Quick Guide
Find the right toy for your body, pleasure and play style.
Start with what you already enjoy — or what you'd like to explore. Think sensation first, toy type second.
For penetrative toys, bigger isn't automatically better. Choose what feels comfortable and pleasurable for your body.
There's no single "correct" way. Start slowly, use lube and let your body lead.
The biggest difference is simple: do you want vibration?
A vibrator adds buzzing, rumbly or pulsing stimulation and can be used externally, internally or both, depending on its design.
A dildo puts the focus on penetration, pressure, movement, shape and fullness, although some Sh! dildos vibrate too.
More powerful doesn't necessarily mean more pleasurable. Some bodies adore deep, rumbly vibration; others prefer something softer and more subtle.
Different materials can change how a toy feels and how vibrations travel through it.
A little lube can make a big difference to comfort and sensation.
Clean toys before and after use, with warm water & mild soap or sex toy cleaner.

GOOD TO KNOW
What women ask most about sex toys.
There’s no single best sex toy for every woman. Start with the kind of sensation you enjoy. Clitoral vibrators and suction toys focus on external pleasure, internal vibrators and dildos offer penetration and pressure, while rabbit and dual-stimulation toys combine both. The best toy is the one that suits your body, preferences and play style.
Bullets, clitoral vibrators, suction toys and wands are all designed for external stimulation. If you’re sensitive, look for lower intensity settings or broader, less pinpoint stimulation. If you prefer something stronger, a wand or powerful clitoral vibrator may suit you better.
Internal vibrators and dildos are designed for penetration, pressure and movement. Curved G-spot vibrators and dildos can provide more targeted pressure against the front vaginal wall, while straighter designs offer more general internal stimulation. Choose a size and shape that feels inviting rather than assuming bigger is better.
Rabbit vibrators and other dual-stimulation toys are designed to provide internal and external stimulation at the same time. They can be particularly appealing if you enjoy penetration but also want direct clitoral stimulation.
A small bullet or clitoral vibrator is often a great place to start. They’re simple to use, affordable and let you experiment with different speeds and sensations externally. But there are no beginner rules – if another type of toy appeals to you more, start there.
Most women need direct clitoral stimulation to orgasm, so a clitoral vibrator, suction toy or wand can be a good place to explore. Different bodies respond to different sensations and intensities, and orgasm doesn’t need to be the goal every time. Experiment with what feels pleasurable without putting yourself under pressure.
What feels good can change during perimenopause and menopause. Lubricant can help with dryness and comfort, while multi-setting vibrators let you experiment with different intensities. Vaginal wellness products and dilators may also be useful where comfort or penetration has become more difficult.
Look for toys with adjustable lower settings and avoid assuming more powerful means better. Broad vibration around the clitoris can sometimes feel more comfortable than very pinpoint stimulation. You can also use a vibrator over underwear or around rather than directly on the clitoris.
Absolutely. Toys can be used during partnered sex for additional stimulation, shared sensation or simply to try something new together. Couples toys, strap-ons, remote-control toys and clitoral vibrators are just some of the options – but almost any toy can become a partner toy if you both want it to.
Think about the sensation you want rather than which toy you think you should own. Choose a vibrator if you want vibration, a dildo for penetration, pressure and movement, or a suction toy for focused external clitoral stimulation. If you want more than one sensation, dual-stimulation toys can combine them.
