Finding the Right Vibrator for You

Finding the Right Vibrator for You

Picking out a vibrator is something that is usually based on personal preference, and so favourites will vary from one woman to the next. A recommendation for you will only work if you know what turns you on and what brings you to orgasm. Finding the right vibrator for you doesn’t have to be a long search. All it takes is a self sexual examination and a little bit of investigation on the basic types of toys the market.

The Clitoris or the Vagina…That is the Question

Learning what you like is just a matter of paying extra close attention the next time you are having sex or are pleasuring yourself. Do you like a gentle touch? Or do you like something hard, maybe even a little rough? Do you like fast stimulation or slower moves? Do you enjoy clitoral stimulation, or the feel of penetration, or both at the same time? Do you find pleasure in G-spot stimulation? Don’t worry if you don’t have all the answers to these questions at the beginning…finding out what you like is half the fun! Once you have an idea of what you enjoy, it is time to check out the toys.

For most women, their first vibrator is a clitoral vibrator. For those who are a little shy, you can start out with something small and discreet like the Lelo Nea which has a very soft design and floral pattern so it is not intimidating. Other discreet and gentle vibes to try include the 7th Heaven Luv Touch, Lelo Mia, and mini-vibes like the Angelo MiniVibe.

Those looking for a clitoral vibrator with a bit more power should check out the famous Medisil Magic Touch Massager, which is an improved version of the Hitachi Magic Wand. This is a toy with some great power, and it plugs into the wall, so you never run out of steam. Other high intensity toys include the Fun Factory Boss, and the Wand-A-Lust massager.

For those who enjoy a little penetration you don’t have to look much further than a Rabbit Vibrator like the popular IVibe Rabbit by Doc Johnson. These types of vibrators offer both clitoral stimulation as well as penetration, giving you the best of both worlds. Many versions of this vibrator also have a rotating shaft that has beads that stimulate the vaginal opening. If you like only penetration, or even G-spot stimulation, then you should check out the Lelo brand Mona, Liv, or Elise vibrators.

Other Sex Toys That Vibrate

Other sex toys to take into consideration are toys that couples can use together. Your significant other can use any type of vibrator on you that you approve, or perhaps the two of you could combine vibrating action with remote control strap-on vibes, which vibrate against the clitoris.

Cock rings, such as the 4Us Cock Ring, easily slide onto the penis and provide clitoral stimulation while the man enters you. Strap-on vibrators with a remote allow you or your partner to control your pleasure with a push of a button. Some popular models of these toys include the Impulse Hypersonic Bunny, the Remote Venus Penis and the Wireless Remote control butterfly.

Finding the right vibrator for you will be much easier once you know the top selling available vibrators and can define your own pleasure.
