The Pride Survival Guide

Pride celebrations are often not a short stroll, but a fantastic marathon, with a bit of glitter around every corner. So that you don’t look like a burnt rotisserie chicken while marching through the streets or get slumped early during the party, today we’re sharing our best tips and tricks for a carefree start to the celebration!

1. Keyword: Summer
Apart from a few winter parades, most Pride celebrations take place in the summer. That means sun, heat, and bare skin. Your absolute must-have will undoubtedly be your sunscreen. Anyone who gets burned like a roast chicken has been warned. Fans or mini fans are also welcome. If you want to be dramatic, definitely grab the fan. For those who want to stay cool at the touch of a button, we have our fan with a USB penis attachment (okay, it might not be available yet—but hey, we have ideas). Of course, you can also defy the heat with your chosen outfit and plunge into the fray scantily clad in a harness or just with a boa and glitter.

2. Organization is everything
Identify meeting points! Pride can be extremely confusing (yes, I’m talking about you, Berlin). Cell phone batteries often die faster than your last Grindr chat. And, of course, the necessary dose of humor and composure. In case it rains, or your ex suddenly appears in a harness on the same float as you.

3. Keep your body, desire, and boner happy
We know: Pride without drinks? Difficult. But alcohol can also quickly become a mood killer. So drink plenty of water; you don’t want your dick to stay limp when it really counts. Snacks are a must! Nuts, bars, or protein bombs. You’ll need the necessary energy if you want to swing your hips (or pelvis) afterward. Being ready to fuck is good, but you also need the necessary energy in your body.

4. Sex on the Go
You’re bound to run into a guy or two with whom you’d love to jump into the nearest hedge. What you need are reliable cruising tools. Whether it’s travel-sized lube, deep throat spray, or your favorite cock ring. Even the naughtiest quickie in the park deserves a clean stage with everything it requires. So when you’re about to leave and reach for your bag, double-check that you’re properly prepared.

5. Sex Tips
The early bird catches the worm. A proper Pride day can easily last all day and night. So don’t stress too much about snagging a date quickly. If you get going early, you’ll still have countless hours of hot action ahead of you. And another little tip: some pre-Pride anal play can work wonders for a relaxed approach to things later. Prepare quickly with a plug or fingers so you don’t react like a deer in the headlights later.

The bottom line: If you want to party, you have to be prepared – says a saying we just invented. Just pack smart, be relaxed without stressing yourself and be yourself. Ultimately, Pride is more than just an event; it’s an attitude. And that’s best worn with a bit of glitter on your skin and a big grin on your face.
