Strap ons come in a range of sizes from under 5 inches and can range up to between 9 and 10 inches. Circumference sizes range from beginners at around 4 inches, up to larger sizes of between 5.5 inches and 7 inches (or above). So knowing the size of the strap-on to get is critical for safe, comfortable and pleasurable use. Thus, we preprared the following strap-on sizing guide where we disucss how to measure yourself and your partner for a most fitting strap-on toy! How to Measure for a Strap-On? To measure a vagina, you will need a vibrator (if possible), or an alternative object which is long, clean and has a smooth surface. To begin, either you or your partner lay on their back with legs spread. The vagina needs stimulating at this point, as it elongates when it is aroused. Once aroused, you can start sliding the vibrator or phallic object into the vagina. When you reach the max comfortable depth, mark this on the vibrator/phallic object. This is the strap on length (for the dildo or vibrator) which the vagina can safely handle. To measure circumference or girth, you can use your fingers and slide one at a time until you reach the limit. Then, wrap the tape measure around the fingers and you;ll get the circumference of the strap-on the vagina can comfortably take.. Sex Toy Measurements Generally speaking there are four vital measurements for any sex toy you need to know: Length: The full length of the toy from the two farthest points, which we refer to as total lenght. Insertable Length: The length of the toy that can be safely inserted. Width (or diameter): The distance between the two sides of the toy. Girth (or circumference): The circumference of the toy which is relevant to insertable toys. Sizing for Hollow Strap-Ons A hollow strap-on is mostly worn by men who have a smaller penis, so for these, measure the length f the penis when it is fully aroused (if possible). It is the measurement that ensures the penis will fit in the hollow dildo canal.This is to make sure they can fit their penis inside the hollow canal. Make sure you measure the circumference and calculate the diameter, as most product descriptions share the diameter of the hollow dildo strap-on. It is a simple math - divide the circumference by 3.14 and you'll get the diameter, and you'll know the size to look for. Shop Hollow Strap-Ons ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Vibrating Strap-Ons You need to measure the length and circumference of the vibrating strap-on. If you get a simpler vibrating strap-on with a dildo and an harness, then only measure the safe size the receiver can manage. But if you are looking to buy a strapless strap-on, then you should also know the size the wearer can manage. To measure for a strapless strap-on, you need to measure the size the vagina can safely take, as the strapless strap-on is worn in the vagina and held in place by the Kegel muscles. If you have previous experience with egg vibes, these can be a good starting point. However, if you don't have a previous reference, then use deduction to find a model that will be comfortable. Even better, you can get an inflatable strapless strap-on for a perfect fit. Shop Vibrating Strap-Ons ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Strap-On Compatible Dildos Strap-on or harness compatible dildos are designed to give a unique feel to the receiver. They come in varying ranges, so you can get a small, medium, and even large strap-on compatible dildos. To measure the insertable length, you can us ethe method we described above: measure the length the vagina can safely take when it is fully aroused. Do this with a dildo, a vibrator or another phallic object and you'll get the length of the dildo. While you are at it, measure the circumference and calculate the diameter, and you'll get a good idea of the size of strap-on compatible dildo to get. You can find insertable lengths of strap-on compatible dildos at around 5 to 6 inches and then larger varieties of between 7 to 8 inches. Please note that to fit the dildo in the strap-on, you need to take into account the O-ring and base, as once fitted in the harness, the insertable lenght gets shorter. In any case, our product descriptions tend to share the insertable length for most strap-on compatible dildos, so we have you covered. Shop Strap-On Compatible Dildos ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Strap-On Harness To measure for a strap-on harness is much easier than measuring for the accompanying toy. Becasue most strap-on harnessses are adjustable, you can look at the general product description where we share the range of adjustability, so you will know your chosen model will be the right ft. Measure you waist for the main waist size; then measure around your thighs where the harness will fit. For this, we recommend you use a flexible tape measure that will allow you to wrap it around your thighs and butt, measuring the exact size you need. Also, note that most adjustable strap-on harnesses have a give of about 5-10 inches, so you can safely get a model that appeals to you visually and you can expect it will fit you nicely. If you are going after a strap-on underwear model, then you need to be more careful, as these are not adjustable. Our product descriptions list the sizes for each strap-on underwear model, which are comparable to the US dress sizes, so you can find the one that is closest to your size. We also have a plus-size strap-on harnesses and underwear category for those ladies with broader hips. Shop Strap-On Harnesses ===COLLECTION=== Shop Strap-On Underwear ===COLLECTION=== How to Choose the Best Strap-On Dildo Harness As you’ve seen above, you have so many strap-on harness options. Choosing a strap-on harness depends on your preference, intended use, and skill level. Here are some tips that can help you hone in on what model would be best for you. If you want some light fun, you can opt for an underwear-style harness that comes with visual appeal and is effortless to maintain. If you are into serious roleplay and want to take the male role, then we suggest you pick a strap-on harness model that provides better control, like a double-strap harness. Strap-On Harness Considerations The size of the harness is essential, as you need a harness that fits snugly on your body. If the harness is loose, then you risk losing control and ruining the experience. If your harness is too tight, you will be uncomfortable and even risk restricting circulation. Make sure your harness fits comfortably, as you don’t want it bumping on the vaginal mound too much, which can lead to desensitizing of the area and diminished sensitivity. The next thing to consider is the material of the harness, as you are wearing this on your bare skin. The material should be body-safe and comfortable, so we advise you opt for woven nylon, leather, silicone, rubber, or faux leather strap-on harness materials for harnesses with straps and microfiber for underwear strap-on harnesses. If you find that you can’t stand the feeling of the harness material on your body, you can put on a pair of underwear underneath the strap-on harness. Also, make sure you play gently, as too vigorous movements can make the strap-on harness loose, and you risk harming your partner. Strap-On Harness Benefits You get a lot of benefits from introducing a strap-on in your sexy games. These are designed to accommodate a strap-on dildo with which you can penetrate your partner. But if you want solo playtime, you can try the arm or thigh harnesses and attach them to various furniture. All the different strap-on harnesses have their appeal, as some are for beginners, some are very sexy, and some are very versatile. Still, the double-strap harness is the most versatile model, as it is very adjustable, stays in place, and holds the dildo securely. Using a quality double-strap harness will allow you to concentrate on pleasuring