The best sex toys for solo play and couples
A few days ago on Instagram I said that I would be talking to a very well-known sex toy brand. I reached out LELO, an award-winning luxury pleasure brand to answer questions from our Instagram community about sex toys. But before LELO answers the specific questions you had, lets read through the data submitted by our IG community about this hush-hush topic.
The Best Sex Toys for Solo Play and Couples
Do you have any sex toys?
Based on 1,000+ men and women that voted.
Something I need all men to understand is this: 75% of women either CANNOT or RARELY achieve an orgasm without some sort of clitoral stimulation. That means only 25% of women can reach orgasm through regular penetration. Does this mean women NEED toys? I don’t believe women NEED toys, but they help, especially if their partner isn’t taking their time to explore their partner’s desires, turn ons and anatomy.
Would you be okay with your partner having sex toys?
Based on 1,000+ men and women that voted.
What was fascinating to me about this question were the responses on behalf of the women. A lot of women messaged me and they said it depends on which toy their partner has— that depending on what toy, they may not feel comfortable with it at all.
What was also interesting was the majority of men NOT having toys. Is it because they are unaware of the products designed specifically for men’s pleasure? Is it because they feel like they don’t actually need them? Is there a misconception about toys for men? Whatever the reason, LELO will be sharing the most popular toys for men (read on).
Do men feel threatened when using a vibrator during sex?
Based on 1,000+ men who voted.
I asked 200+ women what they thought of men feeling threatened by vibrators during sex. Here are some of the most common responses from women:
The vibe is not your opponent. Y’all are on the same team with the same goal.
Toys can’t replace a partner, it just adds pleasure. Toys can never replace touches from a partner.
Can your hand replace your woman? Connection can’t be provided by a toy.
A toy is a friend in the bedroom, not an enemy! Guys who use toys = BDE (big dick energy).
Think of it as a helper, not a replacement.
Toys are amazing! But it isn’t the same as a hot body and a steamy kiss.
Toys are your teammate not your opponent!
My husband and I use toys, it actually increased the intimacy between us!
There are a few things you should never pinch pennies on:
mattresses, cosmetic procedures, a good office chair and sex toys.
*LELO has entered the chat*
Our instagram community had questions I couldn’t answer so I reached out to the most reputable sex toy brand to answer them for us. A little background on LELO... LELO is an award-winning luxury pleasure brand, a self-care movement and the main design, innovation and tech industry leader. …and their Instagram memes are FIRE 😂.

With an extended tip, ergonomic external stimulator, extra-soft silicone and a wider range of sonic intensities, it will have you trembling after a blended orgasm that touches all of the right places.

This allows for an entirely new approach to pleasure, capable of generating multiple orgasms at once.
