Australia you’ve been missing out, In today's sex toy world there are so many vibrators, how do you decide which sex toy is best for you?
Well it all depends what sex toy you're after. Is it a quick orgasm or perhaps an extended sensual sex session either on your own (with your sex toy) or with your lover?
Whatever your choice, vibrators are the ideal sex accessory to get your motor revving & send your sex drive racing to a 100 mile per hour orgasm. But how do you choose that orgasm inspiring vibrator?
In this "How to Choose a Vibrator for You" section we'll try to help you make that decision by running through the main types of vibrators available on the sex toy market today.
Vibrators come in a wide variety of types and sizes, so here's a quick look at sex toy world of vibrators.
The standard vibrators are battery powered, phallic shaped and made of plastic, metal, silicone or a similar material. These sex toys can either be stroked or held against the genitals or inserted. In the early days these vibrators were advertised on the back of newspapers and magazines as "facial massagers".
These days, standard vibrators come in a multitude of colours & sizes. Some vibrators are waterproof & can be taken into the bath or shower. Check out our range of I rub my Duckies”while other vibrators are illuminated so that you can see what you're doing with your vibrator, even in the dark.
When standard vibrators first appeared on the sex toy market they all had a smooth finish but nowadays as more & more research and development is carried out into vibrators & sex toys in general it has been found that some vibrator users prefer nodules on their vibrator or veined vibrators or twisted vibrators and the list goes on. Some of the more popular vibrators today incorporate the vibrator into a more realistically detailed dong made of rubber, vinyl, or silicone. With some vibrators users believe that because the vibrator actually looks like a real penis heightened orgasms can be achieved.
"Trying out new vibrators and learning which vibrator is best for you can only be a pleasurable experience"
Our advice to you is if you have never used a vibrator before, is to start off with a basic clt stim model like a pocket rocket and progress from there. Trying out new vibrators & learning which vibrator is best for you can only be a pleasurable experience and before you know it you'll be using top of the range vibrator models such as an Ivibe.
Rabbit Vibrators
Most of us will have seen a Rabbit vibrator on TV on various late night chat shows or more mainstream programs such as Sex in the City. Rabbit vibrators are the most popular vibrators in use today & outsell other types of vibrator by nearly 3-1. Is this down to clever sex toy marketing and good sex toy product placement or do they actually work? Research has shown YES for the vast majority of vibrator users.
Ok so what's so special about a Rabbit Vibrator. Well firstly, when using rabbit vibrator it is an accumulation of sensations that bring you to orgasm not just a vibration as with standard vibrators. Most rabbit vibrators have rotating pearl beads that stimulate the vaginal walls and also a "Rabbit" shaped vibrating bullet that stimulates the clitoris.
Why are they called Rabbit vibrators?
They are called rabbit vibrators because with original Japanese vibrator models the clitoris stimulator was designed to represent a "Rabbit". In Japan vibrators cannot be produced in true life because of legal issues. On later vibrator models the "Rabbit shaped stimulator" has been replaced with dolphins, beavers, ladybirds and any other form of animal you wish to imagine but their purpose never changes. Stimulation is their game.
"There's endless combinations of pleasure to be had"
Deluxe models of Rabbit Vibrators such as the I-Vibe feature a rotating penis head. Some Rabbit Vibrators come with an anal tickler in addition to a Rabbit. Although these vibrator models are more expensive, at the end of the day you get what you pay for: they are generally well made sex toys that will bring you the ultimate vibrator experience.
We are seeing Rabbit Vibrators with G spot massaging shapes along with vibration position for your G spot. We have a number of variations on our site.
Top Vibrator Tips
1. Test out your vibrator. Test the vibrator on other body parts such as thighs, buttocks & breasts. That way you can learn about your vibrator, its intensity, parts and speed settings, before you get down to business.
2. Try experimenting with your vibrator. Experiment with vibrator positioning to get the best vibrator sensations, going straight for the clitoris may not work the best for you. More indirect vibrator stimulation may be more pleasurable.
3. Vary the pressure of your vibrator and the speed of your vibrator if your vibrator permits. Try using the vibrator on the outside of clothing or through layers if it's too intense.
4. Use pjur lubricant with your vibrator. Water-based sexual lubrication such as pjur Aquacan reduce friction and intensify sensations whether you're inserting the vibrator or just stroking your clitoris.
5. Don't be shocked by your vibrator. If you plan to use your vibrator in the bath, be sure to get a waterproof vibrator model such as the Ivibe Rabbit. Do not use electrical vibrators near water.
6. Keep your vibrator clean. Clean your vibrator regularly with sex toy cleaners such as med wipe toy cleaner. Remove all batteries from your vibrator during cleaning and don't get fluid into the vibrator battery compartment.
7. Vibrators just for men. Men can enjoy vibrators too. Many men find a vibrator on their penis shaft or on the underside of the penis head to be very pleasurable. Try using your vibrator on the base of the balls also.
8. Take a break from your vibrator. If a vibrator runs too long, the vibrator motor can overheat, causing vibrator breakdowns. Take an occasional break from your vibrator to let yourself and the vibrator cool off.
9. Spend quality time with your vibrator. Vibrators offer easy and almost instant gratification, but don't cheat yourself and get off quickly every time with your vibrator. Take some time to explore the many pleasures your vibrator can offer.
