready to go
  3. Before attempting to use your strap-on in the bedroom, try it on and adjust the straps for your comfort
  4. The straps should sit lower on your hips and then between your legs.
  5. Apply some water-based lubricant to your penis before you insert into the hollow shaft
  6. Keep communicating with your partner to make sure they are comfortable
  7. Yes, you can ejaculate in the shaft. Simply clean it out afterwards with warm water and soap

 

SOME COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT HOLLOW STRAP-ONS

Q: WHY ARE ALL HOLLOW STRAP-ONS SO FIRM?

A: We get this question a lot. The answer is simply that softer materials won’t maintain their shape when they are hollowed out. For manufacturers to add a softer outer coating to a firmer shell would make the dildos far larger than average for the person being penetrated or the hollow interior would have to be quite small for the wearer.

Q: MY PARTNER AND I NEED SOMETHING SMALLER/SOFTER THAN WHAT IS AVAILABLE. WHAT CAN WE DO?

A: Betty recommends using a standard strap-on harness and dildo which will allow you to ensure maximum comfort for your partner. Look for a harness that can sit slightly higher on the pelvis to allow your penis and testicles to hang below. Then choose a size, shape and texture of dildo that you and your partner feel most comfortable with. Betty’s expert staff can help make recommendations that will work for you.
