Ben Wa Balls are one-inch balls inserted into the vagina for stimulation and strengthening. They are small, marble-sized metal balls, usually hollow and containing a small weight that rolls around. They are specifically used for sexual stimulation for the vagina but can also be used in the anus. Other names for the Ben Wa Balls are Burmese bells, Benoit Balls, Orgasm Balls, Venus Balls or Geisha Balls. They aren’t meant to bring the user to orgasm, but instead to act as a tease, something that slowly but surely gets the user into a state of sexual tension. It is possible to leave the balls inside the vagina all day to further this state.
The best part about having Ben Wa Balls (I’m guessing, because I don’t actually own a pair) is that their kind of like stress balls for your vag. When you’re feeling tense and you just need to let go of some of the day-to-day anxiety you’re feeling, you can go home, light some candles and some incense, open up a nice bottle of red and insert your balls. Maybe pick up a trashy magazine or turn on Say Yes to the Dress for a while and just have yourself a ball, so to speak.
The tease factor is also fairly awesome. We live in an instant mashed potatoes society and if we can hold off from fulfilling the ultimate pleasure and achieving orgasm, we’re more likely to feel alive every second of the day, instead of only the thirty seconds it would normally take to rub one out. We need to start embracing the idea of drawn out pleasure. Like Sting did with his whole jumping on the tantric sex thing. Like the Kama Sutra has been trying to teach us. In North America, we’re obsessed with immediate pleasure. We want to orgasm this second, and a few minutes after that and if we only get one orgasm during a sex session, we feel cheated or ripped off. What ever happened to the simple pleasure of experiencing your own or another person’s body? What happened to just smelling and tasting and feeling the person you’re fucking or about to fuck. I realize we can’t spend all of our waking (and sleeping) hours in a perpetual state of sexual bliss, but if we even spent a tenth of the day focusing on that, we’d probably be able to achieve world peace. At the very least, a lot less people would need to go for anger-management therapy.
1. The best thing about my Ben Wa Balls is that I can feed them into my vagina and then sit on a rocking chair and hum away the day.
2. My best friend got a set of Ben Wa Balls as a wedding present. Her mother gave them to her. I think her mom thought they were stress balls that you roll around in your hands. My friend started shoving them up her ass so they could roll around in her rectum.
