Sex and masturbation involve many fluids. While they all play a role in making it enjoyable, they quickly turn nasty if left to sit. This is especially so if the fluid in question is glucose-filled cum. It will quickly start festering and breed bacteria – unless it is in a self-cleaning vagina.
Since your pocket pussy, though glorious, isn’t in any way as complex as a human vagina, you have to clean it every time you use it to avoid such nastiness.
Despite this, the temptation to throw away the toy and just bust in your post-nut bliss is so high. However, you should remember to collect yourself after enjoying yourself for a bit and get on with the cleanup.
Why Should You Clean Your Pocket Pussy?
Well. The same reason you wash your spoons, rinse your toothbrush and launder your underwear.
Everything gets dirty after use. Cleaning them is even more important if they will be in contact with your genitalia.
While your penis is more resistant to infections than a vagina, it still isn’t immune. You could easily get a UTI by sticking it into a dirty and nasty pocket pussy.
If this isn’t reason enough, here is a breakdown of the top reasons why you should always clean your pocket pussy after using it.
A Dirty Pocket Pussy is Nasty
Ever seen fermenting semen that has sat around in an enclosed container at room temperature for hours? Chances are you’ve not since this isn’t natural.
While cum will dry up on the skin, the enclosed area in a pocket pussy could keep it wet for days. The moisture will let bacteria grow, and it will, well, go stale.
The resulting mess is gross, smelly, and unhealthy. It isn’t something that you’d want to stick your penis in, regardless of how nasty you are.
Food for Thought: You wipe down your dick, and cum splatters on your body after masturbating. Why not clean the pocket pussy?
Improves Health and Safety
Remember all the bacteria and pathogens we’ve been talking about? Well, once the festering mess from your previous nut touches your dick, and some go up the urethra, the chances of getting a urinary tract infection go very high.
If you are lucky, you will have a terrible rash on your nether regions. The worst-case scenario is getting an STI if you share your toy with somebody else.
Apart from the short-term hygiene benefits of constant cleaning, frequent maintenance and keeping your masturbation sleeve neat will make it last longer.
ProTip: A human vagina is self-cleaning. It naturally ejects sexual fluid or absorbs the rest, so ladies don’t have to rigorously clean their vaginas as you have to clean your pocket pussy.
How Often Should You Clean Your Pocket Pussy?
You should clean your pocket pussy before and immediately after using it. However, most people I interviewed make do with cleaning it thoroughly after use and storing it in pristine condition.
Cleaning it before use might ruin the mood but could protect you from residue, dirt, or infections. It will also ensure no small critters crawled in there – especially if you stored your pocket pussy uncovered.
Luckily, cleaning it before and after shouldn’t be hard if you use the correct cleaning procedure.
How to Clean Your Pocket Pussy
Cleaning your masturbation sleeve should be simple. The procedure is generally the same, but the material and design will affect how hard you have to clean and how careful you should be to keep some parts dry.
Warning: If you have a vibrating or pulsating pocket pussy, keep water away from the electronics at all costs. Instead of cleaning it under running water, use a damp cloth and cleaning spray. Some toys let you detach the part you were in contact with from the electronics for a faster traditional rinse.
Here are the top things to note before cleaning your artificial vagina.
- What material is it made of? Medical-grade silicone is smooth and easy to clean. On the other hand, soft human-like thermoplastic elastomers or thermoplastic rubber (marketed as Refined Touch, Cyberskin, or Ultra Realistic) are slightly harder to clean. They are more porous and sensitive to traditional soap. Only use manufacture recommended cleaners
- Is the toy fully waterproof or partially waterproof? If partially waterproof, which part should never get wet?
ProTip: To make things easier, we will assume that you have the more involving softer silicon or thermoplastic compounds as they are more common in the market
- Inspect the toy for any damage before cleaning it. If you find any tears or gashes, it is time to get rid of the toy and get a new one
- Rinse the pocket pussy with running water as soon as you finish using it. This is as simple as holding it under a tap of water and using your fingers to rinse out the cum and lube
- Use an anti-bacterial toy cleaner and more water to carefully clean the inside of the pocket pussy using your fingers. Don’t use soap only, especially if it is made of more porous human-like material, as these retain bacteria better than traditional silicon
- You can use your fingers to scrub the soap into the nooks and crannies or a soft sponge
- Rinse out all the detergent using clean running water and fingers
ProTip: Giving your pocket pussy or fleshlight a deep clean every now and then by soaking it in warm water with the appropriate antibacterial soap or cleaner is crucial for thorough cleaning and disinfection. I’d say give it a weekly treatment if you use it frequently.
Whatever you do, don’t use harsh cleaning detergents or disinfectants like bleach as this will harm the toy and, finally, your penis the next time you use the toy.
How to Dry Your Pocket Pussy after Cleaning
Once you are done rinsing, you have to ensure the toy is as dry as possible. You don’t water any dampness – even if it is clean water.
- Squeeze and shake the masturbation sleeve to get rid of as much water as possible
- Dab the inside and outside with a clean, lint-free rag to get rid of more water
- Leave it out in the open to air dry
- Use your finger to check for any residual moisture after air drying for around 5 hours. If it is still wet, keep air drying it for up to 12 hours.
- Finish up by using a lint-free dry cloth or paper towel to wipe dry the inside of the fleshlight or pocket pussy
How to Clean Your Pocket Pussy if You Have No Time
If you are pressed for time or not in a position to execute a full clean (for instance, you are not at home), you can follow this rudimentary procedure as a temporary fix.
- Wipe it clean with some wet wipes or tissues
- Spray some sex toy cleaner into the toy to disinfect it and rub the cleaner in
- Wipe it dry again with wet wipes or tissues
This is only a temporary solution. You should purpose to fully clean your pocket pussy as soon as you get the time.
How to Reduce the Mess When Using Your Toy
An alternative to makeshift cleaning or a solution to make cleaning easier is reducing how much of a mess you make when using the toy.
A good way to keep all your nut out of the way is using a condom. The water-based lubricant you use with the pocket pussy shouldn’t be a problem since it is easy to wipe and rinse off. Tying off the condom and throwing away the cum is easier than having to clean it out of the fleshlight or pocket pussy.
ProTip: If you share your pocket pussy (which you shouldn’t, as it can spread infections), using a condom for protection is a good idea. Avoid oil-based lubes, as they will ruin the condom and the toy.
How to Store a Pocket Pussy
Once your toy is clean and dry, it is time to store it away. Propper storage will keep it clean and prevent dust, lint or critters from making their way into your pleasure haven. Here are the best ways to store your pocket pussy.
Keep the Original Packaging
The best way to store any sex toy is in its packaging. It was purposefully built to keep your toy in storage for years on end. It is the perfect protection against the elements.
Get a Plastic Container
You can get a plastic container if you don’t have the original packaging. A simple plastic container like kitchen Tupperware will get the job done. If it is big enough to hold the pocket pussy, you are good to go.
Bottom Line
Pocket pussies and fleshlights are a huge and fun responsibility. While you don’t have to take it for dinner, and it feels better than your palm, you must clean it rigorously. Take good care of yourself; it will give you mind-blowing orgasms with no infections for years to come.
