Dildos

What Is a Dildo?

Dildos are typically both solid and phallic shaped making them ideal for penetration and internal stimulation. Suitable for both vaginal and anal play, they are the perfect toy for pleasuring both the G-spot and P-spot. Dildos have been around since the ice age – yes, 28,000 years ago! Today, they are one of the most popular and best selling sex toys.

Whilst most dildos are shaped like an erect penis, there are also many that are not phallic shaped. These are known as non-realistic dildos. There are also vibrating dildos that provide all the usual thrills of such sex toys plus the added excitement of deep rumbling sensations. 

Different Types of Dildos

With so many to choose from here’s a run down of the different varieties you can expect to encounter. 

Realistic Dildos

Realistic dildos are shaped to look and feel exactly like the real deal. They can come with or without balls but will always feature a lifelike shaft and head to replicate the feeling of a real penis. Some will also come with a suction cup. A realistic dildo can be the most familiar option for many people. Relative to other kinds of dildos, some find them to be comforting and unintimidating.

For long-distance partners, a realistic dildo can provide an authentic experience that can be enjoyed whilst sexting – helping to keep the passion alive until they are reunited. These dildos also offer an opportunity to step out of everyday life and into a world of erotic dreams. If you find yourself fantasising about men with big penises, then a realistic large dildo may be just the ticket.

Suction Cup Dildos

Suction cup dildos are perfect for hands-free fun. They eliminate the need to hold and manipulate the toy yourself. So, if you enjoy a hands-free approach when it comes to pleasure, then these are the dildos for you. Because they come with a suction cup, they will stick to most hard and flat surfaces such as the floor, a sturdy door or even your desk. This means you can get really inventive in how you use them!

Squirting Dildos

For an ultra-realistic experience, look no further than squirting dildos. These toys do exactly what you might imagine – they squirt! Realistically styled, squirting dildos feel just like a real penis. And, just like a real penis, they have the ability to ejaculate. This makes them the ultimate dildo if you want the lifelike thrill of real intercourse.

Simply use to the point of orgasm, then squeeze to experience the thrilling sensation of a squirting ejaculation. Some squirting dildos also come equipped with a suction cup which will prevent any unwanted fumbling around at the crucial moment.

Double Ended Dildos

Double ended dildos are typically long, two-headed dildos that are designed to penetrate two orifices at the same time. For couples, these dildos allow for both partners to be penetrated at once. For this reason, they are also a thrilling toy to use during pegging. Alternatively, double ended dildos can be used during solo play for simultaneous vaginal and anal stimulation.

Glass Dildos

The polished surface of glass dildos makes them far smoother than sex toys made of other materials such as latex, rubber and silicone. As such, these dildos provide a delightfully frictionless experience – even during the most passionate of play sessions. Glass dildos are also great for experimenting with temperature. You can cool them down by placing them in cold water or by popping them in the fridge. You can heat them up by placing them in hot water or by running them under a warm tap. A cold dildo will cause the surrounding muscles to contract, increasing the intensity of the resulting sensations and often providing a shudder of pleasure. A warm dildo will encourage the surrounding blood vessels to dilate, resulting in increased blood flow and heightened stimulation.

Willy Moulding Kits

Willy moulding kits, also known as Clone-a-Willy, allow you to create your own unique dildo using a mould of your or your partner’s penis. These easy-to-use kits contain everything you need to turn the penis in your life into a one-of-a-kind sex toy. Perfect as a gift or as a saucy activity to enjoy together, simply follow the included instructions to create a lifelike duplicate of your desired penis.

Anal Dildos

Ideal for lovers of backdoor play, anal dildos grant a back stage pass to bootylicious fun. These dildos are generally smoother and slimmer in girth than other types – making them ideal for anal use. Most anal dildos also have a wide base that sits flush against the body when fully inserted. This prevents them from slipping too far inside the body when in use.

Strap-On Dildos

Designed for couples to use together, strap-on dildos are worn during sex and used to penetrate the desired partner either vaginally or anally. These dildos enable exciting opportunities for all kinds of sexual activities from power play to pegging. Strap-on dildos, just like many other sex toys, come in a huge range of different styles and all have their own unique, sexy tricks.

Alien Dildos

These dildos have stepped straight out of your fantasies and into your bedroom. Both weird and wonderfully designed, alien dildos are worlds apart from the usual sex toys most of us are familiar with. Ultimately, not everyone gets hot under the collar at the sight of a penis. If, however, you get turned on at the thought of extra-terrestrial sex with an alien, then these might well be the dildos of your dreams. After all, if tantalising tentacles or mythical unicorns get you going, then a run-of the-mill phallic dildo just isn’t going to cut it.

Perhaps your fantasies don’t consist of creatures wrapping you in their clutches or whisking you off to planets far away. Maybe you have never desired to be mounted by a monster. Still, if you’re the type of person that likes to try something new, non-realistically styled toys such as these offer exactly that. The textures, materials and different designs of alien dildos are all opportunities to feel something fresh and exciting.

Packing Dildos

Packing dildos, unlike other dildos, are flaccid in appearance and completely flexible. They are designed to be placed into the underwear to give the impression of a pleasing bulge. Packers, as these dildos are otherwise known, are the modern-day equivalent of popping a pair of socks into your pants. They come in a range of different sizes and skin tones to suit everyone.

How to Use a Dildo

If you’ve never used a dildo before, follow the steps below to get to grips with your new toy:

1. Eliminate distractions. Nobody wants to be disturbed during play. If you need to, lock the door and put your phone on silent.
2. Get ready. Make sure everything you need is within easy reach. You’ll want to grab your dildo, plus a bottle of lubricant and toy cleaner if you’ll be using them.
3. Get comfortable. Remove as much or as little clothing as you wish, then get into position. For beginners, we suggest lying down on your back.
4. Relax. In order to accommodate a toy the body needs to be relaxed. This will make it easier to insert the toy.
5. Apply lubricant. Lube can enhance your experience greatly. Apply a generous amount to the dildo itself and a smaller amount to your body.
6. Start slow. When you’re ready, carefully insert the dildo. Allow your body time to adjust and only insert as far as is comfortable.
7. Enjoy the moment. Once inside, manoeuvre the dildo in whatever way feels most pleasurable. Typically, this involves moving the toy in a ‘thrusting’ motion.
8. Experiment. Try different positions to find what feels best. Touching other areas of the body, such as the clitoris and nipples, can heighten sensations.
9. Clean up. Clean up is essential after every play. A sex toy cleaner will make this task a breeze.

Using a Dildo With a Partner

When playing with a dildo as a couple, consider the following ideas:

• If you’re into the thought of a threesome, a dildo can allow you to act out this fantasy without bringing a third person into the bedroom. A suction cup model can provide hands-free penetration, leaving you to interact with your partner’s body in other ways.
• If you’re into the thought of role reversal or power play, a dildo can allow you to explore pegging with your partner. Pegging is a sexual act in which one partner penetrates the anus of the other partner using a strap-on dildo. This allows a couple to experience each other’s bodies in a way that is otherwise not possible.
• Whilst using the dildo, communicate with your partner. Ask what feels good for them and what doesn’t. Try different positions and techniques to find what works best for you both.
