Male sex toys are a lot more versatile and much more common than you think. They’re not for lonely researchers sitting in Arctic outposts thousands of miles from civilization, lubricating with their own tears (well, not JUST for them), and they’re not only found in BDSM dungeons and sex clubs.

Male sex toys are for every man who enjoys sex and masturbation. Why? Because male sex toys make both of those things BETTER.

For as hard as guys work, we deserve to enjoy our downtime as much as possible.

The best sex toys for men are affordable and easy to use, and they deliver climaxes that make your hand seem like stone-age technology. That may be why so many men are trying sex toys and saying: “Why the f*#k didn’t I try this sooner?”

“Why the f*#k didn’t I try this sooner?” - Every Guy Who’s Ever Tried a Male Sex Toy.

Do you remember when you got your first video game console? Maybe it was an Atari; maybe it was an N64, or maybe an Xbox 360. Whatever it was, you definitely remember the excitement and joy it brought to your life.

You probably felt similar joy and a little more magic when you first realized that by moving your hand in a repeated jerking motion, you could give yourself an orgasm.

Now THAT was a great day.

But as yourself this: Are you still using that same gaming console? Probably not.

Sure, it’s still fun and full of memories, and it holds a special place in your heart. But you probably upgraded a long time ago and are likely about to upgrade again.

So, why are you still using your hand to jerk off?

Your hand is like the original Playstation of masturbation. Using a male sex toy is like the PS5—it’s f*#king amazing.

Technology has given us tons of advancements to make sex and masturbation better, yet so many men are stuck in the past. This doesn’t just limit your solo pleasure. It also limits the fun you can have with your partner.

It even robs you of different types of male orgasms you can have (we’ll tell you how later on).

The point? It’s time for an upgrade.

Don’t wait. Don’t waffle. Don’t make excuses.

If you do, you’ll only kick yourself harder when you finally try a toy and say to yourself: “Why the f*#k didn’t I try this sooner?”

Types of Adult Toys for Men

There are a lot more sex toys for men than just dildos and pocket pussies. We’ve compiled a complete list AND included links to our top picks of the best sex toys for men.

Read on to find a male sex toy for your lifestyle and preference.

Masturbation Sleeves

A masturbation sleeve is a solo toy that you slide over your Johnson before you start strokin’. It’s called a sleeve because it’s a textured tube that’s open at both ends.

Though sometimes it’s closed at one end, making it look more like a cylindrical cup.   These are sometimes called “pocket pussies” or just “masturbators”.

Masturbation sleeves make the solo time much more pleasurable because they replace the feel of your hand with the sensation of a vagina, ass, mouth, or a bevy of other tantalizing textures.

Manufacturers have got the pleasure factor down to a science. By adding ribs, gears, ticklers, and suction, they have boosted the intensity to levels you have to feel to believe. Just add lube, and you’re ready to go.

These male masturbators are affordable and discreet sex toys for men, and they make masturbation so much better. We recommend spending a bit more on a sleeve that’s durable and easy to clean.

The Tenga Flip 0 is our favorite masturbation sleeve. Built to last, you can use this sleeve over and over and experience different sensations every time, thanks to its simple pressure control.

The Tenga Flip 0 is a hinged sleeve, so it opens completely and cleans in seconds.

Cock rings

Cock rings are fun to use along and during sex with a partner. To use one, you place it around the base of the penis (and sometimes around the balls as well).

The ring constricts the blood vessels at the base of the penis to keep more blood inside the shaft. This results in harder erections, longer-lasting pleasure, and super-charged orgasms.

The best thing about cock rings is that they’re simple and affordable. You can get one for as little as a few bucks and instantly achieve harder erections and more intense orgasms.

Top 3 Cock Rings

A simple, must-have for every man. These cock rings are made of soft and stretchy rubber that always returns to their original shape.

They provide a tight fit without digging into the skin, and it’s elastic enough to fit around the balls.

Here’s one for the cock ring connoisseurs.

The Satisfyer Power ring is a remote-controlled cock ring with several vibration settings.

It doesn’t just get you harder. It also sends waves of vibrating pleasure to intensify every stroke. It’s great to use during sex, too, especially for clitoral stimulation with female partners.

This ring doesn’t have different vibration levels, but we can't complain ~$20.

Anal toys for men

Many men have never experienced the pleasure of anal masturbation or anal play with a partner. But the butt is an opening to a world of new pleasures, including an entirely different type of male orgasm—the prostate orgasm.

The rectum is full of sensitive nerve endings that can tease and tantalize during penile masturbation as well. Let’s take a quick dive into the realm of anal toys.

Tip: When using anal toys, remember to lube up with an anal lubricant like Boy Butter.

Butt plugs

Butt plugs are (drum roll…) plugs for your butthole. But plugs are made of plastic, rubber, or glass.

One end has a shaft or bulb that you insert into your anus, and the other end has a wide base that prevents over-insertion.

Butt plugs stimulate the nerve endings around your rectum and can even help you achieve a prostate orgasm.

Prostate massagers

Prostate massagers are curved shafts that, when inserted into the butt, allow you to stimulate your prostate for explosive orgasms.

This type of orgasm comes in waves and is up to 10 times more intense than penile orgasms. You’ve got to try it.

Anal beads

Anal beads are a string or rope of beads that you put inside your butt.

They stimulate the same nerves as butt plugs, but they do so via movement (butt plugs stimulate by adding pressure).

To use anal beads, insert them into the rectum and then pull them out slowly. Anal beads can also stimulate the prostate during penile masturbation, but you might need a partner to help.

