Before I dive into this topic, I have to say that this is one of the types of play or fetishes where you have to know what you're doing. Someone can get hurt, so be careful.

Please note when I talk about subs I may use the pronoun she but I am aware that people of all genders can be subs. I had to look up these meanings to make sure I was getting these right and then I realized there are so many. I had no clue that there were so many. I know about day collars and protection collars but there are so many styles and types.

I feel like we’re at the threshold of a new sex age. “Bare ass” with me just a second, and I’ll explain.

Vibrators and dilators go hand in hand…

I loved my boyfriend, but I couldn’t wait for him to go to work so I could try out my new toy on my own. He knew that I’d ordered a few naughty items, but I’d hidden a tiny bullet vibrator in a drawer to use later. I was practically jumping out of my skin by the time he gave me a peck on the lips and rushed out the door. I waited a few minutes, just long enough to make sure he hadn’t forgotten anything, and then I retrieved it. My hands shook as I ripped open the packaging and loaded the toy with batteries. I watched myself in the mirror as I stripped down to my panties. I’d been wearing lingerie for my boyfriend all week, but the lacy thong I wore today was only for me. I laid back on the bed, caressing my body with my hands before I pulled the panties off too. I’d never used a toy on myself before—I’d always left that to him—but today I wanted to know my body. I pressed the button on the top of the tiny toy, and it roared to life. I could feel the moisture pooling between my legs as I glided the vibrator between them. I moved the toy around, letting out small moans as the sensations traveled through me. My boyfriend had never made me orgasm before, so I felt like I was on a mission to get myself off. I found my breasts with my free hand, using my fingers to play with my perky nipples, but it wasn’t enough. I grabbed my phone and googled erotica, but none of the stories did it for me. I felt frustrated as the vibrator sent waves of pleasure through me. Had I chosen the wrong one? Maybe I needed something more powerful, or maybe it was just me. I was about to give up when I decided to visit a porn site. I’d only looked at porn with my boyfriend before and wasn’t sure what kind I was into. At first, I looked up a couple like us, but that bored me. I decided to look up a threesome, which was something I’d always been curious about. I’d had a chance to be part of a threesome in the past, but I’d always turned them down. Now I was wondering if I’d missed out. I scrolled past most of the videos, until I found one of two girls riding a man. One of the girls was riding his face while the other rode his large cock. The women leaned close to each other, making out between moans, before their lips found each other’s breasts. I felt my pleasure building as I watched them switch positions. The man entered the women from behind as the other woman got in position to be eaten out. I felt an overwhelming desire to be eaten out while my own boyfriend watched, but I doubted he would let that happen. My nerve endings felt like they were about to burst as I caressed my clit with the toy. I pretended that I was the woman who was being eaten out while the man watched. My moans grew louder, and I knew I was close to reaching an orgasm.

If you're new to buying sex toys, it's easy to get overwhelmed. There are so many options and different places to shop! You want to make sure you choose the right one and spend your money wisely. Sex toys tend to be a bit on the pricey side and so you want to feel confident you're making the right choice. If this is your first toy, the important first step is to choose the type of toy you think you'd like to try.

If you’ve ever used a vibrator or other sex toy before, you’re in excellent company, especially these days. Close to half of all men and well over half of all women openly admit to having done so at least once. Way back in the swinging 70s, those numbers were much smaller—perhaps only one or two percent of all people—so we’ve come a long way when it comes to open, honest interest in our own pleasure.

I have the flu. I am absolutely avoiding all contact with human beings until I get better. Fortunately, I have a computer, an internet connection, and a bunch of sex toys.

So you're thinking of buying your first vibrator or dildo... how exciting! Sex toys can be great fun, and a way to really enhance your sexual pleasure. They can be used just by yourself, or you can add some extra fun by using it with your partner. There is a wide variety to choose from, and you have some decisions to make.

I have a confession.

Sex toys are being more accepted in our society within each day. The topic of buying and using sex toys is no longer a taboo, which resulted in sex toy business becoming a very profitable option for anyone interested in getting into it.

We all masturbate—and without exception.
