toys

cheesey1 · 26-05-2010 10:12am #1

Saw a thread on the Gentlemens Club called "GASP TABOO" and was did take a looked over it.

My question is I just purchased a "bullet" on the Ann Summers site and was wondering has anyone used one of these before, I haven't but was interested to see what it would be like.

Thanks.

krudler · 26-05-2010 10:37am

My missus loves hers

I really dont get the "oh noes, I'm being replaced!" attitudes some guys have to sex toys, they're just an extra they dont replace the real thing, go nuts

Pembily · 26-05-2010 3:59pm

Sex toys are great - amazing alone and great to add spice!!! I love all my sexy toys - they are very enjoyable!!!

Don't get the tabo around them!

Dinkie · 26-05-2010 7:39pm

My OH helps me play with my toys sometimes

I love my toys.... don't have the bullet though so would be interested to hear other thoughts - may have to buy a new one.

ilovesleep · 26-05-2010 8:02pm

I dont have a huge selection of toys. i do have a few of those bullet toys. they are great. im interested in getting something new. something powerful but not too big. any recommendations.

In a perfect world no one would, but we dont live in a perfect world,
Id just like to add Ive no issue with women useing toys, or men for that matter.

op
I thaught i'd start the thread to see what opinions where, Because it was a topic i felt that could be disscussed.

women have anne summers partys, i dont think to many men could be in that kind of enviroment. I wasnt really sure on the title for the thread, so I thaught Gasps tabo would grab attention and get people posting..

cheesey1 · 27-05-2010 3:17pm

thanks, I am waiting delivery of it - really don't know much about them but thought I'd give it a good and I am sure there will be an booklet with it - just wondering can you use it with your OH too?

yup, doing it doggy style while she uses a virator on herself feels great

Yeah, using it for sex with a partner is fun

As for a booklet, there's not much to using a bullet! Just turn it on and off you get

I've a fair stash of toys at this stage and while I use them a good bit on my own, they make a regular appearance with my partner as well... he likes the idea of them as well as the extra stimulation for me.

ha yeah, its a vibrator not a combustion engine

The Big Red Button · 27-05-2010 7:37pm

I'm getting my first one this weekend! I never really wanted one before, but now I'm living away from my OH and only get to see him every couple of weeks, and, you know, I miss stuff!

I'm really nervous about buying it! I know nothing about them, won't have a clue what to look for! I suppose Ann Summers is probably the best place to buy them, yeah?

Yeah they're lovely and helpful in there and discreet, they won't be pushy but they'll give recommendations if you want.
I love shopping there though my toys keep breaking

OP - i'd recommend their rosebud toy

oh and yeah you can use a lot of them with a partner too

shellyboo · 27-05-2010 11:14pm

Personally wouldn't be a massive fan of Ann Summers toys... They're a bit overpriced for the quality, I find. But certainly for a first-timer it's handy to be able to go into the store and see what size they are etc, and get advice from the staff

Another real-life store option is Miss Fantasia on South William Street -- they'd sell proper branded toys where Ann Summers would only sell their own brand. I stick to buying online myself -- there's a website called LoveHoney that I find fantastic. Great customer service and good prices too

Anne Summers sell cheap tat at over inflated prices. Love Honey is a great site that shows you the margins the high street stores, in particular Anne Summers, make.

There's also a good site bondara.com, much cheaper than Ann Summers and a good selection of stuff.
Once you buy something, they send you 10% off vouchers as well

The Big Red Button · 28-05-2010 7:49am

I'm just looking at some of those sites, and my god I've lived a sheltered life! :eek:

They seem a lot cheaper than Ann Summers alright ... haven't a clue what I'm looking for though! So much to choose from!

Just to check, as I'd probably be getting it delivered to my parents house if I bought it online ... the packaging would be fairly subtle, right?

Having a nose around lovehoney really opens your eyes to all the different types of things people enjoy during sex alright!

