How to Choose the Right Dildo Size
One of the biggest beginner mistakes is buying a toy that’s too large too quickly. Comfort matters more than size.
Beginner Tips:
- Start with smaller or moderate girth
- Choose body-safe silicone when possible
- Use water-based lubricant
- Pay attention to firmness and flexibility
- Read measurements carefully before buying
Best Materials for Dildos
Body-safe silicone remains one of the most recommended materials because it’s non-porous, smooth, and easy to clean.
Other materials may include glass, metal, dual-density blends, or softer flexible materials depending on sensation preference.
