'Realistic' vs Realistic Dildos.

Contributor: eri86 eri86
Dildos that look to much like the real thing, look like creepy disconnected penises, and sometimes testicles. But 'realistic' dildo's just look like toys to make you feel goo.

But for me the overall aesthetic of the toy is a big part of whether I like it and even want to use it. I don't want my dildos to look to real.

How about you?

I agree that if it looks 'too' realistic (like the porn star dildos) then it kind of weirds me out. So I prefer toys that look pretty realistic but are also simple and easy to tell it is fake, like they are pretty smooth with veins in random places.

I'm actually fairly flexible. what weirds me out is when the balls are 1/2 cut off.

I voted for the 'realistic' ones but honestly even some of those are too much for me.

I have never seen a dildo that looked "too realistic."

Hyper-realistic dildos, with pinkish heads and colored veins and the like, are a bit too much for me. But I do enjoy "realistic toys," and things like balls and solid flesh tones don't bother me.

The VixSkin dildos are at the perfect level I think, as they look real enough without dipping into the uncanny valley of sex toys. Just one more reason I love them so much.

Those true-to-life dildos freak me out too. I stay away from them. I just want a shape that works.

My least favorite thing is probably the fake "Skin" color.

Wait... fake pubes are my least favorite thing, but fake skin color is a close second.

I like if it has the general shape of a penis but in a fun color like the O2 revolution or the Mustang TieBright.

Aesthetics are important but feel is another big factor.

I agree, really realistic dildos can be a bit creepy. I've noticed they tend to be made out of less safe material.

I like it either way. What I don't like is a toy that is supposed to be "realistic" but the veins are in some weird crosshatch pattern or something. Also a lot of dildos that try to mimic the real thing are made of really bad materials.

Well, it depends on if I want a realistic dildo or not? They certainly don't creep me out, though...

It really depends, I have a realistic dildo with balls and a veined shaft from Vixskin, but sometimes I want something less realistic and harder. It really all depends.

I love the ones where it looks like the veins were drawn on with a marker. Those are hilarious.

Dildos with pubes make me laugh.

Not a fan of the realistic colored ones, they're just gross. I feel like I'm in a taxidermist shop haha

I don't like overly veined ones, or dildos with fake hair.

I like the realistic ones for my gender identity but the others are fine too, I usually go with what ever my partner prefers

if it looks too real its a put off thats y i always stick to ones that have some sort of coloring to them. i would not even buy a flesh tone one

I like ones that are designed for g-spot stimulation and have a lot of texture so this automatically means they won't be too realistic looking.

I don't mind either kind, but some of the more realistic ones can look kind of gross. Especially if they are made with crappy material, or worse yet, have fake pubic hair. Ugh.

I dislike the ones that are too realistic, in fact abstract toys are preferred to semi-realistic to me.

For me, the extremely realistic ones are just a turn off. Some of it has to do with the flesh tone colors, they just weird me out, where the semi-realistic ones in bright colors are more 'wow that looks fun.'

I'm also in the boat of too realistic can be a bad thing when it comes to testicles that aren't fully formed and fake hair, ugh.
