The best sex toys for men have come a long way in the last decade or so. Gone are the days when the only toys for guys were cheap, low-quality “pocket pussies” and standard butt plugs—now the market overflows with sexy gadgets and gizmos aplenty for all genders and anatomies.
You might be wondering: Why try sex toys, if your hand already does the job just fine? But that’s sort of like asking why you should bother going to a restaurant when you can cook yourself a meal at home—variety is the spice of life, and sex toys can get pretty spicy.

Using a sex toy is “an opportunity to experience new pleasures beyond your own hands,” says Destin Gerek, a sexologist and host of the Evolved Masculine podcast. “[Toys] allow you to enjoy those sensations even when your partner is not available or simply not in the mood.”
And when they are, toys can ramp up partnered sex with new sensations and even help you go a little longer. “They can be used as a stamina training device to help men become more acclimated to the pleasurable sensations of sex, so that [their] nervous system isn’t as overloaded as it would be when having sex with a real partner,” Gerek explains.
The Best Strokers
Fleshlight
Flight Pilot
- Highly stimulating internal texture is pleasurable and can help with sexual performance
- Soft and squishy enough to accommodate a variety of penis sizes
- Can be dissembled and turned inside out for easier cleaning
- Can be mounted to a surface for hands-free thrusting
- Porous material means it will need to be replaced sooner than a silicone toy
How to Use: Lubricate the inside and entrance of the stroker with a water-based lube, slip it onto your penis, and stroke.
Sexologist and sex coach Cam Fraser says, "There is one toy that I most often recommend to [clients]: a stroker or masturbation sleeve, such as the Fleshlight Flight Pilot male masturbator." Not only is this toy pleasurable, due to its bumpy internal texture and squishy SuperSkin material, but it may even improve your sexual performance: "Using a toy like this can help you re-condition yourself to experience pleasurable sensations from stimulation that is closer to that of sex with a partner, thus helping you have more reliable erections and even ejaculations when you're with them," Fraser explains. He also likes that the hard case of this stroker makes it easier to mount it to a surface, by using a mount or (for instance) wedging it between your mattress and boxspring so you can thrust into it hands-free.
THRUST
Pro Ultra Abbie Realistic Vagina Super Tight Cup
- Realistic design
- Fun for partner play
- Includes a discreet storage case
- Tighter stroking chamber for increased pleasure
- Designed for the optional addition of a bullet vibrator at its base
- Affordable
- Not very discreet outside of its case
How to Use: Lubricate the inside and entrance of the stroker with a water-based lube, slide in your penis, adjust the suction to your desired level of intensity, and stroke.
Ah, the classic anatomical stroker. This genre of sex toy will always be GOATed to me, because the realistic design elements make them feel extra kinky and fun, especially if you’re bringing them into partner play (talk about a soft-launch threesome). The 6-inch-long, textured internal chamber of this model is meant to recreate the feeling of realistic vaginal penetration—thus, the name and description—with a tighter chamber than your average stroker at .25 inches in width (most strokers run around .5 inches). Apply ample lube, start off stroking slowly, and enjoy.
How to Use: Lubricate the inside and entrance of the stroker with a water-based lube, slip it onto your penis, and stroke.
Brad Garrison, a registered psychotherapist and relationship issues specialist, recommends this for guys who want a toy that's straightforward and easy to use. "It’s simple but effective, washable, and inexpensive... A nice starting point for most guys," he says. Like the Tenga Egg (more on that below), this toy is designed to be disposable, but can be used up to a few times if you wash and dry it properly between uses. This particular one has a multi-chambered texture on the inside that's meant to mimic the sensations of a deep-throat blowjob. For an even more realistic oral-esque sensation, you can cover up the air hole on one end using your finger, to introduce some suction into each stroke.
How to Use: Apply water-based lubricant to the inside and rim of the toy before sliding it onto the clitoris. Stroke up and down as desired.
Garrison often recommends this toy to his transmasculine clients. It's a stroker that'll work for many trans guys' anatomy. He loves that it's relatively affordable, but notes that it's likely to work best for larger clits, especially those that have experienced growth from being on masculinizing hormones. “Additionally, it is fully reversible—one side is smooth and the other is more textured,” Garrison says, “which allows users to chose the level of stimulation that feels good for them.”
How to Use: Apply a water-based lubricant (optionally), place toy against the underside of your penis so it wraps around the shaft and presses against the frenulum, and turn it on. You can hold it in place or stroke it up and down.
This vibrator comes highly recommended by Garrison, who says “The Pulse is designed to be slipped over the glans, or end of the penis, and—once things are in place and turned on—is essentially hands-free.” The toy wraps around your shaft, and you can position it so that the vibrations stimulate your sensitive frenulum directly, leaving your hands available for other activities. (Nipple play? Prostate massage? Touching your partner?) Oh, and one other nifty thing about this toy: “It does not require an erection for use,” Garrison says, “making it a great pleasure option for guys who may have difficulty getting or maintaining an erection.”
