what is the So divine straw gas?
While taking preliminary notes on the straw gasI wrote, “What’s with all these fruity clit suckers?” and then I realized that that phrase also describes my most beloved sexual partners of the past and present 😂
Seriously though, fruit has been trending recently in the clitoral vibe category, for some reason. I reviewed a lemon-shaped clitoral sucker last year, and then the year one shaped like an avocado (sorry to be the bearer of strange news but yes, avocados are fruits). Have tariff-related grocery price increases caused people to start fetishizing the delicious products they can no longer afford? Has the growing popularity of kink vore made more people think about the eroticism of food? Or is it simply that a kitschy aesthetic makes a sometimes stigmatized product seem more accessible and fun?
sex toy company so divinewhich also makes an adorable vibrates in the shape of a heart and a version of the now classic pink toyThey asked me to review their latest sweet clitoral stimulator, the straw gas. It is a pressure wave toy, so it uses air pulses to stimulate the clitoris without contact. It’s made of silicone, sells for £43.99 (which currently converts to around $59 USD or $83 CAD) and looks like a big, juicy strawberry. I hope I didn’t berry the clue about that…
Things I like about So divine straw gas:
- Rumble: The pressure waves of the Strawgasm feel low and impactful on my clitoris, similar to the rumbling vibration of the lowest speed of the Rechargeable magic wand. This creates a deeper sensation that stimulates not only my external clitoris but also its internal parts, to a certain extent. My wife, who is transfeminine, also found Strawgasm pleasurable when she placed it on her frenulum.
- Good suction and sealing: Pressure wave toys do not technically create suction, although they are often called “clitoral suckers”: they rapidly and rhythmically alter the air pressure in the space between the skin and the toy, which can sometimes create a gentle suction when there is a good enough seal. I found that the “mouth” of the Strawgasm worked very well for this, especially when lubricated. Clitoral sucking is not only pleasurable in itself, but it also draws more blood to the area, making it more swollen and sensitive.
- Mouth size: The internal diameter of the Strawgasm’s nozzle is approximately 1.4 centimeters or 0.55 inches. It’s not as big as the mouth of my favorite pressure wave toy, the lelo silawhose widest diameter is 0.8 inches, but unlike other toys I’ve tried in this category, Strawgasm can enclose part of my clitoral shaft instead of just the ultra-sensitive tip, so I find it more satisfying than toys with smaller nozzles. As always with measurements like this, your mileage may vary depending on your anatomy; I think my clit is slightly larger than average, if that helps.
- Appearance: I go back and forth about whether I like sex toys with strange and novel shapes, but this one is pretty cute. It’s not “discreet” per se, but it certainly doesn’t look like a sex toy at first glance. From a practical perspective, I also found that the strawberry-like texture helped me maintain a better grip on the toy during use.
- Waterproof: The Strawgasm is IPX7 waterproof, so you can wash it in the sink or use it in the shower or bathtub without fear of ruining it.
Things that I of which as about him So divine straw gas:
- Only one button/Patterns that are activated too easily: The Strawgasm has 5 constant speeds followed by 4 rhythmic patterns, for a total of 9 settings, which you can cycle through using one button on the toy. In practice, this means that I often forget what speed I’m in and accidentally switch to a pattern, usually at a very inopportune moment, after which I have to scroll through the remaining patterns to get back to the beginning. I wish the patterns were activated by a separate button so those of us who never used them could, well, never use them.
- There is not much range of intensity: Although Strawgasm has 5 levels of intensity, the jump from each one to the next is so small that even the highest level is not much stronger than the first. I frequently found myself wanting more power as I got closer to orgasm (and then accidentally switched into a pattern, as mentioned above!).
- Too bulbous for some sexual positions: I couldn’t use this during PIV in missionary position or strap-on sex (I mean, with me receiving), because it’s not small enough to easily fit between bodies. Lack of practicality is often one of the trade-offs made when purchasing a toy with a silly shape like this.
Final thoughts
The fruity girl straw gas It feels almost as sweet as it looks! I think a lot of people would enjoy the sensation it provides, which feels like (as with other pressure wave squeaky toys) a mix between pounding and suction: rhythmic, relentless and deep.
That said, it didn’t have enough power to excite me and I found its patterns more of a nuisance than a pleasure. But it turned me on a lot and I felt good the whole time. That’s why I say, if a strawberry-shaped toy seems to be to your liking, pick it up and place it on your clitoris; maybe you’ll have a great time with the berries 😉
