How to Choose a Dildo

How to Choose a Dildo

By Ekaterina Mironova

Now you are ready to pick a dildo. You’ve read up a bit, you’re excited, but deciding on which dildo to get (especially if it is your first) can be overwhelming. Our eyes can be bigger than our openings. For that reason, you shouldn’t just run out or hop on the web and choose the grandest dildo you can find because you’re craving something big to be penetrated by.

Think about your body. What can you take? Will you want a big or small, long or short dildo all the time? For women, the body changes during the menstrual cycle, so what is good today might not fit tomorrow.

Take your time. Your dildo is an investment, and its an investment that is meant to bring you pleasure. You’ll want to scrutinize every aspect of a dildo before making a purchase, so that the moment you unwrap the box, you’ll know this is the right dildo for me.

The first thing you’ll want to take into consideration is size

Size

When it comes to pleasing yourself, no one knows better than you. Think about a penis that was particularly enjoyable. Do you remember how big it was? Or let your hands wander and experiment with 1, 2 or whatever amount of fingers feels good. When you’re hold up the fingers in the position that they were thrusting inside of you. Form a ring around them and measure the diameter of that ring to find out the thickness that fills you best.

If you’d like a more precise measurement of the girth that get you going, take a trip to the nearest grocery store and pick up a cucumber. Of course, you’ll have to clean it thoroughly. Then peel it. Once that is all done, get to playing with your cucumber just as you would a dildo. The cool wet feeling of the cucumber will feel so great that you might forget that this work is being done for some very important research. Keep shaving down until you get to the right thickness and don’t forget to mark with your fingernail the length that feels best inside.

Most dildos range from 4 inches to more than a foot and a half! Be careful of the length that you chose, because if it is too long your dildo will hit your cervix and that won’t be comfortable. On the other hand, if you opt to use your dildo with a harness remember that the harness will subtract up to an inch off the length.

This leads us to shape.

Shape

The shape that you decide on will depend on exactly how you want to be pleased. Dildos come in a variety of shapes from very exact replicas of real penises to animal cocks and space alien designs to artistic looking dildos that look more like a sculpture.

The main thing to know is that the outer third of a vagina is the most sensitive part, so toys that are thicker at the bottom offer the most stimulation when moving in and out of the body.

Curved dildos hit the g spot or prostate just right. For the majority of women that admit they or their partners have trouble finding and stimulating their sweet spot, g spot dildos are the sex toys of choice.

That is all you really need to know. Sticking a dildo inside you pleasure holes isn’t rocket science. Size does matter in the world of sex toys, so don’t let anyone tell you any different. And as for shape, well you know what you’re looking for. Now start searching for your dream dick!
