Are naughty gifts appropriate for the holidays?

Contributor: J's Alley J's Alley
Ok, so...yes, they are appropriate, but only if you feel they are. If you don't want one, then you don't want one. J gives me toys for the holidays, but it's because he knows I want the ones he gets me.

I voted other because it totally depends on who it's for.

Personally, I think they're great ANY time of the year, but if you're not comfortable with it, just tell him!

Hello, it's the boyfriend mentioned in the introduction. Thank you all very much for your posts. This whole vote popped up when I suggested to my girlfriend that I get her a toy in addition to the usual presents and I was kinda surprised when I learned that that wasn't something she would be into, and this post was born. We really like the idea of an innocent Christmas and a naughty new year’s however.

I will give toys to two girlfriends because I know they will be appreciated. There are some other friends I shy away from giving toys as I am not sure what their toy comfort zone is. And, I will probably give a toy to my b/f but I have to figure out what?

I thnk they make awesome gifts. However if you know it may make the recipient uncomfortable, you should probably abstain. I would buy sex related gifts for most people I know, but I would warn them to open them in private as some of their families are not so understanding. Since my children are young now, I would laugh it off if I received something naughty and accidentally opened it in front of them. However I would ask the person to warn me next time so I could avoid it. I would not appreciate it if this were to happen once my children are old enough to understand what they are though.

I'm making him a whole kinky stocking since we're going to be here alone at last. Normally we spend the holidays with one of our families, but I really want to do something special with just him for once. To set the mood I'm making a cami and panties with bows on them, filling a stocking with kinky gifts for him and will make a sexy meal for him.

I wanted to get a friend of mine something fun for the holidays, but she said no since she can't return the favor.

I think it's a great personal gift to give someone. My husband and I bought each other 'early' Christmas gifts this past month and have been having a blast with them! We're also planning on getting his parents a gift card to this site to help 'spice' things up for them.

For me, it's appropriate, though I wouldn't necessarily buy my partner such things for the holidays. I'm more...romantic when it comes to the winter holidays.

Regardless, if it makes you feel uncomfortable, tell your partner that. If you have something that you enjoy already and do not want a new toy, just say that, don't be afraid. You shouldn't take OUR words for it - do what makes YOU comfortable.

depends on the person, and situation. Not everyone would be happy with such a present, caution is best.

I personally would only buy for my wife (guys just don't give that kind of stuff to "just friends"), and it would be a private gift.

I have been telling my husband I would love a sex toy for Christmas.

I agree completely that you have to know your audience, if the person doesn't want something they won't enjoy it. For us toys would be better as a private gift though, as we're both fairly young and it’s not something our parents must be putting up with at Christmas

I think it's appropriate but it depends on the setting of which you present it in front of other people or alone with that person.

I think the appropriateness depends on who is giving and who is receiving.

However in your situation why not just get the toy as a purchase of a new sex toy, and leave the Christmas giving out of it? However if it really means that much to him I'd personally suck it up and accept it - so long as it's given in the privacy of home LOL Not around the Christmas tree with friends and family looking.

I would have to agree with the aforementioned opinions that it depends on who is gifting/receiving and whether you know the receiver's preferences or not.

I plan on gifting some candles and things of that nature to some of my friends and family, since I highly doubt a vibrator would be appreciated... :|

But there are plenty of things other than sex toys on here that would make great gifts.

It all depends on the person who will receive it. But be sure to avoid a situation where they are forced to open it in front of a group who might not be so accepting of it haha

I agree with what others have said, it all depends on the situation.

I would love to get naughty gifts for Christmas, but we can't afford it. If he bought me a toy, he wouldn't be able to buy anything else and then what would we tell the family he got me? Also, we get so much free stuff on here that we are running out of room! Still, I have HUGE wish list and he has promised to pick out something special for me for Valentine's Day.

On a side note: I used some points to get my mother her first glass dildo when they went on sale here for Black Friday. I will be giving it to her for Christmas, but in private. I know most people would find this odd, but my mother and I have a great relationship and we talk about every thing. She expressed to me her concern for keeping her sex life exciting, as she is married to a much younger man. I immediately went on a rant about sex toys and the benefits for herself as well as her marriage. I couldn't believe that the woman who taught ME about sex toys in the days of "Fantasy" parties, didn't use them any more. I felt horrible. Here I am ranting about material safety and the newest innovations in sex toys to any one who will listen, and I forgot to have this convo with my own mother. THEN she tells me she has never used glass and let me tell you... I immediately had to remedy that situation! LOL

That's exciting for her! Go you for doing that for her. I'm so curious about if it will work out for her. Then again, it's glass and who doesn't love it?

It depends on the person. I can think of 1-2 friends that would appreciate a toy as a gift, the rest would be weirded out or offended. Lol. Never bought one for a partner, but that could be a lot of fun

I only buy adult toys for my closest friends and they know it's an adult toy so no surprises there. I just make sure to tell them not to open them in front of their family.

It really depends on who you are shopping for. If you know the person would appreciate it then it is a very appropriate gift.

I know I would love to get some toys for christmas.

I give my wife sex toys at every holiday. She seems to like it, and its only a little part of her gift. I try to shower her with just about whatever she wants. To me it helps make the holidays "special". Though now that I think about it, I haven't given my wife a big black dildo for black history month yet. Well its not too late I guess.

I think they're really fun gifts and best of all can usually be enjoyed by both partners.

I prefer naughty gifts to be at Valentine day, birthday (so she feels young and beauty). But in holidays other sexy items may be presented like lingeries, and sensual products.
