Can Onaholes Be Used With a Partner?
An onahole is a male-oriented device for pleasure that provides a realistic experience using soft material, internal texture, and pressure. While onaholes are considered individualistic in males' use for pleasure, their application doesn’t necessarily need to be limited to that. There is a growing number of couples who are recognizing that onaholes can be used in a relationship as well.
Rethinking What Onaholes Are For
The notion that onaholes are “only for solo use” is largely cultural rather than practical. At the end of the day, an onahole is a device—a device for pleasure, for stimulation, for exploration. Just as with massage oils, vibrators, or other adult-themed accessories, the onahole can be incorporated into the relationship, provided that the couple is willing to consider the idea.
The onahole can be a novelty for some couples, while for others, it can be a solution to issues of mismatched libidos, endurance, or physical limitations—again, provided that the couple is able to see the onahole as something to be used collectively rather than as a way to become more distant from one another.
How Onaholes Can Fit Into Partnered Intimacy
When used in conjunction with a partner, the onahole can function as part of the foreplay or play, but not necessarily the main event. This can shift the emphasis to communication and awareness.
In some instances, couples use onaholes during foreplay to desensitize the genital area or to help one partner relax. In other instances, couples use onaholes after the event to extend the time spent in close contact without additional physical demands. In these instances, the onahole is used as an accessory, not the main event.
Communication Comes First
As with any other intimate object, it's not the object but the talk that's important. You should talk about the onahole with your partner regarding the reasons why you want an onahole, how it will be used, and any concerns you or your partner may have.
The biggest concern for some individuals may not be the act itself but the emotional impact. There's a concern about being replaced or compared. However, talking about these with your partner will change your perception of the onahole from a personal act to a shared experience. If both partners are aware of the use and purpose of an onahole, it will not be an awkward experience.
When Onaholes Can Be Especially Helpful
However, there are circumstances wherein onaholes may actually enhance intimacy. There are couples who are in the process of medical recovery, fatigue, long-distance relationships, or performance anxiety. In this regard, the onahole may be a means to keep intimacy alive. Rather than worry about what is missing, couples can actually focus on what is possible.

Conclusion

The onahole is not meant to be isolating or replacement-oriented. Like any other adult device, its effectiveness will depend on its use. An onahole may be a means to add more variety to a couple’s intimate explorations.
