Although sex toys are becoming increasingly popular, there are still some taboos when it comes to using them in the bedroom – especially for men. Female sex toys are often praised for giving women control over pleasure and allowing them to be more comfortable with their bodies, but we rarely hear about male sex toys conveying the same message.
In fact, the information we hear is often the opposite - male sex toys are often ridiculed. For instance, I have read some articles that describe male masturbation caps as "putting your penis into a thermos bottle". If you think about it carefully, you will find that many statements about male sex toys are "true" - men don't need them and using them is a shameful thing.
Given this, it is not surprising that the proportion of men using sex toys is often much lower than that of women (although the proportion of gay and bisexual men using sex toys seems to be higher than that of heterosexual men ).
However, it would be best for us to change our attitude towards male sex toys and break the taboo, because research shows that sex toys can help enhance men's sexual ability and improve their sexual quality of life.
Men who use sex toys report that, in general, sex toys have improved their sexual experiences . Male sex toy users also reported improvements in their sexual functions. Specifically, studies have shown that users of sex toys reported enhanced erectile function, orgasm, sexual intercourse satisfaction, and libido .
Furthermore, male sex toys - particularly self-pleasuring devices that insert into the penis - have been successfully used to treat premature ejaculation and delayed orgasm in men . These studies suggest that regular use of these devices may help men better control ejaculation.
For those men who are considering trying sex toys to explore their potential benefits, where should they start? Before the taboos surrounding male sex toys are broken, many men may not be willing to visit sex product stores in person. So you can first search for suppliers online that offer cautious delivery and payment services to ensure privacy and comfort.
There are many adult sex toy stores on the market, offering a wide range of male, female and couple toys from the world's most popular brands.
At first glance, the wide range of choices might seem overwhelming. So you can start with a masturbator. These devices are specifically designed for men of all sexual orientations. They have various textured protrusions inside, intended to stimulate the penis. These toys were used in the aforementioned study and can help enhance the ability to control ejaculation.
Some masturbators are designed to resemble the appearance of the genitals, while others have a plain and unremarkable appearance. Different men have different preferences for the covers of masturbators. Some prefer more realistic designs, while others prefer toys that do not deliberately imitate the human body.
In any case, there are toys suitable for men of different tastes and experience levels.
So, go ahead and take a look - explore your options. Remember, using sex toys is not shameful, and they might even help you enhance your sexual abilities and satisfaction.
