Have A Better Orgasm With These 12 Sex Toys

Last year, BBC released an article entitled “The Mystery Of The Female Orgasm,” and it got a bit of flak from readership. Why? Because apparently, it’s not really all that different than the male one, and the advice surrounding how to have a better and more intense orgasm is actually pretty straightforward. There’s no reason why anyone should be treating it like a Sasquatch sighting; scientifically, the female orgasm is nothing but a release of tension in the pelvic area, due to stimulation of the clitoris and the vulva. For men, it’s the same type of pelvic muscle release, just resulting from stimulation of the penis.

If you’ve done any kind of reading up on the subject, you’ve probably encountered the terms, “clitoral orgasm,” “vaginal orgasm,” and “blended orgasm,” which is a combination of the two. While these are the three most common ways women climax, there are tons of other factors that play into it. Some women prefer textures, while others prefer smooth finishes; some are way too sensitive for intense vibrations, and others need it. Bio-individuality, people — it’s really just a matter of what feels good to you. Here’s a list of the best and most successful toys in all different categories, so you can find your niche and, consequently, your happy place.
