The variety of sex toys is surprising. Sex toys change from purely male or purely female sex toys to toys which you can use by both sexes. There are also some sex toys that can also be classified as sex aids or marital aids.

THE OBJECTIVE OF Sex Toys

Some adult toys aid the man’s erection, stimulate the feminine genitals to become more sensitive or provide a different feel to ‘normal’ sex. Other adult toys offer an ‘environment’ for variations in sex, for instance so called orgy bed sheets. Sometimes they are used to greatly help someone who has difficulty with unaided sex to accomplish sexual satisfaction. However most sex toys provide a new way to directly stimulate the female or male genitals to attain sexual satisfaction.

Using sex toys can offer new experiences and variation in the sexual experience. Additionally, it may provide a fantasy element for enhancing or revitalising a relationship.

The usual expectation is that a sex toy provides direct stimulation of the genitals in foreplay and/or during sexual activity or as a means to obtain orgasm through only the stimulation supplied by the sex toy.

Types of Sex Toys

Vibrating Sex Toys

Probably the most well known sex toys are ‘vibrators’ which, because the name suggests, provide stimulation of the genitals using vibration. They’re mainly used to stimulate the clitoris, but may also be used to stimulate any other the main female body or that of a man’s.

The simplest of the are pencil or wand shaped (though normally thicker than a pencil). They often have an internal battery (or two) which powers a little electric motor. Sometimes the battery power and controller are external and connected to the vibrator by a wire. This motor is fitted with a small, out of balance, weight attached to the shaft. As this weight rotates it throws the motor and vibrator right into a small circular movement which causes the vibration you feel.

With a vibrator that has a controller, because the power is increased the speed of the motor increases sufficient reason for it both rate and strength of vibration. Both strength and rate of vibration effects how stimulating you discover the sex toy. The very best effect will not be as strong and as fast as possible. The optimum settings may change as your degree of excitement builds. To get the best results it is worth investing in a vibrator which is controllable.

Different vibrators will have different characteristics and you may well find you prefer one combination a lot more than another as well as your preference may even vary based on which part of the body you are stimulating.

More recently electronic vibrator controllers have appeared which provide not merely the static control of power/speed but also let you select patterns of power pulses and surges. These can be very effective.

There are also other vibrating sex toys such as for example butterfly stimulators and vibrating penis rings.

Other Powered Sex Toys

There are some sex toys that use other ways to supply mechanical stimulation. These usually depend on a motor that makes the sex toy continually change its shape which provides a sort of rotational movement or makes it move back and forth. The back and forth movements are occasionally powered by an air pump rather than a motor. The movements have already been used to create, for example, mechanical licking tongues, vibrators that ‘penetrate’ the vagina and mouth simulators to provide a man a ‘blow job’.

On 震動棒 and many more expensive, there are ‘sex machines’ that incorporate thrusting and vibrating dildos.

Combination Sex Toys

So far we have covered vibrating, moving and thrusting adult toys. Because you can have guessed these are all offered in a bewildering selection of combinations.

A common combination in many ‘Rabbit Style’ vibrators is clitoral stimulation using vibrations and vaginal stimulation using movement and sometimes a thrusting motion aswell.

Many sex toys add varying textures with their surfaces; a dildo or vibrator may have ridges or soft spikes or a rippled shape.

Sensation Change Sex Toys

Some sex toys rather than provide vibrating or moving stimulation, change the feel of sex.

For instance there are a variety of sleeves to put over the penis to provide different sensations for both partners while engaged in penetrative sex.

There are rings that squeeze the base of the penis and/or tighten the scrotum that assist the man’s erection and also changes his sensations. There are penis extenders and thickeners which may provide a man’s partner greater sensations during penetration.

There are a wide variety of lubricants that may significantly change the feel of sex.

You can find PVC and Polyurethane bed sheets that are water and oil proof that can be used for slippery or messy sex.

Why Use A MASTURBATOR?

A good question is: why do people use a masturbator? Surely fingers, tongues, penises, clitorises and vaginas etc all provide great sexual stimulation and enjoyment.

Well, apart from therapeutic uses (eg erection assistance), adult toys can drive the imagination (being taken by a machine), provide variety (new methods to do old things), vary the stimulating effects in otherwise normal sex (penis sleeves) plus some can provide experiences extremely hard with ‘normal body parts’ (particularly vibrating sex toys and electro-stimulation).

Where To Start

For those who have not tried a masturbator before and don’t yet have a good idea of what you might like, try among the simpler vibrators first. Most probably you will benefit from the experience and then begin to wonder what other delights can be found with more sophisticated vibrators along with other sex toys …
