Lubrication has been used for centuries during sex play and intercourse. There are many references to the use of oils (such as olive and coconut) recorded many centuries ago. The most recent , modern lubricants were originally derived from surgical lubricants designed for use during medical procedures – now they are also used frequently to provide lubrication during sex play.

Personal lubricants can be used to increase pleasure and reduce pain during sexual activity and may be used for lubricating the penis or vagina and a sex toy such as a rabbit vibrator or a pearl rabbit vibrator.

Personal lubricants are particularly useful for intercourse when the receiving partner experiences dryness. It is generally sufficient to apply a good drop of lubricant on the vaginal entrance and, if applicable, the penis being inserted.

Nowadays certain brands of lubricant come with additions such as spermicides and overall lubes come in a variety of formats. There are also water-based lubricants that are water-soluble and are the most commonly used on the market.

Due to their long-lasting effect, older women who – as they age – may suffer from vaginal dryness favour oil-based lubricants. A good option in such cases would be to try silicone-based lubricants which have unique merits when it comes to dryness . Silicon based lubricants do not absorb into the skin, instead the stay on the surface to provide a long-lasting glide.

Please note though that not all silicone-based lubricants are certified condom and latex safe so you are advised to check the label and use as directed. Silicone-based lubricants are not recommended for use with sex toys that are silicone-based. The lubricants ‘melt’ the surface of the toys, making them sticky and causing their material to disintegrate.

There are also lubricants that are made specifically to cause physiological or physical changes to the area applied; these include lubricants that are warming and cause a heating sensation in the skin. Some lubricants are made to increase blood flow to the regions in which they are applied, creating a fuller erection of the penis or clitoris; usually these solutions contain vasodilators to increase blood flow after application.

Finally, there are flavoured lubricants that come in a variety of tastes from strawberry to watermelon.

When you purchase a personal lubricant remember that the solution must be pure and non-toxic as lubricants are easily absorbed by the body – in fact, they’re absorbed more easily than food and beverages are digested because they are soaked in directly via the skin without the benefit of being filtered through the liver and kidneys and thus, it is important to make sure that what you purchase is safe.

Not all vibrators are created equal – oh no – and depending on its shape and functions, vibrators are designed to give you either G-spot, clitoral or vaginal stimulation. In the case of Rabbit Vibrators however – you get a hat-trick of all three in one. However, before you head to your neighbourhood adult shop or online store, read this rundown on vibrator types to see which one fits your own personal preference the best.

Bullets — Bullet vibrators are usually small, discreet and can be used all over the body, internally or externally. They are very versatile and due to their compact size they travel easily. They are often inexpensive and can be enjoyed by women or men. Bullets are typically hard-shelled (either plastic or aluminum) or covered with a soft rubber or jelly coating. Be daring and try them on your nipples, labia, clitoris or G-spot (as long as the bullet has a retrieval cord).

Eggs — Egg vibrators are just the same as bullets, providing the same types of stimulation. However, an egg vibrator is shaped like—you guessed it—an egg.

Traditional Vibrators — When we talk about a traditional vibrator, we mean your basic hard-shelled plastic vibrator, measuring anywhere from four to eight inches long. These vibrators are for both external and internal stimulation. They vibrate at multiple speeds, and these are typically controlled by a knob at the base of the vibrator. Traditional vibrators can run on anything from AA to C cell batteries. They vary quite a bit in power and speed, but the hard shell means you feel more vibration with no actual ‘buffer’.

Realistic Vibrators — A realistic vibrator has a phallic shape, with all the details of a real penis. Realistic vibes vary in both size and shape, but are generally made of silicone, jelly or rubber materials, giving them a softer feel. Realistic vibes can be used internally or externally. They vary in vibration speeds and battery types as well.

Rabbit Vibrators — Rabbit vibrators exist to stimulate your vaginal walls, G-spot and your clitoris, simultaneously. Rabbits have a rotating or oscillating shaft that’s lined with massaging beads or pearls—this is the part you use internally. They also feature vibrating bunny ears that caress your clitoris on the outside. Vibrator rabbits shot to fame following a Sex and the City episode in which Charlotte becomes a recluse following the aquisition of a rabbit vibrator. At sites such as LoveTheRabbit.com you’ll find many jack rabbit vibrator articles, information, raves and reviews and links to the stores that stock them.

