Sex Toys Tips for Beginners

For many people the world of sex toys can seem quite seductive yet at the same time intimidating and confusing. If you have never purchased or used a sex toy before then how do you know where to begin? Nowadays there are so many different types and models which all seem to serve a different purpose it will do your head in if you don’t take the time to narrow down exactly what it is you are looking for.

For starters, you should ask yourself what part of the body you are looking to provide pleasure to. There are sex toys that target the nipples, anus, penis, testicles, vagina, clitoris and more. It is also important to note that there are many toys that are either specifically targeted towards men or women. For example, if you are a man then you probably won’t get much use out of a rabbit vibrator. And if you are a woman then you probably have no need to be looking at masturbation sleeves or cock cages.

There are of course many toys that are not gender specific and are just as popular with men as they are with women. Dildos and butt plugs for example, are equally big sellers among men as they are with women. Whilst dildos are obviously designed with vaginal penetration in mind they can also just as easily be used for anal penetration.

I won’t have time to discuss all of the categories in depth in this article so I have decided to just focus on one category an article for which what will hopefully be an ongoing series. To getting things started I thought it would be a good idea to begin with Anal Toys.

Anal Toys

This is a very popular category for both men and women. The anus and rectum contain almost as many nerve endings as your other erogenous zones so when done right with the correct preparation and patience many people find anal sex and anal masturbation to be incredibly pleasurable. Men have an even further advantage in that it is possible to locate and massage the prostate gland through the anus and rectum. When massaged and stimulated correctly this can cause incredibly intense and pleasurable sensations for the user. Many men claim to have their biggest and most intense orgasms during anal play for this very reason.

In this category you will find a few different types of toys:

Anal Beads: One of the most popular and affordable choices, anal beads typically consist of a small string of pearls designed to be inserted into the anus and withdrawn during climax.

Butt Plugs: Designed with a flared base to help to hold them in place and prevent from slipping inside. Butt plugs are designed to be gently inserted and left in the rectum during sex or self-stimulation.

Prostate Stimulators: Different to butt plugs, these toys are specifically designed and shaped to stimulate and put pressure on the prostate gland. Often quite delicate in design, prostate stimulators will typically have a curved shape or head which helps to make prostate stimulation just that much easier.

Anal Douches & Enemas: Not so much a toy but an important tool to consider if you are new to anal play. By filling these with warm water and releasing the contents into your rectum to help prevent any unwanted messiness you will be more assured of a clean and enjoyable session.

There are even more categories including subcategories like Inflatable Butt Plugs but those main four should give you a good idea of where to start if sex toys targeted towards anal stimulation are something that interests you at all.
