Have you not faced this very same predicament: "My girlfriend and I want to try out a vibrator but we are very confused as to what to buy. It would be her first experience with a vibrator."

What do we do? Which one to buy? How many choices? So many styles? So many varieties? - For the beginner, selecting the first vibrator can be a daunting task. Luckily, for beginners as well as experienced adult toy users there are some tried and true vibrators that work well.

Vibrators

There are three main categories of vibrators: clitoral vibrators, G-Spot vibrators and combination vibrators. It all boils down to making your own choice and the first issue to consider is what kind of stimulation you enjoy most during the course of your normal sexual activities. Do you have clitoral orgasms? G-Spot orgasms? Or do you like it best when both of these areas are stimulated at the same time? Having determined this, the first step is done and now you can start searching for vibrators within the category you think will best meet your needs.

However, when unsure of the kind of stimulation you'd like - it is safe to start with something basic and inexpensive - like a traditional vibrator. These are basic vibrators that can be used in a variety of ways and provide stimulation to multiple areas. These allow you to experiment and determine the type of simulation that gets you going and to later upgrade to fulfil your specific pleasures.

Good Vibrators for Beginners

For the uninitiated, we have listed several vibrators below. These need to be considered only as recommendations for beginners. The provided list is by no means complete or exhaustive; it just embodies the spirit and function of the category in which they're listed. For example, if you decide on a G-spot vibrator which unfortunately is not listed below, then we recommend that you go for it.

Clitoral Vibrators

Clitoral vibrators offer direct clitoral stimulation, vaginal stimulation or both. Some direct clitoral simulation vibrators are I-Vibe Pocket Rocket, Miti Mite, Micro Pleasure Egg and Hitachi Magic Wand. While these are designed to stimulate just the clitoris to the exclusion of being inserted - they can be and are inserted by many women. However, this is not their primary function. For beginners who are fairly certain that they want direct clitoral stimulation, these vibrators are all good choices. The second type of clitoral vibrator is one that can be inserted, while its primary type of stimulation is still clitoral. Some vibrators that provide direct clitoral stimulation in addition to vaginal stimulation are Venus Vibrator, 7 Inch Flex and Gypsy Vibe.

G-Spot Vibrators

Vibrators such as Amethyst Shimmer, Seductive Pleasure and Cosmic Invader are meant to directly stimulate the G-Spot. For those that prefer G-Spot stimulation, these vibrators offer a great choice as their curved shafts allow you to apply pressure to the anterior surface of the vagina with very little effort. If you are unsure about G-spot simulation, please keep in mind that these can also be used directly on the clitoris. The beauty of most adult toys is that they can be creatively used to stimulate multiple areas.

Combination Vibrators

Vibrators that stimulate more than one area at the same time are known as Combination vibrators. Some prime choices are Jack Rabbit Vibrator, Rabbit Pearl and Impulse Jack Rabbit. All these have a rotating shaft for G-Spot stimulation, a vibrating "bunny" for clitoral stimulation and rotating beads for external vaginal stimulation. Since these features can be used independently, this is a boon for the beginner who is not sure which kind of stimulation will work best for them. Some women find that the combination of features too intimidating and feel that they cannot take so much stimulation all at once. The independent working features of these three allows these women to control the degree of stimulation. These three Combination Vibrators have been mentioned as they have received most favorable responses from beginners. Of course, if you're a beginner and you're certain that you want a combination vibrator but one of the other brands appeals to you more you should go with that. Do what feels right. If something appeals to you emotionally then go with it. However, do keep in mind that Jack Rabbit and Rabbit Pearl have sold well over a million and Impulse Jack Rabbit while being relatively new appears to have a lot of potential.

Adult Toys are Flexible

While we have attempted to provide information that leads you to your first vibrator; remember there are no rigid rules and innovation and creativity is the name of the game. While there are vibrators and dildos designed for specific types of stimulation, most can be used in any way, shape or form you can imagine. There is no limit or boundaries when it comes to adult toys or the way they're used. So take your own calling and choose a toy that is intended to do what you want it to do. Always keep in mind that what you find under one category has many uses in another - the limiting factor as well as the creator is you.
