Dilation before intercourse?

[SadieBlake]

Well a month later I have some more feedback. Being diligent about dilation and doing fairly frequent sex play I'm now finding my I have a lot more space in my vagina. Where a month ago I couldn't easily insert a single finger all the way without dilating first, now I can easily do one, and follow right away with a second, no dilation prior.

It's definitely about tightness in the vaginal lining (skin). I know my pelvic floor muscles can accommodate (all the same there as for anal penetration). I've also plenty of experience with how I and my lovers have accommodated girth in anal play and the stretching that happens to the skin as well as the process of accustoming the muscles to both girth and vigorous play.

It's really nice to find I'm slowly but surely becoming more like a natal female down there :-).

I am pretty nervous about commenting on this subject as some people here are so easily offended. Nevertheless it is important information, especially for those who are planning to have srs.
After carefully and thoroughly washing your hands place one finger, or two or three,  inside your mouth and feel the inside of your cheek. That is what the inside of my vagina feels like. Now, push out. That is how "stretchy" it is.
What you are feeling inside your mouth is mucousal tissue. This is now available via the peritoneal graft.
Just something l think anyone considering srs might consider.

Excluding the slipperiness/wetness from saliva? I ask because I know people say that lubrication is required, but based on what my mouth feels like, it seems like none would be. And just to be clear, this mimics the peritoneal method's feel? (Since I know it's relativey new and was under the impression you had your surgery years ago?)

No. It feels exactly the same. I  had colonovaginoplasty in '84. I have never dilated or used lube since. I was able to enjoy spontaneous sex at will. No worries. Mine is mucousal tissue it secretes. The odor is not bad. Musky sweet. I have no experience with the peritoneal graft,  but l understand it is essentially the same type tissue so l imagine it would act the sam, probably without the odor, but who knows. In either case, l consider it far superior to a penile inversion which has the disadvantages mentioned above. It depends on why you want a vagina and how/if you plan to use/enjoy it.

I didnt do the colon-vaginoplasty and I do use lube regularly for both dilation and for sex. If I get turned on enough I do produce my own lubricant but I would say it's not enough for continual sex.
