Fill the Joy: Why Your Vagina Will Love a Pussy Plug!

If you haven't already discovered them, it's time to plug yourself in to the joys of pussy plugs. From enhanced clitoral stimulation to tighter anal sex, there are many benefits to this sex toy for women. Victoria Blisse plums the depths of vaginal plugs and how to use them safely...

 

We’ve all heard of anal plugs, but did you know that pussy plugs also exist? These group of sex toys are less well known but provide the same ‘filling’ sensation inside the vagina, instead of the anus. Wondering how they work or if they could work for you or a partner? Here's all you need to know...

 

So, what is a pussy plug exactly?

A pussy or vaginal plug is a specific toy made to sit in and ‘plug’ the vagina, similar to how a butt plug works, and also with as many reasons for using one! Some people enjoy the feeling of fullness; others want to be ‘plugged’ for their Dominant, and some enjoy the thrill of wearing a pussy plug in public – they are discreet enough to be worn without anyone else knowing. And many of us enjoy all three of these reasons and more! 
 

Furthermore, pleasure is derived from the pressure and movement against the vaginal walls, so wearing a vaginal plug while pegging someone means someone you are having sex with you can also experience the pleasure of you wearing a pussy plug. Win-win! 

Fluffy and filling: the benefits of plugging your pussy are multiple! 

 

4 reasons why pussy plugs rock

Here are four great reasons why you should be adding a vaginal plug to your sex toy collection:

 

1. Clitoral stimulation

The clitoris is a wonderful thing; two bulbs extend around the vagina and this means you can feel the stimulation from rubbing and vibrations internally. Some pussy plugs even have external arms designed to stimulate the glans of the clit for even more pleasure. Pussy plugs can sometimes be called a clit plug, but as they doesn’t actually ‘enter’ the clit (ouch!), this is a misnomer. Clitoral pumps also exist for direct clitoral stimulation. 
 

 

2. Discreet public play

When you have a pussy plug in, no one knows but you… unless you’ve let someone in on the secret! Pussy plugs don't magically stay in, but some tight-fitting pants and good pelvic floor muscles will help you be able to wear your pussy plug in any day-to-day situation you like.

3. Making anal sex tighter

Up your anal sex game by adding a pussy plug for some double penetration action, making a tighter, fuller experience for everyone involved.

 

4. Multi-penetration possibilities

With your pussy plug in you can enjoy grinding while giving oral sex or a blow job, plus experience the fun of two or three penetrations at the same time, without having to juggle all those bodies to make it happen! 

 

What types of vaginal plugs can I try?

Most pussy plugs are made of silicone, which is a body-safe material. Some people find certain metal butt plugs work for them when used vaginally, and this is totally fine as it won’t introduce infection into the body – as long as it’s properly cleaned. 

There are two distinct types of pussy plug:

• Non-vibrating plug 

Generally the cheaper option, these pussy plugs are good for beginners and those who don’t enjoy buzzy toys. Available in several sizes, you need to have an idea of how 'full' you want to feel. Measure the length, width and girth of your favourite vibrator or dildo to help you work out if you want something small or extra large! Be aware that once they’ve been inserted, you can’t send a pussy plug back for a refund!

 

• Vibrating plug

The Lovense Lush is widely raved about for its vibrations, clit stim and its app, which means someone else can control what you feel. Brilliant for long-distance lovers as well as those who enjoy teasing in close quarters. Hands-free fun!

How do I use a vaginal plug?

You’ll more than likely need lube to insert your pussy plug – as they’re designed to be a tight fit, it’s likely you’ll need more than just your own juices to slide it in. If your plug is silicone, don’t use a silicone-based lube, as this can erode silicone toys. Opt for a water-based lube instead.

Vaginal plugs are made of soft material so you can squeeze them and press them inside you. Make sure you’re relaxed and ready for penetration; some pre-play to get you into the mood might be a good idea.

You can leave your plug in as long as you feel comfortable with it. But, when you’re ready to remove it, squeeze your internal muscles whilst pulling gently down on your vaginal plug and it should easily slide out (some more lube will come in handy if it's not coming out easily). 

If you plan to wear your plug in public, make sure to wear tight-fitting knickers and or/shorts and leggings to make sure it doesn’t drop out (!) as you need to use your pelvic muscles to keep the plug in place. You could cause quite a stir out doing the food shop if your pussy plug popped out onto the aisle floor!
 

Wash your removed plug in soapy warm water. If it's permitted, boil your plug to disinfect it. Check in the instructions first if it's OK to do so, especially if it’s a vibrating one.
 

Are vaginal plugs safe?

If you take it slowly, use lots of lube, and only wear your pussy plug for as long as it feels comfortable, then yes, there is very low risk in using a pussy plug. Make sure you keep everything clean and only use body-safe plugs, and you’ll have nothing but fun.
