I just learned of this and is oddly intrigued by it. Urban dictionary has a nice description about it.
Quote:
Not to be confused with the sport of "noodling", fishing for catfish with your arm, leg, or little sister, Raw Noodling may be used to identify the sexual, though immensely dangerous activity of gently fitting a thin spaghetti, or more appropriately angel hair noodle into the urethra of a man's shaft, sliding it as far as it goes or otherwise until he is notified by the sharp pain running through his penis.
This is usually initiated as a sexual fetish response and can be done before, after, or without coitus at all. Raw noodling is rumored to have first developed in Italy, though it's true origin is still disputed.
The practice of raw noodling, in it's carnal form, is altogether unsurprisingly dangerous and rather unwise. Those unfortunate enough to be granted the uncordial title of a habitual "raw noodler" are most likely extremely demented human beings and would like nothing more than to invade your own urethra with dried durum wheat semolina pasta sticks. These individuals could be anyone - your local store (Big 5) clerk, your child's friend's soccer mom or dad who picks him up for his games, or the custodial technician at work, mopping floors in the after hours when you're working overtime and seemingly inching closer and closer to your desk. You want to scream "stay back, you weird, little man!", but you find yourself short of breath and perfusely perspirating.
It is best to remain cautious when "hookin' up" with such folk.

But then there's also something called "sounding".
Cock-stuffing, or "sounding" as it is called in the S&M community, involves inserting smooth, long, and thin surgical steel rods called "sounds" (hence the name "sounding") into a man's urethra. The two most commonly used "sounds" are the Van Buren, which has a J-shaped curve on the end, and the Dittle, which is straight. Other objects, such as thermometers, may do the trick, but metal sounds are recommended because they are easier to clean and have no chance of breaking when in use. While a glass thermometer may be readily available, the risk of breaking (and leaking harmful mercury) makes this a risky option.
Sounders use lots of lube, so the "sound" can easily slide in on its own (gentle guidance may be necessary; pushing or forcing can cause tearing of the fragile tissue). If you encounter a constriction in the urethra that the "sound" will not pass through (most likely scar tissue), do not try to drive it through. More lube and a narrower sound may be more safe and successful.
Saliva isn't generally recommended as a lubricant because it dries quickly (as you may have discovered already). Also, sugars from the mouth can be found in saliva that may cause urinary tract infections (UTIs). Sugars also can be found in some types of lube, sometimes listed as glycerin in the list of ingredients. Ultimately, a water- or silicone-based, glycerin-free lube with a thin consistency will probably work best for "sounding." Silicone-based lubes are longer lasting, but water-based lubes may have a thinner consistency. However, some people find silicone-based lubes to be a bit harder to clean up. Men find what works by experimenting.
People enjoy using "sounds" for the pleasurable sensations felt while being inserted. They are also popular in the S&M community as a form of power exchange. Some of the curved "sounds" make getting an erection extremely difficult. If a penis starts to become erect, the person inserting the sound must wait until the erection subsides before continuing. Often sounds are locked into place so that a submissive partner cannot get an erection.
The main risks with "sounding" include tearing or cutting the urethra and infection. Anything inserted into the urethra is to be cleaned to reduce the chance of infection. Some discomfort may be felt later if the sound has stretched the urethra. If that happens, people use smaller "sounds." Some men also feel burning when urinating, due to irritation. If the feeling continues for an extended period of time, the urinary tract may have become infected. If this occurs, or if there is blood in the urine, the person needs to see a health care provider. For those who use sounds, being open and honest with the provider is vital, in order to discuss alternatives for avoiding infection if they plan to continue "sounding."
Just because you "don't do it often" doesn't mean you needn't do it safely each time. Leave the thermometers, with the risk of broken glass and mercury poisoning, behind and invest in a "steel" sound. They can be found at some adult toy stores or online.
