A guide to dildo sizes
Are you getting the most out of your playtime?
When it comes to bagging your dream dildo, a plentiful market means that there are no limitations; you can experiment to your heart's content. But, if you’re yet to find your perfect match, which features should you be on the lookout for? If it’s one quick answer you’re after, we’re sad to say that there’s no ‘one size fits all’ to this. Sure, there’s a playmate out there for everyone, but your final choice all comes down to the boxes you’re looking to fill - or should we say, holes you’re looking to fill. Perhaps you’ve been longing to make one of your dirtiest fantasies a reality, or maybe you’re a beginner who wants to take a step out of their comfort zone and stretch themselves to the limit. Either way, this guide to dildo sizes will bring you one step closer to the ride of your life.
Understanding dildo measurements
Length
The overall length of a dildo will be a measurement from base to tip, however the insertable length is arguably more important to look out for. For those that have a taste for King Kong over a smaller dong, a huge dildo could measure up to 22.5 inches, however the amount that you can safely fit inside you could differ. If this sounds like your idea of heaven, take a peek at our blog on how to use large dildos like a pro. We’ll wait…
Some may prefer to start off with something a little more lifelike, take our realistic dildos as an example, with complete customisation allowing you to create your perfect match. Regardless of your preferences, be sure to use plenty of lube the next time you get down ‘n dirty, so that you can experience total pleasure that’s as safe as it is satisfying.
Girth
A dildo’s girth is the circumference around the shaft, from light stimulators to those that really give you a good stretch. The best way to find your dildo preference is to discover what feels the most comfortable the next time you decide to get a little handsy; see how many fingers it takes to satisfy your needs, and after you’ve found your perfect number, measure the circumference all the way around. Each dildo’s sizing will be specified in the product description, so whether you choose to match up, or maybe you’re feeling more adventurous, deciding on the lucky winner is completely up to you.
Anal dildo sizes
For anal play, your desired size may differ to those that are inserted inside the vagina. Or perhaps not, we’re not judging. If you’ve never used a dildo for this, you might want to start off with something smaller, instead reaching for anal beads and butt plugs to fill your hole. Once you’ve reached a point where you’re gagging for more, start off with dildos that have a smaller length and girth, using plenty of lube as you work your way up to the big boys.
Sizing for beginners
If you’re new to the world of dildos, it’s easy to feel as though you have to match up to the ‘oh so perfect’ world of porn, thinking you need to satisfy a partner’s needs or comparing yourself to your friends. As we mentioned from the get go, and we really want to reiterate this, there is no one size fits all when it comes to dildo hunting. Ultimately, it all comes down to what helps you to reach your climax, and this is guaranteed to differ from person to person. Start slow and make any changes to sizing gradually, being sure to lube up each time you’re in need of a stretch. And if anything starts hurting, never force yourself to continue. You should also make sure that you’re in a good mindset before you start playing, as your ability to stretch will vary depending on how aroused you are. So relax, get comfortable, and enjoy the ride of your life with your new toy.
