In an intimate, loving lesbian relationship, lesbian sex toys can add a pleasurable and exciting level to lovemaking. There is an incredible range of toys available for any couple, but among lesbian couples, the strap-on dildo is perhaps one of the most popular, though some find it a bit of a daunting item to bring into the bedroom initially. For lesbians who desire the sensation of penetration, however, the strap-on can be an exceptionally exciting and endlessly rewarding toy, and can bring a great level of contact to sex.

Strap on dildos come in many different styles, but the first and most important part to take into consideration is the harness. Essentially, any dildo with a flared base can be turned into a strap-on with the use of a harness. Harnesses are made from several different materials, leather being the most common. Leather is most comfortable against the skin, and though it cannot be disinfected, keeping it clean and polished will provide the wearer with a lifetime of sexy fun. Harnesses are also available in nylon, fabric, and vinyl; the fabrics are, of course, machine washable, and vinyl is easily cleaned with soap and water.

Harnesses come in a few different styles, the choice of which depends on the user’s personal taste and which is most comfortable. The G-string style has a single strap between the legs, often providing direct pressure to the genitals during use, which some people enjoy, others do not. This style provides more control than the two-strap harness, which is built more like a jock strap, with two straps running around the buttocks, making for a better fit adjustment. The G-string style is generally considered an easier choice for beginners. Thigh harnesses wrap around the leg, and can be worn by both partners for simultaneous penetration. Also for dual penetration, a double dildo compatible harness is available.

Using a strap-on dildo takes some practice, as it becomes like a new and awkward appendage. Some women may feel self-conscious with the thing dangling between their legs for the first time, but wearing it around the house alone at first may help. The most important part in using a strap-on dildo for the first time in a lesbian relationship is communication. Loving partners can easily get past the awkwardness of the first use together. Plenty of water based lubricant should be used on the dildo, and it is a good idea to penetrate gently with fingers first before charging in with the dildo. A good, consistent pace should be found during the act, again, with good communication between partners.

A strap-on dildo can being an exciting new expression into the bedroom for lesbian couples. With the endless range of styles and sizes, any couple can completely customize this intimate experience, and bring a whole new adventure into lovemaking.

Whether you are new or experienced in the use of lesbian sex toys you may be surprised by the amount of choice that is now available on the current market. No longer are lesbian sex toys merely associated with strap ons and doubled ended dildos, although these types of products are still a popular choice amongst the lesbian community.

Strap ons in their traditional guise consist of a dildo that is attached to a harness that is worn around the waist and thighs similar to a pair of briefs. The harness is sometimes supplied with a number of O ring attachments so that if the dildo is detachable, it can easily be replaced with another one that has a different girth measurement. Although these strap ons are still a fashionable choice, there are now a number of different alternatives available. Strap ons now come with wireless and wired multispeed vibrators available as an alternative to dildos. A more recent development is the strapless strap on, either with or without vibration, which as the name suggests, does not include any harness or strapping, but instead comes with a bulbous shaped protrusion which can be inserted into either the anus or the vagina and allows for simultaneous pleasure to both partners.

Double ended dildos or double enders, come in the form of the conventional dildo but are considerably longer which allows for double penetration. Usually in the form of jelly dildos to ensure more easy insertion and better flexibility, double enders are also available with variable speed vibrating action and come in a selection of different lengths and girths depending on personal preference.

Love eggs and pleasure balls can be used in either the vagina or the anus. Either elliptical or circular in shape, these adult toys usually have a soft outer coating, sometimes with a nodular surface, and contain internal steel balls. Once inserted, the constant rolling motion can cause extensive pleasure to the user. Often coming as two balls or eggs connected by a sturdy Nylon cord, these sex toys can be used for sole pleasure or by both partners synchronously. Love eggs and pleasure balls also act an effective pelvic floor toner and exerciser, particularly post childbirth or menopause.

Butterfly sex toys or butterfly stimulators are worn as you would do a pair of briefs but there is one significant difference: they have built a built in vibrating action that stimulates the clitoris. This form of clit stimulator sometimes comes with a small penis plug that is inserted into the vagina for simultaneous vaginal and clitoral stimulation. Clitoral massagers or pumps provide multispeed vibrations to the erogenous zone by causing an increased blood flow to the labia and vaginal area.

Adult toys for lesbians do not just come if the form of products that aim to exhilarate the clitoris, labia, vagina or anus. Female sex pumps can, in most cases, be used on the clitoris and the breasts. By using a hand pump and placing the suction cup over the breasts and nipples a tight vacuum is created thereby generating intense sensations. Some pumps also come with multispeed vibrating action built in to provide additional stimulation.

There are also a considerable number of female sex enhancement products available which intensify female intimate responses whether it is for the nipples, female g-spot or clitoris. With all this in mind, there are a significantly higher number of options available for lesbians today than in previous decades that cater for all budgets and come in a range of different styles, sizes and colours.
