Sex Toys for Beginners

Maybe you're sexually inexperienced and looking for a way to get to know yourself better. Maybe you've been in a relationship for years and need a way to bring back some of the fun and excitement you felt when you were first dating. Maybe you've just been too shy to think about venturing into an adult store -- the selection can be kind of intimidating if you don't know what you'd like to buy. No matter what your situation, you've come to the right place. The Internet is a great source for sexy playthings. Where else can you can enjoy browsing through a massive selection of toys in the privacy of your own home?

Of course, having an enormous collection at your fingertips won't do you any good if you have no idea where to begin! Rest assured that by the time you finish reading this article, you'll be armed with information and ready to get down to business with some serious shopping.

Toys for Solo Sex Fun

If you're totally new to both sex and sex toys, chances are you would do best to shop for yourself before looking into couples' playthings. After all, once you have the opportunity to get acquainted with your own body, preferences, and intimate pleasures, you can share your newfound carnal knowledge with your lover.

For women, the most commonly chosen starter toy is a basic vibrator. These come in a variety of fun colors, as well as different textures so that you can feel out what suits you best. Explore your body with a traditional, rigid vibe or a softer toy that imitates the penis as closely as possible. Nearly every vibrator comes equipped with multiple speed controls so that you can experience a variety of sensations. Most importantly, they are sized for your comfort. You won't be able to enjoy your experiments if you're overwhelmed by the size of your vibe, nor if you're completely unimpressed! All of the features that go into the makeup of a standard vibrator will help you to discover what works for you and your body

Men, don't feel left out. There are some terrific solo sex toys on the market for you, too. Masturbation toys come in the shape of mouths, vaginas, and anuses so that you can get a feel for all kinds of sexual experiences in the privacy of your own bedroom. Practicing on these toys is not only satisfying for you, it's also a great way to increase your sexual stamina and improve your performance for the benefit of your partner.

Couples' Toys: Double Your Pleasure

If you've long since grown accustomed to your own kinky preferences, now would be a great time to introduce a quality sex toy into your relationship. It can't hurt -- in fact, it can only serve to enhance the intimacy between you and your lover and give you both more intense pleasure in bed.

Set aside an evening (or a whole weekend) to explore new fantasies with your partner. An erotic game like Exploring Ultimate Fantasies can help the two of you discuss, in great detail, the types of scenarios that turn you on. You'll even get a chance to practice on each other with an elaborate tool kit.

Time to Clean Up!

After you've had your fun with your new toys, it's important for you to clean up after yourself. There are a variety of sex toy cleaners on the market that will help keep your collection as happy as it keeps you! It only takes a few moments to keep your favorite things in good condition, keeping you and your lover in good health as well.

You may also want to invest in a set of personal wipes so that you can clean yourself up after sex or after playing with your adult toys. Scented and convenient for travel, unexpected flings, and everyday use, you'll want to have a box of these wipes next to your bed to avoid those uncomfortable and disruptive runs to the bathroom. Wouldn't you rather be snuggling up to your lover instead?

Now that you've had your fun and cleaned up yourself and your toys, you'll be all set to play again tomorrow! Best of all, you'll have the experience necessary to shop for even more fun and exciting things to add to your collection.

Fun with Condoms

Find the Right Fit One of the most important things you can do to make sheathed sex more satisfying is to ensure that the condom you're wearing fits properly. Most products are designed to fit the average penis, but if you happen to be gifted with a larger member, it's worth investing in a bigger raincoat for your not-so-little buddy. A condom that is too small will be difficult to put on, making a frequently awkward moment even more uncomfortable. If you can, experiment with a few different brands and sizes to find one that fits more loosely. This will allow the condom to move up and down over your penis as you thrust, giving you sensations that are as close to skin-on-skin contact as possible. Enhance Your Pleasure with Specialty Condoms In addition to finding the right fit, you can also use specially designed condoms to make your encounter more fulfilling and more fun. For example, a flavored condom can put a delightfully delicious twist on oral sex. Surprise your lover by slipping on a taste of something you know she enjoys, like banana or cola. Her pleasure is sure to translate into your pleasure when she realizes that each luscious lick reminds her of a sweet treat. Glow-in-the-dark condoms also offer a fun alternative to traditional products. Turn your penis into a beacon of light, guiding your lover right to your favorite pleasure zone even on the darkest night. Use your imagination -- hide in a dark room and wait for your partner to find you, or snuggle under the covers with nothing but your glow worm to direct her to your erogenous zone. These types of condoms may be wildly inappropriate if you're planning a serious and romantic evening, but they make a great ice-breaker for new lovers and put a humorous spin on sex between light-hearted partners. Another type of condom designed with fun in mind is the french tickler. With tiny, flexible pieces of latex surrounding the head of the condom, ticklers provide added stimulation for your lover. Unfortunately, these are considered novelty items only, and are not as effective in preventing STDs as traditional condoms. Add-Ons that Make Condoms Fun If specialty condoms don't tickle your fancy, you can always seek out additional enhancements to make your experience with safe sex a more satisfying one. Water-based lubricants can be exceptionally effective, even when using lubricated condoms. Because you're dealing with skin rubbing on latex instead of more skin, it's important to use a generous amount of lube. There's nothing more uncomfortable than sex with a dry condom! You can even experiment with fun and funky types of lubricant to personalize your experience. Choose from a wide array of flavors (great for oral sex), or indulge in anal lubricant for your personal comfort during rear-entry encounters. Cock rings and clitoral stimulators can also be used with condoms. Both of these types of toys can help to enhance the erotic sensations that are weakened when your penis goes undercover. You can find great products that slip down easily over the sheathed penis, maintaining your erection and offering added stimulation for your lover. Vibrating models, as well as rings with attached beads, ticklers, and even tassels are a great way to take the attention off the condom and focus it on all the sensual treats your toys have to offer. The bottom line is that you can make safe sex, fun sex. With the right attitude, and the right toys, you may even find that condoms can be pleasureable!

