A bedroom toy used by men for masturbation or during partner sex. May be in the form of a masturbation sleeve (a hollow, cylindrical device into which the penis is inserted and stimulated by texturizing inside the sleeve and/or vibration; can be made of any material, but is usually silicone, jelly or a realistic material such as Cyberskin TM), a vacuum pump (generally presented as enlargers, but only very temporarily do any enlarging; most basic models are a clear plastic cylinder with a rubber-lined opening in which to insert the penis and have a hand-held rubber pump that creates the vacuum, others have textured sleeves inside, vibration or suction), a tickler (a thin latex or silicone sleeve that has ridges or nodules or other protrusions made to be rolled on the penis like a condom and supposedly for the partner's pleasure) or an erection ring (a silicone, jelly or rubber ring that goes on the penis; some vibrate or have a clitoral stimulator that vibrates for partner sex). May also apply to any vibrator when used to stimulate the penis or testicles.
HOW TO CHOOSE A MALE TOY
We know selecting a male toy can be a daunting experience. Fortunately, if you answer three simple questions, it's easy!Results: What do you want this toy to do to you (or him)? Are you looking for something to provide texture and sensation when masturbating? Then a sleeve is ideal, although a pump might also work. Something to temporarily enlarge the penis or increase erection stamina? Pumps or erection rings are ideal. Something for him to use with his partner? A vibrating erection ring is the answer. Does he have erectile dysfunction? If so, you'll want to consider an extender, erection ring or harness. Is he into anal play? Try an anal plug, dildo or vibrator. For the best results, select an anal toy that's curved to stimulate his prostate. Materials: What do you want this toy to feel like? The popular materials for male products are silicone and other realistic materials, like CyberskinTM, Futurotic and Soft Touch. Consider whether he'd like something that simulates the real thing, something with a smoother, advanced feel or something with a unique texture. Select a more pliable material, like jelly or silicone, if you are new to toys. The added flexibility and softness of these materials will be more comfortable for you as you experiment with what you enjoy. There's no perfect answer for what every man will like when it comes to sex toy material, since every body is different. You may want to try several materials and see what works best. Size: Big? Small? Tight? Loose? They all feel good.Masturbations sleeves are particularly tricky to size, so we've provided an entirely separate article explaining how to select the correctly sized masturbation sleeve. For erection rings, you'll want to be aware not only of the size of the ring, but also factors like material and how you put it on. Finally, for anything used for penetration of any kind, including anal toys, extenders and harnesses, start with a smaller size if you're new to these types of toys. Don't fall into the trap of thinking bigger is better all the time! Work your way up as you get more comfortable.
