Effortless Orgasms?

Contributor: Adriana Ravenlust Adriana Ravenlust
I have known for a while that my masturbation style is.. unique. I know that the way I approach toys is different as well and I usually have to take this into consideration when writing reviews. I tend to love vibrators because they have more unique shapes than dildos but no matter how high the vibrations a toy has, I never get off on vibrations alone. I need the pressure and, as such, even those super strong vibrators take their toll on me. I always have to do a lot of work on my own. But when I read some experiences it seems like some people basically place a toy where they want, let it run its course and get off without much effort from themselves.

So, actually, this is just me being curious. Do you get off effortlessly (or close to it)? Does a toy get high marks in your book if you don't have to work at an orgasm? If you had to work for an orgasm does that lower how you rate a toy?

I don't get off effortlessly on my own. Not even close.

Vibrations get me there, but only when paired with pressure and positioning. I don't lower a toy's rating based on how much work I had to do, unless I had to do ALL of the work and it didn't bring anything to the table (or to the orgasm!).

When I'm masturbating, I like it to be effortless. Usually, I'm working hard all day, whether I'm at school or work. So when I'm all curled up in bed with my vibrator, that's my time to pamper myself, not work some more. I had a hard time deciding whether to buy my first dildo. I kept thinking "Wait, I'm gonna have to actually MOVE it. I won't be able to just lay there."

To answer your other two questions, ehhh...yes and yes. I kinda spoil myself.

On my own is more work than with someone, usually. (Making an exception for inept lovers.) What's interesting is (I realize now that you mention it) I was able to orgasm faster by myself before I started using toys. Now if I'm alone I actually like to take my time. But no - I can't just stick a toy somewhere and let it do it's thing.

As far as reviews, I write about how well it works for me the way I use it. If I get frustrated using it I'm not likely to give it good marks. I get frustrated when I'm using something and it just isn't doing anything - much less getting me there. For me it's more about the overall experience with the toy - not just the orgasms.

No. I have to work at it too. It is so much easier with a person than with a toy.

Wow, I feel like a bit of an odd-ball now lol. I almost always orgasm with my boyfriend, but I find it much easier with a toy. I can but the vibrations at the right speed and in the exact place I want to come easily.

Better you than me. I kid, of course.


Actually, the way I masturbate with a clit type toy and with my hands is much the same. I just use the toy to rub/press and it does take the stress of my fingers.

And although I was talking mostly about masturbation, when I get off during sex it's usually because I'm doing the same damned thing I do during masturbation. Haha.

We're all a little odd-ball.... especially around here.

Although I think there's a good argument to be made that we are the NORMAL people.

I need to make an exception to what I said above: The Xtreme g-spot bullet on my clit gets me off really fast. Too fast sometimes.

ICK. I'm way out of it here. I really like dildo's and glass far more than vibration. Most of the pleasure in sex when I'm alone is the joy and pleasure of imagination, taking it slow, the build up, tension, backing away and starting over. Vibration just doesn't work as well for that. It's too fast most of the time. The orgasm isn't as pleasant or as strong! I only have one toy that vibrates that I really love.

@Adriana- I tend to do the same, though it's usually the vibrations that ultimately get me off.

@Happy Lady- I can definitely relate with the Xtreme g-bullet. Sometimes I enjoy a little quickie with myself though.

Although I have a glass dildo which is really nice that's all it is - nice. But practice makes perfect, right?

I love my high-powered egg vibe (can't go wrong with 6AAs, right?) The vibrations alone right on my clit can set me off with no problem. But, without the stimulation there, it takes me forever.

Yes! Sometimes the Xtreme G-Spot is TOO damned fast for me. If I'm tired it's the first thing I turn to though.

This thread has got me thinking, I masturbate both with toys and vibes...they work much better for me then just my fingers. Actually being in the mood (feeling horny) with a sense of anticipation is big for me.
I use a vibe followed by a dil and then back to the vibe. Some toys just deliver more then others. The toys I really enjoy, I continually go back to for subsequent sessions and have them ready for my solo play. Last night I used one vibe, two dils, and a butt plug; I was not disappointed!

Adriana, Is your glass dildo a g-spot dildo? I'm thinking that if it were your opinion of glass dildos would be different. My glass g-spot wand is my current favorite toy, surpassing even the magic wand.

It is curved. For me, G-spot stimulation is usually painful and uncomfortable so "nice" is as good as it's ever felt for me.

It's the 10x Egg Vibe from TopCo. I discovered this one a few years ago and it is awesome . I have one I use, and one in the box in case it ever goes out. Not sure how to post a picture of it here, but it's got an LED display, on/off button, and two arrow buttons to cycle through the 10 levels. My BFF

You can set up a flicker account or if you don't want to bother with that, email me, and I'll post it under my DBD flicker, and link it for you.

Well, it really depends on my mood. Some days for no known reason it's just harder. Some days, especially before my cycle and during the first few days, it takes almost no effort! Lol. Sometimes it happens in only minutes and sometimes hours! When we are using a toy around my super horny time I'll be very into it and my partner says "So is this one gonna get a good review?" Lol. Everytime he says that. & I have to explain that I will have to use the toy a number of times throughout the month to be sure. If I'm really excited enough even a crappy toy could do it for me. So I always use it during the days that I'm so far from horny that I could scream! Lol. I have to make sure I am being accurate in the review. I'll test it at different moods to be sure. If it gets me excited even on a time where I'm stressed and it would normally take a good 45 minutes, the toy does well, it's usually a keeper in my book. I just have to test drive a lot before making a decision. I won't ever make a decision based on one or even 4 uses.

It's never about the mechanics and always about the mindset for me. I can sit there with a vibrator in my panties and if I'm not mentally aroused, all it does is buzz oddly against my crotch. Same goes for penetration and pretty much any other standard sexual act if I'm not mentally stimulated before/during.

I don't need toys to get off and very often during thick fantasies the simplest shift of my thighs is enough to get me close.
