We all know about regular dildos. They are great! But what about a double sided dildo? Often they get thought of as gag gifts or a joke. Well, we are here to tell you that they are actually a fairly useful sex toy. Not only are they useful, but they can be a lot of fun!

However, as this is not your typical sex toy, there are a variety of tips and tricks to make sure you get the best out of your double sided dildo, like size and style are important, it's not good for standing sex, and it uses up a lot more energy - just to name a few to start!

Now before we dive right in, let's start with the basics. What exactly is a double sided dildo? It's okay if you don't know! But we will give you a hint: the name is fairly self explanatory.

A regular dildo could also be called a one sided dildo, as only one side is meant to penetrate and the other side is meant to be held or attached in some sort of harness. A double-sided dildo is meant to be penetrated on both sides. In order to accomplish this, they have to be way longer than a regular dildo. They are also often way more flexible to account for different positions and moving bodies.

Another term for a double sided dildo is a double penetration dildo. Because of the length of them, they are often seen as comical or maybe even joke toys.

So now you know what a double sided dildo is. Great! But what is it used for? Well, a double sided dildo is most often used by two women so that they can both achieve penetration at the same time during sex. Often when two women are having sex, they will either use their fingers or tongues for penetration or one might use a strap on to mimic a penis and penetrate the other. A double-sided dildo is extra exciting because it means that both women can feel a deep, hard penetration at the same time. But the fun isn't just for women only! Double sided dildos can also be used for anal penetration. However, this takes a bit of practice and manoeuvring and we wouldn't recommend it for beginners. For the purposes of this article, we will focus on women using and enjoying double sided dildos.

As we mentioned before, because of the look of them, a double sided dildo can often be seen as a joke toy. They can often be given as gag gifts because they look funny. After all, a double ended penis does look a bit silly! However we want to change the perception of double-sided dildos right here and right now. They are not only a legitimate sex toy but a super fun one at that. Yes, they take some practice to get the feel and motions right but once you master a double sided dildo, you'll never be the same again! And we mean that in the best way possible!

Because a double sided dildo isn't your typical sex toy, it is quite possible that your partner may have never come across one before. This isn't the sort of sex toy that you spring out as a surprise. It definitely has the potential to shock, especially if it is a newer relationship. This is the sort of sex toy that requires a bit of discussion beforehand. We don't want to make it sound all serious because, after all, sex toys are meant to be fun! However, communicating with your partner about a double sided dildo will only make it more fun - trust us!

Now that you know what a double sided dildo is and we've spent some time hyping them up, it's time to learn some basic tips and tricks!

This is to satisfy all the many sexual preferences and positions! The tips below can be applied to any sort of double sided dildo.

In order to make the most of a double sided dildo, you want to make sure the walls of your vagina are strong. This isn't like having sex with a real penis; a double sided dildo will be more easily pulled from both ends so you want to make sure that your vagina can get a good grip on it. Kegels are always recommend to general vaginal wall health and strength but we recommend them even more if you are considering adding a double sided dildo to your sexual routine. The best thing about kegels is that you can do them anywhere! Why not start practicing now while reading the rest of this article.

Like all dildos, double sided dildos come in a wide array or sizes and styles. Picking out the perfect dildo is like picking out the perfect car: you need to make sure that every aspect of it is perfect for you. You also need to make sure it's the right fit for your body and vagina. And with a double sided dildo, you have another person and body to consider. If you have a long term partner, you will likely want to purchase your double sided dildo together, so you both can have input on the style and size. Depending on how experienced you are will also dictate what style of double sided dildo you invest in.

We highly recommend only using double sided dildos with women you have an established relationship with. This is because they take a bit of practice to get used to and are not really the sort of sex toy two new people can just all into using properly. Also, as with any sex toy, you want to limit the number of strange people who use it. Yes, it is tempting to want to try out during a one night stand but trust us: you have a bigger chance of turning your hookup off than on if you surprise them with a double sided dildo.

You are probably aware of harnesses for one sided or regular dildos. Did you know there are also harnesses for double sided dildos? They allow the person wearing the harness to also receive penetration and stimulation. You definitely to not NEED a harness in order to make a double sided dildo work. In fact, most people prefer to go without, as it gives them more movement and control with the dildo. And yes, it definitely is possible for both people to thrust and find a good rhythm at the same time. One person will naturally end up dominating a bit over the other. Sort of like how a couples dance always has an natural leader!

This may seem really obvious but make sure to always lube both ends of a double sided dildo. Even if you are going to be more stationary and your partner is doing more of the thrusting, you want to make sure that both sides are slick and ready to be inserted into your vaginas. Lube will also make it way easier to find a quick and easy rhythm with using the double sided dildo. Even if you aren't a big fan of lube, we think it is essential to successfully using a double sided dildo!

This may be less obvious but it is just as important: double sided dildos aren't the best for standing up sex. As neither end is permanently attached to someone, if both of you pull out it can fall to the floor. It is better to use a double sided dildo with at least one person lying or sitting. You can hit way better angles that way too! However, if you are using a harness then there is the possibility to engage with standing up sex. Regardless of a harness or not, you may find that you have more strength for thrusting if you are both lying or sitting. But be sure to test out different positions to see what works best for you!

Since both people are going to be actively thrusting and reacting to the double sided dildo inside of them, a lot more energy is going to be spent up. What we mean by this is that it is hard for one person to be a passive participant when a double sided dildo is in play. You are guaranteed to be super hot and sweaty after finishing up with a double sided dildo. That is one of the reasons why we love this sex toy so much, though! There's nothing like working up a good sweat and getting off at the same time, if you ask us!

It can be tempting to find one safe position and stick with it when it comes to using a double sided dildo. However, we encourage you to branch out and try as many positions as possible. There are a lot of possibilities with a double sided dildo, as long as both partners are interested in exploring and experimenting and potentially stepping outside of their comfort zones! Be sure to communicate and be attentive throughout so you can be sure that both of you are enjoying yourselves.

In talking about changing up positions, it is important to mention cleanliness. Our vaginal areas are very delicate and can become irritated or infected quite easily. When you are using a double sided dildo, be sure to keep the sides consistent. What we mean by that is try to avoid switching what side you and your partner are using. Also try to limit how often it is out in between moving positions. If you want to be extra careful, give it a quick wipe if you decided to move positions or try something new. And of course, as with all dildos, they must be cleaned after each and every use!

A double sided dildo was made to be used by two people but did you know it's great for masturbating too? Women love using it for masturbating because it is so extra long. That means that they don't have to reach their hands so far down in order to get a good angle for penetration and depth. We love sex toys that have multiple purposes! Of course, the very best use of a double sided dildo is with two people but we're fans of this use for it as well!

We hope that you now see what an excellent sex toy a double sided dildo can be. It can bring a great bit of excitement and exhilaration to a relationship. Yes, it does take a bit of extra work but extra work often means an extra great pay off! Most importantly, we love how using a double sided dildo means that both women can be penetrated at the same time. That is super sexy if you as us!
