I usually don't have a problem with it but sometimes it can be a bit awkward.

Things like cock rings I like throwing into the mix pretty quickly but some of the other stuff I like to ease into.

One of my better female friends is really into domination and she has a whole chest of whips, chains, leather masks, ball gags, everything you can think of. Generally she waits to let guys know about it because many guys in the past would run out after she told them.

I didn't have to talk her into pegging...it wasn't that hard ^.^
Usually a Skype chat or two can get couples on the same page about toys.

I usually wait a few times until I bring it up. Some guys are weird about toys.

We have such a cool and open relationship that I would never even consider the possibility of feeling uncomfortable about it.

I think it depends on how long you've been together and what toys.

I find that its a turn on when I mention that I'm a toy reviewer. People always want to see whats in my chest, so it works a little diffrent for me. But even still, I would use that as a topic to help break the ice and let them know ahead of time this is what I'm in to. Wear it like a badge, loving sex toys is okay

I have only had this talk with one partner (who I'm currently with and hope to be with forever). I've never been this open with anyone else.

I love my toys, so I have no problems with telling people upfront that I have a truck load of them. If they can't deal with me using them with them, then they know where to find the door!

I only starting using toys in my current relationship because there was a period of time when we couldn't have sex. Because of that, it wasn't really difficult to introduce because toys were a way of keeping things interesting. I've never had to introduce toys to a brand new relationship, so I don't really know how that would be for me.

This is the first person I've used toys with and he is my fiance. I never used them before him.

I only have a problem with how to introduce my collection to a new girl I mean we (EF community and reviewers) are already know pretty much about this stuff but a random 'vanila' girl will maybe have the wrong idea about this, I don't know. It's going to be her loss if she sees it that way. So a talk is definitely good to see how they react rather than.. drumroll.. and opening the drawer... drawers..

Never had this problem since I don't date much but I think I'd only feel awkward about it if one of two things were true 1) The toy in question cannot be sterilized and has been used before OR 2) The toy in question was purchased with the intent on using on the previous partner and I were to picture that person whenever I use it.

I'm a man and I was the one that got my fiance to try them, so no I don't feel weird.

The only person who I have ever used toys with is my current boyfriend I wouldn't even use them with my ex husband. But when I was casually dating I never showed or told anyone about my toy collection.

Some toys that push the kink cause a little apprehension if they're a surprise because you never know if they really like it or they're just pretending not to hurt your feelings.

I feel a little weird about it the first time, but only with certain people who don't really go too much into this kind of thing.

Yes, it's best to discuss it first. To feel the vibe, so to speak. I wouldn't want scare them away with my toy-box.

If we are trying something new it can be a bit awkward, but we always laugh if anything.

At first I am nervous to admit, I have a collection of sexual products. After I tell my partner that... they are not surprised when I add a toy to the bedroom.

I find its better to talk a little bit and see how they react...surprises are good sometimes too.
