Most gay men started their sexual discovery with a butt plug. These babies have helped queers a lot, especially if they’ve been interested in pet play. The problem is that those new to the arena might feel overwhelmed with pet play’s animalistic aspects. To battle this, many gay men train with butt plug tails!
There are three key factors to consider when selecting the perfect butt plug tail: comfort, material, and your role-play vibe. New pets pair excellently with silicone or inflatable tails. Meanwhile, professionals prefer plugs with extra features, such as vibration or unique designs.
So, since you’re here looking for help in finding the best butt plug tail (or tails), I’ve got all the tips you need!
What Are Butt Plug Tails?
A butt plug tail is exactly what you might imagine: a butt plug with a tail attached. They come in a wide range of shapes and styles. You can even personalize them.
These toys aren't just for gay men to look enticing (though they're great for that, too). They're an awesome and safe way to ease into animal roleplay or pet play.
Obviously, butt plug tails add a visual flair to your intimate moments, too. Plus, the plug itself offers the classic perks of anal toys: a feeling of fullness and heightened sensitivity for better orgasms.
Popular Butt Plug Tail Designs
Let’s talk tail designs— because the design can make all the difference in your naughty experience. Here are some common options that cater to various fantasies:
- Skunk Tails: Soft, fluffy, and perfect for beginners! Skunk’s black and white tail pattern is also both eye-catching and cute.
- Cow Tails: Tail isn’t the first thing you notice about cows, but they’re awesome when you’re serious about that cow roleplay! This plug pairs wonderfully with matching accessories like a bell collar or faux ears.
- Dragon Tails: Dragons represent power and determination —not a bad pet play choice for a power or brat bottom, right?
Match your butt plug tails with monster accessories. Add ears, paws, and ankles. You get to have that immersive experience and know you're in for an unforgettable roleplay.
Material Matters
Knowing what your butt plug’s made of is crucial for your comfort, safety, and its durability. Here’s a quick guide:
Plug Materials
- Latex/Silicone: These are non-porous (waterproof, nonabsorbent), body-safe, and super easy to clean. They’re my go-to for worry-free pet play.
- Glass: Glass plugs are firm and weighty. They’re great if you’re big on the sensation or temp department. Plus, they’re gorgeous enough that you’ll want to display them on a glass cabinet.
- Metal: Luxurious and weighty, metal plugs feel amazing and are easy to sterilize. They’re perfect if you love something cool, smooth, and long-lasting.
Tail Materials
- Latex/Silicone: Soft, elastic, and comfortable. It provides a unique texture that’s great for long play sessions.
- Synthetic Fur: It’s the most common material and feels soft against your skin. It’s also easy to maintain, but can lead to fur faux allergy and skin irritation.
- Real Animal Skin: Less common but incredibly authentic. Please note that this option requires extra care and may not be feasible for everyone due to their bank balance.
- Other Materials: Faux leather and fabric tails can add a creative twist to your pet play.
When choosing a tail, consider how it’ll feel against your body and whether it aligns with your play goals. Is it for training a new pet, edging a veteran pup, etc?
Also, consider whether the material is durable, especially if you plan to use your tail frequently.
Care and Maintenance
Butt plugs are intimate objects that you use in your body. This is precisely why you need to care for and maintain them properly. When you do, you also get to enjoy them for longer.
Here are my personal tips for taking care of them:
Cleaning the Plug
Different materials require specific cleaning techniques:
- Silicone plugs: Use warm water and mild soap. You can also go the extra mile with a sex toy cleaner for a deeper clean. Although silicone is non-porous (lacking pores), which is beneficial for hygiene, always double-check for residue before drying.
- Glass plugs: These are the easiest to clean! A quick wash with soap and water works. You can also boil them for a couple of minutes to sterilize (as long as they’re not painted or coated).
- Metal plugs: Stainless steel looks gorgeous but is also durable and simple to sterilize. A toy cleaner, boiling water, or even a dishwasher (yes, really!) will do the trick.
