The Great Dildo Hunt
I’ve been thinking today about sex toys. Most people are familiar with the adult toy box staple, the vibrator. Dildos, vibes, fake pussies, and butt plugs are what you would call “run of the mill” when it comes to the adult toy market.
But, have you ever thought about making your own? You can purchase kits to make a cast of your own dick or pussy. Or someone else’s for that matter–sort of a memento. I have been considering buying one of those penis-casting kits to try out. I came across a site that sells a very impressive kit and I may just have to get one and let everyone know how it works out. If it works well, you will know as soon as I do.
Buying these things can be a little intimidating. I know when I have went into the local sex shop, the first few times it bothered me to know that the people in there would recognize me on the street or in, say, the grocery store. It hit me after a while, though. What the fuck were they looking for, too? I seriously doubt one of them would point at me in the cereal aisle and say, “Look honey, she was buying a big, fat dildo a few days ago when I was buying your lesbian DVD.”
Nope. I don’t think so. I stopped letting it bother me. It is even less of a hassle buying toys online, because you do not have to look a clerk in the face or hear their speculations on what you are going to be doing. Some dip once asked me, “Whatcha going to do tonight?” when I picked up a new Jack Rabbit vibe. Looked him straight in the eye and said, “Don’t you know? These motherfuckers shake one hell of a martini.” The packages arrive in a plain brown box, perfect to keep the neighbors guessing.
Most of all, I’ve been thinking about buying a new toy. There are a few I have my eye on. Probably the one I would love to purchase most would be the Sybian, but that is just a wee bit out of my price range. Orgasms are wonderful, but not worth over a grand. I do know that whatever I purchase will most likely be silicone. When you want a top of the line toy, silicone is where it’s at. Easy to clean, heck they are dishwasher safe in many instances. Silicone also carries vibrations well and also holds heat, which is a plus in a toy. It also needs to vibrate, but not sound like a Kawasaki bike. I will keep you updated in my search for the perfect toy. Or toys.

I’ve been shopping sex toys again myself this past week.
Top o’ my list is always my Hitachi Magic Wand. I’ve had this one for nearly a decade and one of my lovers, a professional electrician, has repaired a frayed power cord for me twice. I think I should get a spare for the day this one conks out.
An ex-girlfriend, one of only 2 women I’ve had strong love relationships with, gave me Adam, from Good Vibrations, and I joke that she gave me the best part of our love life. But alas, Adam’s strap-on base is falling apart, although his best features are still intact, so I went looking to GoodVibes.com for a new one.
They don’t have Adam anymore and on my first couple of inquiries no one could tell me what was comparable. Finally, I decided that Woody was close and sent an inquiry. Olivia (surely, a pseudonym) tells me that Woody isn’t as lifelike as Adam, but is indeed my closest choice.
I am pretty simple when it comes to toys - one dildo, one vibrator. Kind of monogamous, really. I tried a Sybian once and had a terrible time getting comfortable with it. That was years ago. Maybe I should try again.
Love, Ann

I was thinking about the Magic Wand. I’d like to get something that is multi fuctioning, though. Maybe a dildo that vibrates and the ones with a suction base really appeal to me.
Did you buy a Sybian? They look a little uncomfortable to me, but I did recently see something that was supposed to be like it, only inflatable. Those run around $30 usd.
It bothers me that there are Real Dolls for guys, but no Real Men for us. Then again, I haven’t been by that site in a long time, maybe I should check and see if they have a man doll.

I have never seen man dolls but, honestly, there’s only one part you really need.
Well, I guess a moving tongue would be nice, too.
You should check out some of the toys made from Futurotic cyberskin. They are supposed to feel lifelike, and they make realistic-looking dildos from the material.
I am doing a new writing project for a sex toy web site actually, so I learned, in the past 3 days, more than I ever imagined I would need to know about fake pussies, cock rings, butt plugs, oh, and all the cool ladies’ toys, too!
My favorite? I hope it’s okay to post a link…

I even love the name, Decadent Indulgence 3. Unlike most sequels, this one looks better than the original. LOL

Sorry, link doesn’t work and I can’t figure out how to edit my entry. If you’d like to delete it, that would be fine.

My favorite is the Venus, which was designed by Betty Dodson. She gave me one as part of a trade for an astrology reading about 10 years ago. I am also a big fan of your basic silicone buttplug. Then there is a great, but not cheap one - which is a double with a large cock-shaped dildo in one direction and a smaller anal attachment in the other; allowing a m/f couple to do the double dildo thing - a lot of fun at any altitude.
