Silicone vs glass vs steel: how to pick your first dildo
Three materials, three personalities. None of them are wrong; one of them is right for you.
Silicone: forgiving, warm, normal-feeling
If you’re unsure, start here. Body-safe, easy to clean, warms up fast. The Tantus Pop is my "first dildo" pick.
