For Will, the location is of the primary importance. According to his personal experience, he says, “I think location. I started with two, and I lost one. Just to infection, I guess. It probably wasn’t set deeply enough, or far enough back along the shaft. But it’s all about location. The idea is that it sits like a dorsal fin on a shark, and when you’re in missionary or cowgirl, then it would be stimulating the G-spot. That’s the whole theory behind it.”

However, for him, he did it when he was quite young. In his words, “Yeah. It was more of a thing for my 20s [laughing]. I’m pretty settled down now.” His recovery took him at least a month but he couldn’t wait to have intercourse for a whole month. Thus he failed and he lost the first pearl in about two weeks. In his own words, “He gave me a month, but I couldn’t wait a month [to have sex]. I failed. The first one I lost in about two weeks. It was a bit further towards the end and wore through. It just kind of popped out.”

Surprisingly enough, it wasn’t even that painful. Will explains this experience by saying, “No, because the skin was dead by then. It’s like inserting an implant, so you have to cut a pocket under the skin and separate the skin from the fascial tissue. And then you insert the pearl, and then you put four stitches per pearl. The time frame is really just for those stitches to heal and to make sure you don’t get an infection.”

Clearly, this was something that he did when he was young and he played around it for quite a while. However, he made sure that he tells his partner before getting involved. He says, “Well, this was in my 20s, and quite often my friends would just go around and tell all the girls at the bar because they thought it was funny, and to pique interest. So often people found out about it before I even told them. And yeah, I would generally tell someone, otherwise, they might think that it was a genital wart or something.”