your partner instead of worrying that the dildo will slip away. Some of the aforementioned strap-on harnesses can be worn by men, which opens up a new avenue for sexy play. Some are designed for double penetration of a female partner. In contrast, others come with hollow dildo attachments that help men with ED or premature ejaculation or add length and girth to the man’s penis. Shop Plus-Size Strap On Harnesses ===COLLECTION=== Strap-On Safety Considerations Always take caution when putting your strap-on harness on, as you can overtighten the straps if you are not careful. Please note that reputable manufacturers have safety measures in place to protect users against this, which is why there are harnesses in different sizes. Make sure you get the correct size strap-on harness to start with. Another thing to consider is the O-ring buckles, as these are usually metal snaps that hold the O-ring in place. When you get your strap-on harness, make sure you check for any rough edges that can harm your partner. Also, please note that the most important thing safety-wise is the use of the strap-on dildo. Because the wearer does not feel anything, having constant communication with the receiver is essential. Don’t be stingy with the lube, and always use lube that is compatible with the dildo material. We suggest you use a quality water-based lube and apply it regularly during play. Strap-On Harness Use Suggestions People use strap-on harnesses and various strap-on dildos to prolong sexual play. A man can wear a hollow strap-on dildo and continue having intercourse even after he’s ejaculated. In another scenario, the man can put on a hollow dildo strap-on and penetrate their partner, as the decreased sensation allows them to last longer. Men with ED can find this model extremely useful, as penetration, which is usually impossible for men with ED, is a real possibility by using a strap-on harness with a hollow dildo attached to it. An exciting sexual activity where strap-on harnesses are essential is pegging – an activity where the male partner is penetrated by a female partner with a dildo or another phallic object. The action stimulates the prostate which can lead to deeper, stronger orgasms in men. Instead of using a handheld dildo, a suitable strap-on harness with a pegging dildo can be the perfect option. Even oral sex is a thing with a strap-on harness and a suitable dildo, as many couples love the visual turn-on. Using a strap-on harness with a suitable dildo is the perfect option for female-on-female sex, where one partner wears the harness and vaginally or analy penetrates the other partner. We leave further strap-on harness applications to your imagination. Cleaning & Storage Tips Cleaning your harness depends on the material it is made from. In most cases, you can throw strap-on harnesses made from woven nylon or microfiber in an underwear bag and wash them in a washing machine on a cold cycle. Please note that these should not be dried in a dryer as the heat can ruin them. Leather strap-on harnesses are more challenging to clean, as these need a hot water wash and conditioning of the leather to protect it from stiffening up or cracking. Faux leather (leatherette) can be spot-cleaned but not wholly washed with water, as it can deform from the warm water. After you clean and dry your strap-on harness, we suggest you store them in a protective bag to avoid them getting tangled with other items. Also, please note that you should store them in a dry, cool place, away from heat and direct sunlight. An underwear drawer is a suitable storage place. The Bottom Line Overall, using a strap-on harness allows your imagination to run wild so you and your partner can explore new sexual horizons. Nothing stops you from getting several models, trying and comparing them until you find the one that fits you best. Lucky for you, our store is stocked with excellent strap-on harness selection, as well as a variety of other exciting sex toys that fit anyone’s wishes.

We suggest you always use a dildo that is compatible with your strap-on harness, and this relates to the size of the O-ring diameter and the base of the dildo. Another thing to note is that you should not use dildos that are too long with your strap-on harness, as this can be too heavy for comfortable use. What is the ideal O-ring size for pegging my husband? We always suggest you start low and go slow. Since the anus is much tighter and does not self-lubricate, you should use a pegging dildo specifically designed for anal penetration. In terms of O-ring size, these are usually about 1.25-inch diameter and are made from body-safe silicone. However, this is a personal matter, and a matter you should discuss with your husband.

Strap-on sex toys are pretty popular among a broad audience, and rightfully so, as these are fun and exciting and bring a lot of variety in your sex life. However, strap-ons are more than the fun dildo end, as they need an essential part – the strap-on harness that makes everything possible. The strap-on harness holds the dildo in place, close to the body, allowing you to safely and securely use the strap-on. The strap-on harnesses allow hands-free play and come in many shapes and sizes. So, here we’ll share all you need to know about strap-on harnesses, as well as the essential things you need to know when selecting a strap-on harness for you. Strap-On Harness Dildo Attachment Types The strap-on design has evolved over the years, and today, you get a vast selection of harness designs and materials. Before we tackle the dildo harnesses, we need to discuss the locking options they come with – the way the strap-on dildo attaches to the strap-on harness. O-ring – in this design, you attach your strap-on compatible dildo to the harness using an O-ring that is attached to the harness. The O-ring is usually made from rubber, silicone, or metal and comes in several diameters that fit various dildo sizes. We suggest you look for an O-ring strap-on harness that allows for the changing of the O-rings so you can use it with different dildos. Vac-U-Lock – the Vac-U-Lock design is a patented design by Doc Johnson, one of the USA’s premier sex toy manufacturers. It is a specialized ridged peg that is fixed at the front of the harness, and the dildo locks in via the ridges of the peg. We have to note that even if you have a Vac-U-Lock-compatible dildo but don’t have the harness plug if the dildo has a flared base, you can still use it with an O-ring harness. Suction base – per this design, the strap-on harness has a smooth “body-dock” base that is compatible with a dildo with suction cup base. You can use any suction cup dildo with this strap-on harness, as the surface is concave and very smooth, allowing for easy and sturdy attaching of your suction cup dildo. Shop Strap-On Harnesses ===COLLECTION=== Strap-On Harness Models Let us now cover all the strap-on harness models you can try. Please note that each of these has an intended use, and you should select the one that fits your needs and wants. Also, we must note that many of these feature internal pockets where you can fit a vibrating bullet, a small bottle of lube, or even a condom. Double-Strap Harness – the most famous strap-on harness design, this is one of the most comfortable and stable harnesses you can get. It looks like a jock-strap athletes wear. The double-strap harness attaches around the waist and has two straps that go under the butt, attaching to the waist strap. The straps are almost always adjustable, so you can make the perfect fit. We have to note that this is a unisex design, so men and women can wear it. G-String Harness – very similar to the double-strap harness, this model has a waist strap and a single strap that sits between the butt cheeks and attaches to the waist strap in the back. These are more comfortable for women, as the G-string strap can comfortably sit