Vibrator? or Dildo?

So what is the difference between a dildo and a vibrator ? They're often confused. A battery-or electric-powered toy that vibrates is generally called a "vibrator" whether it is meant for insertion or external stimulation. "Dildos" are toys designed for either vaginal or anal insertion that do not vibrate. Dildos create a sensation of internal fullness and pressure that many find simply delightful. As is with all rules there are exceptions. Some dildos vibrate, hence the easy-to-remember term, "vibrating dildo " or "twice as nice".

When you're shopping for a toy, remember this: If you're looking for clitoral stimulation first and foremost, you probably want a vibrator. If it is penetration you crave. Opt for a dildo. For the best of both worlds, choose the vibrating dildo just make sure that the vibrations are enough to get you off and that the toy is the size you want for penetration. Many women have found that it is using a combination of a dildo and vibrator that brings them the most satisfaction.

OK, now that I know the difference between a vibrator and a dildo how do I go about determining what is best for me? There are thousands of sex toys on the market today. While this is very exciting it is also overwhelming even for the most seasoned sex toy purchaser.

First step is determining how you best reach orgasm. While the majority of women reach orgasm though clitoral stimulation, there are those that reach orgasm through penetration. In addition to this, some like their stimulation to be on the softer side while others require an extremely strong vibration. It is important to remember that there is no right or wrong to this, it is what works best for your own personal enjoyment.

Next - wading through all the choices. Electric or Battery? Vaginal - Clitoral - Anal? Coil-operated - Wand - Swedish - Rechargeable - Variable Speed - Hands free ? Twice as nice (Vaginal Vibrator with Clitoral stimulator) - Remote control - Waterproof - Vibrating eggs - Bullets . Not to mention material, Silicone - Glass - Jelly - Acrylic - Technoskin? As you can see there is a lot to choose from. Again it comes down to your personal preferences. Do you like something a little more pliable and giving with penetration? If so silicone and jelly are very nice for this. The silicone will hold heat and can be sterilized. If you like a silky smooth slippery feeling then glass or acrylic would be the best choice. Both the glass and acrylic are non-pours allowing them to stay silk smooth and slick for long periods of time. One thing to remember about glass and acrylic is that since there is no give to the surface of these toys they will feel larger than a toy of the same size made of silicone or jelly.

If you are not already familiar with your preferences we find that masturbation offers a wealth of self information, i.e. How firm of clitoral stimulation to how big or small you like your insertable toys.
