Women are spoiled in terms of the wide variety of sex toys available to them. Men, on the other hand, have a more limited selection available. Sex toy usage is commonly accepted among women, yet somewhat less accepted among men. Most male sex toys are of the insertion variety: masturbators, rubber vaginas, etc. However, there are a few toys worth adding to your collection.
Cock Rings
A cock ring is a silicone ring that goes around the shaft of your penis, or your penis and testicles. Using a cock ring will make your penis rock hard and veiny, which can be aesthetically pleasing. Cock rings can be used to assist in delaying orgasm, as the ring can slightly reduce sensation. A cock ring should not be used for more than 30 minutes at a time.
One variation that we especially recommend is the vibrating cock ring. We recommend the We-Vibe line of vibrating cock rings, which are well-made and can be controlled remotely through an app. Vibrating cock rings not only enhance penile sensations, they can also be an effective tool for practicing delayed ejaculation and achieving multiple male orgasms!
Prostate Stimulators
Stimulating the male prostate can produce pleasurable sensations unlike anything else. The easiest way to stimulate the prostate is to use a prostate massager. We recommend the Aneros line of prostate massagers, which are well-made and will last for years. The Aneros can be comfortably worn during sex, and is easily insertable for anal newbies.
Electro-Stimulation
This may be a new concept to most readers, as most sex toy shops do not sell electro-stimulation gear. But we have found that e-stim feels better than any male sex toy, not to mention that it increases sexual endurance and can help with achieving the elusive multiple male orgasm. While there are units specifically made for erotic e-stim, you can get started with a common TENS unit such as the TENS-7000.
Our article on electro-stimulation has more detail on how to get started with erotic e-stim.
Notice what we don’t have on this list: male masturbators, sleeves and other devices that mimic a blowjob or intercourse. In our experience, these toys aren’t worth the money. Your hand is much better, and free.
