Trouble TTC

Woke up to....(not for the prudish...)

A sex toys infomercial???? I did not even know this existed. I swear I heard "pays attention to the entire vulva" in my sleep. Well, I shot up and looked at the TV, and sure enough, there were a whole bunch of dildoes, rings, and vibrators starting back at me.

OK, so now I am intrigued. There were some fun looking "items" for sale. I have never bought a sex toy. Honest to God.

If you have, and you're brave enough to say it, what's your favorite? I am now curious...maybe I need to have one of those "Toy Parties".

Re: Woke up to....(not for the prudish...)

  • I'm interested to see responses to this.  I'll be brave and answer. 

     

    I have a rabbit that I bought when my husband was deployed. Doesnt see much action now, but that was fun.  Embarrassed

     

    Besides that I'm more entry level.  I really like this *** ring (can I even say that on here?!!) that goes on my husband but has a vibrating portion for me.  Speaking of, I need to get this out again!

  • I've only been to one party, as this isn't really my thing, but it ended up being a kind of a funny story because the saleswoman running it got violently sick to her stomach and we had to figure out how we were going to get her home, since she couldn't drive herself, and in the meantime she kept hawking all the stuff while she had her head between her legs. What was really funny was that it started out all raucous, but after she got sick we all sort of quietly passed the stuff around because we didn't want it to be too much for her.

  • Kellyrn, I think I'm in love with you. I wouldn't have thought to post this question up here and you're openness makes me giggle, which is hard to do so early in the morning.

    I've always been pretty open about my sexuality and have to admit that I've owned a toy or two in my time. What military wife hasn't? Haha.

    For a beginner, I would recommend something simple with not too many bells and whitles and most importantly, not too big! Indifferent

    My favorite toy was a waterproof slim vibrator. Too bad that darn thing finally wore out during a deployment. Embarrassed

    ETA: I forgot about the ring! Definitely get the ring. It's really fun and it's great that you can use it with DH rather than instead of DH. :::rummages through drawers looking for said ring::::  Tonight just got more interesting...

  • Haha, what channel were you watching???  That is quite the wakeup.  The only thing we have tried was the vibrating ring thing also.  Which I didn't find all that great.  Or maybe we were using it wrong.  Who knows.  I just felt like it did little unless it was touching me the whole time which didn't happen. 

    I have only been to a "shop" once.  It was a horrible experience.  I went with a friend to pick up something for a bach. party.  I was so nervous and clumsy.  We were looking at some sort of carboard pin the tail on the donkey (except not a donkey if you get my drift), and I backed into this display that was a pyramid of giant pink vibrators of some sort.  Maybe dolphins or rabbits or something some animal.  Anways the display was like ten feet tall, they all started falling crashing to the floor and literally I swear some started vibrating right there.  So there I was in this busy little shop trying to quickly pick up these vibrating pink rabbits.  With two store clerks rushing over to help.  Gaaaa  So because of this I refuse to ever set foot in one again.  Anyone have any good websites that are more for the timid and not too crazy?

  • I had a couple vibrators while I was in college - but they died soon after and I never replaced them.  Hadn't thought about it in a while - but I do kind of miss my BOB...ha!!

    My first trip to the toy store was with a few girlfriends in college - made it much more fun and less weird to be able to laugh and giggle together about the stuff.

  • I have a vibe. It was my master's graduation gift from DH Stick out tongue For a while, it didn't get much use, but with the libido slump, it's seen more action in the past few months. Just like guys do, sometimes a girl just needs a little self-love.

  • Bababaha! I am just imagining you waking up to that!

    Umm, I used to host those parties and they are a blasty blast! I also used to own a B.O.B. (battery operated boyfriend) but threw it out when I got married (DH doesn;t like them, he says why have one when I can do it for ya). The parties are a hoot and a half and I too have been thinking about going to one just to spice things up in the bedroom! With IF stealing some of  the romance in bed, some fun toys might spice things back up!

  • What's funny to me is that my DH actually bought me my first vibrator. (I came from a very conservative background) I didn't know a lot about myself uh down there so he bought it for me to learn. It was actually very helpful!

  • I am not shy at all. We have lots of toys, lotions and potions. I had a good friend that did the parties and I pretty much supported her. We have a swing and a fancy chair. I have to say we are pretty wild in the bedroom. IF has not taken that away completely. I have seen the commercials and I have actually bought from it before. We have pretty much tried them all and I think my favorite is my jack rabbit. It's pretty intimidating but it gets the job done. Not huge but lots of buttons and stuff.

    I don't like the *** rings too much. They just don't do it for me.

  • OMG! I've never seen a sex toy infomercial.

    I do own a few sex toys. They have been in the "toy box" for a while. My DH's, boss's, wife sell them so she of course gave us a few.

  • I just have a plain ol' vibrator Embarrassed I was always super shy when it came to sex...but now I am coming out of that shell a little!!! I got it at my bachelorette party almost 6 years ago and have just really started using it in the last 2 years!! You gotta have something to keep the spice when dealing with IF!
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I'm late to post but DH and I like to use vibrating c-rings on occasion and most every time we have sex we use a pocket rocket, Its good because it is small so it stays out of DHs way but allows me to have double stimulation, definitely recommended.
