Adult Toys For Penetration

Adults of any sexual orientation and gender identity use sex toys. Some are designed to increase pleasure during sex or masturbation; others help explore traditional kinks like restraints, whips, a male masturbator, clamps and pinwheels. Reputable dealers use materials that are free of phthalates and are safe to clean and touch. They may provide detailed instructions regarding care and use.

Dildos

A dildo, or adult toy, is designed for penetration. It usually has a cone-shaped tip that looks like the penis. They can be played with alone or in tandem. Many dildos come in flexible, soft materials like silicone that can be shaped or massaged into different shapes. Others are more rigid, such as glass or metal dildos that can be used to target specific areas of the body.

Silicone dildos are among the most popular because they are non-porous and flexible, so they feel good on the skin. They are also free of latex and phthalates, making them a good option for those with sensitive skin. Some are dual-density with a medical-grade silicone on the outside, and a firmer material inside. Jelly-rubber dildos may be an affordable alternative.

It’s a bit like Goldilocks when it comes to choosing a dildo, as the shape, style, color, and material all play a role. Some dildos have a straighter shape, like the Avant Pride Love Dildo, ($60, Babeland); others are curved, for G-spot stimulation. Other factors include whether or not the toy is harness compatible and its width or girth.

Prostate Massagers

Prostate massagers are made to stimulate the gland and also satisfy the anal sphincter. They are typically shaped to be inserted into the anus, or they have a curved shaft with a bulbous head for targeting the prostate. Using a prostate massager can offer increased sexual pleasure for both partners during sex or masturbation. Many of these toys have multiple speed and vibration settings, which can be adjusted to a user’s satisfaction.

In addition to the pleasure and sexual stimulation, prostate massagers can offer health benefits for men with a prostate issue such as prostatitis. Some men with prostate problems may experience pain when urinating or have difficulty emptying their bladder. Stimulating the prostate can help to relieve these symptoms by encouraging urination and increasing semen production.

To perform a self-administered prostate massage, a person should first apply ample amounts of lubricant to their finger or sex toy. For comfort or hygiene, they can wear a pair of gloves. They can then slowly insert the finger into the anus, until they feel a rounded lump. Once they find the prostate, gently massage it with a circular or backwards and forwards motion. Some men find that masturbating during prostate massage intensifies the sensations.

Prostate massage is not well researched. Some medical professionals believe prostate massage can help men with prostate problems reduce the pain of ejaculations. It is important that people with a urinary system infection avoid prostate massage, as it can introduce bacteria into the area and cause irritation or inflammation.

Anal Toys

Anal toys are sexy toys that are used to penetrate the anal area. They can be used either alone or with a partner. They look like a variety of bulbs attached to a cord with an end grip that lets you insert and remove them. They can trigger orgasms by stimulating the nerves near the entrance of the genital area. Some plugs are equipped with cocks and ball rings that can increase the level of pleasure.

While you could use any toy anally, sex toys that are optimized for this purpose are safer and more comfortable. Toys designed for anal use should have a flared bottom so that they don’t get stuck inside the rectum. They should be free of extreme curves and ridges which could cause pain.

You can buy anal toys online or in-person at a sex shop that specializes in this type of toy. These stores are queer-friendly. They are locally-owned, and they offer a wide range of products. In addition, they usually have knowledgeable staff who can answer any questions about anal play and help you find the right toy for your needs.
