What is a Dildo (Vibrating Dildo)?

The Dildo is by far the best known and most common of all sex toys. Dating back many thousands of years, a dildo is fashioned as a faux phallus, doesn't vibrate (unless it is a vibrating dildo), and is designed for vaginal or anal insertion.

While G-spot and clitoral vibrating sex toys are specifically designed to intensely stimulate one particular part of the vagina, most dildos are designed to provide give you a more generally satisfying feeling of fullness. Dildos of course provide pleasure as you move them in and out of the vagina.

One of the most common practices, is to use your dildo as something firm and satisfying to clench your vaginal muscles around, when enjoying a clitoral orgasm with your vibrator or fingertips. A dildo provides you with a feeling at least a little bit like intercourse with your partner, therefore can help you fantasize and visualize intercouse when enjoying sex solo.

Dildos are available in a wide variety of shapes and textures, so you never have to get bored.

A dildo can be used alone or with a dildo harness, in order that the user can penetrate his or her partner hands-free. This is a common practice among straights and gays alike, and is popularly known as a "strap-on sex." 



Strap On Dildo Sex

Many straight men have discovered the ecstasy of being penetrated in the anus by a lover wearing a strap-on dildo. Besides being an intimate act, this likewise provides great prostate stimulation. Alternatively, men wear dildos in harnesses to experiment with double-penetration on their lovers, or to prolong intercourse after an erection has subsided.

Women also love to turn the tables on their male partners, and feel powerful having a faux penis between their legs.

When using a dildo and harness, imagine that the dildo is actually part of your body (for most people this makes it easier to control). Also, if you have problems with your dildo slipping out of your partner, select a dildo with a slightly bulbous "head" so that the increased resistance will alert you when it's about to pop out.



Dildo Vibrators

Vibrating dildos, dildo vibrators and a multitude of other sensational vibrating sex toys and adult toy products, are basically the same thing but in a number of different configurations. Either way, they all vibrate and are intended to help you reach orgasm and enjoy yourself along the way.

There is no question that Dildo Vibrators are hands down the best sex toys since the ancient Greeks fashioned the first phallic dildos out of wood and stone.

Double Your Pleasure with Dildo Vibrators

Double your pleasure, double your fun, with your favorite Dildo Vibrator.

Forget what they told you growing up. When it comes to Dildos and Vibrators, especially Dildo Vibrators, you simply can't have too much of a good thing. Who said you couldn't spent an entire afternoon experimenting and playing with your favorite pet dildo vibrator.

Vibrator Dildo Combination

The combining of the pleasures of vibration and of penetration make Dildo Vibrator Play a must for the sex toy enthusiast and adult toy novice alike!

If you like the way a vibrator feels and you like the way a dildo feels, you're definately going to like a dildo and vibrator used together. Sometimes your body craves penetration and vibration at the same time. The problem arises when you try to satisfy both desires with just one sex toy.

Dildo Vibrator Satisfaction

Finding satisfaction when using a Vibrating Dildo is more elusive than one might think. Most battery powered sex toy vibrators are phallic in shape. Such phallic design reflects the designers blissful disregard for the fundamentals of both anatomy and sexual response.

The clitoris, the vaginal opening, and the anal opening contain nerve endings that respond favorably to vibration. The rectum and the inner two-thirds of the vagina contain fewer nerve endings, which tend to be more responsive to pressure than to vibration.

What this means is that if you insert a battery vibrator that has vibration concentrated in the head of the vibrator, you're not going to feel the vibrations where you want them. There are many a woman dissatisfied with their sex toy vibrator experience for just this reason. Shoving a typical battery powered sex toy vibrator in and out of the vagina is likely to result in a rather anti-climatic effect.

Best Dildo Vibrator

Not to criticize the excellent selection of Dildo Vibrators on the market today, but some times the Best Dildo Vibrator is simply your best dildo with the right vibrator held against the base of the dildo. This results in the vibrations reverberating throughout the entire pelvic region.

Vibrating Dildo Pleasure

It's true, sometimes the best way to enjoy penetration and vibration at the same time is to use two sex toys at once... one vibrator, one dildo.

Another way to create the same effect, is to place the funnel-shaped attachment on a Coil-operated Vibrator directly against the round base of a dildo. This creates a suction transforming the dildo into a powerful vibrating dildo sex toy.

