To determine which type is right for you, you should first consider your needs. Are you planning to use the toy only for self-stimulation or will it also be used with a partner? Some dildos have flat bases that can make them easier to use on their own. Others have two ends and are intended for use with a male or female partner. If you're looking for a traditional single-ended dildo, you'll find that there are different shaft styles. Some are smooth while others have ribs and bumps along their surfaces for enhancing your pleasure. Some models are also designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Sometimes called kegel exercisers, these toys may help to improve bladder control or muscle tone.

What are Dildos Made of?

Dildos don't just vary in style. They also can be made out of many different types of materials, so you'll need to consider which type you prefer when making your selection. Toys made of glass, metal and hard plastic are nonporous and easy to clean; however, they are not flexible. Toys made of silicone, vinyl, rubber and nylon have more give and can bend. You'll need to decide whether you prefer a more rigid or more flexible dildo when making your selection.

Dildo Accessories

A dildo can be used on its own during masturbation or partner play, but there are also accessories that can be used with this type of toy. Strap-on harnesses can be worn by women to simulate sex with a dildo. If you plan to purchase a harness, you'll need to choose a dildo that will fit onto the base. You may also want to purchase a storage case for your toy if one is not included. Properly storing your toy can help to keep it sanitary.

Care and Safety

In order to ensure your safety, be sure to clean your dildo according to the manufacturer's instructions after every use. Before using the toy, inspect it for any signs of wear and tear. Never use a toy that is cracked or otherwise damaged. If you are using your dildo with a partner, slip a latex condom over the shaft to protect yourself from sexually transmitted diseases. Using a lubricant can enhance safety and pleasure when using a dildo alone or with a partner.
