Fisting - how to know if it's for you
Many people find that the sensation of having their ass or vagina completely filled and stretched out is a fantastic one. Fisting is pretty much what it sounds like: getting your entire hand inside someone and fucking them with it as long as they can handle. It does take practice, however, and you should be extremely careful not to hurt or damage your partner as you figure things out. Time, patience and lubricant are all essential, as is a relaxed partner who feels comfortable and is massively turned on. Many people find that having an orgasm before playing around with fisting makes things a little more straightforward, making that the perfect time to start finding out if it's for you.
What's it like to be fisted?
For many people, of all genders and sexual orientations, getting fisted brings the sensation of being totally filled up. Fisting can be extremely pleasurable for vaginas and anuses alike.
Out top fisting tips
Here are our top tips to make your fisting experience a happy, healthy and kinktastic one!
1. Preparation. Have all of the things you will need before you start. If you’re attempting anal fisting an enema may be a nice thing to do before.
2. Practice makes for happy holes. Start with toys, cocks, fingers and hands; slowly work your way up to larger (body safe) objects until you reach the desired size. Speaking of fingers - make sure your nails are trimmed and clean!
3. Breathing and positioning are key! Finding the right position takes a bit of time so experiment with different ones until you find what works for you. Breathe with your partner’s movements and learn to relax your muscles, this is not something that will happen on the first (or even 10th) try, so be patient.
4. LUBE. Whether it’s women getting fisted or men being fisted anally, you will need lots of lube. Lubrications that tend to work best are silicone based and to prevent ‘dry-out’. The fister can wear latex gloves to keep the lube in the right place.
5. Keep in mind removal can be more dangerous than insertion, so take care! As a tip for if/when you do get it in there, when you want to be ‘unfisted’ coughing helps your body to naturally expel the fist.
Be aware there are a few unfortunate stories (and a lot of urban legends) that involve too much alcohol or drugs, parties and trips to the hospital. Please take care, have a clear mind and consent for your fisting activities!
