Why is it so hard for seniors to find suitable sex toys?
Even if your toy is rumbly enough to land on the Richter scale, adding hand motions will enhance your experience. When using an external stimulator, Dr. Hauser suggests moving the vibrator in a circular, vertical back and forth, horizontal side-to-side motion, or a combination of all of the above. As for G-spot vibrators, try experimenting with strokes—fast and hard or gentle and slow, the thrust intensity is literally in the palm of your hands. When you’re shopping for a sex toy, investing in a quality personal lubricant is also a good idea. Lubricant eases penetration of all types, increases comfort and sexual pleasure, and reduces friction and genital irritation. Even people who produce abundant natural lubrication may benefit from using lube for additional comfort.
While it’s on the pricey side, it has 20 different vibration patterns and 10 intensity levels (that’s more than most other vibes on this list). Plus, five hours of run time on a single charge is pretty impressive. This rechargeable vibe is similar to the Magic Wand in lots of ways—with a powerful motor, large head , and intuitive buttons—but has a sleeker package. It “feels like a little bit of luxury,” Shadeen Francis, LMFT, an AASECT-certified sex therapist, tells SELF. If you’re impressed by a sex toy that has multiple functions, you’ll love the Satisfyer Partner Multifun 3, which Wyatt rates as one of her favorite choices for couples — especially those who want to get creative with sex play.
The same goes for the phallus—the erectile tissue goes deep into your body, and stimulating it with a vibrator can provide a new and exhilarating experience. For vibrators, you want them to be made with 100 percent platinum-cured silicone and/or ABS plastic. Hard glossy plastic is OK for parts that don’t touch your genitals, but platinum silicone is nonporous, easy to clean, and body-safe. Unlike lesser grades of silicone, platinum silicone doesn’t give off any weird smells or compounds that may be unpleasant or even harmful to your genitals. That’s because it’s chemically different from other kinds of silicone. Surgical steel (also called 316 stainless steel), and borosilicate glass are just as body-safe, durable, and nonporous but less common in vibrators and more common in dildos.
If you fancy yourself a contortionist, the Nova 2 is the toy for you. Testers indicated that it provides vibrating stimulation to almost all the pleasure zones of the vagina all at once, given its dual motor action in both shafts. And because its posterior is entirely flexible and adjustable by force, this option is great for those who feel that more rigid vibrators don’t always pair well with the shape and depth of their vagina.
She currently manages her own e-commerce business and writes lifestyle and shopping content for leading publications including news.com.au, Women’s Health, Mamamia, Lifehacker, Kidspot, Elle and Better Homes & Garden. Juna particularly loves writing about beauty, health, lifestyle, food viberators, fashion, interiors and travel. When she’s not deep in words, you’ll either find her at the latest restaurant, on a long run around Sydney or at home planning her next overseas trip.
That’s because this soft, sleek, gold-accented toy has — wait for it — more than 30 different functions and 100 different vibration combinations to play around with. Its insertable shaft and two prongs, or “arms,” add to the array of options. To pick the best vibrator products for this list, I started with data on the bestselling vibrators from some of the biggest online adult stores, including Good Vibrations, Babeland and Lovehoney.
Alongside other We-Vibe toys on this list, this Nova 2 toy is fully remotely accessible via the We-Vibe app. Lovense’s most popular offerings for people with penisesis less a penetrative sex simulator and more of a holistic vibrator with mind-blowing constriction that’s temperature-controlled, too. Testers indicated that this gadget felt like a highly customized hand job which set it apart from other sleeves on this list. Alongside the Nora or another Max 2, Lovense gives you the capability of syncing up each toys to each other’s rhythms and movements, so it truly feels like lovers are experiencing the same eroticism in step with one another. Made in a familiar shape that’s time-honored, this rabbit vibrator brings all the features you already love into the future with Lovense’s mobile application. Designed to pair with the Lovense Max 2 masturbator (featured below), the Nora will respond in real time to thrusts and other motions so that each toy simulates live sex, despite being apart.
It uses gentle air pulses and suction to stimulate the clitoris and there’s a 4.5-inch handle to target the G-spot, too. It went down a treat with our panel, who praised the gorgeous design and ultra-soft silicone material. Everyone enjoyed playing around with the settings and they agreed it was exceptionally quiet, too.
