“Everything should be natural,” some will say. “But what’s the point of being natural without an orgasm,” others will argue. So, the first reason to use sex toys is banal: pleasure. This is especially true for women who find it difficult to achieve orgasm without strong clitoral stimulation, and men who tend to come to the finish line too quickly.
Sex toys bring variety to the lives of people who are not in a relationship. Of course, they will not be able to completely replace a living person (although manufacturers of sex robots are working in this direction), but they will definitely brighten up the gray everyday life.
The same applies to people who have been in a relationship for a long time. A little variety in sex will only refresh the union.
In the end, even the purchase of sex toys can turn into a small adventure. Provided that to do this, you will not go together to specialized sites, but to a store for adults. Well, if for your couple it has not yet become a routine.
How to choose sex toys
A beginner can get lost in the world of sex toys. Therefore, the optimal solution for the start is to determine which zone and which type of stimulation you are most interested in, and choose the simplest model. If you rush to buy a multifunctional and expensive device, you risk wasting money. Start with the basics. After that, it will become clear where to go next and whether you need it at all.
User reviews will also be a good hint. They will help you get a better idea of your future purchase.
For those who want to test as many devices as possible — a tip: start with cheap products. They are not suitable for long-term use, but they will clearly demonstrate what is what. After that, you can choose a better model.
Safety precautions
- Read the instructions before use. So, the risk of all sorts of excesses will be significantly reduced.
- Remember the rules of hygiene. Always wash your hands before and after using the toys. The toys themselves also need to be washed (preferably with antibacterial soap) and stored in a clean place. Individual devices require special cleaning, so do not forget about the first point.
- It is better to dry toys in a relaxed way. If you do not have this option, use a towel. But before you hide the devices, make sure that every detail and nook and cranny are dry.
- Try to use condoms, especially if your toy is porous. Otherwise, you can reward yourself with some disease.
- Do not use the same toy for anal and then immediately for vaginal penetration (and vice versa). There is a serious risk of getting an infection. However, condoms can solve this problem.
- If you use intimate lubricants, remember: water-based lubricants are suitable for silicone products. Other lubricants may damage the toy. By the way, the lubricant is better to first test on the skin and make sure that it does not cause an allergic reaction in you.
Sex toys for men
Masturbator
The male masturbator is a staunch friend of the bachelor. Different models simulate vaginal, oral, or anal penetration and have different internal structures. They can look very realistic, representing certain parts of the body, or… not so much. Some male sex toys vibrate and have suction properties that enhance the sensations.
Sex dolls and sex robots
An option for those who do not accept half measures. However, to use it, you need to be either fairly well-off, or very undemanding. These dolls are much more expensive than the usual male sex toy. Because silicone dolls that look really like people are expensive, and cheap inflatable ones look somewhat comical.
Vacuum pump
These devices work by pumping out air. They are not a pair toy in the classical sense (although you can experiment), but they are suitable for both partners, since there are models for men and women. The pumps are designed to increase the penis and restore an erection. They are also suitable for masturbation and foreplay.
An erection ring
A toy that enhances the erection and its duration. Modern models often vibrate, giving pleasure to both partners. There are also options with a double attachment for the penis and scrotum.
Penis Attachment
This device performs two functions at once: it prolongs the erection and increases the vaginal (depending on the model and clitoral) stimulation due to the raised surface.
Prostate Stimulator
This toy can be used as an independent device, for additional stimulation during sex, and even to strengthen male sexual health. There are models with and without vibration. For use in a pair, the configuration with an erection ring is convenient.
In general, if you dream about something, most likely, it is already in a specialty store. It remains only to look into it.
