I've done it for my boyfriend when he goes away and he really enjoys it. It's more personal than if he bought it himself.

I think it is a great idea. I would love to have my wife buy me something for while I am gone.

I have done it. Since I bought it for him, he thinks of me while using it, right!

It depends on how open he is to talking about sex in general, as well as trying new stuff. Some people would be offended, some would have no problem at all. You know your boyfriend best.

No way! My boyfriend and I are currently apart for the school year, and I'm saving up to get him a Flip Hole or a Cobra Libre. He's used an egg before, but they don't last more than a couple uses.

I really wanted to buy one for my partner, but he says he doesn't need them, because he rarely masturbates.
However, as you are going to be apart, it would be a nice and caring gift.

I've done this for my boyfriend before and he's always been very appreciative and he gets as excited about new toys as I do. I think it's a great gift.

It would only be awkward if your guy had explicitly expressed disinterest or dislike of the idea of them.

I don't think it's weird but you might ask him if he wants to help pick one out. Just my 2 cents since I am picky about my toys.

I bought the Fleshlight Lady Original for Arch because Sigel absolutely loved his and thought it mimics actual sex fairly well. Arch wholeheartedly agrees and actually lets me watch him and his new girlfriend getting it on! SO HAWT!

I'm currently in a long-distance relationship, but I'd buy him masturbators regardless. Lord knows I won't be parting with my toys, so he should have some, too.

Getting him one is a great idea. I would just stay away from the Tenga Egg, as they only last a couple times if you are lucky.

I totally want to get a Fleshlight for my guy, but he thinks it would be too embarrassing to clean, especially since he is in college and shares a bathroom. That's the only reason I'm not getting one! I think it's a fantastic idea

Okay...our answer is with us BOTH sitting here...hubby and wife. Fact is, we think he would LOVE you for it. Sweet and uninhibited gift. HOWEVER, we both find that "man eater" to be a scary looking thing, and while the TANGA's have good reviews, aren't those both "single use" items? If WE were thinking of such a gift, we would get something like a FLESHLIGHT, or one of the more realistic looking REUSABLE masterbators....OR if you are on a more limited budget, get one of those "tube type" masterbators and a nice bottle of lube, together...in a "I'll miss you, please think of me when using this...since I will be thinking about YOU" gift pack.
Hubbys opinion also...the Tenga's are "complex" feeling but "cold" and not very realistic at all. Kind of like having sex with a "robotic jello mold". We KNOW some guys love them...but he will take a Fleshlight any day, over these.

I would buy one for my husband if he had business trips or something, but since he doesn't, and our sex life is so active, he really doesn't have a need for one.

You have to keep in mind, though, not everyone would be comfortable giving their partner a toy that looks like someone else's genitals. Given that discreet masturbators are in the list, I'd probably suggest something from Tenga. They don't have to be single use items. The user can wear a condom to extend the life of them. And yeah, the Man Eater thing is kind of scary... I'd save that more as a gag than a "think of me" gift.

My wife has bought toys for me as gifts and I have bought some for her. If you are going to be apart I don't see how caring about his needs and helping him to satisfy them is a bad thing in this case.

If you decide to separate, it doesn't matter if it's even temporary, then it's better not to make such a gift, for me it will look too self-confident on your part.
But if you have to leave, well, say for work in another city for a while, then I think the guy will understand you.

Hmm, I doubt that people who decided to break up would consider gifting each other sex toys. At least it sounds a little odd to me.

However, if talking about a short-time separation, I'd consider it a gesture of care.
