Sex toys
There are no affiliate links here. Genuinely just shit I bought for myself. Links to Peepshow Toys, which is where I get them from. This will be a living page that gets occasionally updated as sex, masturbation, and sex toys are probably going to be a lifelong hobby.
Points of consideration
I possibly have endometriosis due to the following:
- my mom does
- I have crazy entrance pain (even a finger in the vag was hell at first)
- I get random crazy pain on my period that almost made me pass out once, and sweat all over unable to speak for like 10 minutes feeling like forever another time
- for years my menstrual flow rivaled niagra falls
Which basically means I can’t take bigger girths right now. I barely just got to 1.3" diameter from two fingers over the course of four months.
Vaginal canal length
Not that long. Genuinely don’t know how some people can stick more than 5 inches. I haven’t measured my canal really, but I can’t sit fully on my 7" first dildo (dual-density Blush Avant). I tried. Big mistake. It fucking hurt. I will always remember to be nice to my pussy now.
Preferences
Likes
- clit vibe
- humping/grinding (not really relevant right now as I can’t find a good toy for this that I can actually get)
- A/P spot hitting (I genuinely can’t tell which I’m hitting. It’s definitely at the end of my canal.)
- G spot hitting (will try to get this when the Glas I just ordered arrives)
- G spot vibrating dildo (I’m craving it, but the ones I want are unavailable right now)
- vaginal plugging over long hours (to be tried. I just know I wanna do it. I just ordered the G-Squeeze.)
Dislikes
- thrusters (I haven’t tried them but I need control)
- multi-use. Things like 2-in-one stuff. Like toys that both do something on the clit and insert into the vag at the same time. Just thinking about it irritates me because of the lack of control: two separate areas being managed by one thing is like a constraint to me rather than a flexibility.
- realistic-looking dildos: it turns me off. If I want something that looks like a real cock, I want to see it attached to a man. Disembodied cocks make me cringe. Blush Avant isn’t even considered realistic, yet that was still toeing the line for me.
- butt plugs. They do nothing for me.
- anal by itself. Once again does nothing for me. Getting fucked in the ass is boring, and just makes me worry that I’m shitting because of the sensation of cock pulling out of my ass even if there’s never any shit that comes out. If I fill my ass it has to be in combination with doing something else. But the point is, I don’t focus on any anal toys. And be warned that if I get an anal toy it’s probably gonna be bigger than my vaginal toys. IDK my ass can take a lot. Anyway for solo play it’s too annoying: the douching, the making sure I only use the toy for anal or clean it well enough so that it’s not gonna fuck up my vagina. Like the drama and fuss is too much.
Budget
I’m a grad student drowning in loans. I max out at less than two hundred bucks each time I grab a haul (so far my first haul was once last October of 2025 at ~$130 consisting of Blush Avant dildo, BMS Racy mini vibe, Creative Conception dilators, and Hydra lube), so I don’t get a singular toy costing more than that.
Currently writing this 26/3/3, I just ordered my second haul of two toys (G-Squeeze, Glas) and lube (Solina Vera) for ~$85.
Dilating
I had great success dilating with Creative Conceptions’s 5-piece curved dilating kit. The curve accommodates the…well, curve of the vag. And the loop handles make it easy to control easing in and out too. The gradual widening is also good for controlled dilation unlike other dilators that’s just…wham bam the same width all the way. That it combination with it being 5 pieces is a life-saver for it getting me from two fingers to my first dildo. The kit came with a bag, which is awesome because I fit my BMS Racy vibe and Blush Avant in there too.
First dildo
I thought I’d like using the dilators to double as dildos, but they’re hard silicone to help with really easing you open. Dual-density Blush Avant’s soft exterior feels good instead of harsh inside me. The firm inner core keeps it from flopping uselessly. It’s long for my vag, so I can get it to hit the A/P spot. That combined with aforementioned softness is FUN!
First vibrator
I hoped since BMS Racy is small (max width 1"), I could use it as a G-spot vibrator first before I reached dilation to my dildo’s level. However, it gives so much (it’s so flexible) that it doesn’t really dig into my G-spot. At all. So it’s just kind of shaking in my vag without hitting anywhere great. I’m just lying there contemplating my purchase. It has a lot of levels to vibration for the clit, though, so it’s not totally paperweight. If I knew better though, I would’ve gotten more bang for my buck if I just got a bullet vibe for my clit that could be stuck into something else like another dildo or a grind pad.
Lube
Water-based
Astroglide
The first lube that didn’t irritate me half the time. It dries relatively quickly, and having to reapply constantly was an irritating turn-off. Used to grab it off Walmart.
Hydra
Got it off Peepshow Toys along with my dilators and first dildo. Like Astroglide, most of the time it doesn’t irritate me. Honestly at this point I think the occasional irritation/burning is a me problem because it only happens occasionally and has happened with all three lubes I’ve ever tried.
I don’t remember the first lube I tried, just that it kept burning like all the time so I forgot about it years ago. I digress.
Hydra doesn’t dry fast like Astroglide, thankfully. It also smells nice. Because it doesn’t dry as fast, it is stickier. Globbier than Astroglide, which was more watery IIRC. I prefer Hydra over Astroglide.
On the way
As of writing this post 26/3/3, I just ordered a small G-squeeze and a G-spot Glas. The Solina Vera Lube was the suggested lube on Peepshow Toys this time so I got one to try too (I’m running out of Hydra). It’s interesting because it’s white blending to clear so they call it a cum lube. The packaging is not discreet at all as there is a dildo right smack dab on the bottle lol. Unlike Hydra which was somewhat discreet, or at least doesn’t scream cock. I’ve never had aloe-based lube before so this will be interesting. We shall see how these ones go.