between the labia lips and the butt. Please note that thicker straps may be uncomfortable for some wearers. Corset Harness – a model that is very similar to the double-strap harness; this attaches around the waist and has two straps that go under the butt. The difference is that this harness is modeled to resemble sexy lingerie and appears more elegant and even delicate. Please note that these are usually more expensive but are just as sturdy as the regular double-strap harnesses. Underwear Harness – molded after actual underwear, this strap-on harness is one of the most comfortable harness types you can use. Most often, underwear style strap-on panties have O-rings stitched in the design, so you can only fit one size dildo, and they don’t allow adjustability. However, you can also wear these as regular underwear and be ready at any time. Lingerie Harness – designed like the underwear harness, this strap-on harness type is sexier and often comes with garters. Some models have fixed O-rings, but they come with adjustable straps that allow you to mold them to your body. Also, most models come with an open back for a sexier look. Thigh and arm harness – these harness types are not intended to be worn around the waist but around the leg or the arm and allow unique penetration scenarios. We also like these as they allow you to expand your sexy horizons, as they are perfect for attaching to furniture, facilitating, and spicing up solo time. Harness kits – we included these models here as we belive these are the best option for beginners. Strap-on sets come with an all-in-one solution where the dildo is fitted to the harness. These come with adjustable straps so you can fit them to your body and provide reasonable control and comfort for the wearer.

We have often mentioned that you need to choose a sex toy like a vibrator or a dildo based on your experience, and that includes looking at the size and deciding on a size you can safely and comfortably manage. But how do you know what size to get, and what about the other features that affect the user experience? Well, today, we take on the task of providing you with a guide on how to choose the perfect size vibrator for you, and we’ll also cover all the other essential facts about choosing a highly stimulating vibrating toy. What is a Vibrator? The vibrator is a sex toy that has an internal vibrating mechanism that vibrates and stimulates the areas it is pressed against. The vibrator is one of the most popular and best-known sex toys, with almost 80% of women in the USA having reported they own at least one vibrator. You get a massive selection of different vibrators, ranging from simple dildo-shaped vibrators to bullet vibes, panty vibes, finger vibes, G-spot vibes, and much more. To choose a model that works best for you, you need to first consider if you want to get an insertable toy or one for external stimulation. Shop All Vibrators ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Insertable Vibrators We’ll start with a sizing guide for insertable vibrators, as these are intended for internal stimulation, so size is critical here. The metrics you need to know are the length and the diameter of the insertable vibrator. You will also need to consider if you’ll only use your vibrator for vaginal play or if you’ll want to include some anal playtime. If you decide on a vibrator for just vaginal use, then you can go for a model that is longer and girthier, which can provide you with a more delicious stretch. How to Measure for Insertable Vibrators? Now, here is how to measure your body so you can get a well-fitting vibrator. We advise you to use your fingers and a tape measure to get precise measurements. First, relax and enjoy some foreplay, and once you feel you are ready, you can insert your fingers into your vagina. Start with one finger and add one (or two) more until you are comfortable with the fit. Measure the diameter across your fingers, and you’ll find the girth you can comfortably manage. Divide this measurement by 3.14, and you’ll get the diameter. To measure the length, you can use your fingers or another phallic object, like your partner’s penis or a dildo you enjoy using. Insert the dildo/phallic object/fingers into your vagina and measure the length you can comfortably take. Please note that if you want to use the vibrator for G-spot stimulation, you don’t need an extra long toy, as the G-spot is located about 2 to 3 inches inside the vagina, on the front wall. However, if you want to experience deep vaginal stimulation, then you can get a longer insertable G-spot vibrator. If you are after a combined stimulation, then we recommend you get a rabbit vibe that is optimized for simultaneous clitoral and G-spot stimulation. Measuring for a G-spot vibe is simple because, as we noted, the G-spot is located at 2 to 2 inches inside the vagina, so you should look for a rabbit vibe with about 5 inches of insertable length on average. In contrast, the rest of the rabbit vibe’s length is the handle. However, there are various models that you can find, some with 3 inches in insertable length and others with more than 6 inches in insertable length. Sizing for External Stimulation Vibrators Now, we’ll talk about the external stimulation vibrators and how to measure for size. When it comes to external stimulation, you can get finger vibrators, bullet vibrators, panty vibes, tongue vibes, grinding toys, and vibrating wands, to name a few. To pick the model that you will enjoy best, consider the answers to the following questions: Broad or focused stimulation – think about the stimulation you want to experience, like a toy covering the entire vulva or a toy that provides a focused, pinpoint stimulation. Only clitoral stimulation or whole-body teasing – are you looking for a toy to only stimulate the clitoris, or do you want to use your vibrating toy to tease other erogenous zones like the nipples, the neck, or anywhere else? Lightweight and compact or large model– consider if you want to get a small, portable vibe that can be easier to maneuver but comes with less power. Or maybe you want a highly powerful vibrating wand, which comes with the trade-off of being large and bulky and not very portable. Now that you have the answers, you can narrow down your selection and easily find the external stimulation vibe for you. How to Measure for External Stimulation Vibrators? Measuring for an external stimulation vibrator is much easier than measuring for an insertable vibe, i.e., it is not necessary to actually measure anything. Simply consider the intended use and choose a model that appeals to you. The average size of a bullet vibrator is about 5 inches in total, so you can use these to stimulate the clitoris or your other erogenous zones. However, you can also find small bullet vibes that are only 2 inches in length, which are perfect for adding extra stimulation when you play with another toy. If you’ve opted for a finger vibe, then an important measurement is the loop that attaches the vibe to your finger. However, you can also get models that fit between your fingers, and these come with a "one-size-fits-most" at about 2 to 3 inches in length, allowing you to enhance playtime. Now, while there is no need to measure for a vibrating wand toy, you need to know that the size of a wand is between 7 and 12 inches, and these are designed only for external stimulation. Because of their larger vibrating heads, these provide more powerful vibrations that spread over a broader area, and you can use these to stimulate the entire vulva or even massage that crick in your neck. The Bottom Line We tried to cover the basics related to finding the perfect measurements for a vibrator, and we looked at the techniques for measuring different vibrating toys. However, we have a lot more helpful guides on choosing and using various sex toys, which you can check out on our blog.

