Dildos: Usage , Types, and Safety Tips

Once you have a general aesthetic and size in mind, it’s important that you pick the right material and when considering which dildo to buy. Each of the materials below lend themselves to specific use-cases depending on what you’re looking for. While the people at Dame don’t seem to regard the company as catering exclusively to women, both the company’s name and current product lineup suggest otherwise.

If you’re sexually aroused, your body releases the feel-good hormones dopamine and oxytocin. For couples, that might mean trying out new sensations or dynamics in the bedroom. When it comes to dildos, there are different thicknesses and sizes to choose from. We recommend for those with less experience to choose a slightly smaller length and girth. For example the Stronic Thrusting Vibrator is ideal for beginners as the insertable length is 5.5 inches.

It even has a hole in the base (red circle above) where you can slip in your bullet vibrator for a rumbly experience. But I know many who have purchased sex toys from a convenience store and been pleased with the product. It has a soft realistic penis tip that feels comfortable for anal insertion, but it’s not too squishy where its tough to insert.

Tapered shapes are better for stretching and loosening up for bigger objects, as they allow you to gradually move on to wider and wider parts of the toy. These are mostly niche use cases, but they can add some exciting ways to play over and above traditional penetrating toys. The name is a bit of a misnomer – yes, strapless strapons technically work without the need for straps or a harness. But due to the weight they work best when used with a backless harness that keeps the dildo in place and provides pleasure to both parties. Whereas butt plugs and vibrators are more straight forward as their use-cases are more narrow, there’s just a ton of different ways to use a dildo.

The zip-up storage case is also next level and really helps keep your glass dildo safe since it’s so sturdy and has an elastic to keep it securely in there. In terms of price, Ashley, who tested this dildo Glass Dildos, found that this dildo was a total steal since you get a pretty versatile dildo with a nice storage bag included! We have a huge selection to choose from, so take the time to have a good hunt and decide which would be best for your fantasies before you buy a dildo.
