You asked:
I want to surprise my wife with a sex toy for her birthday. I casually asked what sort of toy she'd like if she had one, and she said a clitoral toy. But now I've started to look into them, I've realised there's so many! I'm feeling a bit lost with all of the options. Help?
Grace:
There are three main styles of clitoral toy, and each one offers a different kind of vibe (literally). What will be best for her really depends on how she plans to use it and personal preference, so the more information you can get from her the better.
- Air pressure toys
These are having a big moment. They create a suction-like, pinpoint sensation and are best for solo play due to how intense they can be. Some people are obsessed, others not so much. If you want the top-tier option, go for the Womanizer Premium 2. If you're after something more budget-friendly, the INYA Rose is a fan favorite and a good way to test the waters.
- Wand massagers
The OG of the toy world. These are amazing whether you're using it on her or she’s flying solo. They are pretty universally loved, and usually involve rumbly vibrations over a broad surface, almost the complete opposite of suction. The Magic Wand Rechargeable is the gold standard, but there are smaller and cheaper versions if you don’t need the full power.
- Clitoral vibrators
These are usually smaller, often bullet-shaped, and ideal for PIV sex thanks to their compact size. They're not as intense as wands but are super versatile and a great intro to vibes if she’s never used one. My favourite is the We-Vibe Touch X.
If you're still not sure, the best option may be to just get her one of our gift cards. That way you can choose together, making sure you pick something she'll really enjoy.
