But most men see them as threats that tend to make them irrelevant. The good news here is that, these toys are far from being a replacement for you if indeed you will be humble enough to find reasons I say this in this write-up.
According to a therapist, Mrs. Gladys Imeh, s*x toys are pleasure toys that can be used to fulfill a woman’s sexual needs when her partner is not available or during intercourse for new experiences and sensations that could stimulate multiple orgasms.
In simple words, these toys are not only relevant when men are not around, they are good for fun discoveries.
If you are wondering why these tools have become must-haves for many ladies these days, the following tips will convince you more,
Highlights Self-love
Self-love is very important where sensuous feeling is concerned. Along with being a great way to unwind, solo-play, according to experts, can help women feel comfortable and familiar with their bodies. In addition, loving one’s body is a sure-fire way to find out exactly what one likes and where she likes it. Although some men feel threatened by their partner using these toys, it is important to reassure them that they are not a replacement and that you are not dissatisfied with them. In other words, women should take it upon themselves to let their men know that once you as a woman knows how to pleasure yourself, he can learn how to pleasure you, too.
“Let’s take for instance the common vibrators, such as the First Time Jack Rabbit Waterproof Vibrator, which stimulates both the clitoris and the g-spot for multiple sensations. Watching how a woman feels while using it will not only work well for her, but will be a good lead to you, as a man the next time you are faced with the same assignment,” says Imeh.
Increases their libido
Women who use vibrators may feel higher levels of sexual desire and arousal due to experiencing sexual feelings more often, and in turn could begin to crave more intimacy.
In a survey of 2,000 women by The Centre For Sexual Health Promotion, recently, it was found that women using vibrators experienced higher levels of desire, lubrication and arousal, and rather than diminishing interest in s*x, it boosts a woman’s libido and sexual drive. You wouldn’t want your woman to lose interest in love-making, so, why not enjoy what technology has offered as a helping hand?
Experimenting in many of these toys can be good for your libido. Examples, the ones called Nipple Suckers are perfect for increased sensitivity and ideal for those who want to stimulate their nipples at the same time as focusing on down under.

Relieves stress and improves sleep
Stress and lack of sleep often come hand in hand and one way to avoid both is through the power of orgasm.
A hormone called Oxytocin is released during orgasm, which evokes feelings of contentment and calmness and reduces anxiety. This ‘love hormone’ also helps aid a restful sleep, so you will feel refreshed the next day ready to repeat the process again. Since most intimacy do not end in orgasm, it is paramount that a way to achieve this be embarked on especially with the benefits attached. Try to relieve stress via a sensual massage, using a massage oil and you will discover the magic that can come with it.

As much as we love our partner, and making love with them is intimate and irreplaceable, going the extra mile with these toys should not be any big deal.
They do not only make women achieve orgasm much easier than any organic stimulation could provide, using these toys will open your eyes as a man to new exciting possibilities and help you discover much more about yourself.
