Dildo Guide - Penetration Without Vibration

A dildo is a simple blunt cylinder or penis shaped sex toy for penetration of the vagina or anus. Sometimes people refer to vibrators as dildos as well, but for our purposes, if it has a motor and vibrates, it's a vibrator, not a dildo.

Sizes can vary from a small 4 inches to a large 13 inches in length.

Dildo Designs

Cheap & Inexpensive
Dildos can be found in smooth shafted models, ribbed, veined, pointy, and lots of other shapes and sizes. Each design has a specific purpose.
Double Dildo
A double dildo is long enough to allow for simultaneous penetration of 2 vaginas at once. Most double enders are between 12 and 18 inches in length from end to end to allow for penetration with some space in between the women using it.
Dual Penetration (DP)
These have two penetrating shafts, one for the vagina, and he other for the anus. These are used by women who desire the feeling of simultaneous vaginal anal penetration. The anal dildo is smaller in diameter for an easier fit.
Large or small?
Self explanatory really, these are dildos with extra length, girth or both.
Strap-on Dildo
A good strap on harness system is designed to allow the owner to swap between different attachments. This allows for variety and easy cleaning of the various components. The strap-on attachments are attached to a basic leather harness that is worn on the hips and under the crotch.
Squirting
Some of these sex toys come with mechanical features, like inflatable or squirting models that simulate ejaculation.
Inflatable
Yes, you can pump this dildo before and during your session. This gives you the ability to change it's girth on the fly.
Suction Cup
Many dildos have a suction cup on the base, this can be a good feature when you can get it. Attach the suction cup on the dildo to a smooth, flat surface, and you have an easy way to use the dildo without needing your hands free.

Materials

Jelly
This soft and squishy rubber is one of the more common materials used to make dildo sex toys. It's very soft and very flexible and pliable. Many jelly sex toys have a scented ingredient added to cover up the strong rubber smell of the material.
Realistic Dildo
These dildos have an almost velvety simulated skin feeling. This kind of realistic material has names like cyberskin, futurotic and ur3. In combination with the realistic dildo material, most of the lifelike models have details like veins and hand painted coloring.
Glass
Pyrex, or a heavy duty acrylic that looks like glass, are less common dildo materials. If gently warmed with water these glass dildos will retain heat well. Another feature of glass is it's also the best one of the easier materials for cleaning. The firm and rigid feel of a glass dildo or acrylic dildo is another feature that some enjoy.
Silicone
The best material for dildos or any sex toy really. Silicone dildos are durable, flexible and hypoallergenic, and have little to no odor. A silicone dildo has the advantage of being easy to keep clean as it can be boiled, or washed with a 10% solution of bleach and hot water.
Rubber
The old standby, rubber dildos are still very common, smooth, flexible but not as pliable as jelly. Usually in opaque fleshtone colors.

Background ...

The dildo is perhaps one of the oldest known sex toys, owing in part to it's simplicity. This ancient stone dildo was found in a cave, and is believed to be 28,000 years old!

The word dildo could be derived from the name for a type of peg used to secure an oar in a dory, it may also come from the word dildetto. In Newfoundland Canada, where dory's were used for the local industry of fishing, there's even a town called Dildo!

These sex toys have been used in one shape or another for thousands of years, and will probably be with us for thousands to come. I wouldn't be surprised if a dildo has already been into space on the shuttle! Go Ask Alice has a bit more on the history aspect.
