      Alfred Charles Kinsey, of Kinsey Reports fame, was into sounding and at least once put a toothbrush up his own urethra… with the coarse end first.

      A pen? Foolhardiness.

      Using a sterile cylinder of metal or glass is called “sounding” and is a somewhat common fetish. I think this post is a joke, but humanity never fails to disappoint me.

      Some people find the experience of sticking things in their urethra highly stimulating. Some of those people get tired of the typical thin rod, and need something… More.

      I’ve always been more curious as to who figured this out first. Someone had to be the first to scratch the inside of their dick with a stick to awaken a whole new itch, and I find that just slightly terrifying.

        Sounder here. It started as experimenting as a child. Once i found out that i can make good feeling by touching my pp, I tried everything I could think of to make different good feelings.

        Started with lego spears and antennae around 10 I think. Also tried those little ball chains that are used as pull switches for ceiling lights. They were less fun. Nowadays I use proper surgical grade tools.

        I’ve got a pencil dick so the biggest I can fit is 7.5mm even after sounding for 20 years. Some guys can take up to 12 or 13 mm and it legitimately makes me jealous.

          I had a medical procedure in my early 20’s where they put a camera up my urethra. Prior to the procedure they filled it with lidocaine or something similar so I did not feel a thing. The purpose was to get a look inside my bladder. It was not a pleasant experience with a frequent urge to pee after a terrible urge that produced perhaps a drop or two. This went on about every 15 minutes for the rest of the day. It was misery. So when I hear of another side to the story had they not filled me full of lidocaine. I can’t help but be amazed at what a difference perspective makes ones experiences, and how that can inform the rest of our lives.

          You’re giving me flashbacks to a doctor in Tokyo sticking a camera into my bladder and saying it was beautiful. I yahooed it, cameras are 9mm. It was hell. At least I got you best ya weirdo

        are they resonating the thing to make it vibrate? are there some awesome frequencies? otherwise i dont understand the ‘sounding’ name.
