Vibrators aren't just for 20 somethings

Vibrators aren't just for 20 somethings

As women age, the way we think about pleasure and the road map to orgasms change. If having the same sex you've had for years is no longer cutting it- then it’s time for a revamp. Enter the vibrator


As we age our estrogen and testosterone levels decline and this may slow down our arousal and libido. Blood no longer moves quickly to the genitals and additional stimulation may be essential in unlocking our desire. Most women need direct stimulation of the clitoris to orgasm. When you were younger manual or oral stimulation may have been all you needed. But if you are finding it harder to orgasm or it takes you longer than it used to, then a vibrator can help. 


Did you know the clitoris actually has receptors that specifically respond to vibration? The vibration increases blood flow to the genital area. The main job of sex toys is to elevate pleasure beyond what solo efforts and an ardent partner may achieve. We need more time, a more relaxed body and vibrations from you guessed it- sex toys! 


Why are orgasms and intimacy important? Sexual pleasure is important for a womens physical and emotional health. When a man or woman orgasms it not only feels good but it can also be profoundly relaxing. Orgasms decrease stress and help you sleep better. Plus, levels of the hormone prolactin go up after an orgasm, which increases bonding with your partner.  Experiencing pleasure together can strengthen a relationship. 


Ready to buy your first vibrator? Start with considering what type of stimulation you prefer. We offer toys that focus on the clitoris, g-spot and even both. Look at the shape, and intensity levels. Stay away from cheap knock-offs. The sex industry is notoriously un-regulated. If you shop with us then no need to worry. We only sell “Top Drawer” products- beautiful, body safe toys from trusted brands. Read more about our product standards here.


If you still are on the fence consider this- sex toys are just a tool. Think of all the things we use every day to make our lives easier. It is never too late in life to spice things up. You deserve a healthy and fulfilling intimate life. Consider this your permission. Till next time!
