Collection: Dildos

Gwendolyn Rosen

Looking for your first dildo? Here are some things to keep in mind…

Girth

Girth—the circumference of a toy— is the first thing you should consider. If you’ve never owned a dildo before, a good way to determine what girth will work for you is to consider how many fingers you like and are comfortable with inside you. In a store, you can hold your fingers up to potential dildos to see what will work with your comfort/pleasure zone. If you don’t have access to a store and are shopping around online, just measure your preferred finger amount with a tape measure and then use the exact measurement to determine what your best dildo fit is!

Shape and Length

Shape is also very important to your experience with your dildo! Do you want a dildo specifically to stimulate your g-zone or prostate? Are you looking for a realistic dildo or something more/less phallic? There are many shapes out there for you to explore!

Curved toys are ideal for g- and p-spot stimulation. Toys with any kind of head or ball at the end are great for g-spot play, particularly if they are fairly firm. If considering a realistic dildo, a more pronounced corona (the ridge between the head and shaft), will also result in greater g-spot stimulation. Textured toys add a greater sense of fullness but may be too intense for anal play, especially for a first time user, so keep that in mind. For those looking for a non-realistic toy, there are lots of fun options. Some toys are phallic, while others are made to look like fingers or are totally organic in shape.

Length is very important too. Do you like deeper penetration, or are you looking for something a little less intense? Remember that a too-long toy doesn’t have to be inserted fully in, but a too-short toy won’t get any longer, so when considering length, err on the side of too long.