Strap ons come in a range of sizes from under 5 inches and can range up to between 9 and 10 inches. Circumference sizes range from beginners at around 4 inches, up to larger sizes of between 5.5 inches and 7 inches (or above). So knowing the size of the strap-on to get is critical for safe, comfortable and pleasurable use. Thus, we preprared the following strap-on sizing guide where we disucss how to measure yourself and your partner for a most fitting strap-on toy! How to Measure for a Strap-On? To measure a vagina, you will need a vibrator (if possible), or an alternative object which is long, clean and has a smooth surface. To begin, either you or your partner lay on their back with legs spread. The vagina needs stimulating at this point, as it elongates when it is aroused. Once aroused, you can start sliding the vibrator or phallic object into the vagina. When you reach the max comfortable depth, mark this on the vibrator/phallic object. This is the strap on length (for the dildo or vibrator) which the vagina can safely handle. To measure circumference or girth, you can use your fingers and slide one at a time until you reach the limit. Then, wrap the tape measure around the fingers and you;ll get the circumference of the strap-on the vagina can comfortably take.. Sex Toy Measurements Generally speaking there are four vital measurements for any sex toy you need to know: Length: The full length of the toy from the two farthest points, which we refer to as total lenght. Insertable Length: The length of the toy that can be safely inserted. Width (or diameter): The distance between the two sides of the toy. Girth (or circumference): The circumference of the toy which is relevant to insertable toys. Sizing for Hollow Strap-Ons A hollow strap-on is mostly worn by men who have a smaller penis, so for these, measure the length f the penis when it is fully aroused (if possible). It is the measurement that ensures the penis will fit in the hollow dildo canal.This is to make sure they can fit their penis inside the hollow canal. Make sure you measure the circumference and calculate the diameter, as most product descriptions share the diameter of the hollow dildo strap-on. It is a simple math - divide the circumference by 3.14 and you'll get the diameter, and you'll know the size to look for. Shop Hollow Strap-Ons ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Vibrating Strap-Ons You need to measure the length and circumference of the vibrating strap-on. If you get a simpler vibrating strap-on with a dildo and an harness, then only measure the safe size the receiver can manage. But if you are looking to buy a strapless strap-on, then you should also know the size the wearer can manage. To measure for a strapless strap-on, you need to measure the size the vagina can safely take, as the strapless strap-on is worn in the vagina and held in place by the Kegel muscles. If you have previous experience with egg vibes, these can be a good starting point. However, if you don't have a previous reference, then use deduction to find a model that will be comfortable. Even better, you can get an inflatable strapless strap-on for a perfect fit. Shop Vibrating Strap-Ons ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Strap-On Compatible Dildos Strap-on or harness compatible dildos are designed to give a unique feel to the receiver. They come in varying ranges, so you can get a small, medium, and even large strap-on compatible dildos. To measure the insertable length, you can us ethe method we described above: measure the length the vagina can safely take when it is fully aroused. Do this with a dildo, a vibrator or another phallic object and you'll get the length of the dildo. While you are at it, measure the circumference and calculate the diameter, and you'll get a good idea of the size of strap-on compatible dildo to get. You can find insertable lengths of strap-on compatible dildos at around 5 to 6 inches and then larger varieties of between 7 to 8 inches. Please note that to fit the dildo in the strap-on, you need to take into account the O-ring and base, as once fitted in the harness, the insertable lenght gets shorter. In any case, our product descriptions tend to share the insertable length for most strap-on compatible dildos, so we have you covered. Shop Strap-On Compatible Dildos ===COLLECTION=== Sizing for Strap-On Harness To measure for a strap-on harness is much easier than measuring for the accompanying toy. Becasue most strap-on harnessses are adjustable, you can look at the general product description where we share the range of adjustability, so you will know your chosen model will be the right ft. Measure you waist for the main waist size; then measure around your thighs where the harness will fit. For this, we recommend you use a flexible tape measure that will allow you to wrap it around your thighs and butt, measuring the exact size you need. Also, note that most adjustable strap-on harnesses have a give of about 5-10 inches, so you can safely get a model that appeals to you visually and you can expect it will fit you nicely. If you are going after a strap-on underwear model, then you need to be more careful, as these are not adjustable. Our product descriptions list the sizes for each strap-on underwear model, which are comparable to the US dress sizes, so you can find the one that is closest to your size. We also have a plus-size strap-on harnesses and underwear category for those ladies with broader hips.

