Clitoral vibrators are very popular for a couple of
reasons, the clitoris can be really sensitive and fun to stimulate and
some people can’t orgasm or feel pleasure through vaginal stimulation
alone and need clitoral stimulation to feel pleasure. Really, any kind
of vibrator can be a clitoral vibrator if it’s used on the clitoris.
However, there are vibrators that can’t be used during penetration or
are just better used externally. They don’t necessarily have to be used
on the clitoris, they can be used anywhere (externally) that feels good
to be stimulated. The main categories are bullet, egg or mini vibrators,
pocket rockets, massagers, and wearable vibrators.
Bullet vibrators are small and oblong. They may
come with a push button (cheap ones don’t have any varying levels but
more expensive ones do), or a cord that attaches to a control panel. The
standard shape is that of a bullet, but they’re making more that are
more interestingly shaped like the leaf vibes, je joue fifi, or kandi
kisses (and other make up shaped incognito vibes.). You can also get a
finger bullet like the Trojan brand Vibrating touch that you can get
anywhere condoms are sold. Many bullet and mini vibrators come with
attachments or are attachment accessible. These (usually silicone)
attachments have a unique texture and shape to better stimulate the
clitoris, many are patterned after the rabbit ear part of a rabbit
vibrator. You can get slightly bigger vibrators that can be standard
round shapes, or very unique like the the love bunnies (cute round
bunnies), catmouse (a computer mouse), muse (cartoon bunny), anything
from the toyfriend line, Doc Johnson’s wonderland series, I rub my ducky
(rubber ducky), retro rocket (a rocket ship), zen (stone), forbidden
fruit (apple) and Man Eaters From Outerspace (alien). As toys get bigger
they get more complex. This includes oral sex simulators, the we-vibe,
siri, or various jimmyjane form or luxe vibrators. They come in various
shapes, colors and sizes, some have controls on them, some come with
controllers, some are waterproof, some plug into your Ipod and send you
vibrations based on your music. Many come in silicone, plastic, metal,
TPR, thermoplastic rubber, rubber or jelly, and skin like. Everything
after metal can have chemicals in it that aren’t necessarily healthy for
you and it may be best to use a barrier with it. You can use any of
these during masturbation, or you can have a partner use them on you. If
you can’t orgasm or don’t feel pleasure through vaginal stimulation,
you or your partner can hold it on your clitoris during intercourse.
Pocket Rockets are little, powerful vibrators that
are long and wide with the vibrating part at the end. Most are similarly
shaped, although they come in different colors, however many come with
attachments that can make the stimulation more interesting. Some, like
the iKit, come with many attachments. There are some that are more
unique, like the dolphin clit teaser, or the hello kitty pocket rocket.
Most are plastic, although the attachments can be silicone. Others are
non porous TPR, thermoplastic rubber, or rubber or jelly. You can use
them during masturbation or with a partner.
Massagers are really high powered and larger, and
the vibrating part is at the end. Many plug in like the hitachi magic
wand, essential magic wand, mystic mini wand, pocket fairy, and many
more. Others run on batteries like the mystic wand, fairy wand, and many
others. Some come with attachments as well. They can come in silicone,
plastic, thermoplastic rubber, rubber or jelly, or skin like. You can
use them during masturbation or with a partner
Wearable vibrators include vibrating panties with
remote controls, some attach to Ipods and other music players, some are
underwear with a pocket for a vibrator like the Naughty Noir Remote
Pleasure line, or club vibe. Others you wear inside underwear like the
Club Vibe 2, or the Fetish Fantasy Elite Vibrating Panty. Others are
strap on vibrators shaped usually like butterflies. They can be plastic
like the wing fling, but most are TPR, thermoplastic rubber, or rubber
or jelly like the butterfly effect, venus butterfly, or the interactive
mini dolphin. You can use these during masturbation, or with a partner.
If it has a controller you can have your partner use it while you’re out
and about together. You can also use the strap on ones during
intercourse, this can make clitoral stimulation easier if you need it to
orgasm or feel pleasure.
As you can tell there are a lot of different kinds
of vibrators designed for the clitoris in mind, and lots to choose from.
Whenever you sit down to choose think about what you want as far as
controls, power, design, material and safety, and features like being
waterproof, plugging in, being rechargeable, being quiet, or having
nifty features. Think about what you want to use it for, with yourself,
with a partner, during sex? All of these are really good questions to
ask yourself on your way to finding a good clitoral vibrator.
