Engaging topic analysis of Glass dildo:

Glass.
Is it easy to use glass dildos with lube?

Could an expensive glass piece ever be worth it?
I was drawn to this in particular: link I love glass, but I don't know if I'd ever feel ok spending that much on an insertion-only toy. What do you..

Another glass safety test
Because there are still concerns about the safety of glass, I took it upon myself to test a SSA glass toy in ways that exceeded the design...

glass
are certain glass dildos more firm than others?

How easily does glass slide in vaginally compared to other materials?
how easily does glass with some girth, say 4 3/4, insert vaginally compared w/ other materials?

You should start with the type of toy you prefer most, minus vibrating. Do you prefer anal or vaginal?

Glass toys are good for vaginal and anal use since they can be sterilized.

I would say, go a little thinner than what you're used to because the first thing you learn about glass is that it's harder and more solid than most materials (except metal and wood).

Icicles no 17 was my first glass dildo. I would recomend that one. The head is big but since the shaft is slim it worked out and was not to much for me. If you are looking at anal plugs this one by luxotiq is a great choice. The tip and gradual taper are a gentle intro to glass.

As a guy I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I will tell you to consider that glass toys are very hard and unforgiving. I learnt the hard way when I bought my wife three very pretty glass toys based on they're looks. She tried all three of them for me one night and quickly proclaimed she hated them. Now other than coming out for pictures as props, they sit unused in a box in the back of the closet. If you like hard, then consider size and if you want smooth or textured and then go from there.
Good luck!

Who was providing the movement?

I don't mean to be nosey, but who's doing the thrusting can make a big difference. Glass is a wife-only material in our house. My husband doesn't know his own strength and is too used to going to town with (soft) silicone, so he's only allowed to watch when there's glass involved.

I will definitely take that into consideration. I usually prefer wider toys but I'll work my way up to that. Thanks!

I looked up the icicles no 17 and it looks nice! I like the curve of it. Do you prefer the straight or curved glass toys? Are the curved ones more uncomfortable if you are new to glass?

Thanks! I will probably try out one at a time, just in case I don't end up liking the glass toys as much as I thought I would!

Glass is definitely one of my favorite toy materials. Try the Nubby G Wand to start. That was my first glass toy and I fell in love with it. Just remember to communicate with your partner if they are using glass on you because it can get a little rough

This was my very first piece of glass and I love it Blue Swirl. My 2nd piece was Taffy Tickler The Taffy is more slender then the Swirl and I prefer the Taffy but I like them both. Good Luck on your glass hunt

Thanks! I looked up the taffy tickler and couldn't find the one you were talking about. I did find the blue swirl and I love the color and that it's straight, not curved.