So You Never Had An Orgasm?

Sex Toys May Be the Answer

Getting to Know Your Sexual Preferences

You can't teach your lover to please you if you're unsure of how to please yourself. Even if your partner manages to give you an orgasm, you'll get far more pleasure out of it if you can recognize the signs that it's coming and prepare yourself to enjoy every second of it. The last thing you want is to be left wondering, "What just happened?"

That's why I recommend investing in an awesome solo sex toy like a rabbit vibrator. Of course, experimenting manually is an excellent start, giving you the opportunity to get to know the intimate parts of your body with nothing other than your fingertips. Unfortunately, if you're hoping to have an orgasm from penetrative sex, you'll need to do better than that. A good vibrator or realistic dildo can help you to determine the most satisfying angles and sexual positions for pleasurable penetration.

Practice, practice, practice! Once you've mastered the art of orgasm all on your own, you'll be able to direct future partners to all your favorite places.

Boosting Your Lover's Performance

Hours and hours of solo sex practice may not be quite enough to achieve the orgasm you want once another person becomes part of the equation. Maybe you've found some terrific pleasure spots on your own, and you're having difficulty getting your partner to find his way there. It's okay to admit that he needs a little assistance -- a good lover is eager to please and will welcome your suggestions, as long as you offer them in a helpful, uncritical manner.

First, figure out what he's missing. If your solo journeys led you to the land of the g-spot, and you're eager to repeat the experience with your lover, a penis extension may be your new best friend. Designed with the exact curve needed to reach your g-spot, these toys can help you enjoy penetration with a partner more than you ever have before. Perhaps you require constant (or at least consistent) clitoral stimulation in order to produce an orgasm. You're not alone! You and your lover might both feel more satisfied once you invest in a targeted vibe for your clit. There are several small, hands-free vibrators that a woman can wear while still enjoying vaginal penetration. You may even discover that simultaneous orgasms aren't as elusive (nor as overrated) as you've heard!

With open lines of communication and the right accessories, the ultimate in sexual satisfaction is yours for the taking!

Extreme Makeover -- Bedroom Edition

Turn Your Room Into a Sexy Sanctuary

Step One: De-Clutter Your Space

If you don't have a laundry hamper, get one. Make sure your clothes land in it every day. Create a separate place (in a separate room) where you can handle your mail, paperwork, and job-related reading. It may be easy to look over things in bed at night, but that's not conducive to sleeping and it's certainly not conducive to sex!

Over the years, you've probably accumulated quite the collection of knick-knacks, photos, and various other things that take up space on your dresser and nightstand. Now's the time to weed them out. Keep only the bare minimum. Pictures of you and your lover enjoying a romantic getaway can stay. Pictures of mom and dad should probably be relocated to another room! A crowded space will only leave you and your partner feeling distracted.

Chances are you have a television and DVD player or VCR in your bedroom. Make sure that your movie collection isn't piled haphazardly on top of the machines. Stack them neatly, and reorganize so that the ones that put you and your guy or girl in a frisky mood are easily accessible. Erotic films can be a fun part of foreplay, and what guy doesn't love having his girlfriend hide her face in his chest during a scary movie, but anything involving Will Ferrell in a speedo should be promptly returned to your living room!

Step Two: Sensual Decorations

Please note that I'm not talking about posters of scantily-clad women or buff men in uniform. When you're decorating for sex, think of things that have a more subtle sensuality about them.

Scented candles can serve two romantic purposes. They'll give you the perfect "mood lighting" for a sexy encounter, and they'll also perfume your bedroom with the pleasant smells of known aphrodisiacs.

Beautifully crafted toys, like glass dildos featuring vibrant colors and unique shapes can also be used sparingly as decorative pieces of art that will enhance the sex appeal of your sanctuary.

If you really want to turn your room into an adult playground, don't forget the swings -- the love swings, of course. These contraptions are terrific for helping you and your lover experiment with adventurous positions and wild sensations. And you don't have to leave yours hanging around all the time. Chances are, simply looking at the cup hook in your ceiling will be enough to start your heart racing.

Step Three: Build a Private Collection of Toys

No matter how you decide to stock your toy drawer, you're sure to have plenty of fun with its contents!

Step Four: Go to Your Room

That's all, folks! Dedicate yourself to keeping your private space neat and playful at all times, and you're sure to enjoy many romantic nights in there. Soon, you'll be having more and better sex, and as an added bonus, you'll even be sleeping more soundly. What more could you want from your very own sexual sanctuary?
