Dildos: myths
People who use dildos are inadequate
Probably, the most common believe about dildos and actually all sex toys is that people, who use them fall in the category of everything but normal behavior. In public they say, that only weirdoes, and other freaks use dildos, but what they really think of it... It's enough to make a small cyber investigation to find out that dildos are not used by a "few" number of perverts. It's simply about experiencing new sexual sensations, rather than "abnormality".
Dildo is used in solo sex
All kinds of dildos serve as pleasure, no matter if they are not used only for single persons of any gender. The idea of taking advantage of a dildo in the eyes of somebody else may scare you from these enjoyable manipulations. Nevertheless a great number of couples find this idea not merely good, but fantastic.
All dildos are the same
The image that all dildos are designed in phallus shape does have a true base. But you will never find so many types, styles, shapes, colors etc in real men. Today sex toys industry went far off, and you may simply get puzzled about dildo type, which will suit you the best, without preview.
Dildo will replace the penis
Yes, dildo is great, colorful, fancy and so on. With a proper cleaning, dildo won't be an STD's transmitter, as well as it does not hug you on those cold nights and say how much it cares for you.
Strap-on dildos are used by lesbians only
Strap-on dildos are certainly a very convenient way for penetration, and that's why lesbian do take an advantage of it. But as well as lesbians, "straight", bisexual, gay and others have strap-ons preference , which is rather a matter of taste. The use of any kind of dildos depends on ones own limits or freedom of desires and sexual fantasies. You may never find whether you like it or not if you don't try.
If a man uses dildo he is gay
Most men are afraid to use dildo merely out of fear to be "accused" of being gay. That is as much untrue as all gays like particular kind of sex, e.g. anal sex. Sexual preferences are so varied and individual, that can only be limited by one's abilities. Not all gays like penetrating sex, as well as many heterosexual do.
If I suggest my partner to use dildo, he will think there's something wrong with him
If you decided to vary your relationship and add dildo to your sex experiments store, you may doubt your partner's reaction. In this case you may exchange your opinions, fears and expectations beforehand. You shouldn't start it unconditionally. Leave some space to experiment with it, stroking dildo through his or her body and trying it little by little. Using dildo doesn't mean he or she is unsatisfied with you, it's just means he likes to experiment and introduce something new. In the end you want to share these intimate moments with your partner, not somebody else.
