In these increasingly stressful, terrible times, it feels frivolous to write about a sex toy. Pleasure seems unreachable, and it even feels wrong to write about. With the current American political climate, I have to admit, it’s hard to feel sexy. And yet, I want to feel sexy. I want to have pleasure and I want it to be more than just shoving a vibrator down the front of my pants and getting off as quickly as possibly. So I’m taking the time to finally review a toy that forces you to take your time.
Enter the Changeling, by Hodge Podge Entourage. I have this toy in three sizes, one of which was graciously provided for review some time ago. It has been in my queue and I long felt ashamed that I never gave it a proper review. So I want to thank them for their patience, and for their beautiful creation. Primarily, this will be a review regarding the Medium and Small sizes, though I have purchased the Large which proved to be too much for my poor vag.
In terms of visual appeal, one might find the Changeling a little basic compared to the more fantastical offerings that Hodge Podge has to offer. However, the fanciful colors and barrel like proportions keep it memorable. In my opinion, it’s a good toy for people who want a fantasy cock but aren’t looking for a full creature feature. Thus, the name Changeling is apt; a thing that mimics a human but still has some delightful fantasy flare.
The Small size is honestly kind of cute. Well, it is until you realize that the max girth is still two inches thick, which, by most standards is a pretty big ask. But the usable length of about 4.5 inches makes it seem more approachable. The design also has an interesting feature; upon insertion it locks into my body. I could sort of use it like a plug, which isn’t a feature I find with many toys. Now, it isn’t an actual plug and likely wouldn’t be comfortable for long term wear (I confess, I hadn’t tried it and yours truly only just considered the possibility), but it IS great for lazy people like me who like lounging around and feeling full.
In terms of sensation, the smooth shaft and glossy finish of the changeling, devoid of veins or any crazy textures is primarily to give the user a feeling of fullness. So texture sluts might be disappointed, but I think they would know that going in. I, personally, think this toy excels at that. But make no mistake dear reader, this toy is expecting you to be ready for it. Especially the Medium size.
The Medium size is another beast entirely. When looking at the specs, 2.75 doesn’t SEEM like too much of a jump from 2 inches. But when I tell you that the toy took ages of sweating and grunting to merely pop the head in? I am not joking. It is a difference that you would do well to consider. But by god once I got it in, I felt like the queen of queens. It was overwhelming. One moment, my eyes were squeezed shut, futilely smushing the toy around my vulva, desperate to get it in and then…the pop. In that instant I could swear I heard a heavenly choir. I had achieved it, and I had a swelling of pride in my body. The pleasure was blended both in the physical feeling of stretching and in the mental celebration of having overcome the toy. The day I managed to take the Medium was also the day I was able to fist myself, so if one is interested, the Changeling line might be excellent warm up for someone taking a crack at fisting.
In all, the Changeling line is a line of toys that must be taken seriously and will force you to slow down. The thing that they do above all else is stretch you, so if you’re looking for a G-spot missile or an A-spot stroker, look elsewhere. But if you want to stretch yourself and you want a toy that’s going to feed your fantasies of be fucked by a faery lover? Then the Changeling is a fabulous option.
Thank you Hodge Podge Entourage, you’re an absolute darling!
