The Best Queer-Friendly Sex Toys

Many have said it, but let us make it clear: there are no ‘gay sex toys,’ ‘lesbian sex toys’ or ‘straight sex toys’.

It’s true that sex toys are usually designed with certain body parts in mind and marketed to specific audiences, but ultimately, every sex toy is just as queer as any other sex toy.

Sex toys are not gender-specific or restricted based on your gender, sexuality or even your anatomy. Don’t let anything come between you and your own personal sexual happiness journey; if a toy makes you feel good, then it’s a great toy for you, period.

The only non-negotiable sex toy rule is that anything going up your butt needs to have a flared base of some kind to stop encroachment. That’s it, that’s all! Everything else is up to you.

Should You Make Sex Toys a Part of Your Sexual Happiness?

If you want to, then in a word: yes!

Sex toys do all sorts of things our bodies can’t naturally accomplish (like vibrate), and they never get tired of being in the perfect position to stun your sweet spots. You can’t crick a sex toy’s neck or give it a charley horse, after all.

Sex toys aren’t replacements for partners. In fact, a lot of couples find that using sex toys together is a fun and intimate part of their relationship. Plus, depending on your anatomy, sex toys can open up whole new avenues of enjoyment you might not experience otherwise.

Even if you’re not in a relationship, sex toys can do amazing things for your solo sex life. If nothing else, they can help you discover what erogenous zones you definitely want your next lover to be aware of.

So without further ado, here are ten key items you should definitely stash in your toybox, especially if you’re queer or in a non-hetero relationship.

A Strap-On Harness

Spareparts Hardwear Unisex Joque Strap-On Harness
(75)

Fully adjustable with sturdy velcro strapping, this harness sits flush to the body so you have total control over your extra or enhanced appendage. As a bonus, it leaves your ass fully exposed, so there's no way that can interfere with whatever kind of fun you're having. Lastly, it's uniquely fitted with a stretchy O-ring, making it perfect for holding a wide variety of toys.

What customers say: "Save up your pennies and buy this harness! Especially if you're a trans guy, I cannot emphasise this enough - BUY. THIS. HARNESS!! I've tried a few other harnesses before and most are pretty rubbish. This is usually because they try to cater for a wide range of sizes, which means that if you're on the slimmer side, as I am, you can't really adjust the harness tightly enough to have full control over the dildo. This is especially the case for thong style harnesses, which means you then have to use a hand for full control, which is frustrating and unsexy (and for us trans guys, dysphoric too). I never usually write reviews, but felt compelled to for this harness - I've had sex using it a few times now and each time has been a brilliant experience. I used the King Cock 7" dildo with this, which just about fits through the O ring which comes with the harness and I have incredible control over the dildo, as the harness stays very close to my body throughout. Finally, I can go hands-free, which has made me very happy, and my partner is also very happy with the sex we've had."

What customers say: "They felt amazing when my partner squeezed them to release and then put them back on again . I am a big fan on nipple play so was a bit hit with me.I have since ues them a few times with and without my partner but would definitely recommend putting them on for a bit before you plan on having sex and taking them off so you nipples are hard and sensitive just right for being touched, kissed,sucked and played with. if you are thinking about getting some go for it you won't be disappointed."
