I want to know what sex toys, if any, you use / have used / enjoy. Just pure curiousity and boredom, mostly. I'll tell you if you tell me! :)

Are there specific toys that are an "every time" type, while others you only enjoy occasionally? What toy did you buy / receive and end up hating?

Cockrings! Metal are best. Not only are they visually imposing, they make everything else imposing too. Best of all, you can buy them at the hardware store for next to nothing!

I was going to answer none, but I'm not sure what makes a sex toy. If cuffs are allowed, I've used leather cuffs and really really enjoyed them. Also used some paddles and stuff for SM fun.

I left it vague so that you could define it yourself. I'd certainly include cuffs in the category.

Try'em if you haven't. Gives you a reason to let your partner be in total control.

They're on the one of these days list, actually.

Oh my.

Well, um.

Yeah.

I have three toys, and all are pretty much used with a partner. Ahem.

One is the Aneros Male G-spot stimulator. Having been blessed with a prostate sensitive to direct stimulation, this was a toy I was most curious about. It more or less performs as advertised, and is rather comfortable, given that it is not huge and anatomically designed. This I have used alone and with Josh.

Basically, it uses the anal sphincter muscles to drive the massage, which causes a firmer erection, and of course, can be done hands-free. Josh is very curious about inserting it himself, because I imagine that it could create a unique sensation during anal intercourse for the top.

The second toy I have is just your basic prostate vibrator. Josh likes to play with this on me. I have also just let it rest against the underside of my penis while vibrating, and in about 4-5 minutes, I orgasm.

The third toy, which I can't find the link to, has been a mixed blessing. It is a large butt plug that is anatomically designed to press against the prostate while vibrating, while filling the lower rectum. It takes me a long time to get it in, and the last time I tried, I just couldn't. Given Josh's advanced endowment, it worked well as a way to dilate me a bit to help me accept him, but now, he's just gotta go slow and take his time. When I first saw it, I thought no way Jose, but with some work, it eventually made it in. Now I can't even entertain the thought.

When I did manage to insert it in (and it is shaped, so once you pass the sphincter muscles with the thickest part, it is where it needs to be), the vibrator literally robbed me of the power of speech. Handing the remote over to your partner can be dangerous indeed. The package states that you should not leave it inserted for longer than 30 minutes, tho it doesn't say why.

In the past, I have used anal beads (which were FUN), a 14" dildo (not so fun, and can be dangerous), cockrings (I prefer leather to metal, because I'm thick, and I'm always afraid I am going to be trapped in the thing), and various items for use on the scrotum and testicles. I have large balls (again, mixed blessing), so I tend not to do too much with them, because they are very sensitive, but I have used a ball separator, which is essentially a leather strap that divides the scrotum, and connects to the leather cockring. I didn't use it a lot, because it wasn't always comfortable.

The problem with cock-n-ball toys is that if you don't plan for them ahead of time, you tend not to be able to use them once you are in the middle of the rendezvous. And you might put one on, expecting to be able to give it a shot, and find out your partner is not in the mood.

I don't mind if you unscreen this - I actually wish more of us could talk these things out clinically and relaxed, rather than being faced with some toy with bells and whistles and not know what it is supposed to do, or how best to use it.

Thanks, very helpful! Unscreened, as suggested. More communication is definitely a good thing, I agree.

Woo, now that I work in a store that sells'em...

Heh, as you know, I now work at a store called Out On The Street in Toronto. In the basement, we sell all sorts of fun and interesting toys. Also, my boyfriend, Caleb, is rather kinky, and we have a little bag of tricks next to the bed that we keep around to spice things up. They're rather fun in D/s scenes, etc...

We have various cuffs, collars, etc... some standard light bondage stuff, but we also have a few interesting little items.

The parachute ball stretcher is a fun little toy, and despite it's rather wicked looks, doesn't hurt at all, unless you're an unusually high hanger. It can be weighted for a light tugging sensation, and feels nice while you're just going solo.

One that we got that we don't use all that often because a) it's hard to get on, and b) it can be painful if applied incorrectly is the humbler. This is an interesting little toy. It essentially goes around your balls (the parachute really helps in applying this toy), and hooks around the back of your thighs so you can't stand up or lie prone. Keeps someone (usually me) on hands and knees. It looks painful, but it only hurts if you try to do something you shouldn't be doing ;).

Last, but not least, in order to complement the medium black Doc Johnson plug, is the goofily named Deluxe Wonder Plug. It's inflatable, and has a variable speed vibrator, and is very pleasant indeed.

Usually, I put a condom on the toys (since I can get them at cost), in order to make cleanup a lot easier. It's also a great way to be able to use my lube of choice, no matter what the material of the toy is. Remember, kiddies, never use silicone lube with silicone toys, since you can ruin the toy. Same goes for oil-based lubes and rubber toys or latex condoms. No no no. Vinyl toys are safe with any kind of lube. I prefer Wet Platinum(silicone based) myself. It's just about the same as Eros (I think it's better, personally), and 1/2 or 1/3 of the price.

Of course, at work we have some rather silly-sized toys. Silly to me at least... but I have no idea where you'd possibly find room to fit these...

And don't get me started with the stuff at www.squarepegtoys.com. That's just crazy talk!

Holy schnootz. Nothing shocking there, except that I haven't really remained in touch with you over the past nine years! Culture shock. :)

*grin* Feel free to unblock my post, as well. I don't mind. I forgot the niftiest device that Caleb and I picked up. Actually, I got it as a surprise for him (although I'm the one that wears it, being the s in the D/s scenes we do...) It's the CB-2000 chastity device. It's really interesting, and designed for long-term wear. The longest I've worn it for is 3 weeks, and it does make one somewhat needy by that point *grin*. Prevents you from getting fully hard or touching yourself. We're hoping to upgrade to the better designed Curve device, but they're 'spensive, so I'll have to wait to upgrade.

*grin* Yeah, I can understand the culture shock comment. Damn, boy... we need to get together for a cosmo sometime soon!

'tis true! I know another person interested in the CBx000 line. I wonder if I'd be allowed to deny myself for long enough for that... :)

1" buttplug, not always, but sometimes, usually on the other person involved. Just enough to hit the prostate but not stretch anything too much.

[x-23.livejournal.com]

I've only ever tried anal beads which I recieved as a gift from my ex. I've used them a few times and have really enjoyed them. I've never used them with a partner but I do like them on my own.

You can post my 'livejournal' name. It's all good.

I'll keep your secrets, stud.

[c9.livejournal.com]

Surprised at your choice? No. Surprised that you commented? No. Surprised that a girl answered? Kinda. :)

[c9.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. Well, I'd certainly be surprised to have a male friend own that -- oddly, even the girliest guys I know have very butch sex toys. I know you want me to be surprised, but I'm not. Not sure why. :)
