With thousands of sex toy vibrators available it can be a difficult choice choosing the right vibrator for you or your partner. We`ve included a selection of the most popular vibrators in the next section with helpful guidance and tips on how to get the most out of the sex toy vibrator to choose to satisfy your needs.

Classic Vibrators

Classic vibrators can be used in different ways. The most common use is an "in-out" motion to simulate the thrusting of a real cock. However, classic vibrators have many more uses than the straight forward thrusting movement. You need to use your imagination and before too long you will discover the delights that a classic vibrator can provide. Don’t forget also that although classic vibrators are made mainly for women, many men use them with their partner too. Men who use vibrators with their partner can get some wonderful satisfaction if the vibrator is used on the testicles, the anus and the piece of skin at the back of the penis that connects the skin on the shaft to the head. Using a standard classic vibrator externally can often produce more satisfaction than if used internally, so experiment and enjoy what you discover.

Most classic vibrators are usually shaped like a penis and made from soft rubber, jelly or silicone material. Other vibrators are the solid types usually made in hard plastic. Classic vibrators are available in all shapes and sizes, different colours and a variety of materials.

The old cliché of "size matters" is particularly important when choosing a vibrator, too small and the vibration and penetration is not sufficient. Too big can cause pain and discomfort, so when choosing a vibrator consider carefully the size, shape, colour and texture. When considering a standard or classic vibrator decide on what you want it to do, if you prefer internal stimulation and vibration, a vibrator is your best choice, however if clitoral stimulation is needed, a clitoral stimulator might do a better job. First time users, often prefer the simple sleekness of a smooth solid vibrator.

It is a good idea to try experimenting with different sizes and types of vibrator to find out which works best for you. Classic vibrators tend to come from one of the following types:

Realistic Vibrators

These are usually the choice of women who like the realistic look and feel of a real penis. The more realistic a vibrator is, the more sensual and sexy it can make you feel. Most realistic vibrators are veined to add to the realism, many of todays top male pornstars agree to having a copy of their penis made into a vibrator. This gives them lots of extra cash as they receive a royalty for every vibrator modelled on their penis that is sold.

Contoured Vibrators

Normally contoured vibrators have a contoured shape, they look nothing like a realistic penis and more often than not are made in bright colours like purple, red, green, yellow. They are ergonomically designed to fit the contours of the female genitals.

Small Vibrators

These are as the name suggests, small and slimline vibrators. Normally smooth and made of plastic or jelly, small vibrators are basic and although many dont resemble a realistic penis, some small vibrator versions do give out very powerful vibrations so can be used for intense clitoral stimulation and satisfaction. Small vibrators are not a good choice for those who want to feel the thrusting movement of a vibrator inside the vagina, as most are too small and smooth to be effective for stimulating the internal walls of the vagina.

Vibrator Sleeves

You can choose from a number of different vibrator sleeves that will fit over most solid vibrators. Many vibrator kits contain a vibrator together with a number of vibrator sleeves that fit over the vibrator. The sleeves can be made of rubber or jelly and are smooth, ribbed, knobbly or are shaped at the end with bunny ears, the type you see on the rabbit vibrator. Having a sex toy kit with so many different inter changeable vibrator sleeves gives you versatility and allows you to change the sleeve on your vibrator depending on your mood.

G-Spot Vibrators

G spot vibrators are designed specifically to stimulate the G-Spot. The G-Spot is an extremely sensitive part found up inside the vagina, when the g spot is stimulated it can produce the most amazing intense orgasm that many women claim to be the ultimate orgasm. The g-spot is however very difficult to find in most women by using only the fingers, which is why a g-spot vibrator can be very useful in finding that elusive hot spot. These specialised g-spot vibrators have a curved shape tip to help you locate the right spot. The G-Spot needs a great deal of stimulation and during stimulation some slight discomfort can often be felt and sometimes the feeling of wanting to pee occurs, this is quite normal. If you ignore the urge to urinate and the slight discomfort and continue stimulation, the urge and discomfort disappears to be replaced by a very intense pleasurable feeling that leads to a very intense orgasm that is much much stronger than a clitoral orgasm. In some cases the orgasm is so strong, that the women will experience female ejaculation, this is a jet of liquid that shoots out of the vagina. Whilst there is a large number of people who dispute female ejaculation, claiming that it is the women releasing urine from her bladder at the point of orgasm, these doubters have been disproved by the results done in tests that some females can ejaculate a milky looking fluid that is definitely not urine. The further tests carried out also revealed that those women who can have a female ejaculation have one, only because the G-Spot has been stimulated. To experience a G-Spot orgasm and possible ejaculation you need to experiment and be very patient, some women will never experience a g-spot orgasm despite repeated attempts, but the pleasureable intense feeling you experience is well worth trying! Whilst those who can and have experienced a G-Spot orgasm are in the minority, it can be fun trying to find your elusive g spot. A g-spot vibrator will help enormously in your quest.