10. Vary your sexual diet as well as your sex toys and sex accessories.
Bullet & Egg Vibrators
Bullet or Egg vibrators (Clit Stim)are small vibrators encased in an egg or bullet-shaped capsule. Bullet vibrators have become extremely popular, both because of their powerful vibrations & their size. Bullet vibrators can be used directly on the clitoris, inserted in the vagina, or used with other sex toys that incorporate them such as the our cockrings Many dildos, anal plugs and penis rings are designed to incorporate one of these mighty vibrators within their design or you can just buy them as they come. In most cases the bullet is attached via a small cord to a handheld battery pack/controller. However more & more wireless or remote bullet versions are now flooding the market and these are proving to be exceptionally popular especially with couples as your partner can literally turn you off & on via the remote control.
Wands.
The highest selling sex toy in the US is called the Hitachi Magic Wand. We at Aphrodites Toy Box swear by these. Also great for muscular aches and pains but fantastic for getting making your come. It has a very powerful head which can have attachments added to it for some fantastic addition stimulation. The trinity Wand is similar to the hitachi with the additional benefits of 7 speeds versus 2 on the Hitachi.
Sex toy Myths and Facts
Myth: Sex toys are only for people who have a bad sex life, or no sex life:
Sex Toy Fact:Everyone and anyone you can image is the kind of person who uses sex toys. In fact research on sex toy usage suggests that people who are having sex, use sex toys more than those who aren’t, and that between 20-30% of people have used sex toys at least once in their lives. Sex toys aren’t a crutch or a cure-all, they are an addition to sexual repertoire.
Myth: Sex toys are addictive:
Sex Toy Fact:Addiction implies harm, and there is nothing harmful about using sex toys (as long as they’re used properly). It’s true that people can become used to using sex toys, and even come to rely on them, but there is no “withdrawal” and anyone can easily get themselves back to masturbation or partner sex without sex toys. People who suggest that vibrator addiction is real tend to be people who think that any sex toy use is too much sex toy use.
Myth: If a woman has a sex toy, she won’t need a man:
Sex Toy Fact:Sex toys are not replacements for people. A sex toy won’t make you breakfast, or cuddle, or tell you how much it loves you. Many men are intimidated by sex toys because they have been raised with the idea that the most important thing about them is what’s between their legs. These myths about male sexuality sink in early, and as a result most men are insecure about their sexual importance. Also, let’s remember that there are lots of women who don’t want a man in the first place, and a sex toy isn’t going to change that one way or the other.
Myth: Guys only use sex toys because they can’t get any “real” sex:
Sex Toy Fact:The cliché about men and sex toys is the guy in the raincoat, buying the “masturbator” and watching porn in his basement while masturbating. The reality about men and sex toys is that millions of them use them, in one study it was 21% of respondents, both when they are in relationships and single. The best way for a man to become a better lover is to learn more about his own sexual response. Masturbation, with or without sex toys, is the key to this, and to learning to control ejaculation. Using sex toys doesn’t mean a man is a loser, it means he’s smart, and likely to be better in bed for it.
Myth: Sex toys make sex less natural:
Sex Toy Fact:Most of us are raised being told many lies about sex, among them that “natural sex” means one thing only. Is drawing less “natural” when we use a pencil and paper? Is painting more “natural” if we use our own blood, rather than paints? Of course not. Yet sex is somehow less “natural” if we use tools and toys to make it different. Sex toys are animated not by batteries but by our imaginations, and using sex toys is as natural as the people using them.
Myth: There are bad sex toys and good sex toys:
Sex Toy Fact:With the exception of a few sex toys that pose obvious risks, there is no such thing as a “good” or “bad” sex toy. Sex toys are whatever we do with them. A vibrator that would be too strong, too heavy, and painful for one person might be perfect for another. A dildo that feels sticky and looks weird to one, might be the ideal shape, size and texture for another. The trick is to find the sex toy thats right for you but most sex toys will be good for some people, and bad for others.
Myth: The more you pay for a sex toy, the better it is:
Sex Toy Fact:A $6 vibrator might give you more pleasure than a $300 vibrator. More expensive sex toys should last longer, be made of better materials, and maybe come from smaller, more ethically run companies, but they won’t necessarily feel better or give you more pleasure. Sex toys are like most other commercial products in that the budget ones will do the trick, and more often than not, that’s all we’re looking for.
Myth: Sex toys are kinky:
Fact:Words like “kinky” and “normal” are completely relative and while they may govern what you feel comfortable talking about (or doing) in public, the sooner you realize that everyone is “kinky” behind closed doors, the happier and less stressful your sex life will be. Sex toys don’t make sex kinky, and using them doesn’t “say” anything about the kind of person you are, other than the fact that you’re the kind of person who feels worthy of sexual pleasure. Which is a highly respectable reputation to have in any social circle.
Myth: Sex toys can cause damage to your body:
Sex Toy Fact:Those people who would rather us not use sex toys at all come up with a variety of arguments for why they are bad. They’re addictive, their weird, and if you use them you can ruin yourself for “real sex”. For starters, “real sex” is any kind of sex you’re having or thinking about having. Also, there is no evidence whatsoever that sex toys can damage or harm your sexual sensitivity or genitalia. Of course you could always poke out an eye if you don’t use your sex toy properly, but the same is true of your can opener, and no one’s telling you to throw that away.
