To that end — let’s double the fun. If you’re up for it, gently introduce both your index and middle finger. However, as always, start from scratch. Enter, hold, and feel the sensations. Introducing a second finger stretches the vaginal opening a bit, so tread with care. If all feels good, target that G-spot again by curling both fingers upwards and applying gentle pressure on the upper vaginal canal.

Kahn also suggests starting with something that will help you relax. You might grab some lotion or massage oil and ask yourself what it feels like as you work the product into body parts like your hands, arms, and legs, Kahn says, adding that this can help you become “more receptive to pleasurable sensations and touch.”How you do it: Start by lying on the bed on your stomach, using a pillow or two to support your stomach and hips. Use your hands or a toy (or both!) between your body and the pillow to rev things up.

Most people use their fingers to play with their clitoris, but vibrators and other toys can also bring pleasure during solo play. When you orgasm, you’ll feel a tingly sensation along your skin and in your brain.

Pleasure

Firstly, begin by caressing your whole body. Those thighs? Give them some love. Gentle strokes, moving upwards, circling around your breasts – you do you. Or you might try it solo, hate the sensation, and decide against it. At least you know, and were able to work that out without the stress of dealing with another person’s feelings. What are the benefits of anal masturbation? Your target? The cervix. It’s usually perched at the top of the vagina, guarding the entrance to your womb. What is the hymen, you might ask? Well, the hymen is a thin membrane of tissue that partially covers the vaginal opening. It’s a common myth that the hymen needs to be “broken” for you to be able to fit a penis (or a dildo, or anything) in your vagina, and/or that once the hymen is “broken,” you aren’t a virgin anymore. Neither of these things are true. Explore with your finger until you find it. Its location can vary depending on factors like your menstrual cycle, menopause, or childbirth experiences.

Try water play. This can be pleasurable for people with vulvas. If you have a shower head that detaches you can use that and direct it to your clitoris. Generally speaking, virginity is commonly defined as “never having had sex with another person.” Even if you finger yourself and tear your hymen, you won’t be commonly considered to have lost your virginity. Relaxation: Stress and pleasure are like oil and water; they just don’t mix. So, before you start, take a few deep breaths, meditate, or do whatever helps you unwind.

They also make an amazing first-time sex toy for couples, according to Andy Duran, the education director for Good Vibrations. Why? Well, for starters, they can be used to focus vibrations on literally any erogenous zone, he says—from the bum to the bosom and beyond—or for adding G-spot stimulation or clitoral stimulation to penetrative sex. Another bonus: Finger vibrators don’t look like biological penises. “For couples who are eager to avoid using representation toys, the fact that finger vibrators are nonphallic is a win,” he says. Anything you might use on your genitals again should be stored in a clean, dry place. Some people use vibrating toothbrushes as genital vibrators. If you can’t buy a dedicated vibrator, this is fine (although I don’t advise stimulating yourself with the bristle end!) but don’t use it as your regular toothbrush, and store it separately. Also, don’t share toys with other people, and don’t use the same toy to penetrate your vagina and your anus. Just like with olive oil, you can’t tell the virginity of a person just by looking, even SUPER CLOSELY.Sanitation: Anything you put in your vagina should be cleaned in warm, soapy water both before and after (if you’re going to reuse it for any purpose). Additionally, you want to make sure the object won’t leave any infection-causing residues in your vagina (so be careful with cosmetics containers, anything that might have skincare or bath products on it, anything that’s been exposed to cleaning chemicals, anything with a lot of dyes, and food). Some people use vegetables to penetrate themselves; if you do this, it’s safest to put a condom on the item to avoid upsetting the delicate pH balance of your vagina. Taking anal sex slowly, and at a pace that only results in pleasure, rather than discomfort or pain, will help keep you and your anus healthy throughout your experience.’ You might feel more comfortable going to the toilet and having a shower first, to lower your chances of encountering large amounts of poo.
