Edging. I’ve spoken about it so many times over the years, and even have it down as one of the aspects I assess sex toys on when I review them. It’s something I feel many people do naturally, like an instinct, and a method of pleasure I’ve shared with all of my sexual partners. But in speaking to new people recently, I’ve started to realise that not everyone knows what it is and how to do it. So, whether the term is unfamiliar or the technique itself has your mind boggled, I thought it was about time I formally introduced the topic and explained exactly what this edging thing is all about in my latest guide that I’m calling Edging 101!
Vaginal Tightness: Causes and Ways Forward
When I first bought the Tantus Vamp, an “average size” toy, at 18 years of age, I had no idea the path it would set me on. It was one of my very first dildos, and there was no doubt in my mind that I would love it. Yet inserting it was a difficult, painful experience, and eventually I had to admit defeat. As a baby reviewer, it was an embarrassing and confusing time. Why could all my peers enjoy this toy, but not me? It’s now been almost ten years since then, but still it influences every product I test and brand I work with. And with the recent rise of the indie fantasy maker, the industry’s tendency towards large toys has only grown, leaving me unable to find a single toy that would work for my experienced vagina in some stores. It’s getting real tiring, and I can’t help but worry about people out there like me. So today I wanted to share more on why that might be, and my recommendations on how to move forward.
Top 10 Sex Toys of 2023
As 2023 draws to a close and we begin to think about the upcoming year, let us first take a moment to look back on what an exciting time it has been for sex toys! Because whilst I can’t exactly post a full Spotify Wrapped-esque recap of the last twelve months, I can share my Top 10 Sex Toys of 2023. Now, while there have been a few recurring themes this year, overall it has been a time of variety. And this has been no clearer than in the price ranges of the items I have tried. I’ve reviewed some of the cheapest sex toys I’ve ever had the pleasure of testing, and some of the most expensive, yet the results have been surprising. Better yet, both large and small businesses have come across my desk, and I’m glad to say there is a nice mix of the two on this list. But I’d hate to give anything else away and spoil the fun, so without further ado, sit back and get cosy, as I revisit 2023, look at what’s ahead in 2024, and share my favourite sex toys of the year with you all!
Review Round-Up: Sex Toy Apps
This year I’ve already reviewed more app compatible sex toys than ever before, and we still have three months to go! Although as technology continues to become a vital part of our everyday lives, I suppose this is only to be expected. Until now I have included detailed guides on all apps I come across within my usual product reviews. But that isn’t working anymore. Firstly, the in-depth way I write my reviews doesn’t translate all that well to apps. Plus, since apps get updates that completely erase previous versions, there’s no point in having 500 words in a review from two years ago on an app that’s since been overhauled, even if the toy itself is still popular. So, from now on you can find all my thoughts on the world’s best adult apps right here at my sex toy app review round-up!
Beginner’s Guide to Sex Dolls
Whilst I regularly feature sex doll retailers at my website, the sad truth is that I do not review them. Living in a small apartment up until recently has always restricted the products I can purchase, and sex dolls are among the list of things I’d rather admire from afar. Of course, being a sex writer means that I still know a hell of a lot about them, and I regularly keep up with industry news to find out what new “lifelike” innovation is next. But with no actual resources regarding dolls on my website, I’ve never had anywhere to direct those with questions before. So for today’s new post I figured it was finally time to fix that and take a closer look at this weird and wonderful world with my very own Beginner’s Guide To Sex Dolls.
Top 10 Sex Toys of 2022
While 2022 has been another strange year to be a human being, it’s yet again been a terrific time for sex toys. The flourishing industry, which is rapidly growing and projected to be worth USD $62.32 billion by 2030, is an exciting place to be right now, and accordingly I reviewed more products over the last 12 months than ever before. But as much fun as I’ve had, the downside always comes this time of year when I have to choose which lucky few will make it on my annual Top 10 Sex Toys Of The Year. Looking back at the countless orgasms I’ve had (and I’ve helped others have) thanks to my line of work does perk me back up, of course, as does reflecting on the advances to sex toys that are made each year, not just from a technological and quality standpoint, but in regards to accessibility as well, to ensure everyone has the same right to enjoy these amazing products. So, without further ado, sit back as I revisit 2022, look at what’s ahead in 2023, and share my Top 10 Sex Toys of 2022 with you all.
