How To Start the Conversation

Introducing sex toys into a relationship is all about timing, tone and empathy. Here’s how to approach it:

1.Pick the right moment.

Choose a relaxed, private setting where you can both talk openly without distractions. Timing is everything-don’t bring it up during a heated argument or an already stressful moment.

2. Use open, Positive Language.

Instead of framing it as something your partner “needs” make it about what you can explore together. For example:

“I’ve been thinking about ways we can have even more fun in the bedroom-what do you think about trying a toy together?”

3. Gauge Their Feelings

Be ready for different reactions. Your partner may be curious, hesitant, or even a little nervous. Reassure the, that it’s about mutual enjoyment, not replacing anything already wonderful in your relationship.

Choosing the Right Toy Together

If your partner is open to the idea, make it a collaborative process!

1. Start Small.

Begin with something non-intimidating, like a vibrating ring, or a bullet vibrator, or massage oils. These are perfect for beginners and don’t feel overwhelming.

2. Shop Together

Visit an Ottawa Sex shop or browse online as a couple! This can turn toy shopping into a fun bonding experience. Look for sections dedicated to couples or beginners.

3. Ask for Suggestions

Unsure what to pick? Our Best sellers section is a great place to find trusted, highly rated products. Plus, our friendly support team is always available to help any questions discreetly.

Making the First Experience Comfortable

Trying a sex toy for the first time should feel exciting, not pressured.

  • Set the mood: Create a relaxing environment with soft lightening, music or candles.
  • Take it slow: Start with something simple, like using a massager on each other to get comfortable with the idea.
  • Use Lubricant: Pair the toy with a compatible lube to enhance comfort and sensations. Check out our lubricant collection for body-safe options online or in our sex shop!
  • Communicate: Check in with each other throughout to make sure it’s enjoyable and fun.

Addressing Common Concerns

If your partner seems hesitant, don’t worry-this is normal! Adress common concerns with patience and empathy:

1.Will a toy replace me?

  • Reassure your partner that toys are meant to enhance your intimacy, not replace it. They’re tools for shared pleasure.

2. Feeling Nervous?

  • It’s okay to feel unsure! Start slow with non-intimidating toys to build comfort.

3. Unsure about what to try?

  • Suggest browsing products together at our Sex Shop, Sensual Flix Adult Boutique, where you’ll find detailed descriptions and assistance ready to help out!

When to Take a Step Back

If your partner isn’t ready, respect their boundaries. Let them know the conversation is open and that you’re happy to revisit it in the future. Sometimes, people just need time to warm up to new ideas.

    The benefits of silicone adult sex toys

    What makes silicone sex toys distinct from other adult sex toys available at Sensual Flix Adult Boutique Ottawa? Silicone is a rubber like material and is generally non-reactive, stable, and resistant to extreme environments and temperatures. It is free from phthalates – substances added to plastics to create them and longer lasting and much more versatile –  are believed to harbour chemicals which could outcome in mutagenic and carcinogenic effects on the skin. Some of the less expensive adult sex toys within the adult marketplace include phthalates which could or could not lead to harm to the skin.
    Silicone sex toys at Sensual Flix Adult Boutique Ottawa are produced from superior quality medical grade silicone that is used in medical applications as well. Medical grade silicone is perfectly suited towards the production of adult toys since it is sturdy and difficult. Silicone sex toys for adults also have a lot of other plus points when compared with less expensive counterparts. As stated, they do not contain phthalates in them. They also possess the good quality of becoming silky smooth to the touch and are soft enough to become inserted but rigid enough to retain their shape and give you a genuine satisfaction. Silicone adult sex toys are also non toxic, odourless, tasteless, hypoallergenic, anti allergenic, waterproof and consequently easy to clean. Their durable properties also allow them to be heated up, cooled down and even cleaned in the dishwasher. A number adult sex toys produced from silicone include the added advantage of getting some flexibility which means they’re able to be molded into different shapes bringing about an advantage to target your sweet spot. Come in and check out the large selection of silicone sex toys at Sensual Flix Adult Boutique.
