"Glow In The Dark" gets a workout....

sol in position for "Glow In The Dark"


Last Monday I decided to give the Glow In The Dark strapon harness a try:


That's not it's name LOL. I can't actually recall the brand. The name stuck after it's encounter with airport security. But in terms of construction, it consists of a large hard plastic glow in the dark dildo permanently attached to a wide white elastic waist band. There are thinner elastic cords that go between the legs.

Hmmm. There was my first problem with the harness: the fact you can't remove the dildo from the harness for cleaning. And white??? Problem No 2: any messy play and you'd have very nasty permanent stains on your white harness.

I also had concerns that the elastic waist band would not support the weight of the dildo:


Which is greatly increased by the fact it contains two batteries to run the vibrator component. So in case I was unable to fuck wearing it we tried the dildo in Sax's Diva Harness:


It certainly fitted in to the harness but Problem No 3: the fact that the white elastic waistband can't be removed means you've got to sort of bundle the band up out of the way, if you try to use the dildo in another harness - you can see sol trying to do this in the photo above.

You can see in the photo about how the harness sits, in the photo below:


It was quite comfortable, and certainly the elastic makes getting in and out fast. BUT then I hit Problem No 4: you can see the vibrator cord and control box tucked into the elastic waistband in that photo. I can tell you right now that that bloody attachment cord became a right pest during play. If I use the harness again I am going to make sure I have some kind of clip for the cord, and hanging container around my neck for the actual control box.

Sol then went through a similar enema routine to my last strapon play post. He was still feeling a little uncomfortable after the second one, so we waited a while. Then sol placed a condom on the dildo and lubed it, and I placed sol into the position I desired:


I have been suggesting people online to use specific positions for first strapon play. I decided to try a position that I haven't been suggesting, that's easy for most people to do: on the bed, knees up, resting on cushions. In sol's case I added some handcuffs to make life more interesting. Next to me was a tray with things I was going to need:


This included lube, loo paper (in case of accidents, and to clean up quickly), sex towels, rubber gloves, condoms etc. I placed a large towel under sol's ass, tucked over his feet. You can also see some veterinary elasticized bandage in the bottom left corner. As this provides great support, and had been so useful as a thigh harness, I had the idea of winding it around the dildo's white waistband and my waist and legs to give more support during fucking, if needed.

I snapped on the gloves, lubed up sol, myself and a small pink vibrator and spent several very pleasant minutes introducing my fingers and the vibrator into sol:


Problem No 5 was that my close proximity to the bed, when positioned on my knees, meant that the dildo head kept brushing against the towel, and had to be relubed before entry.

However when I came to insert the dildo sol informed me his lower intestine was still feeling full. Aware that we might encounter a bit of a rush of water on withdrawal of the dildo we decided to call a halt to proceedings... sometimes it just ain't gonna happen....

We picked up again the following weekend: everything the same as above. Except this time I had no problem with entry of the dildo. I pushed in slowly, to the point of discomfort, then exited, then re-entered, this time without discomfort. I was very impressed with sol taking the entire dildo, as it was quite large and hard.

Problem 6 was that I discovered I was slightly incorrectly positioned. Next time before entry, I'll kneel behind sol, get my knees in the right place on the bed for complete insertion, and make sure I don't move from that position.

Fully inserted, I thrust gently for a while. I needed to keep my hand wrapped around the base of the dildo to keep it in position. I was just about to turn on the vibrator when sol informed me it was time to come out. It wasn't his ass so much as his knees and neck, in that particular position. Talking the scene over later we think that if I'd told sol at this point that the dildo was fully in and that I was about to turn on the vibrator, he'd had lasted a few minutes longer. But I didn't think to do that, being focused on removing the dildo quickly.

Afterwards, cleaning was a bit of a pain, as the lube was all over the waistband (the section where it attaches to the dildo) and I nearly forgot to remove the batteries - they didn't get wet but possibly could. Using a condom certainly cut down on mess.

So, my final thoughts on this harness:

I purchased this harness as an example of a cheap style that was unlikely to work. I planned to use it in my strapon play workshops, to show why this style doesn't work ... and I think that's a perfect fate for it.

It looks good prior to play, the cock juts out nicely, and it's a nice large cock. But the elasticized waistband doesn't give the support needed during penetration, the cock is very hard and the head round (makes penetration harder) and cleaning is a bitch.

Don't buy one like this, readers.
