I Dream of Anal - Sophie - Tan

Sophie is where the I Dream of Anal line crosses the one-kilo mark. At 1,065 g, this tan anal stroker from NS Novelties is heavier than the two white pieces but far lighter than the big tan and brown models, so it suits adults who want more body than a pocket toy without handling a two-kilo block. The skin-tone TPE gives it a more natural look than the white options.

A broad, flatter build

The listed measurements are about 3.4 × 6.8 × 5.3 inches. One of those is much shallower than the other two, so Sophie is wide and comparatively flat instead of tall and round. A profile like that rests more securely on a mattress or towel than a cylinder does, and it gives your hands a broad area to press on. It still lifts easily with one hand when you want to change position.

What the material and texture are like

Sophie is made from TPE, the stretchy, cushiony elastomer found in many realistic strokers. It has more give than silicone and feels closer to skin once warmed. The channel inside is textured, so there's friction and detail as you move rather than an even glide. TPE responds strongly to pressure: squeeze the sides and the inside tightens; relax your grip and it loosens again.

Who Sophie suits

Sophie makes sense if you've outgrown a pocket sleeve and want noticeable weight, but don't have the storage space or arm strength for a two-kilo toy. It's less travel-friendly than the white models, and if you mainly want a fully set-down, hands-light experience, one of the heavier pieces will stay put better.

Setting up a one-kilo anal stroker

With Sophie's weight, there are two easy ways to use it. Held in both hands, it works like a large stroker. Set down on a folded towel near the edge of the bed, it lets you kneel and move your hips while one hand keeps it steady. Warm the toy first and use plenty of lube at the entrance; heavier TPE pieces take a bit longer to reach body temperature, so a few minutes under warm running water helps.

Sizing it against the rest of the line

If Sophie sounds like too much, the white Nicki is about 220 g lighter and stays firmly in handheld territory. If you'd rather have more weight to lean into, the tan Carly comes close to two kilos and has the broadest footprint in the series. Sophie sits neatly between the two.

After-care

Once you're done, rinse the channel under warm water, work a little mild soap or toy cleaner through it, and rinse again until no slipperiness remains. Press the water out and leave it to air-dry fully with the opening facing down. Keep it out of sunlight and away from heaters, other toys and dyed fabrics, since TPE can react with some plastics and absorb colour. A light sprinkle of cornstarch on the dry surface stops it feeling tacky next time.