G-Spot Vibrators — G-spot vibrators are designed to locate and stimulate your G-spot (although recent articles in the press indicate that this may not exist!). Some G-spot vibrators are hard and rigid while some are soft & flexible. G-spot vibrators feature a slightly curved or hooked head for targeted stimulation.

Clitoral Stimulators — Some vibrators were designed especially for clitoral stimulation (bliss!). A number of of these vibrators are wearable and some are shaped to fit over your pubic bone. You can use these discreet vibes during sex or solo play.

Specialty Vibrators — Some vibrators defy categorization. They still vibrate and provide all sorts of stimulation: They just have unique, innovative and spectacular shapes and functions. Some are cone shaped, others are long and pencil thin while others still are very futuristic in their forms and finishes. There is even a range of vibrators that will throb in time to the music on your MP3 player – they are called the OhMiBod – and are powered by your iPod.

Lubes have been used for centuries during sex play & intercourse. There are references to the use of olive oil and coconut oil recorded many centuries ago. The most recent , modern lubricants were originally derived from surgical lubricants designed for use during medical procedures – now they are also used frequently to provide lubrication during sex play.

1. First at the top of the list is the Rabbit Vibrator. This type of adult toy skyrocketed to fame following an episode of Sex in the City when Charlotte became a virtual recluse after she purchased (and seemingly became addicted to) her own rabbit vibrator. This is hardly surprising given that rabbit vibrators are designed specifically to give sentational and simultaneous clitoral, g-spot and vaginal stimulation – and have therefore left the more traditional dildos, slimline vibrators and clitoral stimulators in the shade. If you’re not familiar with this particular model, visit LoveTheRabbit.com.

2. Next on the list is the Hitachi Magic Wand. The Magic Wand is considered by many as the world’s finest massager. The original Hitachi Magic Wand first appeared in the 1970s as a medical device which is still used today in physiotherapy. The intensive vibrating movements of the device provide an increased blood supply which helps to regenerate tissue and release pain. Outside of physiotherapy however, the Wand is widely known as an excellent sex aid with many physicians recommending it for women to increase genital sensitivity and enhance arousal. Its effectiveness as an orgasm-inducing tool for women has been widely publicized by a variety of sex writers and is endorsed by sex educator and therapist Dr Laura Berman. At LoveTheMagicWand.com you’ll find many Hitachi Wand articles, raves and reviews and links to the many stores that stock these best-selling vibrators.

3. At number three on the best-seller list is Orgasmix. This is a feminine arousal cream that increases the pleasure that a woman feels. It uses a mix of stimulants to create a pleasant tingling sensation when it is applied to the clitoris.

4. A surprise here with ManDelay, a delay cream that allows men to sustain an erection for a longer period taking the number four slot. This cream uses benzocaine – a numbing agent – to allow a man to last longer during intercourse.

I’d say a good night would be had if one owned all four!

If you were of the opinion that using adult toys was just for the very kinky few, think again. Some recent studies from the USA show that the prevalence of women’s vibrator use was found to be 52.5%.

A link was also found between sexual health and vibrator use – with vibrator users significantly more likely to have had a gynecologic exam during the past year and to have performed genital self-examination during the previous month. Vibrator use was also (and significantly) related to several aspects of sexual function (i.e., desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, overall function) with recent vibrator users scoring higher on most sexual function domains, indicating more positive sexual function.

Overall the study showed that the use of vibrators during sexual intercourse is quite common among both men and women and promotes better sexual health. Vibrator use is also linked to less pain, more desire, and richer orgasms with most people who used vibrators on a regular basis not reporting any noticeable or long-lasting side effects.

Today’s widespread use and popularity of vibrators and other sex toys has been attributed by researchers to easier and greater availability, increasing awareness about sex products, as well as a paradigm shift in cultural attitudes. Vibrators are no longer discreetly hidden in bottom drawers or sold in seedy porn shops. They are now hip and happening and attractively packed and stocked by high-end stores and of course online too where shoppers retain complete anonymity when purchasing. For instance, at sites like LovetheRabbit.com visitors can shop in private for the best rabbit habit vibrator and read articles, raves and reviews as well as access links to the stores that stock them.

