“Hysteria” and the Strange History of Vibrators

This mini vibe is a powerful bullet encased in a body-safe silicone sleeve shaped for direct clitoral stimulation, Hodder says. Its flexible “horns” serve the purpose of cradling the clitoris and a firm, rounded bead in the center provides firmer pressure (Screaming O, $18). So penetrative rabbit vibes aren’t always my jam, personally, but Mono Flex is a G-spot and clitoral vibe that is a solid contender for folks that really love that dual stimulation.

It’s the only one from this list I already owned before embarking on this journey, if that’s any indication. The Vibe is the cheapest vibrator on this list at $45 (followed by the Satisfyer Pro 2 at a close $49.95), but that’s far from the reason why it’s so beloved. A downside, which could be due to the lower price point, is that it doesn’t come with its own pouch. This is easily DIYable, however, so don’t let that deter you if you want an inexpensive clit suction vibe in your life.

If you’re looking for a vibrator that can do it all, the Lovense Dolce should be at the top of your list. Whether you’re using it on your own or as a couple, the Fifty Shades of Grey Relentless Vibrations Remote Control Egg will make your next session even more intense. Now that we’ve popped your cherry, let’s dive headfirst into the world of interactive self-pleasure. Another feature that makes it an attractive out-of-town option is that it’s compact (smaller than your average pair of sunglasses) and has a locking mechanism to prevent embarrassing “where’s that coming from?

Some women also find smaller toys easier to use or more comfortable than larger ones. The LELO Enigma Double Sonic is a dual-action vibrator that combines external and internal stimulation. Its clitoral stimulator uses SenSonic technology for contactless pleasure, while the insertable arm features DeepSonic waves to target the G-spot and A-spot. The toy boasts eight different vibration patterns, is fully waterproof, and offers up to 2 hours of playtime on a single charge. It offers 10 levels of intensity for the Pleasure Air Control and vibrations, as well as 10 vibration patterns to choose from if that’s your thing, plus buttons to increase and decrease power. The buttons are easy to figure out, but because of where they’re placed and how you have to hold the Enhance to ensure it’s snug against the clitoris , it’s easy to accidentally switch modes and intensities.

But other options like the Lelo Lyla 2, which responds to movement, may also grab your attention. These devices sync with both music and the site interfaces, letting clients change vibrating speeds, patterns, and intensities depending on what will maximize their pleasure. Many people find this easier than trying to maneuver a sex toy manually throughout a session. The Ditto can be controlled by both an app and a fob, making it a flexible choice for different kinds of anal play. Women viberator, in particular, noted that it worked for vaginal sex when you turned the base to the back.

This powerful little pleasure device comes with SenseMotion™ technology, meaning the remote responds to movement. And whether you’re in the mood for a slow build or want to go all out from the get-go, the Tiani 3 has you covered with 8 different pleasure settings. If your vibrator is controlled remotely by a smartphone app, the process is a little different. Not only are they designed to sync with all the videos on the site’s interactive section, they can connect wirelessly with other Pornhub toys. This means you can climax along with your partner even if they’re on a different continent via the “Feel Connect” app. Though the 814e Koa aspires to 1940s and ’50s American flattop vintageness, it doesn’t always deliver on that count.

“It’s clitoral massager that’s no bigger than a lipstick, but still packs a range of intensities perfect for those exploring on the go.” Throw it in your bag with your chapstick, and no one will ask questions. While the controller does have up and down arrows, you can also squeeze and hold the outer, squishy part. This increases the speed of the vibration for as long as you’re holding it, which I found to be a highly enjoyable alternative to fumbling with specific controls while in use. The vibrator also connects to We-Vibe’s app which, when connected to WiFi, can control your vibrators from anywhere in the world.

Dildos are frequently phallic-shaped toys made of silicone, glass, or metal. They’re usually used for vaginal or anal penetration and some of them can be worn with a harness if you want to use it as a strap-on. Some dildos have detailing to make them look more like penises, while others don’t. These tend to be non-vibrating toys, though vibrating dildos are definitely a thing. The key here is to look for a vibrator that explicitly says it’s waterproof rather than water-resistant.