How to Use: Remove stroker from the plastic case it comes in. Apply the included lubricant to the inside and entrance of the stroker. Slip the toy onto your penis and stroke as desired.
A disposable stroker like this one is a great first foray into the world of sex toys for newbies. I've bought Tenga Eggs for many past partners and they've always been a hit. Made of soft, squishy elastomer, these toys have various different textures on the inside that range from gentle to intense; variety packs are available if you want to try some different options. Their cute egg-shaped packaging makes them travel-friendly, and each one conveniently comes with its own packet of lube tucked inside. Using one of these is a super fun (and cheap!) way to mix up your masturbation technique—or your handjob technique, if (like me) you enjoy using strokers on partners—and, with careful cleaning after each session, you can usually get three to five uses out of each Egg.
The Best Cock Rings
How to Use: Press the main button on the toy to turn it on, and repeat to cycle through the toy’s vibration modes. You can also control it by pairing it with the We-Vibe app. Apply some water-based lube to the inside of the ring before sliding it down to the base of your penis. Position the vibrating part either facing up or facing down so it’ll stimulate your partner’s clitoris or perineum (depending on their anatomy and preferences) during sex.
Vibrating cock rings are impressive multitaskers: They beef up your boner by restricting blood flow out of your penis, while the vibration provides pleasure for both you and your partner. I love this one, by We-Vibe, because of how deep and strong the vibrations are; it's fantastic for hands-free clit stimulation during sex. It's also pretty quiet, which allows me to almost forget it's even there and just enjoy the pleasure. One word of warning, though: This cock ring has some stretch to it, but it may feel too snug around large dicks; it's better suited for those in an average size range.
How to Use: You won’t need as much lube as you might with a thicker cock ring, but apply a dollop of water-based lube on your flaccid penis, push down on the toggle, and tighten the ring to your liking. Press the toggle once more to loosen.
Cock rings can feel intimidating for the uninitiated, and a seamless silicone C-ring—no matter how stretchy—can still feel a bit claustrophobic around a beginner’s penis. Time and time again, I will toss a breezy, adjustable C-ring like this into my bag or back pocket. It’s discreet, and works for pretty much all penis sizes (the max adjustment level is 8.5 inches), and when you’re done using it, the release toggle is just a push away.
How to Use: With a healthy amount of lube, slip onto the base of a flaccid or semi-flaccid penis to help maintain an erection.
Our pick for the best basic cock ring is the Performance Pro Silicone Cock Ring: We like this one because it's super affordable and the stretchy, soft silicone material can expand to fit most penis sizes. Plus, its flat design prevents any potential slippage off the shaft. This is a great cock ring for those just looking to dip their toes (or their penises) into the category, but it's also a great choice for experienced cock ring users.
The Best Butt Plugs and Anal Toys
How to Use: Apply lubricant to anus and vibrator, then gently insert
We-Vibe has been at the forefront of long-distance partner play toys, from vibrating kegel balls to high-tech wands. But all of those frills would feel fruitless if the vibrator in question, the Vector+, wasn’t an absolute banger (luckily, it is). This workhorse is equipped with two motors and 10 settings for a variety of vibration and speed combos, whether you want more rumble towards your balls, the toy’s shaft—you name it, simply adjust the settings on the body of the toy itself, or via the remote control or smartphone app. At 3.5 inches in length and just over 1 inch in girth at its max, this is a solid intermediate toy, but it’s designed to handle even your most raucous smash seshes thanks to the extra-long, extra-secure base. Here’s an idea: Once inserted, rock back and forth while sitting on your butt while your partner blows or strokes you. Ideal Valentine’s Day weekend date!
How to Use: Start off with the smallest plug. Apply the lube of your choice to the plug and your anus, while gently inserting the plug. If and when you would like to graduate to a bigger plug (this can take as much time as you like, be it five minutes or an hour—no set rules here), apply more lube during the swap.
Every chef has their set of go-to knives, every carpenter, their trustiest tools. This set of glass anal plugs is one of my most trifectas for sex, whether I’m aiming for some backdoor foreplay or gearing up for full penile penetration. If the concept of glass sex toys sounds counterintuitive, fret not; these borosilicate glass toys are actually far more body-safe than your run-of-the-mill plastic toys, and will have less friction when entering your anus. The glass also provides a satisfying, slightly weighted sensation in the anus that can stimulate the P-spot. Each of these plugs is a star in its own right, but I find myself using the smallest size the most. At 4-inches of insertable length, it’s more small-medium in my book—but the narrow design makes it great for anal beginners.
