The Wank Sock. A True Thing, or an Urban Myth?

[HirplesWithHaggis]

Chatting this afternoon, the topic of the Wank Sock arose. I have young adult sons in their 20's, my friend has an 18yo boy. While they all do their own laundry these days, my friend and I recall the days of the balled-up socks randomly distributed around the room, which we just chucked into the washing machine and unballed when clean, for fear of, well... biological samples tbh. And I don't mean snot.

But realistically, how would one use a wank sock? Would it be placed upon the member like an overgrown, ill-fitting condom, or just used to catch flying fish? If the former, wouldn't rubbing yer delicate man membranes with trainer-sweaty cotton/wool/polyester/blend of same be a bit sore? I mean, gently caressing with clean silk, I can see a certain frisson there, but teenage boys don't often own silk socks.

If the latter, why socks, specifically? Why not T shirts, underwear, or the more traditional (if less environmentally-friendly) Andrex Man Size? (Other brands and sizes, including pocket,are available.)

AIBU to think the wank sock is no more real than the Tooth Fairy?

(Yes, recent NC, been around for a while though.)

Oh dear God, a basket of muslins for wanking in. Thats the most middle class thing EVER. Isnt that what boxes of tissues in bedrooms are for? Or am i just common then ?

I always just wiped DH spunk in his discarded boxer shorts. im the one who has to do the washing after all

Yep - wank socks are definitely a real thing! Also known as bunk puppets for those sleeping in bunks (dorm rooms/tour coaches/etc)

I know someone (a friend of DH) who used to use a tshirt as his "spaff rag" and then throw it under his bed. He went away for a week and his Mum had washed and ironed it and left it on his bed. I'd like to hope she didn't know what it was used for but it was apparently very crusty! Blergh!

In the future, mumsnetters will be using "a basket of muslin cloths in a wicket basket by the bed" as proof of long-term membership if they have to name change for sensitive topics. "Penis beaker" is sooooooo last year.

Err... It's totally ok to castrate my DSs before they hit puberty, right?

After reading that Tenga review, I'm hoping that wondering if they make a differently-shaped version for women!

It sounds quite nice.

I didnt just read that...i didnt...i didnt...heads for the wine...

OK, they do but they're designer vibrators. Very pretty, but I want this squishy, silky, textural experience! At least, I think I do, based on one Scotsman's review.

I need to get a grip. Not that sort of grip!

Oh, god, I've killed wanksock thread I will never live this down.

*the. THE wanksock thread! Please let there be only one!

You don't need a sock with a fleshlight.

Word of warning to teenage boys (and their mothers/girlfriends) The fungus that causes athletes foot also causes ringworm and crotch rot!!! So make sure they have boil washed socks to wank with and they are not using used ones. Just a thought.

I read about raw warm thinly sliced liver in a loo roll tube (no fecking idea where) . Luckily my DS won;t touch liver in any way.

Not Googling anything mentioned on here (I do NOT want it appearing on my browsing history)

Why do people worry about their browser history? It's so easy to clear

OMG I just googled cum box and google found www.cookingwithcum.com. Eeeeuuuuuggghhhhhh

From that link:

"Semen is often freshly available behind most bar counters and adds a personal touch to any cocktail."

No thanks, I'll stick to pork scratchings

AlexD, your advice is probably wise, but you may be addressing the wrong audience here. A wicker basket of wank-muslins is one thing, freshly boil-washed socks is just getting weird.

Someone I work with told me he had once wanked into a sock when he was 14yo and staying at a friend's house overnight (obviously some urgency to wank there and then... Boys eh)
The next morning he put the sock back on!!!

Men are disgusting. Fact!

Wank socks are real. I think I first discovered the wank sock when I was sleeping over at a friends house. She was in the room beside me and the parents were down the hall. It's just a good way to remain covert and tidy. No extended time in the washroom, and no mess to clean up off yer belly.

Wank socks also feel good. The texture of the sock can tickle the penis (the head in particular) in a way that no other form of masturbation can achieve.

It's a great re-use for when socks go missing, or become too worn to wear much longer.

Lately I've been so lazy with cleaning up after a wank or after sex that I've been wasting perfectly good t-shirts. I actually forgot about the wank sock until now. I have three single socks kicking around that easily would have saved me some re-purposed t-shirt cum rags.

Really sort of a novelty imo, but they have their uses :)

Not in the same room beside me. Haha that would have been nice.

Hell I used to jerk off in condoms sometimes. You women complain about the mess we make. Well we have to deal with it as well. Busting a but in a sock or a condom while laying down saves unwanted mess. You think we like to go to the shower of hang over the sink every time we want a clean wank? I'll wank in a crisps bag if I feel the need

Bust a nut*

Are you getting off on this, chachmaster? I see no other reason for posting it.
