Frequently Asked Questions
How should I use a tongue vibrator?
Although all vibrators share a common goal of making you climax, different kinds of toys call for various uses. Taylor Nolan, Ph.D., plusOne Sexology Expert, tells Allure, “A tongue/oral vibrator is typically used externally on the clitoris; not all are meant for insertion.” She adds. “As with most toys, you’re going to want some lube handy. Use lube around the mouth of the toy to ensure a smooth sensation along the vulva as you play.” Nolan also suggests pairing clitoral stimulation with thrusting motions for peak enjoyment. “Instead of lying or sitting there and having the device stimulate you, engage your body with the vibrator. Often, this leads to a deepened experience of pleasure as you are activating the pelvic floor and your internal clitoris.”
Lexington, Kentucky-based marriage and family therapist Juliana Hauser, PhD. previously told Allure that where you place your vibrator is critical. “Some clitorises like to have the vibrator directly on the glans (pull back your hood for direct contact), others like the hood to provide a barrier and prefer the vibrator to be over the top of the hood and closer to the clitoral shaft,” she says.
How should I choose a tongue vibrator?
Your choice of a tongue vibrator should be informed by research ensuring its safety and quality and the specifications you think would best suit your desires, like intensity range, aesthetic, and versatility. “With any device, make sure the materials used are body-safe,” says Nolan. “Consider how you might want to use the device — in the shower, in bed, or on your couch,” Hauser suggests looking for external and internally stimulating toys if you’re looking to achieve blended orgasms.
How are tongue vibrators different from other vibrators?
“Tongue vibrators are unique in that they mimic the sensation of oral sex,” says Nolan. “So, they are not your typical vibrator. Instead of air-pulsing waves or straight-up vibrations, they have a tongue-like feature that will flutter back and forth and stimulate the clitoris.”
