Sex toys can be used by any adults

When it comes to sex toys, there are a lot of myths in existence and sometimes these daft ideas stop people from trying them out. If you don’t ever try sex toys, you could be missing out on all sorts of excitement, so here we reveal four of the common sex toy myths and the truth behind them!

1. Sex toys are only for single people who don’t have sex

This one of the worst sex toy myths ever! Of course, sex toys aren’t just for single people.

One of the greatest benefits of sex toys is their versatility and the fact that they can be used by anyone. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve got a partner or not, or whether you’re male or female, toys can be used by anyone. Using them when you’re on is a good way of relieving tension, but they’re equally beneficial used together with a partner to enhance your sexual experience.

2. Sex toys are for girls

Well, yes, some certainly are, but there are also plenty of exciting sex toys designed specifically with men in mind.

Cock rings, for example, are purely for men to enjoy (although women can gain the benefits too, if you’re wearing one whilst having sex). Other toys that men can gain pleasures from too include vibrators - great to massage sensitive areas with - anal vibrators and butt plugs.

3. Women who use sex toys don’t need men

As good as sex toys are (and some are REALLY GOOD!) they don’t outdo the need for men. Sex toys may manage to keep going for hours, but the batteries die eventually. Sadly sex toys don’t offer cuddles, nor do they get women breakfast in bed. Admittedly, some women don’t want men anyway, but for those that do, there’s a lot more interest in having a real man around the house than a plastic dildo.

4. You have to pay a lot to get a decent sex toy

Whilst some sex toys do come with a bigger price tag on them, expensive prices don’t automatically mean more satisfaction.

If you’ve only got a small to medium sized budget available to buy and try sex toys, then you’re sure to find something in your price range that will successfully hit the spot.
