Which Sex Toy Material Is Safe for Women?

by ZhangBin 28 Mar 2022 0 Comments

You’re already careful about the foods you put in your body and the skincare items you put on your skin, but are you showing the same care with the materials your sex toys are made of? The good news is that sex toys can be made out of numerous materials, so there is truly something for everyone. The bad news is that the FDA doesn’t regulate the sex toy industry, which means you could easily get one that is made out of materials that are bad for you. But if you learn ahead of time which sex toy material is safe and which one isn’t, it becomes much easier to decide which one is best to use.

Porous Versus Non-Porous

The first thing to learn about sex toys is that some are porous while others are made out of non-porous materials. Simply put, if a sex toy is porous, then bacteria is more likely to grow on it. Although you don’t necessarily have to avoid porous sex toys, such as those made out of rubber, it is recommended that you always use a condom when using these types of toys. On the other hand, non-porous sex toys are smoother and their surface is water-resistant. Unlike porous sex toys, which cannot be properly sterilized, non-porous toys can be sterilized by using bleach or boiling water. You can also sterilize a non-porous sex toy by running it through a dishwasher.

What About Chemicals?

Unfortunately, sex toys are often made with certain chemicals in them. One of the chemicals that causes a great deal of concern is phthalate, which is used to make the plastic more flexible. If you get an inexpensive sex toy made out of rubber, phthalates are usually in there. But even if this material isn’t used to make a certain sex toy, there are others that are equally worrisome. These include the following:

  • Admium
  • Timethytin chloride
  • Phenol
  • Toluene
  • Carbon disulfide

These chemicals are so dangerous that they’ve been linked to type 2 diabetes, male fertility issues, and can even affect the fetuses and babies of pregnant or breastfeeding women. If you’re wondering if these chemicals are in your current sex toy, watch out for burning, itching, and rashes because these are signs that one or more of these chemicals could be in there. The good news is, when you’re shopping for a new toy, you can read on the back of the package to see if these chemicals are there, making it easy to avoid them in the end.

How else can you tell if a particular sex toy is made with unsafe materials? One easy way is to notice its smell. If the smell is very strong, this usually indicates that inexpensive or unsafe materials were used in the making of that toy. If your sex toy smells bad, it’s best to throw it away and get yourself another one.

Good Versus Bad Materials

Just like most other products available for purchase, sex toys can be made out of good materials or bad materials, and it’s up to you to know what material belongs in what category. Some of the best materials for sex toys include:

  • Silicone sex toys can be expensive, but they are very durable. They are made without any dangerous chemicals and are both more realistic and very easy to bend.
  • If you’re trying to strengthen your PC muscles and want a sex toy to increase the effectiveness of the exercises, choose a toy made out of lucite. It gives the toy a firm texture to make the exercises work better, and you can stick it in the dishwasher when you’re done.
  • Borosilicate glass. This type of glass is neither toxic nor porous, making it perfect for all types of sex toys. It’s also easy to clean because all you do is stick it in the dishwasher.
  • Stainless steel. Non-porous and attractive, stainless steel sex toys are great to look at and super easy to clean. They also tend to last a very long time.

On the other hand, it’s good to remember to avoid the following materials when shopping for sex toys:

  • PVC and vinyl. Both of these materials are inexpensive, which is why they are used so frequently, but they almost always contain phthalates. They are used because they make sex toys less expensive and softer.
  • Jelly contains phthalates and is used for the sole purpose of making the toy look more realistic.
  • This is a latex material that is often used in the making of dildos. It smells bad and can cause various allergic reactions, so you should always use a condom when using a rubber sex toy.

How to Avoid Trouble

Finding a great sex toy is not complicated if you know which materials to look for and which ones to avoid. There are all types of sex toys made out of all types of materials, including hands-free toys that double your pleasure and are waterproof, so you certainly have a lot of options available to you. It isn’t difficult to find a sex toy that is safe for women. The main thing to remember is to check out the information on the packaging to make sure nothing unsafe was used when it was being made, buy it from a reputable manufacturer, and make sure you get it from a reputable store.

If you’re in a sex toy shop, you can also ask the people who work there about a specific toy because they will know which toys are safe and which ones are less so. Of course, if you fall in love with a toy that is made out of jelly or rubber and you decide that you have to have it, just make sure the manufacturer is reputable and buy some condoms to use with it. Naturally, if it gives you any problems once you get it home, it’s a good idea to discard it and choose another sex toy. When it comes to sex toys, you can’t be too careful, but fortunately it’s easier than you think to end up with one that is safe, comfortable, and durable.