The ‘who’ and the ‘when’ of vibrator use breaks down like this – surveys have reported that women use vibrators the most during masturbation and the least during actual intercourse. Men usually reported using sex toys the most during foreplay or sex play with a partner with very few men using vibrators during masturbation. The biggest reason for vibrator use among men is generally for ‘fun’ or to help a partner achieve orgasm. Studies on the use of realistic vibrators, designed to resemble the penis, have shown that younger women tend to use vibrators more than older women. Most women start using vibrators in their 20s.

The who and when of vibrator use breaks down thus; surveys have reported that women use sex toys the most during masturbation and the very least during actual intercourse.

Adult toys enhance your sex-life whether with or without a partner. If you think that using something like a rabbit vibrator is kinky or unusual, think again – in a recent UK survey conducted by Cosmopolitan magazine, more than half of the people interviewed admitted using a sex toy in the sack, while a quarter used a webcam.

Marital aids can optimise sexual performance and the variety of the ways and roles sex toys can play in enhancing sexual play is limitless. Sex toys can also allow one to do things that may be difficult to keep up (excuse the pun) for long periods. For instance there is the issue that many men reach orgasm sooner than their partner – having a toy on standby for those times when he is unable to continue after he has orgasmed means he can still bring her pleasure. Alternatively, using a sex toy allows a man to stimulate his partner earlier so that she is already satisfied by the time he ‘joins her’.

Bedroom toys also solve issues related to fatigue and cramping… we all have – at some time or another – been in a situation where our hands or neck have cramped or ached from doing something for a period of time. Certain  toys allow you to continue pleasuring your partner and give you less work and effort. They’re also a great ‘problem solver’ for those times when one partner is horny and the other isn’t.

Sex toys promote good health too, this is due to the fact that orgasms release stress and tension. An orgasm is a great way to start the day and to end it too – many claim that having an orgasm leads to a great night’s sleep. On the whole, people who use sex aids do not use them every single time they engage in sex nor do they always use the same aid on each occasion – so don’t worry about becoming ‘addicted’ to them. Adult toys also allow couples to have phone sex with one another when they have a long distance relationship or have to be separated from one another for a while.

So if you’re beginning to think that if you can’t beat them – you ought to join them, begin your search at sites like LoveTheRabbit.com you’ll find the best the rabbit vibrator articles, information, raves and reviews and links to the stores that stock them.

Sex Tip 1: Treat yourself

It is not possible to have great sex if you do not feel sexy. So treat yourself to a new aftershave or some new lingerie, whatever is needed to put a spring back into your step.

Sex Tip 2: Flirt with each other

Send your partner playful, sexy messages throughout the day. Build up the anticipation by telling him what you are wearing and what you’d like him to do later.

Sex Tip 3: In the mood

Do not undervalue the power of lighting a few candles. Make sure your bedroom is sexy and does not have toys, laundry or paperwork littering it.

Sex Tip 4: Just kiss

Agree to place a ban on sex for a certain length of time and just kiss and focus on foreplay. Abstention from sex has the added ‘plus’ of charging you both up.

Sex Tip 5: Surprise!

Do not wear any underwear and let him/her find out.

Sex Tip 6: Watch a sexy film together

It does not have to be porn for it to be sexy. Some favourites are Nine and a Half Weeks, Body Heat and Last Tango in Paris.

Sex Tip 7: Buy a new toy

Nothing spices up a dull sex life like a new adult toy. Begin your search at sites like LoveTheRabbit.com where you’ll find the best bunny vibrator articles, information, raves and reviews and links to the stores that stock them. Shopping together online for something sexy and the anticipation of your package’s arrival will create a new ‘buzz’ in your bedroom.

Sex Tip 8: All change! Position that is!

Visit Google – type in ’sex position’ then click on ‘Images’ – I guarantee you that something will catch your eye – enough said!

Sex Tip 9: Fantasy Island

A little role-playing can be fun and do not limit yourselves to the bedroom. Start the fun before you even get home by meeting at a restaurant or bar and pretending you just met.

Sex Tip 10: Get out of the bedroom

Sometimes a change of locale is all that’s needed to spice up the action. Try having sex somewhere unexpected; in your spa or swimming pool late at night, in the back of the car… just be careful not to be caught!

If any of the ideas makes you feel nervous, then that is the one you ought to try first! The greatest advantage of being with someone for a long time is that you can both fully trust and feel safe with one another – so do not hesitate to try something out of your normal comfort zone, especially when you know it is going to spice your sex life right up!
