Dildos

Discovering Dildos

Dildos remain a firm (or flexible, if you prefer) favourite in the sex toy world. Offering people the chance to experience full penetration on their own or with a partner, they are brilliant ‘tools’ for internal stimulation.

Because many are specifically shaped to compliment your internal contours, dildos are a great way to discover your G-spot. With G-spot-seeking curves, using one in tandem with a vibrator is a fun way to experience the elusive blended orgasm.

While once seen as a toy exclusively for people with vulvas, dildos are actually a perfect toy for everybody. Why? Because, thankfully, everyone has a butt. Anal dildos and strap-on dildos are a brilliant choice for hitting the prostate (if you have a penis) and exploring anal pleasure (if, well, you have an anus).

To find a dildo suitable for anal play, just make sure you’re opting for one with a wide flared base. These protect you from over-insertion and stop it… ahem… wandering.

Which Dildo Should I Choose?

One of the most popular sex toys on the market, dildos have a long history of getting people’s rocks off. In fact, archeologists unearthed a 28,000 year old one, which was made of stone and camel dung. Lovely.

Luckily, these popular toys are formed in a range of materials. If you’d prefer your bedroom pal to not be made from dung-related sources, you may like to try one made of silicone, or even a glass dildo (trust us, they’re amazing).

Diverse in size, texture and functionality, there are options to suit every taste. For those who are just getting to grips with the delights of dildos, a simple slimline one is the best choice.

Once you’ve mastered the petite end of the scale, you can start to explore other options, such as vibrating dildos, realistic dildos and if you’re really after some girth, giant dildos.

How to Use a Dildo With a Partner

But don’t think you have to save all of this fun for yourself - a dildo ride is an awesome thing to share with your lover.

For one, they offer you the chance to experience double penetration without the need to enlist a third member (these puns write themselves). Just remember, if you’re going anywhere near the back door to use plenty of anal-safe lube.

Double-ended dildos are an awesome couple’s toy, one which can be used by any gender. You can use them vaginally or anally, all while facing your partner and pleasuring them at the same time. You can even use these bad boys alone, just make sure you opt for a flexible one.

Or you could try pegging. By using a strap-on dildo, couples can penetrate each other, all while keeping it strapped to their body. For hetero couples, pegging can be an exciting way to play with role-reversal. For lesbian couples, they’re the perfect toy to experience deep vaginal penetration.
