Olivia Newton John wasn't referring to sex when she sang words similar to those in the title of this article, but I support creative reconstruction. This story is about using electricity to enhance your orgasms.

In previous articles of this series, we've talked about and experimented with prostate massage, masturbation sleeves and various methods of delivering internal and external vibrations to the cock or balls or prostate gland. Now we'll look at electricity.

The male of the species - any species - is driven by the need to scatter its seed. For human males, that translates to more orgasms, better orgasms, bigger orgasms and even spontaneous orgasms. Porn has lots of examples but it's more fun pursue the same results at home, alone or with a partner.

Electricity entered public consciousness in 1752, when Benjamin Franklin performed his famous kite experiment. Hollywood made electricity sexy in 1931, when Colin Clive practically had an orgasm onscreen, screaming "It's alive! It's alive!" as his Frankenstein monster rose from the slab. So it goes to figure, if a jolt can animate dead flesh, it offers possibilities for your cock.

Boyzshop.com sent me an electrosex starter kit, consisting of a power box, lead wires, adhesive pads, a tube of contact gel, penis bands and a silicon butt plug. I had to Google up the manual, which was supposed to be included, but wasn't. Not being a geek at heart, the manual proved to be absolutely necessary, because I couldn't figure out how to get the contraption to work. The manual also included important warnings, including advice on where not to stimulate and complications that may arise if used by a person with a pacemaker. The power box required three AAA batteries.

Practice a bit on an area that won't leave you feeling electrocuted if you get it wrong the first time - maybe your inner thighs. Leave the most sensitive regions, like your cock, rectum, balls and nipples until you become more experienced. The controller has seven pre-programmed modes, each of which can be set to run for 5, 10 or 15 minutes at any of 16 intensity levels. You can also choose automatic, which will cycle through all seven modes for approximately 20 minutes. Note the position of the "Off" switch.

Choose an area where the skin is smooth (or shave a patch). Electrode gel, while not required, improves the conductivity and the felt intensity.

The penis bands were extremely pleasurable. The band are a soft elastic material and are adjustable, so a proper fit is assured. I wasn't able to experience a spontaneous orgasm - and jacking off is next-to-impossible while wearing the bands - but letting necessity be the mother of invention is part of the fun. And the vibes are pretty awesome, even if you don't cum. A promotional video I found online (heterosexual, alas) showed a guy wearing the penis bands while his GF had two adhesive pads attached to either side of her pussy; they used their hands to stimulate themselves and each other while the machine delivered its pleasurable buzzes and jolts.

If you have used vibrators, you probably know that the intensity and pattern of vibrations can vary greatly. With electrosex, that is increased logarithmically. The names for the various operational modes of the power box (acupuncture, massage, slow stroke, scrapping, cupping, naprapathy, united stroke) afford no idea whatsoever of what each one feels like, so try them all. You soon find the "Whoa, what was that?!" mode that you'll want to use with all the various attachments.