How to Use: Apply water-based lube to the plug and slide it into your anus. Control it via the buttons on the toy or the Lovense app.
As someone in a long-distance relationship, I love the way Lovense toys can be controlled from near or far using the Lovense app, which is packed with fun features like video chat and the ability to create your own vibration patterns. This particular plug is one of Lovense's best products, IMO: The angle is adjustable, so this toy can apply exactly as much (or as little) pressure as you want. There are two motors, one on the prostate and one on the perineum, allowing for precise control over your experience.
How to Use: Apply a lube of your choice liberally to the plug and insert it anally, with the curve facing forward (toward the front of your body) to hit the prostate.
“For anyone who enjoys backdoor play, it's hard to beat glass butt plugs,” Trip Richards, a sex educator and porn performer, says. "Glass toys are easy to clean, compatible with all lubricants, and provide a pleasurable sense of fullness and weight." They also hold temperature really well, so if you want some especially interesting sensations, dip this plug in a bowl or warm or cold water for a few minutes before using it. The looped handle on this one makes it much easier to insert and remove, even with lubed fingers, and the plug itself is shaped perfectly to nestle into the prostate.
How to Use: Apply lubricant to the toy before inserting it.
"For guys who are first-timers looking to explore anal play, I would generally recommend a traditional prostate stimulator such the Aneros," Garrison says. "It's compact and easily inserted for newbies, and also includes touch points for perineum stimulation." Yep, those little balls on either end of the base actually have a practical purpose: They press into your taint while the plug's inside you, so your prostate gets massaged from the inside and the outside at once. As with many other Aneros toys, this one doesn't vibrate or anything, but is instead made to rub against the prostate whenever you squeeze your sphincter muscles. Many users report reaching explosive hands-free climaxes this way.
How to Use: Press and hold the toy’s button to turn it on or off. Short-press that same button to cycle through the toy’s 12 settings

Njoy
Pure Wand
- Stainless steel can apply firm pressure to the G-spot/prostate
- Curved shape allows you to rock the toy back and forth without much effort
- Holds cold and heat well—good for temperature play
- Double-ended design gives you two different size options
- Expensive
- May be uncomfortably firm for some users
How to Use: Apply lube as needed and insert vaginally or anally. Thrust or rock it in and out however feels best.
This elegant metal toy has a lot to offer for both cis and trans guys, says Richards. “For myself and my other vulva-having partners, curved metal wand toys are almost universally a guaranteed orgasm,” he says. “The curved shape stimulates the G-spot and often leads to squirting, while the slick heaviness of the metal itself provides a full feeling of satisfaction.” For men with prostates, this toy can target that zone instead, its curve and firmness allowing it to apply direct, unrelenting pressure. Richards likes that there's a small end and a larger end, so you can experiment with different sensations.
The Best Vibrators
How to Use: Externally, always, but otherwise there are many possibilities for a wand vibrator for clitoral and anal (again, exterior) stimulation; folks with male anatomy may enjoy sitting on the wand with the tip positioned on the perineum.
As it would turn out, the best beginner’s wand vibrator is also one of the most high-tech—but precisely because that tech’s benefits are so effortlessly accessed by the user. We-Vibe’s Wand 2 uses haptic technology, which is just a fancier way of saying that it will respond to pressure from your hand or body with equally-intense vibrations. The result is a very intuitive user experience, as well as an impressively quiet one; as far as wand vibes go, the Wand 2 makes very little noise, and it’s easy to maneuver with one hand thanks to the bendy body. Finally, because this is a We-Vibe toy, its 10 intensity levels and 10 vibration patterns can also be accessed from the app for some long-distance play.
How to Use: Press the power button to turn the toy on or off. Use the patterns button to cycle through different vibration modes, and the middle button to ramp up the speed settings.
Richards recommends this classic toy, which he considers “the gold standard of vibrators,” for anyone who wants to introduce strong sensations into their sex life, regardless of their gender or anatomy. “If you find [it] a bit intense, using it over underwear is a way to enjoy the buzzing sensation on clits and cocks without excessive direct stimulation,” he suggests. There are various versions of the Magic Wand, including an old-school one that plugs into the wall, but this rechargeable version is more convenient and has more settings than the electric model.
Wand Essentials
Hummingbird Masturbator Attachment
- Works with most standard-sized wand vibrators
- Pleasurable internal texture
- Open-ended design for easier cleaning
- Very affordable
- Translucent for a better view of what’s inside
- May not fit larger penises
- Porous material can’t be fully sanitized and won’t last as long as a non-porous material
How to Use: Slip the attachment over the head of your wand vibrator (some water-based lube can help if it’s a tight fit). Lube up the inside of the stroker with water-based lube, slide it onto your penis, and power the vibrator on. You can stroke it up and down or just leave it still.
