Vibrators

If dogs are a man’s best friend, then vibrators can safely be counted as women’s. These popular sex toys are a convenient, reliable way to find pleasure, and though they were once a taboo topic, sex toys are now widely accepted and even encouraged as a way to enhance sex, masturbation, and promote overall well-being.

Vibrators offer many ways to reach dreamlike orgasms, and as they become less and less stigmatized, are a common addition to anyone's bedroom arsenal.

Picking the Perfect Vibrator

Sexual pleasure is becoming increasingly recognized as important for our mental and physical health, both socially and scientifically. Vibrators have become a popular tool for enhancing sexual experiences, but with so many types, shapes, and sizes of vibrators available, it can be overwhelming to choose that perfect one which suits your needs.

Types of Vibrator 

Vibrators for women are designed to stimulate either the clitoris or G-spot. Insertable vibrators will usually feature slight curves so they target the G-Spot directly, while clit vibrators are designed for external use & feature many different styles to stimulate it.

There are many types of vibrator, so we will explain just a few of the best vibrators available on Lovegasm.

Bullet Vibrators

Bullet vibrators are straightforward, small, discreet, and as the name suggests, shaped like a bullet. Powered by batteries and designed for direct clitoral stimulation, Bullet vibrators are a great choice for both solo play or to be used with a partner during sex as their slim design means they won’t get in the way.

Wand Vibrators

Wand vibrators are large and powerful, with a long handle and rounded head. Originally designed by Hitachi as a personal massage device (they still give excellent shoulder massages), they quickly gained sexual popularity as their powerful vibrating head is perfectly shaped for clitoral and vulval stimulation. Use during sex, foreplay or masturbation can lead to powerful clitoral orgasms.

Suction Vibrators

Sucking vibrators use air pressure to create suction on the clitoris. These vibrators often feature a small cup or “mouth” and can provide intense, hands-free stimulation. Suction vibrators can be great for people who enjoy clitoral stimulation and want a different sensation than traditional vibrators.

Rabbit Vibrators

Rabbit vibrators are a type of clitoral vibrator that looks like a bunny's head, with two "ears" that surround and vibrate against the clitoris, providing a sense that every part of the clitoris is vibrating. Some rabbit vibrators are built into vibrating dildos, so that when the dildo is fully inserted the rabbit will stimulate the clit simultaneously. They make a great choice for those who orgasm hardest from both internal and external stimulation.

Anal Vibrators

Anal vibrators are shaped to provide targeted stimulation against the prostate for men, and indirectly, the g-spot for women. Featuring a flared base to prevent them from getting stuck inside, anal vibrators are great for those who enjoy anal play but are looking for more powerful sensations than penetration alone.

Thrusting Vibrators

Thrusting vibrators are hands-free penetrating toys that when coupled with powerful vibrations, can lead to mind-blowing pleasure. A great toy to simulate the feeling of sex all by your lonesome, thrusting or rotating vibrators are a solid choice for all sexes.

Vibrators for Men

Male vibrators fall into two categories - ones designed for anal stimulation, and others for stimulating the penis directly.

Cock Rings

Vibrating Cock Rings are commonly used by men to make masturbation or sex more pleasurable. Placed over the base of the penis and balls, some feature small vibrators that can provide additional stimulation during sex to both the wearer of the cock ring and the receiving partner. Alternatively they can be used during solo play as the vibrations make masturbation significantly more pleasurable.

Male Masturbators

A vibrating male masturbator is a sex toy specifically designed to make masturbation more pleasurable. Usually mimicking the feeling of either a mouth, vagina or ass, when coupled with vibrations these toys can bring about premature ejaculation in even the most death-gripped individuals.

Prostate Massagers

Often called the male g-spot, the prostate is located roughly 2 inches deep in the male anus. Prostate massagers are male sex toys specifically designed to target this area, and vibrating massagers can help you achieve hands-free orgasms. Other benefits of prostate massaging can include enhanced penis sensitivity & sexual pleasure as well as improved prostate health and pelvic floor strengthening.

Cleaning your vibrator

Keeping your vibrator clean is important if you want to avoid UTIs or other infections. If you’re wondering how to clean your vibrator, it’s very simple.

Waterproof vibrators are easy to clean, simply needing to be scrubbed gently but thoroughly with warm, soapy water before and after each use. If your vibrator is not waterproof, we recommend using dedicated SEX TOY CLEANSERS and wiping it over with a clean cloth.

Drying your toy once clean as well as storing it in a dry, clean, and preferably sealed environment will prevent mold and other bacteria from growing on your toy between uses.

Body-Safe Vibrator Materials

When considering if a sex toy is body-safe, make sure it is non-porous, non-toxic, and will not break or get lost inside your body. Not all sex toys are made with body safe materials, so care must be taken when buying toys to check the materials used.

Here is our list of body-safe materials that our vibrators are made of.

• Medical grade silicone is the highest quality material that vibrators can be made of. Non-porous, softly supple and easy to clean, silicone is our top choice for any high-quality vibrator.
• ABS plastic is a hard material that tends to be cheaper than silicone. non-porous BPA & phthalate free, toys formed from ABS are body-safe and a great budget option.
• TPE and TPR plastics are soft and feel similar to silicone, while also forming non-porous, toxin-free sex toys that are BPA and phthalate free.

Other body-safe materials include borosilicate-glass & stainless steel, though these are rarely found in vibrators. Avoid any porous sex toys such as rubber, as they will build up bacteria over time and can eventually cause toxic shock.

Health benefits of vibrators

Given the numerous health benefits of frequent orgasms for both men and women, coupled with how convenient and effective vibrators are at providing orgasms, it’s no wonder they’re becoming a bedroom staple. Just a few powerful benefits of frequent orgasms include improved sleep, pain relief from endorphin release, reduced stress and anxiety, and strengthened pelvic floor muscles.

Vibrators open new doors for many to experience exciting sexual sensations, so find the right one for you.
