- Pussy pumps combine air suction with a vacuum seal for an ultra-intense sucking sensation.
- Tongue vibrators or clit vibrators have a tongue-like protrusion that can flick and swirl around the sensitive knot.
- Blowjob simulators use vibration, suction, or texture to recreate the sensation of a deep throat or warm, wet mouth.
Shape: Oral sex toys vary in weight, shape, and size, and there are potential pros to all. Slim options (like the We-Vibe Melt 2 and Womanizer Premium 2) fit seamlessly between two bodies, while those with handles (like the Satisfyer Pro 2) can be more easily used standing, face-down, or belly-up.
