“Hysteria” and the Strange History of Vibrators

That’s why a lot of them have started using remote control vibrators. Interactive sex toys like OhMiBod and the Lovense Lush 3 can be activated by tips. That means more viewers and more money make their toy buzz relentlessly. Plus, it’s whisper quiet and 100% waterproof, making it a versatile toy for any situation. So no matter how wet or wild you want to get, you can add a little spice to your life with this remote controlled vibrator.

All in all, I like it and I’m going to use it, but the people who absolutely should buy one are those who run sex clubs and dungeons. As far as I see it, sitting on the machine feels inherently kinky, and this can only be enhanced by exhibitionism or BDSM, so the perfect place to use one may be at a sex party or a kink meet-up. If you can spare the cash and want a literal sex machine in your home, definitely buy a Motorbunny Buck. I feel like a badass having one, even if I do have to awkwardly explain its presence to my cat sitter. If you want to go big and bold and can afford it, it’s worth the cost — and you deserve the orgasms.

With a combo of suction and penetration, it delivers on all the different sensations a beginner could be looking for but you can customize what you want to feel (and when) to avoid feeling overwhelmed. When it comes to cleaning, Dr. Tara advises washing your vibrator with light, soapy water, while ensuring it doesn’t seep into the battery or charging area. We’d recommend getting the sexy times started by browsing this list with your partner. Ask them what types of toys they find intriguing, and tell them which ones you like as well.

Aside from the bells and whistles, the Chorus is just a really great vibrator. Its vibrating tip is perfect for pinpointing your clitoris or your nipples but also feels great against your G-spot, too. The Maude Vibrator charges up quickly and holds that charge for at least 2.5 hours.

The clitoris gets lots of attention—and for good reason—but there’s another area worthy of some serious stimulation. We’re talking about the G-spot, of course, which is most easily aroused via G-spot vibrators designed specifically to target this erogenous zone. We test a lot of sex toys and accessories here at WIRED, and there isn’t enough room in one list for all of our favorite picks. There’s barely enough room on this list for all the toys we’d consider phenomenal, let alone the ones we consider the absolute best.

As well as featuring 10 modes, each with seven levels of intensity, it contains two motors so target the G-spot and clitoral stimulators can be operated separately – meaning you can achieve a “blended” orgasm. There’s also a heat function, which warms the vibrator up to body temperature for additional comfort. The toy is waterproof, super quiet and there’s a handy travel-lock feature, which prevents it from accidentally turning on in your bag. The battery life isn’t the longest but that’s a small flaw for an otherwise exceptional product.

With all the thousands of vibrators on the market, it can be tough to know what to look for, so here’s a handy breakdown of three qualities any vibrator worth its salt should have.

And with the Lovense app, you can control each part of the vibrator independently, meaning you can customize your experience to perfection. The Lovense Lush 3 is one of the few remote controlled vibrators that can also be used as a long distance sex toy, using a combination of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to give your partner control from afar. Good oral sex is often the fastest and most reliable way to reach the big O. Other times, a little oral exploration gets you primed for the main event. But there are times when you may want to get some wet and wild action when you’re flying solo.

Below, we’ve assembled some of the best masturbators and penis toys, according to sex experts and educators. You’ll find high-quality, best-selling sex toys from brands like Tenga, Fleshlight , Fun Factory, Hot Octopuss, Arcwave, Lovehoney, and Lelo. While most discreet vibrators are compact in size, this one is fully disguised and functional as a chic statement necklace.

And if you like both, a rabbit or dual-stimulation vibe could be your perfect match. Vibrators come in a ton of shapes and styles, with different power and speed settings. Many vibes are designed for external stimulation, but there are also lots of options that can be used internally to target the G-spot, A-spot vibrators, cervix, and prostate. Dual-stimulation vibrators can reach two hot spots at once—rabbit vibes, for example, focus on both the clit and the G-spot.