Perhaps the best way to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles is to use kegel balls. These small spheres, also known as Ben Wa balls, Venus balls, pleasure balls, love balls, or geisha balls, have been used by women for centuries as they are the best way to give your pelvis a proper workout. So, today, we discuss how to measure your body with kegel balls, and we’ll also outline the benefits the female body can reap from regularly using pleasure balls. What are Kegel Balls? Kegel balls are small, smooth spherical,or oblong objects that are placed into the vagina to exercise the pelvic floor muscles. There are different models, like single balls or two connected balls; they usually come with a retrieval cord. To use the kegel balls, you need to insert them into the vagina and try to hold onto them with the pelvic muscles; this way, you are tightening the pelvic floor muscles and gaining stronger muscles that can lead to a tighter vagina, better sex, help with incontinence, stronger orgasms, and even recovery after giving birth. But how do you measure the size of kegel balls that fit you? Shop All Kegel Balls ===COLLECTION=== How to Measure for Ben Wa Balls? Measuring for Ben Wa balls is slightly different than measuring for regular sex toys. You need to wear these into the vagina, so knowing the size you can safely and comfortably manage is the most important thing. You can measure this in one of two ways: Use your fingers – Since the kegel balls don’t need to go too deep into the vagina, you can use your fingers to measure how much your vagina can take. For this, get some lube and insert one finger into the vagina; you don’t have to be particularly aroused to measure for kegel balls. Make sure the fingers don’t provide too much stretch, as you want these to fit nicely and not slip out. Then, measure around your finger/s, and you’ve measured the circumference you can safely take. Divide the circumference by 3.14, and you’ll get the diameter of the geisha balls you can take. Our product descriptions clearly outline the important dimensions of every product. Compare tampon size – another way to measure Kegel balls is to compare the usual tampon size you use. If you use a small tampon and it moves around, it points to a larger size, which means you should look for medium-sized Kegel balls. Kegel Ball Weight Another important measurement when it comes to geisha balls is their weight. These can be made from various materials, and, of course, these come with different weights. Please note that the diameter of the Kegel balls does not always correspond to the weight, as there are smaller yet weighted balls, and there are bigger yet lighter Kegel balls. The lightest models are made from silicone, ABS, or PVC (we favor silicone), as these are lightweight body-safe sex toy materials. The usual weight for beginner Ben Wa balls is about 20 grams or 0.7 ounces. The models made from stainless steel and glass tend to weigh more; there are also weighted Kegel balls made from silicone. The weight of the heaviest Ben Wa balls can go up to 110 grams or close to 3.88 ounces. How to Use Kegel Balls? We have a complete guide on how to choose kegel balls, so here is a quick guide on how to use these. Please note that you can use these in different ways for different results, and here is how to get a targeted pelvic floor muscle workout: Wash the balls, dry them, and get some water-based lube Lie on your back, apply lube to the balls and yourself, and slowly push the balls into the vagina Once these are comfortably inside, tighten the pelvic floor muscles, lifting and squeezing the balls Hold the muscles contracted for about 5 seconds, then release and relax for 5 seconds Repeat about 5 times in a row, but don’t do more than 20 times per day. Please consider your experience when using geisha balls, as it is possible to over-train your Kegel muscles and then feel discomfort, which can do more harm than good. So, we prepared the following guidelines for using geisha balls based on experience level: Beginners should only use the Kegel balls lying down and should try to keep the muscles contracted for 5-10 seconds, relax, and repeat until you feel the muscles starting to strain, or about 15-20 repetitions a day. Intermediate users can wear the Kegel balls for about 10 minutes at a time, and they can stand up and move with them if they are comfortable that the balls won’t slip out. They can also try doing some light stuff with them to feel the muscle contractions. Experienced users or women with very strong Kegel muscles should not have any issues with wearing & holding the Kegel balls in the vagina while moving around with them, doing chores, or even going out of the house with them. They can wear the Kegel balls for up to 6 hours a day. Using the Kegel balls during playtime can significantly increase arousal and improve the intensity and frequency of your orgasms, as this helps increase the vagina’s sensitivity. Here is how to add love balls to your playtime. Start by using your clean Kegel balls and some water-based lube. One way is to insert the geisha balls into the vagina before you go on date night; you can include your partner in the insertion process. As you move, the balls will press on the vaginal walls, and as your body tries to hold them inside, the more aroused you’ll become. Make sure you take out the balls before you insert something else in the vagina, like a dildo, a vibrator, or your partner’s penis. Another way is to insert the Kegel balls into the vagina and then proceed to have anal sex. It does not have to involve full anal penetration, but you can use a butt plug or even anal beads to enhance the pleasure and push the Ben Wa balls against the G-spot for intense pleasure. The Bottom Line We hope our guide on how to measure for Kegel balls was helpful and that you’ll consider expanding your sexual horizons and adding these little pleasure balls to your sex toy chest. But we also have a lot more educational and helpful guides in our blog that can help you learn how to choose and how to use different sex toys.

Any couple finds long-distance relationships challenging in many ways, but sexual intimacy tops this list. But technological advancements today provide a solution, and their name is app-controlled sex toys. These provide a solution for couples who have to be physically separated but still want to engage in fulfilling shared sexual experiences. On top of bridging the gap for engaging in mutual sexy time when apart, braver couples can also use app-controlled sex toys to discretely play in public. Let’s discuss how app-controlled toys work and how you can use these to enhance your long-distance relationship and even play in public without anyone being the wiser. What Are App-Controlled Sex Toys? App-controlled sex toys are all sex toys that you can operate and control remotely via a suitable smartphone app. You can find different models that can vibrate, thrust, pulsate, suck, and stroke, all controllable via an appropriate app. The appeal is the option to adjust and customize the functions via the app, allowing you to give control to your partner and put them in charge of your pleasure. Sounds appealing? Yes, we think so, too, and we love the fantastic interactive options these provide. Shop All App-Controlled Sex Toys ===COLLECTION=== Why Use Teledildonics? Often, people try long-distance relationships, but they ultimately fail because of the lack of intimacy and scheduled meets via phone or video. It creates a gap because the efforts usually clash with everyday tasks, and couples tend to drift apart and look for close contact elsewhere, as Whatsapp, Skype, and Facetime don’t cut it anymore. Cue teledildonics. Teledildonic devices provide a way to bridge the gap between long-distance couples, and these give a new, exciting, fun way to keep a relationship alive. Several prominent adult toy companies like Lovense, Lelo, Satisfyer, OhMiBod, We-Vibe, and Kiiroo, with an excellent range of toys optimized for various uses, are at the forefront of teledildonic devices. Most of these toys are optimized for synchronized intimacy and shared playtime, as some sync to a mobile app that allows remote control via a smartphone. Other toys also have a built-in feature that, on top of using these alone, allows synchronizing the two toys, allowing them to respond to the other toy’s actions. One example is the option for synchronization between a masturbation sleeve and a G-spot vibe, allowing the two partners to simultaneously enjoy sensations without fuss. Teledildonics in Porn In the interest of covering all the bases, we have to mention that teledildonic devices have found their place in porn. While not all new porn productions are focused on toys, nor are they interactive, there is a category of interactive porn content. There