Toys & Pleasure FAQs
The most common Cliterally community questions, answered.
How do I choose my first sex toy?
Start with what kind of sensation you're curious about (external, internal, both), your budget, and body-safe materials like medical-grade silicone. Simpler often beats complicated for a first toy.
What materials are safe to use?
Body-safe options include medical-grade silicone, glass and stainless steel. It's worth avoiding porous materials like jelly rubber or PVC where possible, as they're harder to clean thoroughly.
How do I clean and store sex toys properly?
Clean with a toy cleaner or mild, unscented soap and water after every use, dry thoroughly, and store separately (a fabric pouch works well) to avoid materials degrading against each other.
Are sex toys safe to use with a partner?
Yes, and they can be a brilliant way to explore pleasure together. Just make sure toys are cleaned between partners and between different types of use.
Is it normal to prefer a toy over penetrative sex?
Completely. Pleasure isn't a competition between methods, and lots of people find toys are simply what works best for their body.
