When it comes to sex toys for women, it’s certainly not a one size fits all scenario. We’re all made differently - from our bodies to our preferences, we’re all diverse and unique. In this week’s blog, the experts at Little Miss Vanilla discuss how to choose the right sex toy for you and the many different types there are.
Understanding Your Body
Whether you plan to use your toys alone or with a partner, it’s fundamental to explore what turns you on first. What works for a friend, may not work for you and there’s only one way to find out what you like, and that’s experimentation!
When it comes to orgasm, only a small percentage of women actually climax through penetrative methods alone. Sex toys for women aren’t just dildos and vibrators, there’s a wealth of options that pleasure in other ways. Some of these include clitoral stimulation, G-spot pleasure, gentle vibrations and intense pulsations for your outer and inner lips. By taking the time to explore your desires and anatomy, you can narrow down the options and select toys that cater to your specific needs.
Size, Shape and Material
Choosing the correct size, shape and material play a crucial role in ensuring both comfort and satisfaction during intimate time:
Size: Opt for something that feels comfortable and pleasurable for you. Whether you prefer something petite and discreet or larger and longer, there's a size to suit every preference. Our advice would be to start small and work your way up. As we always say, it’s never ‘one size fits all’ - go with what feels most pleasurable for you!
Shape: The shape of each toy is slightly different, but you will find a few that perfectly align with your anatomy. Curved toys are ideal for G-spot stimulation, while ergonomic designs ensure ease of use and manoeuvrability. With massagers, the shape doesn’t matter so much.
Material: The material of sex toys can impact sensation, but also safety and hygiene. Always use body-safe materials such as silicone, glass, and stainless steel which are non-porous and easy to clean, making them ideal choices for women during intimate play. Many women starting their sex toy journey choose silicone-based toys to begin with because of their buttery softness.
Experimenting and Exploring
Take your time when it comes to finding what you like. There’s no rush and the only real way to find the perfect sex toy for you is through exploration. Don’t feel any pressure to hurry the process. Likewise, don’t be afraid to try new things and step out of your comfort zone a little. If something intrigues you, experiment! Whether you're solo or partnered, communication is key to discovering what works best for you and your body. Keep those lines of communication with your partner and yourself open. The only way to make this work is by being open-minded and honest.
