Types of Dildos: Traditional Dildos
A traditional dildo
is shaped like a phallus, which means it vaguely
resembles a penis. Some can be quite realistic, especially if they're made from
silicone. Others look nothing like the male member. They come in all sizes,
shapes, textures and colors, from the smallest insertable to the (laughably)
huge twelve-inch dildo. However, they all have one thing in common: they were
made for thrusting.
When considering a traditional dildo, think about what you want. Some people
prefer the simple sleekness of a smooth jelly dong. Others enjoy a more realistic
shape and texture. Some people like small traditional dildos and others like
obscenely large ones. It's really up to you. You might try experimenting with
different vegetables to determine what size works best for you. When you find a
veggie that fits just right, hunt for a traditional dildo of approximate size
and shape. If you're not comfortable with the vegetarian approach, you may have
to let trial and error determine your acceptable girth. As for texture, stroke a
few floor models if you're shopping live. Pick the material that appeals to you
most. If you don't find it potentially erotic, it's a colossal waste of time.
Traditional dildos are available in a variety of different styles, most of which
can be categorized into the following groups:
- Realistic Dildos
Realistic dildos look just like the
real thing -- in fact, they're often cast from molds created from real penises.
Like all sex toys, realistic dildos come in a variety of sizes, shapes, textures
and skin tones, ranging from a healthy six inches to a whopping foot and a half.
Most realistic dildos are made from
silicone, jelly or rubber
-- textures that closely resemble human skin. Many realistic dildos have
testicles, veins and other natural anomalies. Increasingly popular are those
cast from famous penises -- those belonging to popular adult film stars! Some
people really enjoy the heft and natural look of these toys; others are a bit
intimidated by these members.
- Smooth Dildos
Similar to slimline vibrators, these
dildos are smooth, sleek and seamless, usually constructed of silicone, jelly or
translucent rubber. These toys are relatively uncommon; the lack of friction
makes them undesirable for many people. However, like all sex toys, they have
their devotees: some people swear the smooth ride is delectable.
- G-Spot Dildos
G-Spot dildos come in two basic shapes:
long, smooth shafts with a tilted tip, and stubby, knobby thick shafts with wide
midsections. Whichever your preference, both function in relatively the same way
-- they're designed to hit a woman's G-Spot, that elusive area about three
inches into the vaginal canal. Women point the knobby or tilted end upward,
toward the magical spot, and apply pressure. This type of dildo isn't particularly
appealing to women who don't enjoy G-Spot stimulation, but those who do say
G-Spot dildos are incredible. If you aren't sure about your tastes, try one out.
You might really like it. If you're interested in finding out if G-Spot stimulation
is for you, these dildos are a good way to begin play. Use lots of lube and
remember that most women respond to firm G-Spot pressure, not gentle stroking.
These types of dildos are also great for stimulating the prostate.
- "Other" Dildos For whatever reason, some people prefer that their
sex toys resemble anything but a penis. We've seen silicone, jelly and rubber
vegetables, dolphins, mysterious wand-like creations, space-age designs with
little dangly things hanging off the end -- we don't question anything! If a
particular dildo exists, as weird as it may look, it must have a market. Keep an
open mind and give it a try.
Some women prefer traditional dildos because using them seems more like traditional
intercourse, but offer more control. In fact, some men have been known to become
jealous of their partner's buddy -- why would any woman with an always-erect
penis at her disposal want a big, messy man around the house? Never fear, guys.
A traditional dildo can provide crashing orgasms, but it can't provide the
intimacy and touch that you can..
Double-Ended Dildos
These party toys are meant for two; a
double dildo
is nothing more than two
realistic dildos joined at the base -- with a little extra wiggle room. Any
hetero- or homosexual combination can make good use of a double dildo (or
"double dong," as they're sometimes called): man and man, man and woman, and
woman and woman. Usually not a great choice for newbies (these dildos can appear
alarmingly large), double dildos can make a tasteful addition to the true
connoisseur's treasure chest.
