Add Spice with Sex Toys

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

My wife and I have been together for nineteen years now. I love her so much, though we have gone through some periods where it seemed like our sex life was dying out. I think a lot of couples wind up breaking up during those times thinking the thrill is gone, but I am so glad she and I have stuck it out. She is so worth it.

In terms of staying together for the long haul, I can whole-heartedly recommend sex toy experimentation. It has spiced up our life together so much. In recent times, we have taken certain nights to look online for a new sex toy that catches our fancy. We order it, and when it shows up on our doorstep, you know that night is going to be fantastic. I have found that she loves anal sex toys especially, and I love giving her that pleasure. She has her eye on a fairly big anal vibrator, and I just may pick up a butt sex toy for myself.

There are plenty of aspects of a long marriage that need maintenance and get neglected. We are determined to stay vigilant and keep the spark alive. So, we acknowledge that all parts of our lives, including what happens in the bedroom, are opportunities for creating happiness.

Gearing up for a fight

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

I’m gearing up for a brutal fuck session next week with a girl I met on-line. I love these nights, sitting in front the screen browsing through the new and exciting gallery of sexual devices to introduce for a new and unexplored lover. I skim through the toys and the apparatuses to find something I think she might like. Using our conversation and cyber sex sessions to narrow my results. What sort of stimulation does she like? Anal? Oral? DP? Does she prefer Dildos or Vibrators? Shall I tie her up? Would she like to tie me up? Anticipating and preparing for a new partner in the sexual arena is like a heavyweight contender gearing up for a fight…. Well not quite, but , we’ll both be sweating. She claims to have never found her G spot so I was going to get her a G spot vibe, like the Gigi Petal Pink, or the Tantus silicone vibe, maybe play around for a while and see if I can’t give her, her first G spot orgasm? She says that from time to time she thinks she may be near it when she masturbates at home with her realistic dildo. I told her that she’ll know it for CERTAIN when she finds it and I really hope to be part of that.

Suprise me!

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

My boyfriend and I had just had the sex toy talk for the first time a week ago. He is way more experienced with sex toys than I am. I was definitely interested in learning more but didn’t even know where to start. I was curious but wasn’t even sure what I would like. I hate to say it but so many sex toys just look silly to me! My worst fear was that he’d pull something out hoping to surprise me and instead of making me hot I’d erupt into giggles.

Luckily he found the perfect way to surprise me and fulfill my fantasies without making me worry about laughing and making him feel bad. His first gift of the evening was a blindfold. Once it was over my eyes he eased me into things with a sensual massage and then brought out the sex toys. I had no idea what he was using on me at any given time and I didn’t even care. I was able to lay back and enjoy all the new sensations.

After we were done he showed me the toys that got the biggest reaction from me and left them at my place so I could experiment with them myself. He also said now that he has an idea of what sex toys I like he has all kinds of ideas of what to bring over the next time.

There is no right or wrong way to buy sex toys, just like there are no right or wrong toys to buy. When it comes to sex toys opinion matters more than anything else, you are only limited by your imagination- and there are even sex toy games that can help you expand that! When it comes to buying sex toys for someone else, like a lover, a friend, or for a bachelor/Bachelorette party, it can be a little tougher to decide. We’re going to assume that if you are shopping for a sex toy for someone else that you are fairly intimate with them. So here are some things to keep in mind, or ask slyly before hand to get an idea of what is the best choice.

What materials do they like best? Are they looking for something that will feel the most like skin?

Are they fairly conservative, or do they like to get a little rough and wild?

Is this for them to use alone or with a partner (or two or three . . .)?

If you’re shopping for a lady, or a guy with a monogamous relationship, you should also try and figure out if they get off with clitoral stimulation, penetration or both.

A dildo or vibrator is usually a good choice when shopping for someone else. They can be pleasurable for both men and women. They aren’t “out there” enough to embarrass most people but are versatile enough the even experienced sex toy users can have fun with them. Best of all they come in a huge array of colors, sizes, and materials so you can really pick out something unique to that person.

Game night just got more interesting

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

My hubby and I just did a weekend trip for our anniversary. He rented us an amazing Vermont cabin out in the woods, with gorgeous scenery and LOTS of privacy. The biggest surprise wasn’t the room though- it was the erotic games he packed for the trip.

Neither of us are very experienced with sex toys. It’s not that we aren’t a little kinky_sometimes_,it’s just that we’ve never added kinky sex toys to the mix. I’ve definitely been interested but didn’t really know how to bring the idea up. I wasn’t worried he’d think anything I was interested in was too weird, more than anything I didn’t want him to feel like he was inadequate. I had no idea he had been feeling the same way!

