We've been joyously Jacking and Jilling - solo and together - for many years. Our very first sex toys were actually Xmas gifts to one another. I gave her a soft, pink jelly dildo and she gave me my first soft, pink jelly masturbation sleeve. Because we were both passionate masturbators before we met (or married), sex toys were just a delightful addition to our total experiences. Before long, we accumulated such a collection of things that we had to go to individual "toy boxes." At one point, here's what we had in our individual collections.
Mine - two different jelly sleeves; one smooth, one ribbed. A latex sleeve with a vibrator and double-walled construction (mineral oil in between layers so you could warm it up). A slender, gently-ribbed latex anal probe about 3/4" in diameter; the kind that would slip over the end of a bullet vibe. A cheap plastic rectal vibe (the kind where you sort of lock-down on the small diameter and it stays inserted). A few ultra-thin condoms; just for variety in sensation. And of course, Astroglide lube.
Hers - medium-sized pink jelly dildo, larger thick red strawberry scented jelly dildo, long 12" latex dildo (the kind that looks like it has a police baton handle), a vibrator with multiple pulse pattern settings, a rabbit vibe (with clit tickler and rotating shaft), and the pride of her collection, an Eroscillator. Google it.
As time passed, our tastes would change, and cheap toys would burn-out. We invested in a swing and it was one of the best things we ever bought. Worth every penny.
These days, we're down to just two; her Eroscillator and my Hot Octopuss Pulse ll. You can Google that, too. Great male toy.
Adventurous couples that really enjoy self-pleasure understand the value of sex toys. If it's fun, if it makes you feel good, if it gets you off, it's worth it.
So, what's in YOUR toy box?
