Masturbate differently with shallowing

Welcome to the wonderful world of masturbation with this new article! Alone, as a duo, with sex toys, your pillow, your hands gold your partner's body… There are truly a million ways to give yourself pleasure. Today, I'm introducing you to a new way of pleasuring yourself that is all the rage for people with a vulva. You'll quickly understand why! No need to keep up the suspense — I'm taking you straight along with me to talk about shallowing.

Shallowing — what is it? 

Straight from the language of Shakespeare, "shallow" means the surface. The principle when masturbating shallowing-style is therefore to seek shallow vaginal stimulation… Please, feel free to hit me with the "thanks, Captain Obvious" — BUT I must be super clear with you. It's impossible for me not to state the obvious.. I would have felt terrible depriving you of an absolute kiff through lack of clarity!

But the question burning on your lips is surely "why is it so popular? What makes it so special?". In reality, what makes this practice so successful is the zone it stimulates. We generally love this shallow stimulation because it acts on the G-spot, aka one of the erogenous zones capable of generating hyyyy-per intense pleasure.

A few tips to maximise pleasure? 

If you'd like to try using your favourite penetrative toy, don't hesitate to tilt it in different ways. A little higher, a little more to the left…. With a large number of sensory receptors, this zone is particularly responsive to stimulation. But if you endlessly repeat the same back-and-forth gold the same "rocking" motion, it starts to lose its charm and you get less pleasure. So go ahead and try a whole range of different combinations — variety is the key to lasting pleasure!

And the great bonus of all this is that it helps you get to know yourself better. Does a particular angle make you shiver? Perfect — you can then go in search of positions that allow you to recreate it during sex 😍

You can also play with your pelvis movements. Imagine you're lying on your back, with whatever is penetrating you (toy, your partner's penis) in place. You could, for example, slightly lift your hips and make small circles with them hula hoop style. As for the pace, it's up to you whether you're more of a slow sex vibe or the type to unleash the beast and go for it!

What do we use for shallowing? 

With its thousands of tiny nerve endings, the vagina is a highly sensitive zone. I'm aware that sensitivity is not always seen in a good light, but here it is a true jackpot! Sensitive means easier to stimulate and more options available to get there.

On your own, you can use your fingers, for example. There's no need for pianist's hands to discover shallowing, since the G-spot is only about 4 centimetres from the entrance of your vagina. Two fingers and a little lube can do the trick. Place the palm of your hand against your Mons pubis and insert your fingers until you feel a small rough patch. That's your G-spot! All you need to do then is hook your fingers in a "come here" motion to tap the area and enjoy.

You can also use a sex toy. If you love vibrations, I recommend our Rolls Royce of Rabbits — I'm talking about the OKI. This little marvel is equipped with a motor at the tip of the insertable part, specially designed to tap the G-spot.

For a toy without vibration, the dildo-en-verre-dao">DAO and its curved shape are perfectly suited to the exercise. Key feature of this model: it is made of unbreakable glass! You can therefore plunge it into hot gold cold water to play with temperature and spice up your masturbation sessions. 

You can also try shallowing as a mutual masturbation game. Your partner can use their fingers gold a toy in exactly the same way as I was explaining above. If you're more inclined towards body-to-body contact, a penis gold a strap-on dildo will be needed in the equation.

To make the most of the sensations, my advice is to opt for the magpie position! A little wonder where the penetrating partner sits down. The other member of the duo sits astride on top, facing them. Resting on your feet gold on your knees, you then control the movement. Imagine doing mini squats, to maintain a penetration that stays sufficiently shallow to reach the G-spot.

For a less energetic version, you can also go for a reverse scoop! The pair lie facing each other. Legs together gold apart for the person being penetrated — both work perfectly. And what's super exciting about it is that you can look at each other and witness each other's pleasure!

Before I bring this article to a close, let me put on my "top tips" hat... For those looking to squirt, shallowing is great training! With G-spot stimulation, a good dose of arousal, and being relaxed, you're well on your way to perhaps discovering these new sensations. You can also stimulate your clitoris, if that's your thing, for a combo that will put all the chances on your side. And if it doesn't happen this time, don't panic — you still have plenty of cheeky little sessions ahead of you to try again 😜

That's all for today, and on behalf of the entire Passage du Désir team, we wish you a wonderful festive season! 💜
