How to Use a Dildo: Step by Step Instructions with Video

(Don’t worry Glass Dildos, we note which ones are anal-safe below.) Want some hands-free fun? Opt for a toy with a strong suction cup, says David Khalili, LMFT, a sex and relationship therapist. Many of the standard realistic dildos on the market may be girthier or longer than you’re used to.

And judging by the hundreds of dildos we’ve seen, that generally matches the hard data. There’s a lot of features packed into this medium-sized dildo (squirting, vibration, suction cup base). Available with either a suction cup base for hands-free play, or a clit-stimulating ‘saddle’ for strap on use. There are 9 sizes available ranging from 4.5 up to 9.2 inches of insertable length, and 1.4 to 2.5 inches of shaft diameter. So there’s pretty good variety for whatever shape you’re looking for, whether short and girthy, long and thin, or a more proportional size in between.

We also deeply appreciate that some of its couples bundles are built with the awareness that not all couples are one man and one woman. Many competitors offer couple’s bundles with a woman’s toy and a man’s toy , but We-Vibe mixes it up. Lovense offers an experience you won’t find elsewhere thanks to its partnerships with two dozen popular sites for cam performers. Everything happens through the company’s VibeMate smartphone app, which is distinct from the app you use to control your own toys. Pay close attention to the term “insertable length” when you see it. Not all companies advertise the total and insertable length, but it’s an important distinction, especially when a dildo features a base or a dedicated grip.

The Hung Rider product has a total length of 14 inches and a width of 2.5 inches. The male strap on dildo will feel amazing against your skin. If you’re going for realism, the average penis size is around 5.15 inches of insertable length and 4.6 inch circumference (1.45 inch diameter).

But the sanitation level is not as high as the first three dildos. After all, can we really say a skin-care product is the “best” for people over 50 if the only testers we’ve solicited opinions from folks who have yet to hit 30? Can we honestly deem a high-end diffuser worthy of your hard-earned cash if it’s never been tested on curls?
