Industrial Vibrators
She has also written for a variety of publications including Business Insider, Glamour, Bustle, Metro, HuffPost UK, gal-dem and more. Outside of work, Priyankaa can usually be found trying out a new gym class, seeking out London’s best eats or watching a Spanish TV show in a bid to keep up her language skills. Sure enough, it was a big hit with our testers, with one enthusiastic panellist describing it as, “the best vibrator ever”.
“A clitoral panty vibe can be used against the vulva, along the perineum, around the nipples, across the balls , or up and down the shaft of a penis,” she says. However, if a toy is made specifically for external use, don’t try to insert it in any of your or your partner’s holes. Doing so could potentially lead to injury and a mood-killing trip to the hospital. Rabbits vibrators are generally more expensive than other sex toys because they are a two-in one device – offering both clitoral stimulation with the shorter external arm and a G-spot stimulation with the shaft. This rabbit vibrator from premium sex toy brand Lelo definitely fits into the super luxe category. With an ergonomic shape and five different vibration patterns, the Com is the perfect choice for those craving intense external clitoral stimulation.
As SELF previously reported, sex toys can pass along STIs, so safer sex practices apply here. If you’re using a sex toy with someone outside of a sexually monogamous partnership, put a condom over your toy. Condoms are also key if you want to use a toy for both vaginal and anal stimulation (which you can do as long as the toy is safe for anal, a.k.a. it has a flared base). With that being said, each clit is as unique as a snowflake and should be treated as such, according to Lexington, Kentucky-based marriage and family therapist Juliana Hauser, PhD. “Discover if your glans (clitoral tip) likes light vibration or a stronger speed,” she says.
Two powerful motors offer nine vibration modes, which are easily controlled by the built-in buttons on its handle. As with other rabbits, its two massagers work on both the G-spot and clitoris, with both ends working in unison. Thick, long, and powerful, this silicone beast is insertable up to 15cm for ridiculous vaginal and G-spot stimulation. Once you switch it on, you can grasp its loop-style handle and click through 12 different vibration patterns and intensities using the buttons embedded within the easy-grip helve.
The Dame Fin has three different vibration speeds, with the highest speed being super powerful. I was actually shocked by how rumbly it was — it stimulated just as well as some of my larger vibes. And it’s slim enough that you can slip it between you and your partner during sex. This G-spot stimulator is similar to the tapping vibrator above that tapes on the G-spot once inserted, only instead of a bunny shape it features a beautiful butterfly on a mission to deliver pure pleasure to the clitoris. It has four flapping and nine vibrating modes that work in tandem and a beautiful rose-shaped base. Made famous by Sex and The City over 25 years ago, The Rabbit vibrator is known for its ability to stimulate the clitoris with impeccable precision.
Prior to reading the result, do you care to guess the percentage of women who claimed to have used a vibrator? Herbenick and her colleagues cited several studies wherein the figure varied wildly, from 1 percent up to 47. Several years ago, in one of my undergraduate consumer behavior classes, a group of students decided to study sex differences in browsing behavior at sex shops (as the topic of their semester-long project). This was a fortuitous topic as Montreal is replete with such retail outlets, especially in the downtown area. I don’t recall all of the specific findings but I suspect that vibrators constituted perhaps the most common sex item that female consumers checked out whilst in the stores.
A lot of toys have multiple settings, and that often allows you to turn up and down the intensity, speed, and/or pattern of vibrations. While it might be tempting to crank your toy all the way up (and you should totally do that when you’re ready to, even if that is, in fact, right away), you can also experiment with bumping up the intensity gradually. Though most people refer to the bean-shaped area at the upper crest of the vulva as the clitoris, New York City-based board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist Monica Grover, MD, says it’s just the beginning of this sensitive zone. “The external clitoris is located above the urethra and where the bilateral inner labia meet,” says Dr. Grover. This toy has a whopping 10 contraction rings inside it viberators, for some serious stroking. The Onyx+ can be used for long-distance play, like the Lovense Max 2 above, by syncing up with another Kiiro sex toy (like the brand’s Pearl 2 vibrator) and replicating how your partner’s using it.