are adult stars with whom you can interact directly and, using teledildonics, be in control of the stimulation and their pleasure. An example is the option to partake in the show, provided you have a compatible interactive device: you can control the speed and depth of the stimulation of the teledildonic device used by the entertainer while simultaneously enjoying your pleasure. Shop Interactive Masturbators ===COLLECTION=== How to Choose a Teledildonic Toy? If you are a beginner in shopping for sex toys, you are in luck, as here we’ll outline all the important features to know when you are choosing a teledildonic toy. Our experts shared the basics, and we’ve compiled these into a list that you can use as a checklist when browsing sex toy options: Design – when we discuss the design of the teledildonic toys, we need to outline that there are five different categories of such toys, and you can select one or more that fit your fancy, like: Masturbator sleeves – known as strokers, the masturbation sleeves are for guys, as they wrap around the penis and stimulate a blow job or masturbation. The teledildonic masturbation sleeves are app-controlled, feature different vibrations and suction modes, and some even have a c-ring that can contract for extra stimulation. Rabbit vibrators – the rabbit vibrator has an internal and external stimulating arm, and the ladies can use it for dual stimulation. The teledildonic rabbit vibes go a step further and allow you to use your rabbit vibe but have your partner control the action remotely or sync it with another device and use it simultaneously. Wearable vibrators – from the many wearable vibrators, the remote-control and teledildonic vibrators are insertable into the vagina or can be attached to the underwear. The advanced models allow smartphone app control, letting your long-distance partner initiate the vibrations. Butt plugs – besides the manual and remote-controlled butt plugs, there are teledildonic butt plugs that you can wear and have your partner control the vibrations in the rectum and the perineum. Material – the next thing you need to look at is the materials of the teledildonic device. The toys for women are usually made from silicone, while the male toys can be made from silicone or TPE. Connectivity – when it comes to connectivity, the teledildonic toys today all feature Bluetooth connectivity and app synchronization, letting you control them over the Internet. Please make sure the interactive teledildonic device you get is compatible with your smartphone, and read the instructions to see how to connect it to the app and use the sync feature. Also, engage the do-not-disturb option on your smartphone to avoid distractions when you use your teledildonic sex toy. Safety – when we talk about safety, we must say that all sex toys are safe if you use them correctly. That said, you need to be careful when inserting toys that are too big for you, and always use compatible lube. Also, make sure you wash and maintain your sex toys as indicated by the manufacturer, as if done inappropriately, you can severely damage the toy and even cause physical harm. App-Controlled Sex Toy Features Most of the app-controlled sex toys come with features that are common across all models, whether these are vibrating panties, G-spot vibes, and even interactive male strokers. Apart from the primary function as an adult toy for sexual pleasure, the app-controlled toys come with these features: Bluetooth antenna – all of the app-controlled sex toys use Bluetooth technology to connect to the mobile device. Using this technology allows the toy to connect to the mobile device via the app, which in turn allows short-range and long-distance control. It makes it ideal for people in long-distance relationships who want to keep the romance and sexual energy alive. Mobile app – control over these toys is done via the mobile app, as you need to download and install the suitable app on your device (smartphone or tablet). Most of these apps enable you to control and adjust the speed, intensity, and patterns, while some even come with customization options and sync the features to music, which allows you and your partner to have a more immersive experience. Toy Pairing – Many of the advanced features of mobile apps allow interactive connectivity with other toys. By pairing your interactive toy with another suitable model, the toys react in response to each other, and both partners get to experience a more immersive experience, even if they are not in the same room. Playing in Public with App-Controlled Sex Toys Now let’s look at the other main benefit of the app-controlled sex toys – you can use these to discretely play in public. Here are some of the ways you can use these adult toys for playful and adventurous experiences: Discreet design – most of the app-controlled sex toys are designed with discretion in mind. Think about wearable vibrating eggs, panty vibes, and app-controlled anal toys – these have discreet designs that allow you to wear them in public without anyone noticing. Controlled playtime – because the app-controlled sex toys are controlled via the mobile app, it is effortless for one partner to secretly control the action. It means that you can engage in some sexy time when you are at a restaurant, at a concert, when you travel, and even when you are at work if you are so naughty. Imagine the thrilling experience of being on the receiving end of sexual stimulation in a public place without anyone knowing what’s going on. Control – using an app-controlled sex toy is also intricately linked to control and power dynamics. One partner holds the power over the sexual pleasure of the other partner, and they dictate when, how, and how much sensations the receiving partner will get. It is especially apt for couples where one partner wants to have heightened control over the sensations and wants their partner to learn to control their responses to stimulation. Anticipation and suspense – one of the key benefits of using an app-controlled sex toy in public is the building of anticipation, as you won’t know when your partner will engage the vibrations or adjust the intensity. It creates a deep sense of suspense, which many couples find exciting. Increased trust between the partners – using these toys in public also requires a great deal of trust between the partners, which is similar to using app-controlled sex toys in long-distance relationships. You and your partner both have to be comfortable and open with each other to really let go and enjoy yourselves. There are always boundaries that you should never cross, and you must be responsible when using an app-controlled sex toy in a public space. Key App-Controlled Sex Toy Considerations As we outlined above, using app-controlled sex toys has possibilities that are exciting and intriguing for many. But there are some practical considerations to keep in mind: Consent – even if you are in a committed, long-term relationship with your partner, you need to openly communicate your desires, comfort levels, and the boundaries you are both willing to reach. Always give/get consent, especially when you plan to engage in sexual plays in a public place, as you need to be comfortable and aware of the involved risks. Security – always take precautions when using an app-controlled sex toy for long-distance control, as there is always the concern of hacking. So, we recommend you only stick to reputable apps that have high-level security measures to protect user data. Consider using models from LELO, KIIROO, Lovense, and We-Vibe, as we found these to be highly reliable manufacturers. Legal ramifications – while there is nothing wrong with using your app-controlled sex toys in long-distance relationships, using these in public is not strictly legal. There are strict public indecency laws in many places, so keep this in mind and use these in moderation. The Bottom Line Many app-controlled sex toys provide innovative and exciting ways to boost intimacy and explore new dimensions of pleasure between partners, especially for people in long-distance relationships. These enable real-time interaction, long-distance control, and even pairing with compatible devices, which can help couples get creative. Use these responsibly, and if you decide to engage in sexual explorations in a public area, please be aware of the possible legal issues. Also, as technology advances, we can expect more and more interactive and high-tech sex toys that will provide almost limitless options for enhanced sexual experiences. Before we let you go, we wish to invite you to browse our sex toy store where we have an excellent offer of app-controlled and interactive sex toys, as well as vibrators, dildos, sex toys for men, anal sex toys, BDSM toys, sexy lingerie, and all the essentials you need for better sex.

