Vibrator Advice - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

A male member would like to seek some advice on vibrators from everywoman in the Ladies Lounge.

Quote:

Hey all,
Me and my SO have been trying, but have so far been unable to get her to reach a climax. To that extent I've been considering getting her a vibrator for a while, but I can't see myself entering a sex store by myself quite yet. What I was wondering is have any of you ever bought from an online store? any ideas on what to look for and what to avoid? I realize that vibrators themselves are a hugely preference based item, but any tips on what to start with?

I live in Canada, so a store from up north is preferred, but if there's an excellent one from down south the northern folk just can't beat, I wouldn't mind paying the extra shipping.

Looks like we already have a response, from another male member - thanks Martian!

I don't know much about vibrators, but if the guy is in the Toronto area he can go to The Condom Shack, which is a highly regarded sex store here. If he's not in Toronto or doesn't want to do his shopping face to face, he can also use Pink Cherry. Magpie's gotten a couple of vibes from them, and seems quite pleased with the results.

Surely there are some ladies out there with some advice, too...

If a magic wand doesn't do the trick, I don't know what would. The Adam&Eve version is cheaper and for me is plenty powerful. Sometimes, too powerful.

They can be found on amazon and on drugstore.com.

Looking right now and they have the Hitachi Magic Wand on sale right now. There are attachments that can be bought for it as well. I know shipping to Canada can be costly, but at least you can start looking into this.

I have a smaller vibe that is my everyday vibe, but I don't know what its called. We bought it about 8 years ago.

The Magic Wand is amaaaaazing. I love mine. It's more durable than any other plug-in vibe I've ever had. Highly recommended.

Another canadian store that I've used after visiting their physical store in Toronto is Good For Her - Vibrators, Sex Toys, Porn For Women, Sex Workshops and Free Shipping!

Does she have any stimulation spots she's expressed already? If she likes gspot stimulation with fingers and foreplay, I might recommend something like that.

if she is more about just something different... I would ask the store clerks, and then order online afterwards if you are more comfortable.

Another guy weighs in...

We like Venus Envy, a friendly, helpful, non-sleazy sex store run by women for women and men. They have a store in Halifax, and Ottawa and do online as well.

And yet another Toronto guy weighs in..

Another addition to the vibrator post in the Ladies Lounge.

Come As You Are - Welcome to Come As You Are Co-operative - sex toys, books and DVDs from Canada's co-operative sex shop

It's where I buy all my sex toys (when in Toronto). They have a great website and they are very cool in person at their bricks and mortar location on Queen Street West.

I highly recommend.

I also second amonkie's suggestion.

Thank you dear Ladies. One can never have too much stimulation or toys!

Our male member from the OP expresses his thanks:

Me and my SO flipped through all of the pages suggested, we ended up going with a cheaper beginner end model to try things out. I bought the one she'd been eyeing as a premature valentines gift. thanks very kindly for your help ^-^
