There is absolutely zero shame in using toys in the bedroom. In fact, they can be a game-changer for pleasure, intimacy, and just plain fun.
Whether you’re curious about where to start, nervous about how your partner might react, or worried about your kids (or pets!) discovering your stash, we’re covering it all in today’s episode.
We’re also sharing some of the funniest (and most relatable) real-life sex toy stories you sent us. Because if you’ve ever had a vibrator confiscated by your toddler or opened a box of anal beads in front of your in-laws, you are definitely not alone.
💛 Here’s what we’re diving into:
The best starter toy for women
How to talk to your partner about wanting to use toys (without hurting their feelings)
Whether orgasms feel different with a toy
Why it’s totally normal if toys aren’t your thing
Talking to men about male sex toys
Using toys solo vs. with a partner
How often to use toys (and why your partner should never “hand you off” to one)
The best ways to store your toys so kids or family don’t stumble across them
Hilarious (and mortifying) real-life mishaps from our listeners
