My wife and I have a few toys, vibrators and dildos, but haven't yet bought a glass dildo that seem to be so popular. Are they worth all of the hype? I would think if a toy is made for insertion that a dildo would be better because it is softer and if you want something hard that the vibrators would work for that.
So please, are they worth it and if so why? what makes them so great?
 
I don't have a glass dildo, either, though I've considered getting one. I like that they can be made warmer or cooler, depending on what one's in the mood for.

The biggest drawback for me is the price, but then I tend to be a cheapskate. :)

Some that I've seen in online catalogs are beautiful enough that they could be put out on display as art. And that makes me think that such a gift might be appropriate for an anniversary, birthday, or simply to celebrate that this week included a Friday. :D

Ooh, I have an anniversary coming up next week.
 
Okay this isn't going how I had anticipated. I am not looking for piece of art and no matter how great a piece phalic glass looks I would never display it in our home because we don't live in a trailer or a brothel.
I wanted to know the advantages and disadvantages what does a woman like about them, are they that great?
 
Ok. I'll knock off the funnin'. :(

My wife loves hers because of the rigidity, the ability to warm it, cool it, sterilize it and best of all, fuck herself with it or have me fuck her with it. We've even used it for a double penetration minus there being another asshole in the bed.

She's had several dildos over the years, can't imagine why they keep wearing out, but this one has been her favorite. Oh, yea! It doesn't wear out.

Because these things come in a huge spectrum of shapes, sizes and types, you'll have a very difficult time not getting off with one of these. We've even been considering getting a couple more for further explorations of their potential. :nana:

The only draw back seemed to be back when I first got it for her. She had to get use to how hard it is. That didn't take long, though. :D
 
Are they actually made out of glass or is it some other material and they just call it glass?

They're made from Pyrex (spl?) glass. Its the same stuff that glass cookwear is made from. For cleaning purposes, that's a nice bonus.

:cool:
 
I have 2 of them and I prefer them over my other 'soft' dildoes.

My newest one is curved and rubs me in just the right place. :D
 
I think the glass ones are very beautiful, but I bought an acrylic one instead because I was concerned about the possibility of dangerous cracks appearing in a glass one.

Unless you're using one to bang a cunt of steel, this isn't something to worry about.

:cool:
 
My husband bought me three for Christmas and I really like them. One has some bumps, one is angled, they're good for different things. The ability to warm or cool them is nice, they're both very hard and very slick, which I like, and the ability to just take them in the shower in the morning to clean 'em up is handy, too.
 
I have a very simple glass dildo and I love it - it provides a very nice firm bumping sensation just where I like it, it's beautiful to look at, is versatile - slim enough to be used as second cock in double penetration play with my sweetie and good for use on him too. They maybe expensive but I think a good quality, beautiful sex toy is worth the expense.

I also like the look of the new stainless steel toys from njoy - can't wait to get my hands on some of these. http://njoy.whitewhale.net/

Geez. It was just an observation. :rolleyes:

And way to generalize with the trailer comment.

It's the generalization that makes it funny. But really, who would display a glass dildo in their home?

Well obviously you have no appreciation of haute art. ;)

The women of ancient Rome use to have to endure very long periods of time without the men of the houses being around. Usually because someone was looking to expand the empire and men were needed to fight and stay away for extended amounts of time.

The women often had phallii of sorts custom made by local woodsmiths or stonesmiths. They were ornate, painted, often made to resemble something other than what they were made for except in shape, and were commonly used for decoration around the homes.

Basically they were hidden in plain sight so as not to incure the jealousy and wrath of the man of the home were he to know their actual purpose.

:cool:

Okay then I stand corrected, it's not just people who live in trailers that would display their dildos apparently Romans will also, well I guess they don't but they did about 2000 years ago.
Thank you for the clarification I should have expanded my generalization to include dead people from 100 BC. ;)

Actually, I have seen some that I would comfortably display in my office along with other small objets d'art. All I need is the right person with whom to enjoy one. Hell, maybe I ought to get one anyway - you never know what's going to happen tomorrow, right?

Besides, it wouldn't be too much of a distraction as long as it's out of my sight when I need to focus at the computer. I find that I can ignore almost all sources of distraction, so having a beautiful glass dildo a few feet away wouldn't faze me a bit.

I have to agree. The glass dildos are awesome in double penetration play. But I want to add something here...be sure you look at them carefully and especially handle them. There are glass dildos that look great but they are hollow..they have no weight to them. The solid glass dildos is what you want to use. It feels better inside, trust me I know this. Plus the hollow ones scare me as to breakage...the solid ones...I really can't see that happening. Expensive? Yes. But worth it...go solid.
 
Glass dildoes also have a certain weight or heftiness to them that can be very handy for some bdsm play. I like to insert (anywhere works, and use lube) and then punish when my partner is no longer able to hold it inside! Works best in a standing position, while you are concentrating on other tasty bits.

That's pretty creative ... kind of inspiring for a few games i might like to try out. :devil:

A Pyrex dildo can be heated in the microwave to a comfortable temperature. I think that is the major advantage.
They're also great for stirring the noodles when the long spoons are all dirty ... :D
