Dual-action vibrators are female sex toys that are designed for dual stimulation: i.e simultaneous stimulation of two erogenous zones. Dual stimulation provides more powerful orgasm and deeper gratification, so dual-action vibrators and other dual-action sex toys enjoy great popularity with sex toy users.

There are two main types of dual-action vibrators: sex toys that provide simultaneous vaginal and clitoral stimulation and vibes for simultaneous stimulation of anus and vagina. Your choice depends on your preferences: choose a vagina+anus vibe if you prefer double penetration and opt for a vagina+clitoris vibe if you want simultaneous vaginal and clitoral stimulation.

Types

Dual-action vibrators for vaginal+clitoral stimulation

Most vibes that are designed for simultaneous vaginal and clitoral stimulation are Rabbit Vibrators. These sex toys feature a vibrating and rotating shaft and "ears" for clitoral stimulation attached to the shaft.

Some Rabbit vibrators feature a hollow sphere filled with beads that tumble and spin inside the shaft as it rotates and vibrates. Rotating beads provide additional stimulation at vaginal entry.

Most Rabbit vibrators are multi-speed and multi-functional. This implies that user can choose the preferable speed of vibration as well as functions that include vibration, pulsation, escalation and others.

There are dual action vibrators that provide simultaneous clitoral and G-spot stimulation. These vibes are designed as usual Rabbit vibrators but with one difference: sex toys of this type have a curved shaft that allows to reach the G-spot easily and to concentrate vibrations on it. At the same time "ears" will tickle the clitoris providing incredible pleasure for the user.

Most Rabbit vibrators can be used anally. This implies that these sex toys can be used by men.

These sex toys are designed for double penetration. There are two types of double penetration vibrators: vibes with two shafts and vibes with bendable double-headed shafts.

Dual-action vibrators with two shafts. These sex toys have two shafts: a thicker and a thinner one. The thicker shaft is intended for vaginal stimulation while the thicker one is designed to be inserted into the anus. Most of these vibes are multi-speed and multi-functional.

Bendable dual-action vibrators. These sex toys have one bendable shaft with two ends: one for vaginal penetration and one for anus. Dual action vibrators of this type are made out of flexible materials that allow bending the sex toy in whatever way.

Materials

Dual action vibrators come in a variety of materials. In fact, these sex toys can be made of whatever material: plastic, jelly, silicone, latex, rubber and others. Each of these materials has its properties, its advantages and disadvantages. Porous materials, such as jelly and rubber are pleasant to the touch and inexpensive, however, these are quite difficult to clean and require some special measures for keeping the sex toy clean.

Non-porous materials are easy to clean and to disinfect, but these are much more expensive.

Keep in mind that oil-based lubricants can damage some materials, while water-based lubricants are compatible with any kind of sex toy.

For more information about sex toy materials see Vibrator Materials.

Use and Pleasure

Dual action vibrators can be used for both as a part of sex with a partner and for solo play. Since some dual-action vibrators can be used for anal penetration, these can be used by men as well as by women. Partners can share the vibe, however, they should keep in mind that sharing of insertable sex toys might lead to infections.

To avoid infections you can put a condom on the vibe and to change it for each use.

Dual-action vibrators, as well as any other kind of insertable sex toys require lubrication. Make sure to use the right sex lubricant that won't damage your sex toy!
