What is a Flogger?
This is one of the several sex toys used during BDSM. The others include spank paddles and whips. While the paddles are flat-surfaced and whips have one tail, floggers are like whips with multiple tails. They usually have handles that can be made from various rigid (or flexible) materials, with many tails. The tail is what is used to create the painful, yet pleasurable sensation on the skin of the submissive partner. The tail could be made from various materials too like faux leather, metal, silicone, or fabric. The main goal of BDSM flogging is to arouse the submissive partner by -well- flogging him or her with the toy. The flogging would create painful sensations that would be interpreted as pleasure for BDSM lovers. To make the sensation even more explosive, the partner can be blindfolded so that he/she doesn’t know when to expect the landing of the flogger. When using this device, it is advisable to create a safe word between each other (that is easy to remember and sensual). The safe word can be mentioned when it starts to get painful, uncomfortable or you just need a break. There are different types of the flogger and though they look the same, they can’t be used by the same set of people.
Some Popular Types
In one word, they all look alike. So, design isn’t one of the things that differentiate one flogger from another. It is the different materials used to make each one and the size. Some are made from very rigid materials while others are made from more flexible ones. The sizes also differ in width and length of both the handle and the whips. Here are the common types available in the market.
- Leather Floggers: Leather is thick and long-lasting. But it can be a bit hard on the skin. Some leathered materials are much softer such as faux leather. With these types, you can be assured that your flogger will stay with you and your partner for a long time. But it might require a bit of getting used to, to fully enjoy the sensations from the leather flogger.
- Silicone Floggers: It is almost impossible to find a sex toy that isn’t made from silicone. It is the most common material used in the sex toy world. Not only is it a body-safe material, but it is also very gentle on the skin. The whips of the flogger would lead to little or no marking after landing on soft skin tissues. They can appear in several color variations to satisfy your kink.
- Metal Floggers: This sums up all metal-related materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, gold plates, silver plates, copper, and so on. The whips are made from these materials and so they are harsher than the rest of the types mentioned. However, unlike genera beliefs, they are safe to use and do not cause skin bruises and tear when used properly. It’s also advisable to be interactive with your partner during the use of this type.
- Fabric Floggers: These are the softest of all the materials used to make floggers. The materials can be doubled or woven to be able to drag through air, but they still cause the softest sensations. They are safe for beginners and easy to wash and dry. They are not as long-lasting as metal or leather floggers but they are a good place to start if you are unsure about where to begin.
- Short Floggers: Based on sizes, your BDSM sex toy can have a shorter length of whips. These drag through the air faster and thereby cause more pain when it lands on skin tissue. They are identified by their shorter-than-average whip length which could be about 6 to 8 inches.
- Long Floggers: Longer types are less painful because they drag through the air much slower than shorter ones. They are usually much longer than the average size of a flogger. A long one is usually about 10 to 15 inches long. Some could be longer but then they lose the purpose for their creation because the longer they get, the less pain it can create. Very long floggers are also harder to control than shorter ones.
How to Choose the Best Flogger?
No matter the criteria we set for choosing the best sex toy, it usually comes down to what makes you and your partner enjoy sex even better than before. That’s the goal, to reach a level of orgasm and pleasure that has not been unlocked before. Although in this section we would introduce the things you need to consider before buying a flogger, it is still up to you and your partner to make the final decision. Before settling on a material, speak to your partner about allergies and possible skin reactions to any of the material. If you are both new to cane BDSM, it is best, to begin with, flexible and soft materials before moving to higher levels like metal floggers. The length is also based on the level of experience of both partners.
How to use?
This is a perfectly normal question to ask, especially if you are new to cane BDSM and its practices. It is quite easy to use it: simply lift your hands and wipe the skin as you would naturally when you flog. However, since you are not being violent (you want to arouse your partner), it is best, to begin with, light flogs.
The area for BDSM flogging is the butt, palm, thighs, and other fat-concentrated areas of the body. Keep away from flogging the face, neck, or tummy. To add a little kink, you can lightly brush your partner’s pelvic area, clitoris, or penis with the flogger. After every use of your BDSM sex toy, you should always keep it clean by washing it with mild soap and lukewarm water. And when it is dry, you can store it in a safe space free from dust, mold, moisture, and direct sunlight. Inside your wardrobe isn’t a bad place to begin.
Safety Precautions to Follow
What’s the point of investing in a toy that would lead to bruises, tears, and pain? Floggers can be used without causing any of these. To prevent tears or markings on the skin during flogging, partners can cover themselves with lube or oil to make the body stretchier than it would be without it. If the sound of covering yourself in oil does not sound sexy, you can rub the lube or oil only on the area where you would be sensually flogged. Finally, create a safe word such as bunny, red, or any fetish word you can think of. The safe word helps to keep things under control and prevent the submissive partner from experiencing more pain than pleasure.
