3 Commonly Misunderstood Sex Toys

Throughout the ages a selection of adult toys has been misused. Mainly, this was due to use without proper knowledge. A common mistake is just assuming how things work without checking! To ensure sexual safety and body safety, here are a few of the mistakes in horny history.

Anal Toys

Perhaps the most common toys that have people making embarrassing trips to the emergency department are anal toys. You'll be surprised how often this actually happens. This is important to know in case of the worst-case scenario, go to the hospital asap, they see similar or worse situations all the time!

This is referring to toys becoming stuck in people's backsides. This happens for a couple reasons, the first coming from not respecting the base of the toy. The designs of anal toys should always feature some sort of buffer to prevent insertion reaching uncomfortable depths. However, when people get especially kinky, they may begin to insert the toy deeper and once inserted too deeply the design is likely to work against you. Instead the base will prevent the extraction of the toy and the toy is now left wandering the vast expanse of the void. This can be avoided by simply purchasing a longer toy, if you notice your desire has proceeded your current toy. Either remember the limitations of things or consider a longer toy.

The second reason anal play can go wrong is from the absence of lubricant. Generally, initial insertion had adequate lubricant and the toy was inserted fine. However, after time the lubricant has gradually evaporated, trickled away or been absorbed. Now the toy has almost dried in place, this usually happens with longer toys that need to keep the entire toy lubricated. In the midst of passion, it might seem boring to reapply lubricant but it is necessary! Basically, you don't want to be faced with a King Arthur removal situation.

Cock Rings

A trend in cock ring reviews go something like "was great, but pretty difficult to put on!" In summary, cock rings are meant to be put on whilst flaccid! They are usually stretchy enough to put on whilst erect, but this will be uncomfortable, require more lube than necessary and will take some time to negotiate. Not exactly ideal during foreplay. So, take a minute to prepare, assemble before arousal!

Other reviews will sometimes complain about a toy being too loose or too small. These reviews always refer to three ring sets like the Optimale 3 above. All of these rings have different uses and will loop around different parts of the penis. The smallest ring will only loop around the shaft, the second will only go around the balls and the third will loop around both! If you're finding a ring too big or too small there's a possibility, you're using the wrong ring!

All BDSM Toys

This isn't actually referring to the use of BDSM toys. I would say those that are in the BDSM community are actually some of the most knowledgeable and safe users of sex toys around. Why? Because the toys they use require more knowledge around function, sexual communication and safety. Obviously, there's concepts such as pain involved, so anyone's threshold should never be crossed.

The misunderstanding here is to do with the misconceptions surrounding BDSM desires. Especially from people who only enjoy vanilla sex, they like to attribute the use of BDSM toys to some sort of psychological problem. This is nowhere near the truth! BDSM desires are the same as anything, except the methods they employ to achieve sexual satisfaction is quite different. The point is whether you sit on the vanilla side of the spectrum or a basement dedicated to BDSM sessions side of the spectrum. You want to feel comfortable with your own needs and desires. Being sexually satisfied is healthy, relationships that accommodate to each other's fantasies, or at least make the effort to understand them last longer! Sometimes fantasies are just something your mind likes the idea of, but isn't something you actually want to happen!

Otherwise, it might be a case of finding a different sized ring. If unsure about this, our customer service team can guide you in the right direction.
