In the world of sex toys, perhaps none are as ubiquitous as the dildo. There have been versions of dildos for centuries and everyone has at least a rough idea of how they are used. Dildos come in all shapes and colors, but while you may understand how a regular dildo works, you may be perplexed about how to use a double dildo.
Made with two insertable ends, a double dildo is used for partnered and solo play. And while you might assume they're made for two women, they can be used with couples of all genders. If you want to spice things up with a double dildo, we'll guide you through what you need to know and help you get to know this intriguing toy better.
What types of double dildos are there
Similar to regular single-ended dildos, there are many types of double-ended dildos. They are usually made of silicone as it is the most flexible material. In order for a double dildo to be used for solo play, it needs to be made from a flexible material so you can position it easily for both vaginal and anal play.
However, if you are using a double dildo with your partner, you can find an inflexible one made of glass or metal. Since these versions cannot be moved, you may need to practice a little to make the insertion work for both people.
How to use a double dildo
Now, let's get into the details of how to use a double dildo.
To play alone
Just because you're alone doesn't mean you can't experience all the pleasure you desire. While some people love their suction cup dildos, having a double dildo for solo play can take a little extra effort, but once you get the hang of it, it's worth it.
First, start by finding the right dildo for solo play. Think about other dildos you've used, whether they're large or textured. Which ones gave you the most pleasure?
You will be responsible for inserting it into the vagina and anus and, therefore, you should choose a dildo that is as flexible as possible. Both rubber and silicone are good options as they bend but do not tear or break in the process.
Once you have the right dildo, test it in your hands first. Play around a bit, manipulating it to see what angles it works at. As flexible as double dildos are, they don't fold in half, so some movement will be required.
A crucial step that needs to happen before you even start using a double dildo is training your anus. You cannot start immediately by inserting a large dildo. Instead, you should go through a series of training or try anal play with your partner. This way, when you use a double dildo alone, there will be no problems.
After discovering your double dildo, the next step is lubrication. Lots of lube. Your vagina can be lubricated naturally, but extra lubricant is always recommended. Plus, with your anus, you'll need plenty of lubrication to make insertion easier.
Now, if you're not sure about using a double dildo for double penetration, it's okay to just use it in the vagina. One of the advantages of a double dildo is that it is very long, so you can have much deeper penetration than with a regular dildo alone.
If you're ready for the next step, insert one side of the dildo into your vagina. Then, bend the dildo so that it reaches your anus. Insert it slowly. The beauty of having a double dildo is that you can keep experimenting with it. Maybe you find that you need more lube, or maybe the one you bought isn't as flexible as you wanted. Take your time, take it slow and have fun.
For lesbian/gay couple games
If you're in a lesbian relationship, introducing a double dildo can open up a world of possibilities. Just because you prefer the company of women doesn't mean you don't also enjoy being penetrated. A double dildo can bring two women closer together, both physically and emotionally.
While the hardest part of using a double dildo is finding the right position, this is a little easier when two women are involved. Before you begin, however, you may want to practice what these positions are when the dildo is inserted, as it can be difficult to move it.
Play around, using each other's knowledge to determine how you want to be penetrated with a double dildo. There will be some physical restrictions to consider, such as the length of the dildo, so keep that in mind.
Once you have an idea of how to use a double-headed dildo, it's time to reach for the lube. The importance of lubricant when it comes to sex toys cannot be overemphasized. Make sure you and your partner are ready, then assume the agreed position. It's usually best for one person to insert the dildo first to ensure it's comfortable. Then the other person can sort it out.
Silicone double dildos are ideal to start with because they are very flexible. You can position it for the best pleasure for both people. If you're ready to move on to the next stage, you could try double glass or metal dildos. These materials are rigid, so they do not bend. However, they are often textured for greater enjoyment and the cool feel of the material adds a whole new sensation.
For heterosexual couple play
One category of people that is often left out when thinking about double dildos are heterosexual couples, involving a man and a woman. However, double dildos can definitely be used in this case.
Unlike lesbian couples, who have a little more freedom in terms of position, if you use a double dildo for vaginal and anal use, you'll really need to think about positions.
Similar to what was discussed with women, it's best to try out these positions beforehand. Some more common and easy-to-use positions include doggy style or some variation of cowgirl. While you can use a stiffer dildo made from glass or metal, a more flexible style made from silicone is recommended as you will probably have to move it around to make both people comfortable.
Once you've figured out a few positions that might work, grab the lube and get to work. You can decide which partner will be inserted first with the dildo. However, many men go first as it can be a little more difficult to insert a dildo into the anus.
Again, as discussed before, make sure the man has had anal experience before. Otherwise, a full-sized dildo might be too much of a sensation. After the dildo is inserted into the anus, the woman can position herself to insert it into the vagina. Go slow! There are many moving parts and everyone needs to be comfortable and pain free.
Communication is very important with a double dildo. In fact, it may take a few tries before both people feel comfortable and able to experience pleasure.
Even if you've figured out how to insert both ends, the next question is about movement. It can be difficult for a man to figure out how to thrust with the back of his pelvis and can take some getting used to. He may also want the penis involved, and this is another element. Keep talking, keep experimenting, and eventually everyone will be satisfied.
Safety Precautions
Many injuries, whether physical or emotional, can be avoided through communication. First, make sure both people want to use a double dildo. Then play around to find the right positions. The first time using a double dildo probably won't be as amazing as you thought. However, with a little time and practice, it can produce the kind of sensations you've always dreamed of.
Finally, using lubricant will certainly help. Since the angle of a double dildo may not be what you're used to, your body will have to accommodate the toy. The lubricant helps both ends go in better and prevents chafing and chafing. Don't be afraid to use more lubricant during use and always check with your partner to make sure they are comfortable.