While the Magic Wand (above) works just fine on its own for penises and vulvas alike, you may as well throw this attachment into your cart along with the wand if you want your (or someone else's) dick to be enveloped in vibration. This inexpensive add-on turns a wand into a vibrating stroker. I love using this toy on partners because of the intensity of the ridged and beaded texture on the inside; it's fun to watch someone react to it as I stroke it up and down with the vibration turned on.
Fun Factory
Manta Vibrating Penis Stroker
- Shaped to fit a variety of penis sizes
- Pleasurably ridged texture also holds onto lube for a smoother feel
- Six vibration patterns and six vibration speeds
- Combines well with blowjobs and some other partnered activities, but can also be used solo
- Tightness is not adjustable
- Can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
- Not well-suited for people who like full-shaft stimulation
How to Use: Apply water-based lubricant to the inside of the toy and turn it on using the buttons on the handle. You can hold it in place wherever feels good, or stroke it up and down.
“I frequently recommend that clients look into the Manta by Fun Factory,” says Garrison. “It is a vibrator toy specifically designed to be used by individuals with penises, and works great for solo or partnered play.” The flexible silicone “wings” of this toy allow it to fit a wide range of dick sizes, and its focused design lets it zero in on the frenulum or any other sensitive spots along your shaft that you want to target. Garrison likes the toy's ergonomic looped handle, both because it makes the toy more useable for people living with arthritis or grip issues, but also because it just makes the toy easier to cling onto when things get lube-y.
How to Use: Apply water-based lube to your penis and to the inside of the toy before sliding inside. Use the buttons on the toy to control its various functions and modes.
Gerek vouches that this toy makes for “explosive climaxes” with its combination of sucking, stroking, and vibration. Yes, there's even a “climax button” you can deploy when you're getting close to coming, and the toy will suck you in even deeper, mimicking a deep-throating sensation for an intense finish. It's got a cool space-age aesthetic, too, so it's kinda like getting a blowjob from a robot.
Types of Sex Toys for Guys
There are so many different categories of toys that it can be tough to know what’s what. Here’s a breakdown of the major types of male sex toys available for people with penises and prostates to enjoy.
Strokers: “Strokers (a.k.a. masturbation sleeves) are toys made out of soft materials (like silicone or TPE) that are designed to be penetrated,” says Lisa Finn, a sex educator and marketing director for Babeland. “[They have] one or more openings, and are often textured on the inside to add some extra stimulation beyond what your hand can offer during a solo sesh.” Some strokers vibrate, heat up, or have other pleasurable features, while some are just meant to be lubed up and slid up and down your shaft manually.
Cock Rings: “Cock rings can help aid with erectile function. [They] can be just as much sex tools as they are sex toys,” Finn says. Slide a cock ring down to the base of your penis and it can provide some constriction that keeps your boner harder for longer. Some cock rings vibrate, which both you and your partner might find pleasurable, while some are just simple, stretchy rings with no extra features.
Butt Plugs and Prostate Massagers: The anus is a super-sensitive area regardless of whether or not you’ve got a prostate – but if you do have one, stimulating it with a toy designed specifically for that purpose can take your pleasure to new heights. It’s got medical benefits, too. “It’s healthy to give your prostate stimulation to help with blood flow,” explains Susan Bratton, an intimacy expert and the author of Sexual Soulmates. “The orgasm from prostate pleasuring can be as delectable as the feeling one gets from pleasuring the tip of the penis with practice. All this tissue is just waiting for you to activate it.”
Penis Vibrators: While vibrators are most famously used for clitoral stimulation, they can feel good on plenty of other body parts, including the penis! “Vibrators increase sensation, lighting up more of our brain’s awareness of our genitals. Vibration is a pleasure amplifier,” Bratton says. Some penis vibrators are designed to wrap around the whole shaft, while some target specific spots, like the frenulum. You can also use vibrators on your dick that weren’t explicitly created with that purpose in mind, like wand-style vibes—the sensations tend to be similar, if slightly less form-fitted to your anatomy.
Penis Pumps: You know how Mission Impossible short king Tom Cruise wears elevator shoes sometimes, presumably to feel hot and boosted? You can kind of do the same thing for your penis with a penis pump. These sexual wellness devices fall more so on the side of sexual aid than toy, but can come in very clutch—a pump can make your penis feel larger and stay harder longer, and really help folks living with erectile dysfunction. Essentially, as sexual health expert Dr. Christopher Asandra tells GQ in this penis pump guide, a penis pump consists of a “vacuum device that creates a suction effect to increase and encourage more blood flow to the penis,” resulting in a harder, longer-lasting erection. As far as pump formats, users will have the choice of selecting manual or electronic pumps, and, sometimes, a pump kit will include a cock ring to slide over your then-erect penis.
