There’s nothing worse than getting out of bed on a cold winter’s day. So here’s an easy way to entertain yourself and your partner – I mean, why not?

While sex toys carry the stigma of being a women-only experience, more and more men are opening up to the idea. Instead of falling into the trap of a monotonous sexual routine, it’s healthy to spice things up – although not many know how.

We’re all kinds of clued up, because we’ve been keeping an eye on what industry leaders Désir have to offer – vibrators (HERE), dildos (HERE), for many these are still words that bring a blush to the cheeks.

People may avert their gaze when it comes to using sex toys in the bedroom, but going along with the motto of trying everything once is way more interesting than just sticking to the missionary position with a little boob action.

But it’s important to remember that sex toys are still extremely personal items, and what might work for you may not work for your partner. Hence the value in having an open conversation about it, and trying a few toys to find out what works for the both of you. Also, reviews are really important in this regard and will help both of you achieve ultimate satisfaction.

Here are my favourite winter toys, for both couples and individuals, to bring some extra heat to the bedroom area. The first one has a little tutorial for you, just in case.

You can have a good look around on Désir, the online shop for luxurious and sophisticated adult toys from all over the globe. Their customer satisfaction is on point – in more ways than one.
