What Are Dildos?

Dildos are sex toys designed to mimic the shape and feel of a penis. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes, materials, and colours to cater to a wide range of preferences and desires. Unlike vibrators, which rely on mechanical stimulation, dildos traditionally focus on the sensation of fullness and the physical movement of penetration.

Types of Dildos

1. Classic Dildos.

These are straightforward, phallic-shaped dildos designed to mimic the look and feel of an erect penis. They often feature realistic details such as veins and a pronounced head.

The popular Teddy Bear Vibrator is the perfect example. This fabulous sex toy has the added bonus of vibration and is super flexible.  

 

 

 

2. G-Spot Dildos.

These are curved or angled to specifically target the G-spot. The design allows for easier and more direct stimulation of this sensitive area.

3. Double-Ended Dildos.

Perfect for partner play, these dildos have two ends, allowing both partners to enjoy simultaneous penetration.

4. Strap-On Dildos

These are designed to be used with a harness, allowing one partner to penetrate the other. They’re great for role reversal and adding variety to partner play.

5. Textured Dildos

These feature various textures such as ridges, bumps, or spirals, providing extra stimulation during use.

6. Realistic Dildos

Made to closely resemble an actual penis, often including details like skin texture, veins, and even testicles. They've really nailed the details on this one - from the skin texture to the veins, we've got it all!

Materials

Silicone - The gold standard for sex toys. Silicone, the superhero of sex toy materials, is body-safe, hypoallergenic, and super easy to clean. Plus, it's as flexible as a yoga instructor and comes in more textures and firmness levels than a fancy cheese platter.

Glass- Elegant and firm, glass dildos are non-porous and easy to clean. They can be heated or cooled for temperature play. Who knew glass dildos could be so versatile?  

Metal - Offering a weighty feel and sleek look, metal dildos are great for temperature play and provide a unique sensation due to their firmness.

Jelly/Rubber - These are softer and more flexible but can sometimes contain harmful chemicals. Always check for body-safe, phthalate-free options.

Wood - Treated, body-safe wooden dildos offer a natural and eco-friendly option, often finished with a smooth, non-porous coating.
