Not me, but a girlfriend. Same as any other piercing - be gentle, don’t play with it, wash with saline twice a day, either swabbing with cotton balls or holding a cup of water up and soaking the area for 5 minutes while in the shower. Avoid sex and vigorous exercise for 2-4 weeks until it’s healed.

Avoid exercises which could create friction against the piercing. Otherwise do exercise.

Yeah, I've seen it in porn

I guess that answers the title, but not the post body question.

Lotta people hate reading anything longer than a sentence. Reminds me of online reviews that say "idk I haven't used it yet" and give it 2 stars or something. Drives me up the fucking wall.

Those exist because of shitty companies pestering their users to create reviews.

"Please give us 5 stars and then you will receive 10% off"

Me, voting "3 stars. Product good but company said I’ll get 10% off if I rate it with 5 stars"

Not just pestering but flat out lying. "Someone has asked you about your experience with ." I think I answered one or two before giving it some thought and realizing what it was.

Even before the product has arrived, at that.
