Why Are Realistic Dildos So Good?

Ever wondered why people love a realistic dildo?

Often made of a flexible but firm material like skin-safe rubber, the best realistic dildos are designed to deliver maximum pleasure while feeling as lifelike as possible.

Realistic dildos come in many different shapes and sizes, and plenty of different designs too. From glass dildos to double-ended dildos, strap on dildos or vibrating dildos, our most realistic dildos are as diverse as the real thing. With such a large range on the market, there truly is a toy out there for everyone.

The common denominator amongst the most realistic feeling dildos is, of course, their realistic, penis-like features - raised veins, a realistic glans and often a pair of bangers as the finishing touch.

Benefits of Realistic Dildos?

Although a lot of Aussies would consider this a toy box staple, there are many others who are yet to be convinced.

Why does it have to look so realistic? Surely if it doesn't vibrate, it's not worth it? Why does it have balls?

Hold on to your hat, mate - here’s what all the fuss is about when it comes to the most realistic dildos.

Incredible Stimulation

Along with a natural schlong shape comes a more natural feeling than you’d get with more other-worldly designs of dildo. The internal stimulation that comes from a real wang is often overlooked, but the bulging veins, shape of the head and firmness of the stiffy help to massage those sensitive internal nerve endings in your pussy and badonkadonk.

When these natural features are replicated in the form of a dildo, they too are very high achievers when it comes to intimate pleasure.

Many of the most realistic feeling dildos feature realistic nards too, which is an awesome addition for external stimulation of the clitoris or perineum during play. Usually firm and with added texture from the realistic detailing, they add that little extra touch help you towards that Big O. You beaut!

On-Demand Pleasure

Male erections are firm yet flexible for a reason - it allows for easy insertion and a comfortable fit during sex. The best realistic dildos share this clever design feature. The only difference is they’re erect at all times.

Just ensure there's plenty of water-based lube to hand to make your on-demand play its slippery best.

Small? Medium? Large? MASSIVE?

No one bushwhacker is identical. Variety really is the spice of life when it comes to penis size. The most realistic feeling dildos have followed suit, and we have an eclectic mix of lengths and girths here at Lovehoney to suit your nether region needs.

Whether it's 14 inches of sizeable length you have on your shopping list or just 6-inches of sausage, we've got it. Got a particular girth in mind? We can help with that too. The best realistic dildo for you isn’t necessarily the longest or the thickest. So, whether it's the 2–3 inch circumferences or double-hander 10+ inches you're after (or anything in between), you’ve come to the right place.

A Change From the Norm

If you just fancy something a bit different to what you're used to, a realistic dildo could be the answer. Even a slight size or shape change could make a huge difference to your experience. The best realistic dildo is different for everyone.

Real-feel dildos particularly lend themselves to fantasies and imaginary scenarios, especially if they involve someone you know - it can help the fantasy all the stronger if you’re feeling a realistic shape inside you.

If this person you are fantasising about is your kinky companion, you could even consider making your own realistic dildo with a Clone-A-Willy kit! A dildo modelled after a flagpole you’re actually ridden before? Doesn’t get more realistic than that!

Too Realistic?

If a flesh-coloured realistic dildo is going that one step too far in resembling the real thing, there are plenty of vibrantly coloured realistic dildos out there that feature the same detailing, just minus the lifelike skin colour.

Look. No Hands

Imagine being able to place your favourite penis in almost any position and angle without awkward legs, hands and who knows what else getting in the way. Drum roll please for the best realistic dildos with suction cups.

Stick them to almost any flat surface, be it your bathroom wall or your bedroom door, and enjoy your realistic dildo in a variety of locations. You don't even need to use your hands to keep it at the right angle.

With so many hugely popular non-anatomical sex toys available, what is it about realistic dildos that makes them a staple in the Lovehoney hall of popular toys? Let our team of experts explain.

Some lifelike dildos feature a suction cup base, like the Lovehoney Lifelike Lover Realistic Dildo 6 Inch. This allows you to press the sucker base against any flat surface to enjoy hands-free fun.

Strap It On!

Many people enjoy using realistic dildos for strap-on sex because it looks just like the real thing. As long as the realistic dildo you choose features a wide base, you'll be able to use it with a compatible dildo harness.

Strap-on harnesses feature an O-ring which slips over the length of the dildo to secure it in place. It's important to choose a harness with the right size O-ring to make sure you get a good fit.

Use our handy calculator to determine what size dildo fits your O-ring harness.

Why You Should Buy A Realistic-Feeling Dildo

A wonderful thing about this type of toy is how inclusive it is. Everybody has the means to try one out and therefore nobody needs to miss out on this type of fun!

They can be used vaginally, anally (if the dildo has a flared base), and even for oral and manual sex fantasies!

The point is, realistic dildos are great in that no one should ever feel left out, and anyone who wishes to delve into the world of sex toys can rest assured that a realistic dildo is a solid option for them to try out.

They Can Be Incorporated into All Types of Activities

Furthering their inclusivity, the best realistic dildos can be included as a part of all types of sexual activity too! Solo play, couples' play, BDSM, fantasies involving additional partners... the versatility really is an awesome thing with this type of toy. Whether you’re into back door action or are keen to see how it realistic it feels in your vajingo, there’s a perfect realistic dildo for every hole.

Due to the wide range of features available, there should be a realistic dildo out there which is perfect for whatever you are planning to do with it. If you are looking for a realistic dildo with a particular purpose in mind, be sure to think about these extra features that could make a toy the ideal one for you.

There are even particularly niche ones, such as fisting dildos, which are also realistic in the sense they are like a human fist, or even dildos attached to sex dolls, so realistic dildos truly are universal.

They Are Beautiful

This is such a simple reason, but oh-so-true. Realistic dildos are just so bloody lovely to look at. The human body is a beautiful thing, so how can something modelled after that be anything less than attractive?

When we say "realistic", often the first thing that comes to people's minds are the flesh-toned variety, which can be off-putting to some. Whilst indeed many are of this type, if that is something that just isn't your thing, do not fret!

Despite all falling into the same realistic category, the range of dildos you can buy is endless. Available in every colour of the rainbow, and made from all types of materials, the best realistic dildos can also be aesthetically appealing too.

If you really are averse to the look of extremely realistic toys, we definitely suggest checking out glass toys - it may surprise you to find that realistic shapes are available in this material, and we can assure you they are truly breath-taking mini sculptures of pleasure.
