Incredible pleasure, together: Shop sex toys for couples
Foreplay. A hotly debated topic - some of us love it, and some of us just aren’t quite so convinced. But done right, and the build-up to sex can be just as good, if not better than the main event!
Sadly, foreplay has a tendency to be overlooked. Sometimes this can be because it feels awkward (especially with a new partner), or because it can feel too contrived. Particularly if things have become a little bit too routine lately…
From iconic films and TV shows, to unmissable memes, these are our top picks for sexy trending costumes of 2021.

Sex doesn't have to stop just because your period starts.
A little tender loving care will go a long way to ensuring your Fleshlight male sex toy will give you a life-time of enjoyment.
After use, remove the gel Fleshlight insert from the plastic canister and run hot tap water through it to remove fluid deposits.
Towel-dry or air-dry the gel insert.
The gel insert will feel tacky or sticky after washing - this is normal.
To restore the original silky feeling of the insert, powder it with corn starch. Powdering it is not necessary to care for the insert.
To properly re-position the gel insert inside the plastic canister, reach through the small end of the canister and pull the insert down into place.
There are times in life when you might not feel all that sexy. Lots of people take a while to get back into sex after having a baby, for example. Maybe you’ve been ill, injured, or under a lot of stress. Or maybe you’re just too busy and sex isn’t a priority!

If your sex education was anything like ours, it was probably a lot of putting condoms on bananas and adding labels to grainy print-outs of the female reproductive system.
And while all that stuff is very important (particularly when it comes to practicing safe sex), there is a lot that it didn't cover - especially when it comes to the pleasure aspect.
You've probably heard that humans are one of the only species to have sex for pleasure rather than solely for reproductive purposes, along with pigs, bonoboes, and dolphins. So why do we only ever learn about the reproductive side?
Well, because we believe you can never know enough about sex, here are a few things that we think everyone should learn about the enjoyable side of getting down and dirty.

Next time you’re playing with a vibrator, a dildo, or your fingers, add lube! It instantly creates a smooth, sensual glide, boosting your natural lubrication (or creating a comfortable ‘wetness’ where there wouldn’t usually be any, like during anal sex).
