When I received my Virtually Adult Glass Crystal Butt Plug, cocooned in its little leather-like padded pouch, I was immediately enamored with how the light reflected off this smooth, sensuous, lightweight beauty. I was also impressed that the stem was a little longer than your usual fare, which put a smile to my lips. Perhaps this one would not slip out like 98 per cent of all butt plugs currently on the market. Ah, but apprehension seeped in quickly with regard to the material. Admittedly, as a stainless steel “whore,” I am a bit biased. I can’t help it: stainless steel is shiny, heavy, easily sterilized, and UNBREAKABLE. Now, I know what you are thinking—glass dildos do not break inside you. And it’s true, they don’t, but still I could not help but to try it out on my gorgeous little compliant pet first. Just to be safe.

Luckily, my little angel came to see me shortly after receipt of said toy, so the timing was perfect. I had her get dressed in a silky camisole, crotchless pantyhose, garter belt with silk stockings, and very high-heeled shoes. She was a vision. I added a blindfold, some heavy metal cuffs and shackles to adorn her hands and feet, and clamps for her heaving bosom. Lovely! After putting her into the sling, I was able to caress that lovely little entrée into my domain. I reached for the plug, which sparkled and glistened. As I fingered her lubed orifice, she moaned and begged. Heavens! This one is no gaping hole, so she has been in training for deflowerment for some time. Ah, but the crystal plug slid right in. And goodness, it was a sight to behold.

Mind you, I own a few rhinestone/jeweled plugs (all stainless steel), and I have to tell you, I have never seen one shine so absolutely brilliantly! Most plugs hide very quickly between the cheeks, but the Virtually Adult plug has enough length to stick out proudly, even when the wearer is standing. So my little one sparkled like a slutty sapphire engagement ring from some cheap mall jewelry store (and I say that with reverence), and I was pleased.

Here, in fact, is what my little precious recounted to me about the experience:

The first sensation you’re aware of is the cool, smooth texture of the glass as it slides into you.  It’s a texture entirely different from metal, which may feel cold and alien, or rubber, which has a certain friction associated with it.  The glass feels warmer and at the same time implacable.  It sets up a feeling of negative space, that is, rather than feeling penetrated by a physical object, one feels a sense of being penetrated by…well, space – which amplifies the feeling of being opened up... expanded... augmented.  This was a comfortable item to wear, and I can only hope that seeing the jeweled stem in its proper location brought a smile to my Mistress’s lips.

And did it ever! Now, what’s good for the slut is good for the Mistress, I reckoned, so I resolved to overcome my fear of glass. After insuring the plug was safely washed with bleach after a long run in the dishwasher, it was good to go. I put the plug in bed with me next to my favorite bottle of lube to warm me up to the idea. I then applied the “what gets me going every time” trick (wouldn’t you like to know!), and began to feel ready for the plug. Once again, insertion was a snap, and the plug was comfortably inside. I must say I have tried a cornucopia of plugs over the years, but I have never quite felt anything like this. It is very much as though a space has been created. It’s as if the walls are opened but nothing is inside—as if John Cage himself created this curiosity of a sex toy. Space where heft should be? Quelle horreur! But you know what? As I began to squeeze my PC muscles in conjunction, it just felt magical! I felt relief and pleasure and had a happy, healthy orgasm. Clean-up was a snap, and I slept like a baby. Truth be known though, I still imagined that damn thing snapping off inside of me, so it makes it hard for it to become my #1. But, I will say it will now accompany me on all my trips as it has proven itself to be multifaceted, lightweight, easy to clean, and pretty….

Definitely a great addition to any toybox, and assuming you don’t drop it or snap it off inside, it’s worth the 90 bucks in my mind. I would give 4.5 stars because of my stainless bias, but cannot, so I give 5. Its’ worth it!

A crystal, bejeweled butt plug?!? Well, why not. It arrived in a discreet, zip-up sunglasses case, an ingenious package for such a cunning device. The plug itself has a rather long, somewhat thick stem rooted in an irridescent diamond and blossoming into a bulbous cone—the effect is more abruptly angular Christmas conifer than gentlly contoured tulip bloom. The blue swirls festooning the actual plug certainly add to the decorative effect. However, it's that diamond that draws most of the attention, a bright shiny object that steals your gaze. Cradling this object in my hands, I can't help but snicker at its utterly sublime ridiculousness: a crystal, bejeweled butt plug!!! And then—as if hypnotized by the glinting facets of the diamond, I find myself awash in abjectly appropos film references for such an absurd confection.

As I lube up the glass, I am suddenly in the flagship Tiffany's on Fifth Avenue eavesdropping as Paul Varjak and Holly Golightly struggle to find the perfect present on a budget. Holly is telling the rather befuddled yet ever helpful salesman that while she thinks diamonds are "handsome," they really only suit women over 40. "You understand," she says knowlingly. This is where I'd jump in, pointing out to the couple that here is a diamond made for her (no matter her age) or even him, what with his gilded, cupid-infested cage of a love nest. Yes, very, very handsome. Moon River, indeed. "You were a darling to help! I couldn't have done it without you."

