The first sex toy I picked was a bit of an impulse-buy from a now-closed NYC sex shop, and it was by no means a body-safe dildo. That’s something no one tells you in sex ed, of course, and how would you know that unless you do your research? When you’re building up your carousel of sex toys, it’s just as important to follow your intuition as it is to educate yourself on the bells, whistles, and materials of different sex toys. Buy the sex toys you want, not the sex toys that you think your partner wants you to want.
