There are literally tens of thousands of different sex toys out there to choose from, so how do you pick the toy that’s right for you? In today’s show, we’re going to talk about where to start when it comes to selecting adult toys and pleasure products, what to look for in terms of optimizing your own health and pleasure, whether it’s worth splurging on luxury toys, and so much more.
My guest is Gabrielle Kassel. She is a sex and wellness journalist committed to helping people feel the best they can in their bodies. Her work has appeared in publications such as Men’s Health, Shape, Cosmopolitan, Well+Good, Self, Women’s Health, and more!
Some of the topics we explore in this episode include:
- Why is lube a great starting place for exploring toys?
- What should people be looking for when it comes to buying a lube that’s going to work for them?
- What are the different materials that are used to make sex toys, and what should you be looking for?
- If you’re new to buying vibrators, masturbation sleeves, or anal toys, what do you need to know for picking a good one?
- Are luxury sex toys worth it?
