Sexual pleasure and exploration are essential aspects of the human experience, and it’s important for you as an individual to recognise that these desires are not limited to any specific gender.
There is still a ridiculous stigma surrounding men using sex toys, so if you do feel an element of shame when you feel tempted to buy male sex toys, then it is easy to understand why…however, in this article, we’re going to outline all the reasons why this stigma is not only patronising and insulting, but dangerous as well.
Been thinking about getting a male sex toy but terrified about what people may think? Read on and we’ll tell you everything you need to know…
Enhancing Solo Pleasure
First of all, sex toys can provide unique sensations and intensify pleasure during solo play. If you already masturbate once a day or several times a week, why not make it all the more pleasurable by throwing some toys and accessories into the mix?
Men can use toys like masturbators, prostate massagers, or vibrating rings to explore new sensations and achieve heightened orgasms.
Guys want to have fun too – as well you should.
Expanding Sexual Repertoire
Introducing sex toys into the bedroom can be very exciting, while exposing you to a variety of new sexual experiences.
Toys like couples’ vibrators, penis rings, or remote-controlled toys can enhance pleasure and create new avenues for pleasure exploration with your partner – or indeed by yourself.
Addressing Performance Anxiety
Sex toys can alleviate performance anxiety by providing a stress-free alternative or to complement your sexual encounters. For example, if your partner struggles to achieve orgasm through penetrative sex, you can wear a penis ring to stimulate her clitoris, which can add a whole new dynamic to your relationship – whilst enhancing your own personal pleasure as well.
Exploring New Sensations
Sex toys can introduce men to sensations they may otherwise never have experienced. The notion that straight men shouldn’t be able to enjoy anal stimulation is utterly ridiculous. Like it or not, some of men’s most intense and pleasurable erogenous zones are tucked away in your anus so forget what other people think and enjoy yourself.
Toys designed for prostate stimulation, such as prostate massagers, can offer unique pleasure and potentially lead to even more intense orgasms.
Go on! Treat yourself.
Promoting Sexual Health
Regular sexual activity, including the use of sex toys, can contribute to better sexual health and overall well-being. For example, there are many toys like penis pumps or stamina rings that can help improve erectile function, enhance blood flow, and maintain sexual health.
That, and using male sex toys whilst letting go of any negative stigma attached to them can empower you to feel more confidence in your own skin.
Encouraging Open Communication
Additionally, the use of sex toys can help to foster open communication and trust between partners.
By discussing and incorporating toys into the bedroom, it can lead to deeper conversations about your personal desires, boundaries, and indeed pleasure, thus creating a more fulfilling sexual relationship.
And by the way: if you breach the subject with your partner and you are met with rejection and ridicule, remember that it is their problem – not yours. In which case, it may be worth re-evaluating your relationship.
Normalising Male Sexual Pleasure
You must embrace the use of sex toys! In doing so, you and your fellow men can help challenge societal norms and break down gender stereotypes.
Normalising male sexual pleasure encourages a more inclusive and sex-positive culture, where everyone’s desires and experiences are celebrated – as opposed to ridiculed.
The fact is, the ridiculous notion that suggests male sex toys are “disgusting” and “creepy” completely contradicts what it means to be a feminist. So, should you encounter any negativity along the way, be sure to let them know that they are wrong.
