Personally I tend to like something with a little more flexibility like silicone, over more rigid materials like glass/metal/etc. However, there are times when a totally rigid toy can come in handy and given my partner prefers that somewhat it's great to have both around so we can both enjoy what we like the most.

I enjoy both but for going deeper, flexible is the way to go.

I like something that is a little stiff but has some flexibility and give as well.

Both! I've only tried glass and silicone dildos, and they've both been great in different ways. I've been eyeing Nob Essence toys though, and I have this conviction that wood toys will just be the best. Can't wait to get my hands on one and test out my theory.

I like both but I tend to go more toward the soft and flexible.

I love silicone toys with a good deal of texture!

I use dildos for oral and for anal. For oral, flexible with a soft, realistic texture is better. For anal, more rigid is better. It's always important to choose the right tool for the job, right?

I like Silicone dildos that are not too flexible, I want total control over my toys.

I've only had silicone so far, but I've got a glass toy on the way and I'm excited to try it!

Flexible, I'm not a fan of getting poked by something really firm.

I really prefer my insertables to have squish, but I've found that glass isn't half bad, not my favorite material though.

I love glass for their coolness and firmness. But I still like silicone, too.

Flexible feels so much more better.

I picked both because I don't have a preference.

I love glass and metal but I also love having a good flexible dildo.

I've never tried metal/glass dildos and I really don't want to. They seem really cold and unforgiving and I personally don't like that.

Depends on my mood: for thrusting I often like glass, but then sometimes want something semi-soft, but firm like silicone.

For clitoral stim.: Definitely something squishy and flexible.
