In case you’re really scrambling, I really enjoyed a post on the new website Daily Bedpost written by Em & Lo from Nerve about the best toys to buy as a gift for a partner. The post is in response to someone asking if it’s appropriate to buy a sex toy for a partner. To which I wholeheartedly answer, yes!

Here’s some of Em & Lo’s awesome advice:

Make sure you buy something that’s actually built for your partner’s pleasure, rather than some gimmicky bachelor/bachelorette party gag gift. If your boyfriend has always wanted to tie you up, then give him the festively colored Candy Apple Wrist Restraints (they’re rock-star sexy and a hell of a lot more comfortable than police-issue cuffs) with a handwritten permission slip.

Or for something more tailored for two, try the Tuyo vibrator–it even looks like a Christmas tree bauble! If you’re not sure what would float your partner’s boat, take them to your local sex toy retailer after a romantic dinner and tell them to pick any toy in the store that takes their fancy.

There’s one weekend left to shop. You’ve read all of the other holiday gift guides: Violet Blue on sex books, Mark Morford on everything, Tristan Taormino‘s new sex toy extravaganza. Is another list really necessary? It is if it’s a bit more personal. If you know someone who fits the bill for any of the below, they’re sure to like the toy.t

For the shy girl who “never masturbates” and “has never watched porn”: Aqua Erotica. Waterproof books are great for taking into a nice private bath. And, she won’t have to worry if she drops it when her fingers start rockin’

For the former rodeo queen who misses feeling the “saddle between her legs”: The Cone. Who knew they would make a vibrator that you could actually mount?

For your friend with a platform bed or a mattress on the floor: Under The Bed Restraints. Don’t have a bedpost? No worries. All you need to tie someone up but good is a mattress and 10 minutes to get the surprise set up (with consent, of course!)

For the boy who likes a pinky up his ass every now and then (you’re out there, I know you are): Aneros. Go on, take it one step further. The testimonials don’t lie – it feels amazing.

For your tongue tied friend whose boyfriend wants her to take charge but she doesn’t know where to start: Candida Royalle’s How to Tell a Naked Man What To Do. The name says it all. And Candida Royalle rocks.
For the couple that likes to do everything together: The Babeland Silver Bullet. One person holds the toy, while the other controls the vibration. Who does what? You figure it out! This egg vibe is a classic for a reason.

For the girl who says “I bet you can’t get your whole hand inside me…”: Gloves and Eros Silicone Lube. You’ll need a lot of patience and the smoothest surface possible. Take it slowly and enjoy the feeling of your hand being surrounded by deliciousness. Oh, and don’t forget A Hand in the Bush: A guide to vaginal fisting.
For you friend who watches too much mainstream porn and doesn’t know what he’s missing: Behind the Green Door. Nothing beats the classics and Behind the Green Door does not disappoint. My favorite part is the audience: people of every color, shape, age, etc all getting it on with lovely abandon. Cookie cutter porn stars – be gone!