I'll admit, I'm a bit obsessive when it comes to cleanliness — especially with toys that come into contact with sensitive areas. So, I always follow up with a wipe-down using alcohol-based disinfectant before storing.
Cleaning the Tail
Cleaning the tail itself can be a bit trickier, especially if it’s made of faux fur:
- Spot cleaning: For synthetic fur, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Gently clean the affected area. Don't submerge the tail in water — this will ruin the structure.
- Avoid staining: If you’ve used your tail during messy play or with lubricants, clean it right away! Dried stains can be tough to remove from faux fur.
- Maintenance tips: Brush the tail regularly with a soft-bristle brush to keep it looking fluffy and new. Synthetic fur tends to mat over time, so gentle brushing works wonders.
Not looking forward to deep-cleaning your tail? Then, choose tail plugs made of silicone instead!
Removable Tails
Some tail plugs come with a removable feature. This is great for cleaning! Detachable designs mean you can clean the plug and the tail separately. This is much easier and faster!
For non-removable tails, follow the manufacturer’s care instructions. Materials vary, and some might require specialized cleaning methods.
Enhancing Your Experience
Let’s now chat about how to make your butt plug tail experience even better.
Budget
Butt plug tails come in all price ranges. If you’re new to this, start with something affordable to test the waters. Beginner-friendly designs are often silicone-based and paired with a simple faux fur tail.
If you’re ready to splurge, there are many luxurious, custom-made options to go after.
Customization
Many sellers let their buyers customize their butt plugs. You can choose:
- Tail designs: Long, short, fluffy, or sleek
- Colors: Rainbow, natural tones, or even bold neon shades
- Sizes: Plugs come in whatever size you want them to be, from tiny to monster
Being able to pick something that matches your personality or mood makes the whole experience feel more personal.
Functionality
When shopping for a tail, look for features to make your life easier. Removable tails or those with fully washable designs are lifesavers for us who don’t want to spend too much time cleaning. These are also practical in case you want to play without the tail.
Plugs with extra features are also in demand. These features add simultaneous sensations (pulsing butt plugs) or make the encounter more aesthetically pleasing (hello, glow-in-the-dark designs).
Tips for First-Time Users
Take note of these tips if you're a rookie butt plug tail enthusiast:
Warm-Up
Start small. I'm being serious here when I say this: don't go for the biggest plug just because it looks cool. It isn’t cool, it’s dangerous! Go a size larger only after your body’s used to the size you have now. Gradually moving up in size allows your body to adapt.
Use Lube
Lube is a gay man’s best friend. Always go for a water-based lubricant, especially if you’re using faux fur tails. Silicone-based lubes might be tempting, but they’ll leave your gorgeous tail a sticky mess that’s hard to clean.
Water-based lube also protects the material and is great for sensitive skin, so stock up before playtime.
Placement
Relax. Seriously, take a deep breath. The key to a smooth experience is to stay calm and ensure your body is clean and prepped.
For me, a nice hot shower beforehand does wonders — not just for hygiene but also for getting in the mood. When you’re ready to insert, go slow.
Play Safe
Safety first, always. Butt plug tails are fantastic, but they’re not meant to be tugged aggressively. Keep things light and playful to avoid discomfort or accidents.
Real User Experiences
One of the best parts of using a tail butt plug is the creativity and connection it brings. Below are some insights that might resonate with you:
Tugging Durability
Many users — myself included — appreciate lightweight tails for their durability. Opt for lighter options, especially if you plan to move around a lot or have some tugging in your scenes.
Matching Accessories
Pairing a tail with matching accessories makes the whole experience more immersive. Think ears, paws, or even themed outfits.
DIY Options
Are you the crafty gay guy? Then DIY plug tails sound fun to you! I've personally seen amazing creations with basic materials, so it's totally doable! Some invent and modify their butt plug tails with custom colors, too.
Just a side note, this is a witty idea if you plan to attend sex parties.
Conclusion
Exploring butt plug tails can open up a whole new world of fun, self-expression, and connection — especially in the gay and BDSM communities. Having a checklist helps you find the perfect plug that could easily become your next best friend.
