In this extensive post, I’ll carefully cover some of the most common questions which came up about non-electric masturbation toys in general, which I have been compiling over PM and intelligent comments.
Do non-electric masturbators consist of nothing but silicone?
Now, that isn't to say that there aren't other materials in abundance, with some of the popular choices including liquid silicone, platinum silicone glass, steel, organic materials, and, there you go, platinum silicone, a somewhat niche choice and particularly popular in the world of non-electric masturbators.
The different materials in which these devices are built have their unique characteristics and functions, which is why there are a lot of options:
Different degrees of hard and soft
Many materials won't actually meet your requirements if you're looking for an ultra soft touch masturbator, in fact, lots of them are made out of regular silicone, which requires the use of a platinum silicone for the softest ones.
Differences in wear resistance do exist.
Some things are too resistant to wear and tear for you to just scrape them off and turn them into yucky paste.
Various degrees of transparency
It's a must that you change up your male masturbators because some materials were never meant to be clear.
An array of colors
White steel is the most prevalent exception, although some materials truly come in white, and others may be highlighted with laser or flash effects.
Differences in smoothness
Glass and metal are inherently smoother and will offer a variety of sensations.
Variations in thermal conductivity
This is actually connected to temperature experience because some people just enjoy colder (metal) and others warmer (glass); metal is also easier to sear while specific materials have a warming or a cooling sensation when you deform them or degrade them.
If you love going hot and cold, glass and metal tick the boxes more than other materials.
Additional attributes
Some, for instance, even take it a step further when they're crafting up their masturbation wands and they put a little bit of silver (known for its natural antibacterial properties) inside it to prevent infections.
Do the non-electric masturbators have any correlation to cost and quality?
No, you see some masturbators are expensive not necessarily because of the quality of the product, but because of how unique that masturbator is in comparison to others out there…so even if you did want to find something of similar quality and a lower price, it’s really improbable.
Some people have the opinion that these masturbators are better the more expensive they get, but it’s just not true! Overinflated prices on certain masturbators just may be opportunistic marketing plans to sell to an ignorant public.
Of course a masturbation stick may conceivably be worth paying more or less for in larger or lesser measure as some may have the really worthwhile experiences but also the ones which are materially disappointing at higher price ranges. By the end of a day, the powerful quality of a well-priced blown product is extremely disappointing.
Much like with high end beauty and skincare, some believe that expensive masturbation sticks are better from the get-go, while others passionately disagree. After all, costly doesn't always mean they're good.
Isn’t a manual masturbator technically more and more safe the more expensive it is?
Masturbation sticks really can be quite safe, and great as it might be to think more expensive is necessarily more safe, it simply isn't across the board.
Many cheap masturbation sticks have safe inspection reports that provide very succinct reports for the necessary standards. That they are cheap does not necessarily mean low quality, just that I don't see enough of them or ones like them.
In addition, raw materials for the masturbation sticks must also be used for other medical products including surgery, so they are a safe choice.
There are no reputable stories of anyone experiencing serious health problems after years of use with a non-electric stroker.
So as long as you’re buying your masturbators from well-known brands you don’t need to worry too much about safety.
Safety testing histories are generally available for the top brands. If you are in any doubt, however, you can always ask the vendor for his test report after you have purchased the masturbator.
Is it normal for the non-electric one to be a tinge sticky?
Feeling sticky when touched doesn’t have to mean cheap! For example, the softer the silicone, the more chance there is of stickiness. With the emergence of a variety of silicone's positive values, many of today's manufacturers of latex stickers use silicone to help defuse potential skin irritation that might occur with non-adhesive latex stickers.
the sticker does not affect the normal use of the bad dude and do not feel it and feel unwell when you masturbate.
At least, I assume it's an adhesive; for the lazy or uninspired masturbator, it has the unfortunate side effect of sticking to stray hairs during the off-season. From there, you may want to know if soft, non-sticky masturbation sticks exist.
Indeed, such options are available! But the retail price is going to have to be adjusted upwards for all the material replacement and added cost.
Will my non-electric masturbator come with a storage bag?
Absolutely! Use a dedicated storage bag for your masturbation stick, do not store it with other masturbation equipment or items. Silicone based masturbation sticks are also not resistant to degradation when brought into contact with other organic materials and thus requires a protective storage bag.
The reason for this concern is the inherent characteristics of the materials. I have once consulted with a specialist of organic substance in the past, where they explained this phenomenon called 'Organic Mutual Solubility', and apparently, organic matters have the tendency to dissolve each other, this can't be avoided.
For example, rubber ruler and plastic ruler should be put away separately, because if they stick together for a long time, it’s very hard to separate them.
Therefore, a non-electric masturbation stick definitely has to be accommodated in a receptacle; and a receptacle to hold the stick cannot be a bag containing two such sticks.
And if you place an organic material masturbation stick next to a plastic one for a long time, it will eventually start to degrade.
Mutual solution: Light reflection will make the masturbation rod value change, and long-term pressure is prone to deformation so that it is not available.
Non-electric masturbators can indeed produce oil.
They can get greasy, silicone, organic etc…all the different kinds of masturbation wands. Platinum silicone, which is a bit pricier, will slowly release oil over time.
This oil isn't going to hurt you (unless it comes from a janky-ass jerk-off sleeve).
So it is recommended to go for a good quality masturbation stick initially and don't try to buy them that are crafted in small workshops.
The same should be done in the case of the masturbator, which must also be left to dry for a while, and once the surface moisture has ceased to be present, the toy should be dusted with a power to not have the oil encroaching.
Can the clog source of the oil be located?
True, a considerable amount of investment will be required to improve the production and material technology, but if it ends up prohibitively expensive, then it won’t be available to enough people.
The best way to keep the oil issue at bay is to lather copious amounts of powder onto the jerking stick. When maintaining it later, this method is still not one hundred percent, but certainly better than not even trying.
