    • 2021 November 8, Addie Tsai, AKALAC, “To Strap Or Not To Strap — That Is The Question”, inAutostraddle‎[1], archived fromthe original on8 November 2021, Lesbian Sex‎[2]:
      After that, I graduated up to my first serious queer relationship where I learned the ropes. The first partner who strapped me made it everything I had wished for. She was thoughtful, patient, and would take her cues from how I responded. It was the complete opposite of my first sexual experience which was deeply disappointing and harmful. She bought a newstrap just for us — a purple one with a Black harness. She had trouble putting it on, and it was important to her that she didn’t get dressed in front of me. As she struggled in the bathroom with the door open I laughed. “Don’t look!” she screamed as I heard her adorably grunt. She refused my giggly filled offer of help but that little moment beautifully eased the mood for my first time, releasing the tension I felt at being awkward and so new to strap-on sex, especially with a partner who had over a decade more experience than me.

    • 2022 June 29, Archie Bongiovanni, “The Best Sex Toys For Trans Folks and Non-Binary Horndogs”, inVice Media‎[5], archived fromthe original on29 June 2022‎[6]:
      One of the side effects of strap-on sex is that sore pelvic bone feeling you get after pounding into a hungry body. Silicone dildos might feel amazing inside, but they have a tendency to hit and rub against the most delicate parts of the person wearing thestrap.

      David Arquette was given the belt because he's a celebrity. Period. I wasn't that upset about it because even the on-air product treated it as laughable. It was a "fluke" that Arquette managed to grab thestrap, and he held it for less than a week. But there was no point in it....that I do agree with.
    • 2015, Arnold Furious, “Unforgiven 2002”, inThe Complete WWE Guide Volume #6,→ISBN,page60:
      During 2002, Triple H began this run of title defences of the Big Gold Belt. He'd basically been given thestrap earlier in the month and there was a feeling he didn't deserve it.

      When people like me were deserting the WWE during the championship reign of JBL, "The Wrestling God", Vince didn't take thestrap off of him. He's certainly not going to do anything because of this little piffle.
