It was not long after I reviewed the Fun Factory Share that Fun Factory released the next in the Share line: the Fun Factory Share XL. When I first laid eyes on it I knew I would have to have it. Now, nearly two years later, I finally get to share⁰¹ with you the excellence that is the Share XL.

The Share XL is a double-ended dildo designed to be used like a strap-on, only it doesn’t need a harness to work. There are quite a few other products designed to do the same thing, but this is by far my favorite. It is shaped as all of the Share line–which, in addition to the XL and original also includes the XS–each has a dildo⁰² end connected to a curved internal bulb (the same size and shape on all three) via a very curved connection. This is one of my favorite features: the curved connection and therefore way it sits. The deep curve enables the base of the dildo to sit against the mons and in front of the clit, rather than sticking out at an angle from the vaginal opening area. This is important because it gives so much better control and leverage.

However, the curved connection is also the source of the biggest potential complaint of the Share XL, the floppyness. Because of the extreme swoop down from the base of the dildo and the weight of the dildo, especially on the XL, the dildo can have a tendency to This isn’t as much of a problem for me, luckily, due to my excess of thigh flesh that is somehow able to keep the dildo in place, but for you skinnier folk out there it would be highly irritating. Of course, it can be slipped into a harness⁰³, as long as the harness either does not have fabric behind the o-ring or has removable fabric there, easily to alleviate that problem. While using it in a harness does take away slightly from the convenience of the “harnessless strap on” it is so much easier to use and wield.

I really love the bulb on this. It’s curved to give the wearer some nice g-spot stimulation with each thrust and jostle of the hips, plus it’s big enough for just about anyone to hold on to, since the smaller the object inserted the more the PC muscles have to work to keep it from falling out⁰⁴. There is a ridge around the bulb just like on the dildo to make it match, which is awfully cute, though I haven’t really felt the ridge on the bulb too much.

The ridges on the dildo, however, are so amazingly lovely. They remind me a lot of the Fun Factory Wave which I love extremely much. They’re thick and the baby bear⁰⁵ of dildo ridges: not too pronounced, not too small. They add a little more girth to the already good sized dildo, plus they look pretty too. Without the ridges the Share XL would be almost exactly the same size as the original Share.

Unfortunately I haven’t been able to truly try this out on another human yet. Onyx is too scared of the size of it despite my promises of going slow. Actually, I got him to agree to it one night but the other toy ended up using as a warm-up was too good that we didn’t get around to the Share XL. Even though I haven’t tried it out on someone else I have tried it on me multiple ways: fucking myself with the dildo end; fucking the Flip Hole with the dildo and the bulb end inserted in me; and using it like a kegel exerciser by inserting the bulb end, standing, and gripping and releasing to keep it inside. All three tasks are win.

1. see what I did there? [↩]
2. while it is a little awkward to keep referring to this half of the Share XL as “dildo” I cannot think of a better word that I want to use, I am not a fan of “shaft” and “cock” is too gendered [↩]
3. It actually works quite well with the inexpensive Bare As You Dare Harness. I recommend it [↩]
4. though having an excess of thigh flesh or a harness is helpful here too [↩]
5. you know, Goldilocks style [↩]

There are many types of strap-on harnesses on the market which mostly vary on strap style, material, and cock attachment. The corset-style harness is distinct and characterized by having a wide piece that connects around the waist which laces up the middle and rests right above the ass. Corset harnesses are feminine and the wide back helps to frame the ass as well as adds to the support and makes sure the straps don’t dig into my sides while I’m wearing it. These are one of my favorite styles of harnesses.

Aside from the corset feature this harness is a two strap or jock style harness, so it has two straps coming from the front where they are attached to the o-ring that sit on either side of the outer labia and go across the thighs and up either side of the ass. I would actually be surprised to find a single strap corset harness due to the corset design in the back. Having two straps instead of one means a couple of great things: easier access to the vaginal opening and more support holding the cock in place.

The Red Leather Corset Harness is made out of amazingly soft and buttery leather that I constantly have the urge to rub against my face or caress with my fingers. It looks especially wonderful matched with my favorite red dildo or any black dildo I’ve paired it with, but will work with any toy with a flat base either slipped behind the front panel or between the front panel and the O-ring in front.

It just barely fits but it’s still lovely! Looks better without the underwear, too.

The front panel is super comfortable but also mildly annoying. It comes down a little further than I would like and makes it more difficult to access my cunt than the other harnesses I have, though only a little. Also, it’s easy to slip a cock in from the back so the base sits right against the skin but putting one between the panel and the O-ring is a little more difficult, though that’s technically a problem with the straps rather than the panel. On other harnesses I have the straps connect to the O-ring via snaps but these are actually sewn to the front panel so you have to loosen the straps where they connect in back in order to get the cock in place. However, I’m lazy anyway and it’s easy to just slip the cock in the back, plus that way the base protrudes to hit my clit even better.

The straps connect to other pieces via two D-rings each which are fairly easy to maneuver and have no slip that I’ve noticed. Tightening them isn’t that easy, however, but I think part of that is because this harness only barely fits me around, each of the two side straps only have somewhere between an inch or two of slack. This also connects with the problem with the O-ring in front. Neither of these things would be that big of a deal if I was a few inches smaller, I think. I got size M/L and I measure 48 1/2 inches around where the harness sits.

These two shortcomings, however, are really not that bad overall and I still love this harness and think it’s extremely comfortable and well made. It’s currently my favorite harness to wear with my Bare As You Dare Harness leading a close second. In addition to red the Sh! Women’s Erotic Emporium Corset Harness comes in the standard black as well as white, baby pink, hot pink, (powder) blue, and purple. Plus Sh! has a great selection of other strap-on harnesses if the corset style isn’t quite for you.