Sex toys come in many materials, and every one of these materials has its specifications and composition. Some may cause irritations and even allergies, but the materials don’t cause infections. Instead, yeast infection, which is the most common vaginal infection, is not directly caused by sex toy use, although it can be closely related to it. Here, we’ll discuss the causes of yeast infections, and we’ll discuss the relationship between STIs and sex toys. What Causes a Yeast Infection? Most infections are caused by germs in the body; in this case, we will discuss yeast infections. A yeast infection is a fungal infection that primarily attacks women; it is the overgrowth of the yeast Candida Albicans, which lives naturally on the body, called candidiasis. It causes severe itching, burning, and irritation of the vulva and the vaginal opening. It causes thick, white vaginal discharge, which can smell different from usual. Candida is not an STD! Still, around ¾ of the female population can or will suffer from this infection at some point in their lives. Sometimes, young pre-puberty girls get Candida, and often, before they get their period, the Candida production increases; pregnant women are likely to develop a yeast infection. The yeast infection occurs because of a change in the natural PH levels of the vagina. There isn’t much information about why and how it appears. Some researchers connect it to unsafe sex, but it is also common in persons who have compromised immune systems, and their bodies can spontaneously develop the infection. The Candida fungi or their spores can live on many surfaces for a prolonged period. Thus, you can quickly note the possibility of transferring the fungi to sensitive and gentle areas and causing the infection. Sex Toy Materials & Yeast Infections The material of the sex toy plays a role in the possible transference of Candida. It relates to the surface of the material – if the surface is smooth and non-porous, there is no way for the germs to remain and cause further infection. However, if you use a sex toy made from porous materials, the tiny pores can capture germs and cause later infections. That is why we always recommend you use sex toys that are made from body-safe, non-porous materials like silicone, glass, or stainless steel, as these are easier to clean. Some can be washed in the dishwasher and thoroughly disinfected. Try to stay from the cheapest materials, like jelly and low-grade TPE, as these are porous materials. It won’t matter how much you clean them, as the surface pores can be a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and yeasts. Shop Sex Toy Cleaners ===COLLECTION=== Clean Sex Toys Before and After Use If a person has a yeast infection and uses a sex toy, the infection can be transmitted to the toy’s surface and stay there for a long time if the toy is not cleaned correctly. That is why we always recommend you wash your sex toys thoroughly and make sure to do occasional deep sanitizations to ensure you remove all residue from their surfaces and avoid spreading any possible germs. While you can use soap and warm water for most materials, many sex toy cleaning products provide an extra level of disinfection of your sex toys. The safe storage of sex toys is another important thing you should note. Sticking your toy in a bedside drawer makes it easy to have it within easy reach. However, this is not very advisable, as you can unknowingly transfer germs to the storage area where you keep your sex toys. We always recommend you use suitable sex toy storage bags that you can occasionally wash and disinfect. Please note that you should not store different sex toy materials together: always read the product description to learn how to clean and store your particular sex toy. Because a yeast infection can get transferred from one person to another, we always recommend you not share your sex toys with other people. Can a Vibrator Cause a Yeast Infection? Vibrators are the sex toys that women mostly use, and yeast infection is the most common infection of the vagina. While the vibrator itself is not likely to cause a yeast infection, it can be the cause of infection if the vibrator is not cleaned correctly. Vibrators that are not correctly stored or cleaned can be the reason for infection, and they can catch and transmit bacteria and fungi spores on their surface, so be careful with your toys and body. Clean your sex toys following the manufacturer’s instructions and ensure you store them in a clean place. Can a Dildo Cause a Yeast Infection? The dildo, like other sex toys, can’t cause a yeast infection by itself, as fungi cause yeast infection. However, unsafe storage and improper cleaning can cause the transfer of the Candida fungus and cause a yeast infection. So, again, please be mindful of cleaning your dildo after and before use and storing it in a clean environment.

Buying a sex toy is very straightforward if you are an adult. But, there are rules when you are a young person, and you want to purchase a sex toy – you have to be over 18 years old to be able to buy a sex toy. While there are ways you can circumnavigate the age restrictions, these are in place for user safety and abiding by the law. Why Follow Age Restrictions when Buying a Sex Toy? Generally, underage people (people under 18 years of age) aren’t allowed to enter a brick-and-mortar sex shop and purchase a dildo, a vibrator, or another sex toy. However there are ways you can buy a sex toy online, but the sellers who don’t respect the age stipulation usually lack moral rules and standards. We don’t recommend you visit unlicensed sex stores, as these may also lack proper licenses and carry products that are not safe. We also urge you to be careful; don’t try to buy a product for the sake of buying, but be aware that you have a real risk of getting harmed by low-grade products. There are many different views on this topic, but the most important one is the safety of people using sex toys like a dildo or a vibrator. It is usual for young people to explore their bodies and sexuality; however, they are sometimes impatient to turn 18 and be able to legally shop at adult stores. With age, you become more aware and learn about your body, sexual preferences, and possibilities. Once you have some experience, you can easily find a dildo or a vibrator that would suit your body and your needs. How to Purchase a Sex Toy Legally? It is prevalent for young people to explore their sexuality. Young girls usually use their hands to masturbate, but they often reach for everyday items around their rooms, even using electric toothbrushes and other unsuitable items. Using such objects can be potentially harmful, for the risk of infection, even more severe health problems, or long-term damage to their bodies. Sometimes, young people get help from their parents, and if the parents are open and communicate clearly with their children, they can guide them in the right direction. It is not rare for moms to be willing to buy a beginner-friendly sex toy for their daughters for the right reason, like preventing them from using inadequate objects for sexual pleasure or using poor-quality sex toys. Also, some parents are buying sex toys for their sons as a way to introduce them to safe sex and skip their use of inappropriate objects (think American Pie). We’ll conclude this post by noting that there is no universally accepted age when young people should start their sexual exploration, but the usually taken age of late teens has worked for ages. Still, some people mature earlier than others, so the general rule is for people to be over 18 to be able to buy a dildo, a vibrator, or another sex toy! Please note that our sex toy store is a legal, licensed and law-abiding store where we follow all the legal stipulations and only carry sex toys from reputable brands.

