How to Use a Glass Dildo What Does a Glass Dildo Feel Like?
Looking to glam up your sex toy
collection? Nothing says sophistication like... a glass
dildo. Glass dildos or glass
wands can add an extra spark (and, might I add, smoothness) to your sex
life. Often viewed as the underdog of dildos, glass wands offer an array of new
sensations and experiences. Besides being visually stunning, glass dildos also
allow for effortless penetration and provide an ideal way to indulge in sensory
and temperature play.
Now, I know what you're
thinking…"Uh, what if the glass breaks inside of me (or my partner)?"
Well, I've got (good) news for you: Many glass toys aren't really glass at all
or are made with specially treated glass for durability. In fact, most are made
out of acrylic, Lucite, or Pyrex (which is known for being sturdier than
regular or untreated glass — think: Pyrex casserole dish!), a special material
designed to withstand extreme temperatures and mild bumps, according to sex toy
retailer Babe land. Others may be labelled as borosilicate glass, a type of
glass that's more resistant to thermal shock — and thus less likely to break —
than any other common glass. (Pyrex is actually a brand of borosilicate glass.)
Many glass dildos (such as this collection of tempered glass dildos sold by
adult store Ella Paradis) are not only beautifully crafted, but they're also
thoroughly reinforced and shatterproof.
Designed in a variety of colors,
textures, and sizes, glass toys don't have the type of bend and give that a
silicone dildo has, but they do offer a sensation of firmness and rigidity (if
that's your jam... literally) and can be used either vaginally or anally,
depending on the toy. With the proper maintenance and care, a glass dildo can
last a lifetime (unlike your favorite vibrator — which, yes, needs to be
retired at some point). And, if you do ever decide to say goodbye, glass toys
are recyclable, making them a super eco-friendly toy choice. Because they're
made out of glass, they're super easy to clean (just use a mild antibacterial
soap and water or toy cleaner, if you have any) and are also nonporous, which
means bacteria can't permeate the surface of the toy. (Just make sure you clean
it after every use and store it in a soft bag.) All these perks make glass
dildos one of the safest and most sanitary types of toys to use, which is great
for those with sensitive skin (🙋) or who are prone to
changes in their vag pH balance.
Here's a tip that'll totally heat
things up (or cool them off): Glass
toys can be heated or cooled for a new experience. Unlike some other
materials, glass toys are incredibly temperature-responsive and can serve as a
great way to explore temperature play. Simply submerge your toy in either warm
or cool water to change its temperature. You can even pop it in the freezer for
a few hours. Word of caution: You shouldn't use extreme measures to quickly
heat up the toy. Usually, glass toys should not be microwaved," she says.
"This does not work well for glass and may lead to the toy
shattering." As an added safety precaution, it's also important to test
your toy's temperature on your arm before using it on yourself or your partner.
Because glass isn't flexible
(especially when compared to silicone), some may assume that glass toys offer a
limited range of sensations, but that is not the case.
"There are two things I love
about glass toys. "One is how accessible they can be. Not only can you use
them in various temperatures but also glass toys are useful on all parts of
your body — not only on the inside. Because glass toys can hold temperature,
they allow you to explore sensation all over the body and to redirect pleasure
from being a genital experience to a full-body one."
While glass sex toys are often
intended for internal massage of the almighty G and P spots, they also make for
wonderful external massagers. Feel free to run it along with your nipples, clitoris,
butt, or any other of your hot spots during foreplay for thrilling sensations.
You can even pair it with a vibrating toy (such as a bullet vibrator) for extra
excitement.
Glass toys are also "a
fantastic way to experience pleasure and explore for people who are disabled or
who may be having an experience of a changing body. This may be helpful for
those who have recovered from COVID and still struggle with some sensation or
any other chronic illness."
Why? Well, if you were suffering
from any sort of external aches or pains, warming a glass dildo and then
massaging it over the affected area can help to alleviate any aches or pains.
Also, if you're having difficulty reaching orgasms internally, the weighty feel
of glass toys can be used to apply firmer pressure compared to the softer and
more flexible pressure that silicone toys offer. Additionally, because glass is
nonporous and free of chemicals, it won't harbour any harmful bacteria (very
important for those with allergies, chemical sensitivities, or reduced
immunity). The glass coating is also soft to the touch and gentle on the
delicate tissues of the genital area.
