It uses water to tug on your wiener and is supposed to make it permanently larger over time. people are saying it’s way better than normal ones and I want to know if it’s actually legit. anyone try one?

Has tugging on your wiener since you were 12 made it permanently longer?

It’s definitely bigger than when I was 12 so I guess it’s working.