Clitoral Stimulators

A vibrator of any type can be used as a clitoral stimulator for the clitoris, however, there are many different types of clitoral stimulator available now that are specifically made and uniquely shaped to stimulate the clitoris. These clitoral stimulators are designed specifically to stimulate the clitoris. When deciding on which type of clitoral vibrator or stimulator is right for you, consider the following vibrators for clitoris stimulation:

Bullet Vibrators

Bullet vibrators are worth consideration as a bullet vibrator can be held in the hand and moved around the clitoris quite easy. There are many different types of bullet vibrators, long, short, slim, fat and coloured bullet vibrators, so it becomes a matter of personal choice. Depending on how much clitoris stimulation, if you prefer light stimulation then choose a bullet vibrator in jelly as this provides softer vibrations for the more tender clitoris. If you like or need stronger vibration because your clitoris needs more stimulation then choose a solid plastic type bullet vibrator as these produce more intense vibration direct to the clitoris.

Rabbit Vibrators

The most popular selling sex toy for the last few years and this is not surprising because what the rabbit does is just incredible. There are now over one hundred different types of rabbit vibrator, from the basic rabbit that vibrates and has rotating beads in the shaft through to the sophisticated models that twirl, have rotating head, bend at the tip, oscillate, vibrate and escalate! When you consider buying a rabbit vibrator, you need to ask yourself what type of stimulation you enjoy. Do you enjoy simultaneous stimulation whereby your vagina, clitoris and g spot all get stimulated at once? If the answer is yes, then a rabbit is for you. You need then to consider how much stimulation you want, if you want plenty, then choose a more sophisticated model that oscillates, the extra cost on these models is well worth the money.

Butterfly Vibrators

These are generally hands free vibrators that strap-on around your hips and cover your vaginal area. The advantage of these is that you have both hands free for other things. The vibrations produced by the range of butterfly type vibrators can be very strong and the vibrations produced tend to be very direct on the clitoris, as opposed to the vaginal area. These vibrators are not for every women, some find them too intense or a little uncomfortable to wear, so bear this in mind before you choose. There are models available now that are remote control, whereby you wear the butterfly out in public and your partner can turn your butterfly on at the flick of a switch!

Anal Sex Toys

The thought of an anal sex toy to some people is a real turn off, however, the increasing popularity of anal sex toys shows that more and more people are turning to anal sex toys for anal pleasure. From our own research, those who hold this view appear to be in the minority. Sales of all types of anal sex toys including anal dildos, beads, vibrators and other anal sex toys have rocketed in past years. The reasons for this are no doubt various, but one factor has to be that as a society we are now more liberal in our approach to sex and our previous inhibitions are no longer there. Another reason probably is that because more couples are prepared to experiment nowadays than many years ago, their sexual play, including anal play is helping more men and women to discover that playing around the anus does provide very pleasureable feelings of satisfaction.

Anal Sex Toy Safety

Anal sex toys play can be extremely pleasurable mainly because the anus has very delicate nerve endings and when stimulated the pleasure can be far greater than the excitement and satisfaction experienced from vaginal penetration alone. There are however some very important things to consider before and during any type of anal play with sex toys. The first thing is that because the anus is very delicate and has a very thin lining throughout the anal passage, anything that is inserted must be clean, smooth and lubricated. It must also be remembered that the anus leads to the bowel, the bowel is an area that can hold large items, therefore you should never insert anything that is likely to get sucked into it, some people have ignored this advice and ended up in casualty with some very embarrassing explaining to do! We recommend that you should only ever use anal sex toys that are made specifically for anal use, anal sex toys have safety features built in, like expanded bases on vibrators, dildos and butt plugs. The large bases are there for a reason to stop the item during the height of sexual pleasure from being sucked into the anus.

Anal Sex Toy Lubrication

Another important factor concerning anal sex toy play is you need to be relaxed, the anal sphincter is naturally tight for obvious reasons, therefore anything that penetrates the opening causes the sphincter to tighten up which if you are not relaxed can make anal insertion painful or uncomfortable. Once you are relaxed, the next thing is plenty of anal lubrication. The anal passage unlike the vagina does not produce natural fluid, so lubrication is essential. Never ever use any type of force when inserting an anal sex toy, take it slowly, gently and carefully, if it’s difficult to insert it is probably because your partner is not relaxed enough or there is too little lubrication.

It is not recommended to use any sex toy for anal use in the vagina, the anus has bacteria that is harmless in the anus but can cause problems if this bacteria is transferred into the vagina, from say an anal sex toy or fingers.

The final thing to remember is communication. If you or your partner at anytime during anal play or insertion says no or stop, you should stop immediately no excuses. If you have never experienced anal play, you could be missing out on a delightful experience because the pleasure that can be had is hard to describe, provided you and your partner are relaxed and careful. Those who are concerned that putting something into the anus will cause them to lose their bowel control should not worry, the anus will always revert back to normal, provided that any anal play is gentle and care is taken.
