Gay Sex Toys

What are gay sex toys?

These are toys designed for the practices common between men. Here most of them are masturbators: a soft sleeve you put your penis into that imitates penetration. Some reproduce an anus and others a man's whole body. Dual-stimulation ones combine an anus to penetrate with a penis to touch. There are also a few butt plugs and anal stimulators for anyone who prefers to receive.

Types of gay toys

Other products are also used in sex between men that aren't on this page but spread around the shop. Prostate massagers, like the LELO Hugo 2 or the Rocks-Off Rude Boy and Nova Dominion, and butt plugs, which range from about 2.5 cm to almost 10 cm in diameter, are in anal toys for men; there the brands with the most models are Addicted Toys, All Black and Pretty Love. Anal lubricants, with pjur and Eros as the brands with the most products, are in anal lubricants, and cock cages and bondage accessories are in BDSM. Jockstraps are with the men's lingerie and strap-on harnesses have their own section within the sex toys. Dildos and vibrators are in dildos and vibrators, and you will find more ideas in sex toys for men.

• Anus-shaped masturbators: realistic entrance and texture inside; the Baile Anus For Him also has a vibrator.
• Dual-entry masturbators: penis and anus in the same piece, like the Extreme Toyz Penis and Ass All in One.
• Realistic body masturbators: large pieces shaped like a torso or hips, like the Fuck Me Mega.
• With extras: the PDX Male Interactive Bad Boy has a speaker.
• Butt plugs and anal stimulators: the Pretty Love Ergonomic plug is made of silicone; the Joydivision Xpander X3 is an anal stimulator.

Care and cleaning

If the product page says TPR, TPE or a realistic skin-like material such as FantaFlesh, it is soft and porous. Wash it inside with warm water and mild soap and let it dry completely before storing it; larger pieces take longer. Store it apart from other toys.

The silicone plug is washed the same way, with water and soap. Use it with water-based lubricant, because silicone lubricant can damage its surface.

If you share a toy, use a new condom for each person. In 235 men who have sex with men seen at a clinic, using sex toys was associated, along with other practices, with more sexually transmitted infections (Rice et al., 2016, J Sex Med).

How to choose

• Use: masturbator if you are going to penetrate; plug or stimulator if you want to receive.
• Material: silicone for anything that goes inside you; masturbators are usually made of softer, more porous materials.
• Size: for masturbators, the overall size and weight; for plugs, the widest diameter.
• Entrance: anus, penis and anus, or whole body, according to the name and the photos on the product page.
• Base: a plug needs a wide base so it can't go in all the way.
• Extras: vibration or speaker, and whether it runs on batteries or a rechargeable battery.

Frequently asked questions

Which toy would you recommend for prostate stimulation?

To start without a motor, the Rev-Pro Classic, which is rigid, battery-free and has 11 cm of insertable length. If you want controlled vibration with a remote, the LELO Hugo 2, with two motors and 8 modes, and if you are after rotation plus vibration, the Mr Play prostate massager, with 12 vibration functions and 3 rotation ones. Always use plenty of water-based lubricant, start on the lowest level and look for this type of toy in anal toys for men.

Are there dildos and vibrators for gay men?

Yes, although on this page almost everything is a masturbator. For anal use, a dildo or vibrator with a wide base and a size you feel comfortable with works well. You will find them in dildos and vibrators.

Which lubricant should I use with a masturbator?

A water-based one. Silicone or oil-based lubricants can damage soft materials.

Can you share a toy with a partner?

Yes, preferably with a new condom for each person and washing it afterwards. Soft, porous materials don't come completely clean with just water and soap.