Dildos

Dildos are rubber, plastic, or glass shafts that you can insert into your butt for deeper penetration.

Many of them are shaped like penises, but it doesn’t matter. Look for one with a suction cup end for easy solo play.

Top 3 Anal Toys

Super durable, affordable, and attractive, this glass butt plug is ideal for rectal dilation and for applying pressure to those sensitive nerves.

The wide bulb is the perfect size for intense stimulation, while the tapered shaft below provides a comfortable and safe fit.

It’s also remote-controlled, so you can masturbate in comfort without any awkward reaching or stretching.

Realistic Vaginas

A realistic vagina is a full rubber or silicone replica of a vagina and butt. These sex toys are a big step up from masturbation sleeves.

They are larger sculpted sex toys for men, and they’re meant to be placed on a surface when you use them. That way, you can actually thrust into them to replicate the real thing.

Realistic vaginas provide a more comprehensive sensory experience. You can see the vagina and rectum; you can feel the cheeks and move your entire body.

It’s great to pull out and switch from vaginal to anal, and each opening is made to match the real thing's feel.

Some porn stars even make realistic vaginas modeled after their exact dimensions. They require a bit more maintenance, but it’s worth it.

Sex Dolls

Sex dolls are the final frontier of sex toys for men. While you may have seen blow-up sex dolls at bachelor parties, some sex dolls are pretty high-tech.

Modern versions go for thousands of dollars, and every single detail of the doll feels and looks like the real thing.

Sex dolls are the toy for the true connoisseurs among men. On the upside, they can recreate most sex acts and positions with surprising accuracy. On the downside, they’re pricy and take up a lot of space.

Penis Pumps

Penis pumps are a great companion if you’re a fan of using cock rings. These pumps create a vacuum seal around your shaft and pull the blood into the penis, creating a bigger, harder erection.

By adding a cock ring, you can maintain a larger hard-on for sex or masturbation duration. When you finally climax, you’ll enjoy even more pressure than if you were just using a cock ring, resulting in a truly explosive finish.

Gags and Straps

For BDSM and fetish play, gags and straps are a must. But you don’t need to be into any fringe kinks to enjoy them.

Getting hand-cuffed and teased is enough to make anyone’s heart pound. And adding a sex swing to your room can transform your sex life with a partner by adding hundreds of new positions.

The great thing about straps is they’re so versatile. You can find plenty of ways to play!

Gags are a bit kinkier, but if you haven’t tried them, you really should. Being gagged takes away your autonomy and allows you to enjoy every surprising sensation your partner applies.

It’s the best way to explore a Sub/Dom kink.

Top Sex Furniture

A sex swing can instantly renew your sex life by adding hundreds of new positions to your list.

The Deluxe Fantasy Door Swing is one of the strongest and easiest to use. As long as you have a door frame, you can have a sex swing. The straps are padded and strong for secure and pain-free fun.

---

The Dame Pillo is a sex pillow that allows you more comfortably try out new penetration angles.

It can also help you to maximize pleasure during your go-to positions.

---

Lube

Lubricant is the key to unlocking all types of adult toys. You can’t enjoy most sex toys for men without it.

But, lubricant can be a toy in and of itself. During masturbation with your hand, lube can make everything feel softer and wetter.

There are also several different lubes to try, including tingling, warming, and numbing lubes. Each provides a new sensation to explore.

Don’t forget to choose the right lube for your toy and your activity. For example, some toys require water-based lubes. When using anal toys, you may want to use anal lubes, as they are often silicone or oil-based and longer-lasting.

Top 3 Lubricants

Sliquid H2O is Condomania's best-selling adult lube. It's super slick and cleans up easily because of it's water base.

---

SPUNK combined a water-based and silicone-based lubricant to create a lube with the best of both worlds—a slick, soft lube that resembles the look and feel of natural body lubrication and reactivates with water.

What is the best anal sex toy for men?

The best anal sex toy for men depends on the type of anal play each man enjoys.

Men who want to have prostate orgasms will probably think prostate massagers are the best anal sex toys. Others might prefer butt plugs, anal beads, or dildos.

You can find all the best anal sex toys in our curated collection of anal toys at Condomania.

What is the best male sex toy for masturbation?

The best male sex toy for masturbation is a masturbation sleeve. These masturbators bring new sensations to masturbation by adding ribs, gears, rotation, suction, and more to the classic act of jerking off.

For anal masturbation, the best sex toy might be a prostate massager. These curved anal toys can help men to massage the prostate and achieve powerful prostate orgasms.

What type of lube should I use with my male sex toy?

That depends. If you’re using a sex toy for masturbation, you should check the toy's product label. Some toys, such as glass toys, are compatible with all types of lube. Others are not.

If you’re using a toy during sex with a condom, you should use a water-based lubricant. Non-water-based lubes can damage latex condoms.

For anal toys, we suggest using anal lube. These lubricants are thicker, slicker, and longer-lasting.

Condomania has one of the internet’s largest lube selections, so you’re sure to find the right bottle for any toy or occasion.

How do you clean a male sex toy?

It depends. You should read the product label or packaging to find the best way to clean your toy.

Basic rubber or silicone toys like dildos, cock rings, and some masturbation sleeves can be easily cleaned with soap and water.

Other toys, such as vibrating toys, have electrical components, so cleaning them may require more care.

The right way to clean your toy also depends on the type of lube you use. Some lubricants wash off easily, and some don’t.

The easiest way to clean your sex toy is with a sex toy cleaner. These cleaners will disinfect your toy to remove all germs, and they’ll leave it so sparkling clean that you’ll want to display it on your coffee table.
