Types of Male Sex Toys You Should Know and Try

Fleshlights are currently the most popular male sex toys in the world. They offer highly pleasurable and even realistic stimulation thanks to a unique material called SuperSkin.

The exterior of these sex toys is shaped like a regular flashlight. The interior, on the other hand, features all sorts of different textures that deliver unique experiences. Additionally, you can get different openings as well, including an artificial vagina, anus, and even an oral opening.

One more thing you definitely need to know about Fleshlights is that some of them are modeled by famous pornstars such as Riley Reid, Luna Star, Abella Danger, and countless others.

They may be similar to the types of male sex toys we just talked about, but automatic masturbators do the hard work for you. This allows you to just insert your penis, sit back, and relax.

There are a few types of automatic masturbators. Some are all-in-one automatic toys, while others allow you to turn standard masturbators from Fleshlight or Kiiroo into automatic ones.

Overall, the main difference is the stroking part. If you don’t like stroking back and forth all the time, this is a great way to take the work out of it and just be left with the fun.

If nothing else, their unique interior textures and extreme ease of use will allow you to enjoy a highly unique experience. Plus, masturbation eggs are usually quite affordable, so they are at least worth a try.

Masturbation eggs aren’t electric. You just put it on your penis, grab hold, and start rowing. Ideally, you can choose the type of texture you want to get. You can get realistic BJ mimics, strange shapes, and much more.

There are a plethora of various other masturbation sleeves made by different manufactures. In their nature, sleeves are similar to onaholes or eggs but the design is more conventional so to say. Plus, they are often open-ended.

The best part about this is that you can buy them with tons of different textures, patterns and designs, all with the main goal of helping you achieve the most satisfying orgasm ever.

Not to get confused with the previous type, penis vibrators, in general, also come in various shapes and sizes. They can include removable sleeves, but they can also look completely different.

Even though you can stroke some of them, the majority stimulate a penis only with a vibration. That’s why we decided to place them in a separate category.

Best for:

• Great for foreplay

Ring vibrators are highly versatile sex toys that can stimulate both the male and the female partner at the same time. You can also use the toy during solo play to enhance your masturbation session.

Vibrating penis rings are easy to use, easy to clean and usually are adjustable enough to fit the majority of men. On the downside, they often lack the power and don’t provide decent stimulation for a female partner during intercourse.

• It’s great for beginners
• Helps to maintain longer and harder erections
• Helps with the ED

Not so good for:

• Users with extremely girthy penises may find it uncomfortable