It's very discrete packaging, with no indication of what's inside. I think it's labelled as being from LH Trading.

cheesey1 · 28-05-2010 1:14pm

received it the post this morning and there was a free cock ring with it! Might give the "Bullet" a try tonight or over the weekend.

As Faith says, it's a totally plain box, very sturdy so no chance of it tearing or giving a hint as to what's inside. My leftover LoveHoney boxes have all gone to my parents' house full of old magazines/newspapers I need to keep, that's how normal looking they are!

krudler · 28-05-2010 2:12pm

Had a look on LoveHoney there, some cool stuff alright, might treat the missus to something

It just arrives in a brown plain envelope, ive almost forgotten that ive ordered stuff before, as the packaging is so discreet!!!

Anything I've ordered comes in either a plain brown envelope or a strong sturdy box. Nothing on the outside which could lead people to find out what's in it. I order from there all the time and I still live with my parents

Cutie18Ireland · 28-05-2010 10:09pm

just ordered from a new site i came across called toysforjoys , stuff is much more reasonable than ann summers and they take laser.

pinkpigs · 29-05-2010 12:12am

hey cheesy1

I promise you, you won't be disappointed! Cannot live without mine!

panda100 · 29-05-2010 3:58pm

I think Anne Summers is a good place to start for a complete toy virgin. Id never brought a vibrator before a few months ago when I gt the rosebud anne summers toy. I'm still getting used to it as it feels wierd.
The rampant rabbits etc look too big and scare me a bit tbh.

Mimojo · 29-05-2010 11:02pm

Just came across this thread and have found it v. helpful! Had a look on lovehoney and have placed my order, they are adding in free stuff that is on offer, and it is very reasonable - looking forward to receiving it now, ordered it with my OH and we are looking forward to something different! Cheers for advice!

Gauge · 30-05-2010 1:08am

I'm very tempted by some of the things on lovehoney! I'd have to get it delivered to work though, and in spite of what people have said about discrete packaging I'm very nervous about ordering stuff from there...

wicklowstar · 30-05-2010 8:30pm

My boyfriend would see a toy as an insult..
But I could try be persuasive!
Any suggestions for something for both of us??
Was looking at the vibrating rings on lovehoney..

cheesey1 · 31-05-2010 9:03am

I told the boy i got it on Friday and he said maybe I should use it on my own - a few hours later he was texting to find out what it was like. Yesterday i asked him if he wanted to come over and play with it and he came over but I did't like to suggest using it as i thought I would let him bring it up but he didn't so we didn't use it together.

But in saying that I used it over the weekend and it was fabulous definately worth the purchase. Have looked on the lovehoney site and I've see the vitrators but as this was my first "toy" to buy for the moment I'll stick with the bullet. But would be interested to hear what others think of the vibrator and how comfortable it is.

Have a look at this page on the LH site, it shows the packaging they use

Honestly, I've had stuff delivered to work before and there's no way they'd ever know.

The vibrating rings are a great place to start! It's good for using with partners who might feel threatened, because you use it during sex. I did a review of the one I have on my blog, let me know if you want a read!

krudler · 31-05-2010 12:09pm

i was chatting with some of my friends about this recently and the general consensus they had is they're "pretty sure" their oh's dont use toys, I'm shocked they dont ask/care enough to find out. I've bought my missus stuff like that a few times, it wouldnt bother me if she used it and i wasnt there, she usually tells me about it so its all good

but using them together is always fun, going away for weekends and bringing a bag of stuff is great, even if most of it doesnt get used having there and making up new things to do is a great craic.

cheesey1 · 31-05-2010 1:21pm

Oh Shellyboo - I'd be interested to take a look on your blog if that would be possible. Thanks

Joey the lips · 31-05-2010 4:37pm

Hi Folks just a quick question. Have been dying to ask for a while but have not found the oppertunity.... Any couples used this....

What do you think of it.

Is it possible for 2 to share it ie have sex while using it.

