Don’t most of us have some sort of sexual fantasy? I know I have a healthy appetite for sex and fantasy. Today, we discover toys to help us fulfill our desires.
Sexual fantasies are imagined scenarios that arouse us, and almost all of us (a whopping 95%) have had one. Plus, a lucky 50% of us have one every single day!
We have them most commonly when we’re daydreaming, masturbating and when having sex. And the best bit – lots of us are fantasizing about the same or very similar things.
Most of us fantasize about things that fall into three main genres: group sex, novelty, and power/control.
Having sexy fantasies enhances our masturbation and sexual experiences and they’re a fantastic and healthy tool to rehearse, anticipate or explore future or past experiences.
Group sex
Almost every single one of us has had a fantasy about sex with more than one other person at the same time.
Most of us like to fantasize about a specific number of people, like the golden number 3. The idea of multiple people admiring, desiring and pleasuring us (or our sexual partners) all at the same time can be thrilling. While lots of people have this fantasy, it’s statistically most popular in people aged 40 and up!
Some sex toys that might feel like you’ve got some extra company in the bedroom include:
1. BASICS Mini Double Penetration Dildo
2. Lifelike Lover Classic Realistic Dildo 6 Inch
3. Lovehoney Super Soft Silicone Galaxy Butt Plug
4. Lovehoney Ignite 20 Function Vibrating Prostate Massager
5. Fifty Shades of Grey Vibrating Nipple Clamps
Something new
Novelty, or trying something new, is the next big genre of fantasy. This one is mainly all about the anticipation, excitement and nervousness of trying something for the first time.
The ‘I’ve never done this before’ feeling – it’s exhilarating. Some things that fall into this category are fantasizing about having sex in a new place (like publicly) or trying out sex toys. Popular fantasized public sex places are: in a park, on a plane, in a car, in a public toilet and at work. Obviously, the “I’ve never done this before” feeling is subject to each person and each couple, but here are some things to try if you haven’t already:
6. Lovehoney Oh! Satin Blindfold
7. We-Vibe Moxie Remote and App Control Wearable Clitoral Panty Vibrator
8. Lovehoney Position Master Mega Bondage Kit (8 Piece)
9. Lovehoney Oh! Feather Tickler
Power and control
The third common genre of fantasy is power and control. One route into this kind of fantasy is through BDSM. Lots of us have at some point fantasized about bondage (being restrained or restraining another), discipline (giving or taking orders) or inflicting/receiving pain (popular fantasies are through biting and spanking).
Some toys that can accessorize any BDSM play are:
10. Bondage Boutique Black Bound to Please Under Mattress Restraint
11. Lovehoney Satin and Leather Spanking Paddle
12. Fifty Shades of Grey Sweet Sting Riding Crop
13. Bondage Boutique Tease Me Silly Wartenberg Pinwheel
Erotic fantasies are normal, healthy and helpful. They can increase our interest arousal, sexual satisfaction and sexual functioning.
Remember, having fantasies doesn’t necessarily mean that you want to enact your fantasy. There might be multiple things out in the real-life sex world that logistically prevent it from ever happening. But, the amazing thing about fantasy is that you’re in full control of the scenario as it plays out in your head.
This is also why many people choose not to play out their fantasy, as it remains ‘perfect’ and in their control while
