Let's talk about sex toys. When you think of sex toys, you might think of vibrators, dildos, and other devices that a person can use to enhance their solo sexual experience. When it comes to sex toys for a party of two, vibrators and dildos are still staple items, but you might also think of handcuffs, blindfolds, or sex swings. Truth be told, there's a huge variety of sex toys for couples out there that you might not be aware of. The best thing about using a toy in the bedroom with a partner is that it's double the pleasure!
If you're hesitant to experiment with sex toys, Claire Cavanah, co-founder of Babeland and co-author of Moregasm: Babeland's Guide to Mind-Blowing Sex has some encouraging words. "Sex toys allow us to stimulate more than one sensitive spot at the same time," Cavanah told Elite Daily. "They let us experiment with sensation and different types of stimulation. They enhance our capability to bring a lover or ourselves to a mind-blowing orgasm. Sex toys free us, bring out the best in us, and I think they can make the world a more passionate and peaceful place."
Most sex toys for couples are typically focused on clitoral stimulation, and for good reason — 72 percent of women require or prefer having their clitoris touched to achieve orgasm. Since most sex toys focus on that kind of stimulation, the penis is largely underserved, and so, those partners could be a little less psyched about bringing a toy into the bedroom. Read on to discover a few great sex toys that couples can actually share, and remember: Sharing is caring!
While bringing toys into the bedroom with your partner might be intimidating, it could also be a great way to build intimacy, discover new ways to expand your sexual repertoire, and — at the very least — spice up date night. Happy shopping!
