Over the past decade, the use of adult toys has become increasingly popular and according to research, the stigmas surrounding the use of vibrators and other sexual devices intended to increase individual or mutual pleasure are reducing—as more individualsand couples are opening up to a far more adventurous and intimate type of technology.

Heterosexual men are also finally embracing the use of sex toys to enhance physical pleasure which undoubtedly enhances sexual experience. According to a survey of Google shopping searches by Bespoke Surgical, a healthcare center for men, sex toys such as cock rings, strap-ons, or butt plugs are the most popular toys in sixteen states in the U.S.

This goes to show that a lot more people are broadening their horizons on who gets to experience the pleasure from using an ‘inanimate object’— especially with places like MensToysHub — Male Sex Tech Review Website gaining online popularity.

“I think the cultural norm has shifted and people are willing to explore more,” said Dr. Evan Goldstein, founder and CEO of Bespoke Surgical.

“The belief that using a sex toy means your partner isn’t a good enough lover is one of the most common misconceptions people have about sex toys,” said certified sex therapist, licensed marriage and family therapist, and resident relationship and sex expert at AdamandEve.com, Dr. Kat Van Kirk, Ph.D.

“One partner may also fear that another partner’s use of a sex toy will replace them or that they'll become overly reliant on them for arousal and/or orgasm.”

However, in a 2016 study conducted by Chapman University’s David Frederick, Ph.D., it was discovered that men and women who reported feeling satisfied by their relationship and their sex life with their partners were more likely to report having used sex toys together — in addition to other steamy activities, such as showering together, trying new sex positions in bed, and scheduling a ‘sex date night.’
