There are a huge choice of sex toys and their variations - vibrators, dildos, dongs, strap-on, clitoral stimulators, etc. (for women); masturbators, penis pumps, sleeves, love dolls, etc. (for men).

The main purposes of sex toys are to help adults achieve sexual gratification whenever they want, wherever they are and as often as they want it. An already known saying is - Sex with a person is never this generous! Though they can never replace the real thing, sex toys weren’t designed to actually do that. It is not about replacing, it is about completing, diversifying and refreshing. The idea is that sex toys can give to one something that a human can not (vibrations, pulsations, warming, etc.). The same can be said about the real sex which is about two people who care for each other and can bear children together and forge a life together, which a toy can not provide.

Adult toys also have educational purpose as well. A vibrator for instance, enables to figure out the erogenous spots of the female body that require more stimulation for the best results.

Statistics show that men masturbate more than women, whereas women invest more in sex toys. This is why toys for women are sold better! Also lots of young people tend to enjoy the use of sex toys as they are more adventurous and more sexual related than older generations.

What about sex toys harm? There is a general belief that there are really no side effects, but this refers more to the physical part. The psychological one reveals the fact that they are addictive in nature! Most of the women who tried sex toys lost their interest in their husbands. On the other hand the advantage of using sex toys is obvious - they prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS; they bring sexual relief from sex related stresses which prevent some sex related crimes.
