As the old saying goes, “different strokes for different folks.” So it should come as no surprise that when it comes to male pleasure toys, the market is full of options. From cock rings to strokers, arousers to prostate massagers, the best sex toys for guys offer a wide range of sensations to tickle and tease — both alone and with a partner.
Despite the stigma attached to sex toys for men, horny dudes have more choice than ever. Thanks to innovations in technology and a growing acceptance by society, guys can now enjoy everything from a hand-held masturbator to a high-tech robot. And, just like sex-shop toys for women, these toys come in every shape, size, design and method of use you can imagine.
Some toys are built to stimulate the glans and shaft of the penis while others are designed to be shoved up the ass (with lube, obviously). In addition to allowing men to find their own pleasure zones, many male sex toys are also designed to elevate heterosexual sex by stimulating both partners.
For those just starting out, sex toys that are easy to use and safe for beginners are the way to go. Strokers — or stroker toys, as they’re known in the community — are one of our favorite starter sex toys for men. They’re basically a soft, squeezable sleeve that you slip on your penis. Stroke them for a light sexy sensation or press harder for more intense sensations.
A stroker like the Tenga Flip Zero is an excellent option for first-time sex toy buyers, according to three of our experts. It’s made from Cyberskin, a super-soft, ribbed material that feels great against the skin and is easily cleanable. The toy’s inside has all sorts of grooves, bubbles and cutouts for extra stimulation.
The Lelo Loki Wave is another great option for men looking for a good prostate massager. It’s shaped to hug the base of your penis and has a curved arm that can reach up into your perineum. The toy is also available in a variety of colors and textures, so you can find the right look for your pleasure needs.
The Autoblow AI is a tech-savvy toy that’s designed to feel just like a real blowjob. It’s capable of stroking, caressing and deepthroating the cock, and is compatible with other toys from its maker. This toy was developed after the makers forced an artificial intelligence to watch 6000 hours of BJ videos, so it can now automatically adjust its stroke pattern and speed for optimal performance. It’s available in 3 sizes to suit your cock, and can even be set to perform a climax.