Let’s talk about teledildonics, a term that is becoming commonplace in the adult toy industry. It refers to controlling sex toys over the Internet. The term, first appearing in the early 1970s, is used to refer to remote sexual activity using technology, and it has now become regularly used to describe remote sex or remote manual masturbation, which we believe is a more apt description. Here, our experts will talk more about buying and using teledildonic toys. What is Teledildonics? Teledildonics is a term with broad meaning, and in its simplest definition, it refers to high-tech sex toys that are operated remotely. These use the Internet to transfer tactile sensations between the participants; in other words, teledildonics are sex toys that are operated via an app and Bluetooth connectivity. There are various app-controlled vibrators oriented towards female users and interactive toys for the guys. The term derives from a sci-fi book, where it referred to virtual sexual activity, but it has evolved to mean so much more. It was initially used concerning using robotic sex toys or computer-controlled sex toys. We have to mention that teledildonics is used interchangeably with cyberdildonics, and both terms are better suited to describe app-controlled sex toys. Today, we have seen a surge of advanced sex toys that use high-tech features and allow a more immersive sexual experience. It brings exciting advances in the sex toy industry; what began as sending and receiving vibrations through a gaming console has now evolved into a way of connecting people in real time in an intimate way. Shop Teledildonic Sex Toys ===COLLECTION=== Why Use Teledildonics? Often, people try long-distance relationships, but they ultimately fail because of the lack of intimacy and scheduled meets via phone or video. It creates a gap because the efforts usually clash with everyday tasks, and couples tend to drift apart and look for close contact elsewhere, as Whatsapp, Skype, and Facetime don’t cut it anymore. Cue teledildonics. Teledildonic devices provide a way to bridge the gap between long-distance couples, and these give a new, exciting, fun way to keep a relationship alive. Several prominent adult toy companies like Lovense, Lelo, Satisfyer, OhMiBod, We-Vibe, and Kiiroo, with an excellent range of toys optimized for various uses, are at the forefront of teledildonic devices. Most of these toys are optimized for synchronized intimacy and shared playtime, as some sync to a mobile app that allows remote control via a smartphone. Other toys also have a built-in feature that, on top of using these alone, allows synchronizing the two toys, allowing them to respond to the other toy’s actions. One example is the option for synchronization between a masturbation sleeve and a G-spot vibe, allowing the two partners to simultaneously enjoy sensations without fuss. [Image of diagram illustrating how app-controlled sex toys connect via smartphone] Teledildonics in Porn In the interest of covering all the bases, we have to mention that teledildonic devices have found their place in porn. While not not all new porn productions are focused on toys, nor are they interactive, there is a category of interactive porn content. There are adult stars with whom you can interact directly and, using teledildonics, be in control of the stimulation and their pleasure. An example is the option to partake in the show, provided you have a compatible interactive device: you can control the speed and depth of the stimulation of the teledildonic device used by the entertainer while simultaneously enjoying your pleasure. Shop Interactive Masturbators ===COLLECTION=== How to Choose a Teledildonic Toy? If you are a beginner in shopping for sex toys, you are in luck, as here we’ll outline all the important features to know when you are choosing a teledildonic toy. Our experts shared the basics, and we’ve compiled these into a list that you can use as a checklist when browsing sex toy options: Design – when we discuss the design of the teledildonic toys, we need to outline that there are five different categories of such toys, and you can select one or more that fit your fancy, like: Masturbator sleeves – known as strokers, the masturbation sleeves are for guys, as they wrap around the penis and stimulate a blow job or masturbation. The teledildonic masturbation sleeves are app-controlled, feature different vibrations and suction modes, and some even have a c-ring that can contract for extra stimulation. Rabbit vibrators – the rabbit vibrator has an internal and external stimulating arm, and the ladies can use it for dual stimulation. The teledildonic rabbit vibes go a step further and allow you to use your rabbit vibe but have your partner control the action remotely or sync it with another device and use it simultaneously. Wearable vibrators – from the many wearable vibrators, the remote-control and teledildonic vibrators are insertable into the vagina or can be attached to the underwear. The advanced models allow smartphone app control, letting your long-distance partner initiate the vibrations. Butt plugs – besides the manual and remote-controlled butt plugs, there are teledildonic butt plugs that you can wear and have your partner control the vibrations in the rectum and the perineum. Material – the next thing you need to look at is the materials of the teledildonic device. The toys for women are usually made from silicone, while the male toys can be made from silicone or TPE. Connectivity – when it comes to connectivity, the teledildonic toys today all feature Bluetooth connectivity and app synchronization, letting you control them over the Internet. Please make sure the interactive teledildonic device you get is compatible with your smartphone, and read the instructions to see how to connect it to the app and use the sync feature. Also, engage the do-not-disturb option on your smartphone to avoid distractions when you use your teledildonic sex toy. Safety – when we talk about safety, we must say that all sex toys are safe if you use them correctly. That said, you need to be careful when inserting toys that are too big for you, and always use compatible lube. Also, make sure you wash and maintain your sex toys as indicated by the manufacturer, as if done inappropriately