Best Sex Toy for Women

There’s little doubt that when it comes to sex toys for women, the market truly offers something for everyone. If you’ve been wanting to buy a sex toy but you’re not sure what’s out there, you’ve come to the right place. For starters, you should decide which body part you’d like to have stimulated. Some women just want to concentrate on the clitoris, while others want a toy that goes deep inside of them. Whatever your preferences are, choosing the best sex toy for women is a lot easier once you learn the differences between them. Below is a recap of some of the many types of sex toys available.

Dildos Versus Vibrators

Most women get some type of dildo or vibrator as their first sex toy. What’s the difference? Technically, a dildo is any sex toy that stimulates you, but today they’re associated with sex toys that are non-vibrating and which may or may not look like a real penis. On the other hand, vibrators are sex toys that vibrate because they use batteries. Both dildos and vibrators are made to stimulate various parts of the body. There are even anal dildos if that’s what you’re into. Both toys are made for G-spot stimulation and vaginal penetration, and they even come in different sizes.

Clitoral Massagers

Since three-fourths of all women need clitoral stimulation to achieve an orgasm, there is little wonder why clitoral massagers are one of the most popular sex toys on the market. There are smaller massagers called bullets that you can even use with a partner because they’re so small. In fact, clitoral massagers include large wand vibrators, bullets, and everything in between. Some even use suction devices and pulsing waves right around the clitoris to work their magic. To be sure, when you want a clitoral massager, you have a lot of them to choose from.

Combination Vibrators

One of the most popular types of vibrators these days is the rabbit, which is a combination internal vibrator and clit stimulator. The rabbit was made extremely popular by the television show Sex and the City, but that’s not the only reason women love it so much. You can use it to stimulate the G-spot and stimulate the clitoris at the same time, and the best part is, most of them are not very expensive. In most cases, you won’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on a rabbit because many of them can be purchased for less than $100.

Sex Toys for Other Body Parts

As you can imagine, there are also sex toys to stimulate other areas of the body. These include butt plugs, which come in various sizes and shapes and which are good for preparing for anal sex; anal beads, which are especially good for beginners at anal sex and stimulation; and even nipple clamps and handcuffs. But when we say “sex toys,” we’re usually referring to toys that stimulate the vagina or clitoris and which are made to enhance or bring on an orgasm. The truth is, sex toys come in so many different types that you shouldn’t have any trouble finding the one that’s perfect for you.

The New Wearable Vibrators

One of the most exciting developments in female sex toys is the new wearable vibrators. What are these? Simply put, they are clitoral or vaginal stimulators that you can wear without anyone knowing you’re wearing them! They provide you with a hands-free way to stimulate yourself anytime, anywhere. Because they are usually operated via a remote control, or even your own smartphone, you can control when, where, and how strong your orgasms are. Even better, your partner can also download the app and stimulate you whenever they feel the need, making for more spontaneous play.

Wearable vibrators are normally waterproof, and many of them heat up as well. The app is easy to download and to operate, and most of them come in various colors as well. These are high-quality, durable, and safe vibrators that will enhance your love life and which put you in control of what is happening “down there.” They are made out of materials that make it safe to use them in a variety of ways, and even better, your movement changes the type and intensity of the stimulation that you get. So, whether you’re walking, running, or jumping, you’ll get the exact type of simulation you love.

With wearable vibrators, you also get the ability to do your Kegel exercises and make them even more effective. You can recharge the vibrator at any time using a USB charger, and the size of the vibrator is just right – not too big and not too small. Usually made out of ultra-safe food-grade silicone, these vibrators are super comfortable and fit just right. Although others won’t know you’re wearing one, you’ll know what’s going on at all times because you’re the one in complete control – and you’ll love every minute of it!

How to Choose the Right Sex Toy

If you’re new to sex toys, you’ll want to make sure you start off small. Don’t choose anything too large or too powerful. Smaller and less powerful is always best, especially in the beginning. You’ll also want to decide which part of your body you prefer having stimulated. Different people enjoy different things in the bedroom, and whether you want something that you can use alone or with a partner, or even remotely, it’s there for you to enjoy. All you have to do is research what’s available and you’ll quickly come up with a sex toy that is right for you.

Sex toys for women come in so many designs that you might be surprised what’s out there. You don’t have to be timid. The people who work at both brick-and-mortar and virtual stores are there to answer any questions you might have. They’ll help you find the sex toy that best suits your needs, and while some of these toys can be upwards of $200, many of them are much less expensive. In most cases, you don’t have to spend a fortune just to get a sex toy that you love.
