What is a Vibrator?

A vibrator is an electric device that massages areas of the body – used most often on the penis, vagina and anus. The most common use of vibrators is by women for masturbation, but many men use vibrators to supplement their sexual experiences as well. Vibrators come in all shapes, textures and sizes, each catering to a particular taste. With the thousands of vibrators on the market today, you’ll almost certainly be able to find one that suits your taste. Those open to vibrators find they add an exciting dimension to everyday sex or masturbation.

What to look for in a Vibrator?

When shopping for vibrators, most people shop from a mail-order catalog or a sex boutique. For those of you that are shy, it can be difficult to ask questions about vibrators because you will have to reveal a bit about your sexual preferences in the process.

Your tastes

The vibrator that you choose will have to be compatible with those who are going to use it. Is the vibrator just for you or is it for you and your partner? If you plan to use this vibrator as a couple then be sure that you and your partner shop for the vibrator together. Include your partner in the decision so that he or she can be most comfortable with the purchase. Sometimes men may be a little uncomfortable when a vibrator enters the picture, especially when it resembles their manhood! If your partner is a little uncomfortable, try the Pocket Rocket Classix Mini. This tiny vibe – designed for specifically for external stimulation – is consistently one of best selling adult toys on the market. Women adore the direct clitoral stimulation. The Pocket Rocket Classix Mini is a perfect first vibrator for couples. But what do you do about solo play?

Vibrators are most often used alone to make masturbation magical and clearly the most important characteristic of a vibrator is its ability to stimulate. So your first task to determine what type of stimulation you find most enjoyable. Let’s start with the strength of vibration. The intensity of the vibrations will depend on what type of vibrator you choose. Electric plug-in vibrators usually produce the greatest intensity of vibration. These models typically come with a number of different settings, giving you a choice of intensities. Be aware that some of the lower settings are too much for some – so if subtle vibration is what you’re looking for, look elsewhere. The most famous electric vibrator has to be the Hitachi Magic Wand. This model has become known across the world for its exceptional power. The vibrating head is shaped like a tennis ball and is used primarily for external stimulation. Because it’s made by Hitachi, the quality and durability are beyond reproach. Those of you who think you would appreciate strong, intense vibrations may want to investigate the Hitachi Magic Wand further.

By contrast, battery powered vibrators usually provide more subtle vibration. It’s a challenge to choose from the thousands of different models available. So start with intensity of vibration. You can normally judge the intensity of vibration by the number of batteries required. A vibrator that takes two C batteries will be stronger than one that takes only AA batteries. Choosing your first vibrator however, is not just looking at battery requirements. Consider which areas of your body you would like to stimulate. Most sex toys are designed to massage a specific area of the body. The vast majority of vibrators on the market can be used for vaginal/clitoral/anal stimulation. A perfect first for first timers is suggested to be the bullet. Its nothing fancy, no lights or sounds. It’s thin and straight. It’s great for stimulation and subtle enough to handle.

Getting what you pay for

When shopping for your first vibrator, you may think that $80-$100 is pricey, but with vibrators you really do get what you pay for. Cheaper vibrators are great if you’re interested in trying a vibrator for the first time – just don’t expect it to last. Toys in the $20 range rarely last as long as you’d like them to. They last but if you use it on a regular, you may be purchasing another one sooner than you think. The point is: if you want a quality product, you’re going to have to pay for it. Women looking for a quality toy should look at the Rabbit Pearl. The rotating head provides incredible vaginal stimulation while the little bunny focuses on the clitoris.

Why use a vibrator?

For Women

Vibrators are often quite accommodating to women who can’t reach orgasm during masturbation or sex. Many women require constant, prolonged clitoral stimulation in order to achieve an orgasm, and the vibrator can provide the required stimulation. The unwavering vibrations on the clitoris and surrounding areas send many women into orgasm much more quickly than a hand, tongue or penis and in addition, produce a more intense climax. The gadget, however, is not just for sexual pleasure; vibrators also have many other sexual health benefits. For those women who have decreased mobility due to accident or disability, vibrators can be a wonderful, soothing addition. Women who have sore genitals because of a pregnancy can use a vibrator to ease their pain. Finally, women may experience reduced sensitivity as they age and the vibrator can be just the device to create the stimulation they were used to in their earlier years. Vibrators are a simple, versatile sexual toy for women who want to explore new avenues of sexual satisfaction.

For Men

Men often overlook the benefits of a vibrator. Men typically do not experience the same difficulty achieving orgasm that women sometimes do, so vibrators are not needed or desired. Yet, many men enjoy the vibrating sensation on their genitals. Vibrators that are made for men include vibrating sleeves, and vibrating penis rings.

For Couples

For couples, vibrators enhance even the healthiest sexual relationship. A vibrator can provide mutual pleasure when a woman presses it against her clitoris during intercourse as the vibrations can also be felt by her mate. Vibrators can also be used to enhance oral sex, by placing the vibrator on the genitals while oral stimulation is being performed. Show your partner how you use your vibrator when alone, so he or she can learn which techniques provide the most intense sensations. A wonderful to use with partners is Partners Pleasure Ring.

Remember that you can ask the sales associate to open packages in which you are interested in viewing. This way you can see if the product is truly worth buying. Be a smart buyer when it comes to your sexual pleasure. Vibe On!!!!!!!!
