According to a poll of 1,700 people, 46% of those surveyed are looking to up the ante with their sex lives (SWNS Digital). If this sounds familiar, then there’s an easy solution: kinky toys. You and your partner can easily increase your mutual pleasure while having fun, but you need to familiarize yourself with safe kinky toy use, as this keeps everyone safe and stimulated.

Part of these kinky toy safety tips includes cleaning your devices. This works to prevent the spread of STDs and other bloodborne pathogens. Other issues with sex toys are the materials they’re made from, as some may contain harmful materials such as PVC with high levels of phthalates.

Since you’re using these toys in one of the most delicate parts of your body, it’s more important than ever to take all precautions while still having fun. Here’s how.

What Are Kinky Toys?

Kinky toys refer to any type of sexual device used with your partner or individuals during masturbation. These toys can enhance pleasure for both partners and are also ideal when masturbating. Couples looking to increase their intimacy or who want to embark upon responsible BDSM play can look into a variety of sex toys.

Some of these toys include:

• Cock rings
• Anal plugs
• Dildos
• Finger vibrators
• Rabbit vibrators

These are just a few of the available sex toys. No matter what you use, always elect something you and your partner and comfortable with, and be sure to familiarize yourself with safe practices before using to ensure responsible pleasure.

Finger Vibrators

These kinky sex toys essentially turn your fingers into dildos. Since these rings come in adjustable sizes, they work on a variety of hands. The ring’s “bullet” size determines how intense each finger dildo is, so keep this in mind.

For safe kinky toy use, look for anything that’s made of inert material such as silicone. This reduces the incidence of being exposed to toxic materials in sex toys, including phthalates and BPA, especially since they’re linked to cancer and reproductive issues.

Always clean your finger vibrator after use, and remember to use lubricant beforehand. These dildos have a textured exterior and can feel a little harsh without some form of lubricant to aid in their comfort.

Traditional Dildos

Regular dildos are excellent for couples and anyone interested in upping their masturbation game. As with other sex toys, look for non-toxic materials. This includes silicone and borosilicate glass. After use, clean them to prevent the transfer of germs and bacteria (and STDs).

These dildos are a game changer as they recreate penetrative sex. They can be used vaginally or anally, making them a double-duty kinky toy.

There’s not much involved with using these sex toys and they’re ideal for anyone looking to avoid a sexual partner and instead engage in some individual fun. Some of these dildos even come with built-in vibrators for even more enhanced pleasure.

Rabbit Vibrators

Piggybacking off of traditional dildos are rabbit vibrators. These dildos have an extra component that essentially vibrates against the clitoris. This allows these vibrators to offer penetrative sex while stimulating the clitoris simultaneously, and come with a variety of settings and different speeds.

To safely use these vibrators, it’s best to build to your desired movement and speed, getting used to the sex toy’s sensations. Using the dildo’s pulsing end, place it inside of you. Slowly increase the settings until you find one that’s comfortable and pleasurable.

Since some of these dildos do the thrusting for you, you have the option of being hands-free when using them, further enhancing your experience.

Strap-On Dildos

Strap-ons are yet another type of dildo and a versatile sex toy. As the name suggests, these dildos are attached to a harness and worn around the crotch area. With these, you can enjoy penetrative sex with your partner in multiple positions.

As with other sex toys, look for safe materials, such as silicone, and clean your strap-on after use. Look for materials and sizes that work comfortably with your body and your partners. Start slowly when using these sex toys to ensure everyone is comfortable.

Use lube to help these sex toys slide easily. The best lube for silicone is a water-based lube.

Cock Rings

Cock rings, aka penis rings, are another excellent way of increasing stimulation while prolonging an erection. When used correctly, cock rings can enhance your sexual experience, delaying an orgasm for maximum pleasure.

Since these rings reduce how much blood flows out from the penis, they must be used with caution. For example, cock rings should never be too tight, and they should only be worn for a maximum of 30 minutes. Anything longer than that and these rings can become dangerous and lead to severe, permanent penile damage.

Always ensure your cock ring is the perfect fit by measuring your penis first. When in doubt, ask a professional about how to measure and the best size for your penis.

Anal Plugs

Anal plugs, also called “butt plugs,” are great for anyone looking to try something new. If you’re new to the world of anal play, you should always take things slow, possibly starting your journey with a lubed finger or training anal plugs. Just be sure to use plenty of lube.

The great thing about anal plugs is the sensation they offer. Those who enjoy these kinky toys like the sense of fullness they offer while simultaneously offering up stimulation.

Some even vibrate, further enhancing your experience. As with all sex toys, look for safe materials, including stainless steel, and always clean them after use.

It’s advisable not to use them for longer than 30 minutes at a time and avoid using any type of numbing cream.
