just for aesthetics?

Contributor: MamaDivine MamaDivine
Im a person that HAS to have a toy that has multiple uses. (I hate glass, thats why Im selling my two and the pouch) even though, they are really pretty! The one that I have is all clear glass, with swirls that go up around the shaft and inside those swirls is a very pretty blue. Its cute, but its not ideal for me. And at $65 that I spent for it, it simply was one of those "stupid purchases" that i know not to make again. Tried it once and realized I made an oopsie LOL. Now, some of the toys that are super cute looking but are contoured to be a good massager, Ill buy those. They are cute, and I can use them for massages or sexual stimulation Im all about the value hehe

Form and function, please. I've been tempted to buy solely for looks, but I can't justify it. I don't need sex toys for decorations, but if they're pretty it does arouse me. So, I do my best to have both in a toy.

form and function I agree seems to be the common response

Most of the stuff I find is really pretty, BUT the only reason I'm looking is because of the function. It wouldn't matter if it was ugly as long as it did it's job.... I feel like buffalo bob, "IT puts the lotion on IT'S skin!" ha ha

Toy beauty isn't important to me because the only ones to see them is of course myself and my beautiful husband. He is handsome enough that I don't really care what toys look like.

I try to buy for function but I take the aesthetics into account.

I go for both but sometimes the ugliest toys are the greatest ones. Hitatchi magic wand comes to mind, that thing is big, clunky, and ugly but oh my...

Icicles #24. It's so pretty, but I hardly ever use it. I just have other glass toys that work better for me.

I have only bought toys that I thought looked beautiful and were functional.

If it doesn't look pleasing, my wife won't even go near it!

If you've never used glass before, it might really ... more
If I had an expendable income I'd totally purchase the tentacles.

Otherwise, I find that most of the toys I want are very aesthetically pleasing to me.

I'm more likely to buy a toy if it's pretty, but I don't buy it solely because it's pretty. It still has to be functional

I have the original Hello Kitty vibrator and have thought about getting the Bondage Duckie vibrator just to sit on my shelf.

I but more for use than looks.

I have a bunch of glass pieces that I bought just because they are pretty.... BUT I ended up liking most all of them for play too!

Most of the time I go for function, but there are some toys that make it tempting just to get (even if I might not use them). Like the Wonderland toys... not sure I'd use them much but they'd be cool to have.

The saying from the architecture world, "form follows function" is true.

Since when? That rule has numerous counterexamples.

We buy mostly for function, but I try and get things that look great, my wife just loves ones that work well and looks good. (But then again, who doesn't?)

I really care a lot more about the function than the design for myself

Great designs and beautiful glass are something I love so long as it also is functional for me.

I'm attracted to looks first, but then I read reviews to see if it would be useful to me.