The game was awesome. It not only showed us how little we actually knew about each other’s sexual preferences, it also helped us open up about our fantasies. We didn’t leave the cabin all weekend and the first thing we did when we got home was to go online and buy a bunch of sex toys to try out. It was such a turn on just talking about what we wanted to do to each other with kinky sex toys, I can’t imagine how hot we’ll get when we actually have some sex toys to try out on each other!

Tub Toys

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

There is no place I like using my sex toys more than in the tub. Reclining in the bath tub I am in the perfect position to play with my adult toys. Whether you’re by yourself or with your partner there’s nothing more relaxing, or more titillating, after a long day at work!

If you’re wondering how to use sex toys in the bath the first thing to do is to make sure you’ve got the right toy. Not all sex toys are made to be waterproof- and even some that seem like they should be, aren’t. Even when I buy a sex toy that is specifically marked ‘waterproof’ I still test it out first by submerging it in a water filled sink and turning it on. This is also a good way to test the sound. You know how you’re always warned about being quiet if you have sex on the beach because of how sound travels over water? Well that goes for sex toys in the bath tub, too. I was very embarrassed one evening when I realized my normally quiet vibrator sounded much louder (me, too, while I’m being honest) when I used it for the first time in the bathtub. If you live with your partner this could be a good thing. If you’re living with roommates, probably not so much.

Another tip I’ve come across while learning how to use sex toys in the tub is that you still need to use lube. The water quickly removes the natural lubrication your body makes and a fun night of water play can end with you being sore the next day. Water-based lubes won’t do much for you when using your sex toys in the water, but any other lubricants will be just fine.

The gift that keeps on giving

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Bridal showers are usually family affairs, attended by several generations, many of whom aren’t as use to being open about their sex toys. It is, in many families, a little off color to include sex toys at the bridal shower. Bachelorette parties, on the other hand, are the time to be a little naughty!

Save the gifts of dinnerware and toaster ovens for the Bridal Shower so you don’t freak out the future mother in law, but you can really ramp up the Bachelorette Party by adding a few sex toys into the mix. Sex toys can be used in party games, as cake decorations; gifts for the Brides honeymoon and even as favors for the guests. Sex toys are truly the gift that keeps on giving.

This year Sex and the City themed Bachelorette parties are all the rage. And how better to add to the theme than to give everyone a sex toy like the rabbit vibrator made famous by the show? Other popular Bachelorette party sex toys are small bullet style vibrators, vibrating panties, and flavored massage oils and lubes.

Speculum play

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

I’ve actually done this quite a bit. My boyfriend has always had some kinky doctor/medical type of fantasies. We really mix it up. Sometimes he cross dresses as a nurse, sometimes I’m a patient, other times I’m the doctor. I think both of our favorites is a naughty receptionist scenario. For us the speculum is just one part of a larger overall fantasy that involves a lot of medical equipment. We also have some forceps types of things (great for gentle tugging and pulling), latex gloves, you name it.

We definitely use the speculum to ease the way for other anal sex toys and are working our way up to fisting. A lot of times he just leaves it in before going down on me. The pulsating throbbing feeling of coming combined with the hardness and inflexibility of the speculum is a really unique and pleasurable experience. It kind f gives you the same feeling as a butt plug without feeling as heavy or full.

Speculum play is great for non-anal play too! My bf uses it to open up my pussy and really get in there with his tongue and it’s awesome!

Party ideas

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Most clubs are pretty good about being good guests. People that don’t follow swinging etiquette tend to not get invited to the next party. It is not uncommon for the people hosting the party to request that each guest bring some type of food or drink to share. I always make sure to put it out there that I’d appreciate some help with the food and I usually end up with way more than I know what to do with.

When I’ve had parties at my house as host I always walk guests through when they come in the door. I make it a point to put the designated coat room at the far end of the house so I can walk them through and give them the layout without being obvious about what I’m doing. I always have one sex free room, usually downstairs (first time swingers will LOVE you for this. It’s a great way to keep people from feeling pressured or uncomfortable) and I point out the one sort of out of the way room that is an “anything goes” group sex room. Then I let them know that the rooms upstairs are for people to pair off in.

Don’t stress and enjoy your party! Honestly, the swingers I know are better party guests than my regular friends. It’s a friendly laid back atmosphere and people don’t usually get plastered and make messes since they want to be on top of their sexual game in case they meet someone interesting!
