My FreeToM

So a little while ago I bought myself a FreeToM rouge 5.5 for packing, peeing and maybe sex purposes. I’ve had it a little under two weeks, and must admit I am very thoroughly impressed. It packs well, I have had absolutely no issues peeing with it at all. Not a single bit of leakage or backflow any time I have used it, even first thing in the morning or after a few beers. I’m very happy with using it at urinals and around other men, I hope to continue as I am currently and without incident! When I pee all I do is pull it over boxers and push the balls up while pointing down and opening the hidden pee hole with a gentle squeeze

Packing with it is awesome, it looks bulky but when it’s in a good position, it sits well and I have no problems. If it sits right, it looks natural, if I get the position wrong or I’m not wearing tight pants, it does look like a semi 😂 I live in skinny jeans, and it’s not obscenely huge as a bulge, it looks pretty normal

I forgot the rod when I was planning to use it for sex reasons, so although it’s thick silicone, I feel like it definitely needs the rod in order for penetration otherwise it is just not hard enough to do what it’s meant to! Condoms are most definitely a must when it comes to play though. I will admit, there’s something natural about being able to just pull my dick out of my pants and just go without fumbling around with harnesses and all of that rubbish though. I have yet to make up my mind fully about sexual use, will probably have a better opinion once I use it with the rod 🙄

I have three peecock harnesses, although I prefer to use a jock strap with a hole, they all work the same but the jock strap method is far cheaper and in many ways can be more comfortable

I would 100% definitely buy another FreeToM product after my experience with this one, I don’t think I could really be more satisfied, especially after the disasters I have had with almost every other of my stp’s.

My only real complaints about my FreeToM are from how long it took to get to me. Even with express international delivery, it took a very long time to get here. Once it had arrived in the UK, it was then taken and thoroughly investigated by UK customs who I then had to pay import duty and a little extra ‘handling fee’ because they’d opened my package. Literally. Cheeky bastards. I went for the Caucasian option for flesh tone, but I feel it is very yellow against my skin tone, and although I do wish I had chosen darker, nobody really looks at your dick at a urinal so I don’t care that much at all. Only other tiny issue is that because of international postage, they have to state what is in the box. Thankfully all it said was ‘silicone prosthetic’, but again, that’s not really an issue at all.

I have tried peecock, no1 stp, no1 model D sport, a modified mr limpy, and now FreeToM and I would choose FreeToM every time.

I failed and it’s okay

I failed and it’s okay

So in my last post I said that if I didn’t achieve the goals I set for myself, it would be depressing. I take that back. I forgot that I said that failure is a part of growing and with this failing I actually learned a lot. I’ve been really hard on myself, I’ve created these false expectations for myself and I was trying to achieve the expectations that other people have for me. I guess that’s…

Ballsy or Classic? We're getting some good feedback from our customers regarding sizing for packers. This week we heard from a customer who uses a standard size Archer Packer from ftm essentials. They said the Ballsy size works great with that. Let us know what size you think works best for your packer. We really appreciate your comments! Getyourjoey.com

TMI TUESDAY TIIIME-- packers

You don’t want to read packer talk, skip this post. Can’t use cuts on mobile.

So like. I’ve had this packer for long enough that it’s staaarting to wear (just over a year and a half). But that’s partly due to daily wear of an inexpensive product. (For those curious, I bought the Mr Limpy aka Packy in mid-March 2015; it’s now October 2016 and it’s probably past replacement time.)

But now I’m debating going with the Mr Right, but the $60 price tag is putting me off a little. But the flat-back balls on the Packy are… kind of a pain in the balls, so it doesn’t sit right. I just can’t decide if it’s $45 worth of a pain in the balls. On the other hand, Mr Right is *silicone*, so it could last for years.

Except gods forbid I don’t like it for some reason, then I’m out $60 and still need a new packer :/