How long does the charge last.

http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=14504

Me and my otherhalf like toys but mainly shareing toys not that it matters to me what she does.

I think it looks good. I orig bought the anne summers vibrating kit but its shook itself to death

Many thanks for your replies.

31-05-2010 7:28pm

Oh I'd love to find reviews of that as well, I was eyeing it up a while back

krudler · 31-05-2010 7:29pm

Bloody hell, I only ordered something on Friday gone from Lovehoney and it was here this morning, talk about quick service

I spotted that in Miss Fantasias in Dublin, was way more expensive though think it was €120, it looks cool and apparently its amazing but its mad expensive, I think it looks a bit awkward too, cant imagine itd be easy for a girl to have both that and a penis in there at the same time, especially if shes not used to it.

Nevyn · 31-05-2010 7:33pm

it's not meant to be used in conjunction with a penis, until your talking about using that while having anal sex.

The site says it is
maybe it's smaller than it looks?

I didnt think it was either but apparently it is, the smaller of the parts goes in while youre having sex, its in the explanation video on the site, I dunno

Its cheaper on bondara but I am having trouble finding it. My thoughts on fitting both in thats why I asked.

Apparently it is... Its ment to be intense for both of you. Thats why I like it so much...

It fits in your palm... Its kinda the size of the hand theory I imagine

yes i watched the video just wanted to know if anyone used it. I believe the charging is a pain....24 hours....:(

shellyboo · 31-05-2010 9:39pm

I have a We-Vibe and it is meant to be used during penis-in-vagina intercourse

To be totally honest, me and the boy don't get much use out of it... I much prefer the vibrating cock rings.

I think it's probably good for couples who are looking to give the female parter a fuller feeling as well as clitoral stimulation.

Joey, it does need to charge for 24 hours but that's just for first usage, you'll get a good few goes out of it then before you need to recharge! Do have a read of the reviews, they do come from real customers and if you go to the last reviews you'll see the bad ones.

I'm starting to sound like a feckin rep

Going to shut up now! LoveHoney have their own forums, there's a ton of info on them for anyone looking for advice.

Cheesey1, here's that blog post: http://michellaneous.wordpress.com/2010/03/30/put-a-ring-on-it/
(on mobile so can't hyperlink, sorry!)

And now I'm gonna butt out of this thread for fear of taking it over altogether

But PM with any questions!

Can't see that working at least for me, i know that the Vaginal walls can stretch but just no, no thanks.

At least they are doing rechargables, and it's not a wind up one

Yes that was the thoughts of my other half or more to the point "Oh jasus no way...that would kill me..":)

cheesey1 · 01-06-2010 9:50am

well received the bullet on friday and now didn't spend my entire weekend using it! But it needed a new battery last night, so battery life not great in them. It was a really small battery size N 1.5V so hopefully they will be easily gotten in the supermarket!

Nevyn · 01-06-2010 10:02am

Try your local 2 euro shop they can often have cards of that battery type so you can by 10/20 of them at once and stick then in your play drawer.

There is a very good set that anne summers do. It comes on wires though. The disadvantage is the wires. The advantage is it takes AA batteries...

Now seen as though i am on an honest footing..myself and the other half used this many times. One night we were platic but thought "for the laugh" kinda thing. Anyway before we got to usw it we feel asleep with it on. We woke up the next morning and it was still going and a funny laugh..

http://www.annsummers.com/wcsstore/AnnSummers/images/AnnSummers/ASPRODUCT_IMAGES/07SAKTAS0038_Z.jpg

Its the only c ring with normal batteries as far as i know... It has a couple of other pcs as well but for me its the long life of the battery in the c ring...

It's really, really not as big as any of you think it is. About as long as my thumb and not much wider. If you can fit two fingers, you can use a we-vibe during sex.

Nevyn · 01-06-2010 10:57am

Maybe but if you have a strong pelvic floor and clench during sex you could cause brusing the same as with a speclum and right on the G Spot, again no thanks.
