Girth is the primary measure of a dildo. If you have never used a dildo before we recommend a slim dildo, such as Mistress. And if you like the sensation move up gradually to Mister. For those who like it really big The King has been highly rated. Thundercloud is a monster dildo that also vibrates and sports a clitoral stimulator.
Vaginal Dildos
The dildo was originally designed to give the vagina a feeling of 'fullness'. Vaginal dildos are generally the shape of a penis.
- G-Spot Dildos: G-Spot Dildos are easy to recognize because of their slightly curved top. They can be longer or shorter but the end is always curved.
- Double-ended Dildos: Dildos that have two rounded ends. Try: Feeldoe is a double ended dildo that has a unique design that works without a harness.
- Harness-friendly Dildos: Look for dildos that have a flared base. The base helps the dildo stay inside the harness.
Anal Dildos
Look for flared-base dildos for anal or harness play,or a no-slip grip. Anal dildos also come in the form of a graduated beads that add extra stimulation when they are removed one by one. Try: Ripple for slim stimulation or Bubbles for more stimulation.

Beads and Balls
Dildos come in a all shapes and sizes. The Ben Wa Ball has a long history. The Ben Wa Balls are two weighted balls that add a subtle vibration when they "clink" together inside the vagina. They are also used for increasing strength of the pelvic muscles when a woman inserts them into the vagina and prevents them from falling out as she stands up and moves around.
Beads are a string of beads that can be inserted into the vagina or anus and removed increasing intensity each time a bead is removed. Beads and Balls
Choosing the Best Material for a Dildo