Yet another way to turn an ordinary battery powered sex toy vibrator into something a little more exotic is to hold a Vibrating Egg Vibrator against the clitoris while playing your vagina and anus with the dildo. You could even try attaching a Vibrating Cock Ring right onto the dildo.

Be creative with your sex toys. It all just makes your sex toy play that much more fun!

Dildo Selection

Your first decision when selecting a dildo is to determine the type of material you want it to be made out of. These days dildo material selection is no-brainer, you want silicone or one of the newer materials that come under the category of Ultra Realistic or UR-3.

Silicone is hypoallergenic and non-porous (meaning you can simply clean it with hot water and anti-bacterial soap or sterilize it by boiling it for five minutes). Silicone feels warm to the touch and retains body heat, it transmits vibration beautifully, can be made into toys that range from floppy to almost completely rigid, and when properly taken care of, your silicone sex buddie can last a lifetime.

In short, silicone is close to the perfect material to make a dildo sex toy, and care for silicone is as easy as not exposing it to anything sharp that could puncture or tear it, and not exposing it to silicone sex lubes that can break it down.

Your second decision when chosing a dildo is selecting a width and length to ideally meet your needs. Of the width and length, the right width is obviously by far the more important. One way to judge the ideal width or thickness of a dildo, is to use your fingers. If you know that having two fingers in you feels just about right, then select a dildo between an inch and an inch and a half in diameter. If three fingers feels better to you then pick something slightly larger than an inch and a half in diameter.

The very best way to get the ideal size dildo to satisfy your needs is to purchase inexpensive non-silicone dildos in a variety of widths, and then once you know the size that suits your occassion you can invest in a quality dildo that is the correct size.

Your third decision when selection a dildo is whether or not you want your dildo to resemble a human penis. Dildos today come in a wide variety of shapes and configurations, some are down right abstract in shape and texture. We recommend you experiment until you find a variety of designs that turn you one.

Your final decision when selecting a dildo is shape. If you enjoy that eye-popping feeling of first being penetrated, then you want a dildo with a slightly pronounced head or knob at the tip. On the other hand, if you like pressure against the forward wall of your vagina, then you will want a dildo with a curve. In general, it's probably simplest to just look at the shape and imagine what it might feel like inside you, and what it might feel like entering you, and then make your choice from there.

Dildo Materials and Lubrication

Whether enjoying dildo sex play with a partner or by yourself, lubrication can be an important consideration when selecting a dildo. You want to be sure the lubrication you use is compatible with the material your dildo is made of. Since some types of lubrication can damage certain dildo materials, it is good to know the basics before you start shopping.

Water Based Sex Toy and Personal Lubricants

Water-based sex lubes are the most common form of sexual lubrication used today. Containing mostly water, water-based lubes will not stain your clothes or sheets, are safe with all sex toys, and can even taste good. Water based personal lubricatns are available in both flavored and non-flavored varieties, are long lasting and easy to clean.

Silicone Based Sex Toy and Personal Lubricants

Basically a modern, high-tech version of water-based sex lube, silicone-based lubes contain all the same ingredients as water-based lubes, except that silicone lubes do not contain any water and are completely waterproof. Silicone based personal sex lubricants also don't dry out like water-based lubes, so tend to last longer.

As mentioned previously in this article, silicone lubricant is safe to use with all sex toys except those made of silicone. If you have a silicone toy, you must use a different type of lubrication.

Oil Based Sex Toy and Personal Lubricants

Consisting of common oils such as vegetable oil, oil-based lubes are not recommended for use with sex toys. Oil-based lubes are OK for masturbation and generally considered safe for consumption, but they often leave an oily residue, can be difficult to wash off your body parts, stain clothing and have been known to cause infection if allowed to stay in the vagina.

Oil-based lubes are not compatible with latex based sex toys, condoms and some latex-based birth control devices.

Petroleum Based Sex Toy and Personal Lubricants

Petroleum-based personal lubes are made with mineral oil or petroleum jelly. Petroleum-based lubes contain primarily petroleum based products, and while they are commonly used for masturbation and anal play, petroleum-based personal lubricants tend to stain sheets and clothing, and are not easy to wash off your body.

Petroleum-based lubes include products such as Vaseline and baby oil, and it is important to know that petroleum will dissolve latex, and should not be used with latex sex toys or adult toy products.