But as I begin to insert, the screen fades to black, and a new film begins to flicker. Perhaps it's my hesitation over all this decidedly un-macho bling, but I can't help seeing Ferris Bueller's smiling face as he describes his best friend Cameron. You remember: Cameron was sooooo uptight that, according to Ferris, if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, you'd have a diamond in a few weeks. Well, no need to wait! Here's just the thing to loosen old Cameron up. Shake it up, Baby.

With that eyebrow-raising little pop that signals deep impact, I begin to hear the words of the elfin queen Galadriel intoning about her gift of crystal starlight in poor, uncertain Frodo's head: "Let this be a light for you in dark places." Well, it's in a pretty dark place, and it feels ever so light. In fact, with a crystal, bejeweled butt plug shoved up my ass, I am almost loathe to admit that I feel "pretty, witty, and (of course) gay."

What?!? This is alone time, so I can be as queeny as I want. I suppose that if I really wanted company, I could simply go outside and bend over, letting my diamond-encrusted sphinctor signal passing jets as it glints in the sun. Bling, bling all in your face. Of course, once the plug is inside, all of its over-the-top glam absurdity becomes more of a mental thing, not for the faint of heart or the sexually insecure. You need a mirror or a partner for full appreciation of all that sunshine or starlight emanating out of your asshole, but at least you know it's there in a deliciously gender-bending way. Here's a sex toy or pleasure object that lets you (hell, gives you permission to) camp it up a bit—ok, a lot.

I've always thought that it takes a real man to stick something up his butt, no matter what it is. This is the perfect plug for both beginner butt play (you know, a diamond in the rough) and setting a mood. The stem seems longer than most plugs, which is great for really getting in their and mining those sensitive spots while also letting the sparkle really brighten up where the sun don't shine. The bulb itself makes a satisfying "Pop!" upon entry and exit, like uncorking champagne (that's the goal in a manner of speaking, isn't it?). And the mood should be lighthearted; sexual exploration should be playful, hell, bubbly and giddy even. So for all you Camerons out there too masculinely uptight for silly solo (or even partner) sex with this gem of a toy, I offer a pearl of wisdom: If you can't play with yourself, who can you play with? Loosen up already—literally and figuratively. Take it like a man. Seriously, don't take yourself so seriously. Let this be a light for you in dark places; you just might find yourself bedazzled.

Aurora Borealis, the icy sky at night...Yep, I just can't stop singing these lyrics even long after I removed this delicious toy from my ass. Something tells me Marlon Brando, Pocahontas, and even Mr. Young would have wanted to add this icy delight to their conversation around the fire.

The Crystal Delights glass anal plug by Virtually Adult is a toy that immediately made me squeal with girly excitement when I unwrapped it. I had no idea what a bundle of joy I was about to be presented with since the packaging of the toy resembles a protective case for eye glasses and not that of a high-end erotic toy. I unzipped the carabiner-attached case and was surprised to find a gorgeous glass butt plug with a swirling whirlwind of northern lights on the inside.

The end of the plug's handle is inset with a colorful crystal jewel that matches the gleam of the colors inside the glass. The girth of the plug is moderately shaped, enough to notice but not too much to feel too full. It has a long and slender stem, more so than any of my other anal glass or steel plugs, but not too delicate as to insight worry about a possible break. The toy comes nestled in protective foam and secured by an elastic strap. On the other side of the case is a zippered pouch that contains a few flavored condoms (not my favorite, but props for the cute gesture of making them chocolate) and a sample packet of Boy Butter, which is an oil based lube that is fantastic for use with this toy. (*Safety Note*- Again, let me emphasize this creamy lubricant is for anal and not vaginal play and cannot be used with condoms.) It's consistency is literally that of room temperature creamed butter, and the combination of it with the glass material of the toy smoothly slides in my rectum just like butter passing over my lips. Just like the ol' saying goes, "It's better with butter!"

This type of foreplay is exactly what I want from anal sex whether I play solo or with a partner. I want to feel sexy and truly enjoy initial anal entry as much as prolonged internal use. I also don't want to take it (or give it for that matter) without my ass ready and begging for this sensation. Foreplay is incredibly important to me in general for amping my attraction and desire. With anal play I find this slow sexy initial tease to be essential for my optimal enjoyment.

In the past, I have put steel versions of toys such as this in my ass and ridden as a passenger on a motorcycle. Not only did that make me feel powerfully sexy, the vibration from the bike simulated feelings of being fucked in the ass. That physical sensation mixed with the anticipation of more in-depth penetration from my partner's member when we reached our destination drove me wild and fully quenched my desires for creative, adventurous and romantic sexuality. This toy would easily work for the same purpose and I fully recommend trying it out. Yes, glass is safe to use. No, not all glass products are made the same, so it is important to make sure that you make smart choices when choosing. See this article for more details on glass sex toy safety.
