They say that two is better than one. A double-ended dildo is proof of this. With a double-ended dildo, you can have fun with a partner or yourself.
Double-ended dildos are available in most sex stores and come in several sizes. No matter your preference, you can find the perfect dildo for your needs.
Once I saw the right one, the pleasure was twice the fun!
However, you may not know where to begin. There are a lot of double-ended dildos for sale, and not all of them are for you.
That’s why I made this post. We’ll look at the benefits of double-ended dildos, what to consider before buying one, and how to use them.
Let’s start by talking about the benefits of using one.

Benefits of Using a Double-Ended Dildo
Fun With a Partner
Perhaps the most well-known benefit is that they are great for playing with a partner. You can stick one end in yourself and the other in your partner.
Then, the two of you can go to town and experience shared pleasure.
They’re great for lesbian couples, straight couples where the man enjoys a good pegging, or anyone else on the sexual spectrum.
Bendable for Solo Play
Many double-ended dildos are pretty bendable, letting you put one end in your pussy and the other in your ass.
Or, you can try double vaginal. Or, if you’re fearless, double anal.
With that said, the bending ability of a double-ended dildo ultimately depends on which one you are purchasing.
Some are more rigid than others.
Great for Experimentation
Finally, double-ended dildos, due to the above two factors, make experimentation a breeze.
Trying different positions and seeing what you like or dislike is easy. Experimentation makes for a great sex life.
So, if your sex life feels a bit stale, buy yourself a double-ended dildo.

What Types of Double Dildos Exist?
While all double-ended dildos share similarities, there are some differences. Here are several types of double-ended dildos.
Straight
A straight dildo has two equally long ends. It lacks any curves or any gimmicks. A straight dildo is excellent if you want the essential experience without the bells and whistles.
Do not think of straight as the vanilla option. Think of it as the tried and tested way to achieve a great orgasm.
Curved
Do you want to reach that G/P-spot? Then you want a curved dildo. This one has angled ends that are bent to reach those oh-so-sensitive pleasure spots.
Vibrating
Simply put, these dildos come with built-in vibration. While more expensive and less bendable, a vibrating double-end dildo can send you to heaven with the pleasure it gives you.
Glass
A double-ended glass dildo is excellent for temperature play. Heat it, cool it, or enjoy it at room temperature. The only downside is that these dildos are not bendable at all.

Factors to Consider When Buying a Double-Ended Dildo
When you’re shopping for a dildo at the sex shop or online, what works best for you? Here are some considerations.
The Design
I’ve already mentioned the main types of double-ended dildos. Now you have to decide whether the dildo’s aesthetics suit your needs.
Some dildos will look realistic, while others will look more like toys. These dildos also come in different colors.
The dildo’s design is an easy consideration since you can see a picture of it and determine if you like the design.
Materials
What materials is the dildo made from? I’ve already mentioned glass as being good for temperature play.
Otherwise, you should go with silicone.
Silicone dildos are non-porous, which means that all it takes is a little bit of soap and water to clean them after use.
Dildos made from PVC, “soft plastic,” or other porous materials can be affordable, but they are also harder to clean.
Your Budget
Double-ended dildos come in all price ranges. You can find options for around $30, or you can spend over $100 for one.
The price can depend on its size, materials, features, and more.
If your budget is smaller, consider the most important feature you want. Then, see if an affordable dildo has that.
Size
Due to their nature, many double-ended dildos are pretty long. Regarding these dildos, the girth is a more significant consideration.
How thick do you want the dildo to be when it’s inside of you? Also, do you want both ends to be equal in girth?
Some double-ended dildos have it, so one head is larger than the other.
The smaller head is excellent for anal. You can usually find a dildo’s dimensions on the box or in the product description.
How to Use a Double-Ended Dildo
Now, I’ll tell you how to use a double-ended dildo the right way.
Find the Right Type of Dildo for You
I’ve already mentioned the factors to consider when purchasing a double-ended dildo. So visit your favorite shop or online store.
Once you find the dildo you’re looking for, order it or bring it home.
Get in the Mood
To truly enjoy your experience, you need to be in the mood. You don’t want to force yourself to get off.
Especially for your first time.
If you’re using a double-ended dildo with your partner, they should be in the mood, too. There are ways you can get in the mood, of course. Do it on a stress-free day.
Have a nice massage before you try the dildo. Go on a date. Just make sure that you’re in the mood to have fun.
Remember to Use Lube!
Lubricant is always essential, especially if you or your partner are doing anal. Water-based lube is versatile and works for all dildo types.
Pure silicone lubes can be fantastic if you want to use as little as possible. However, this lube can damage silicone toys.
A hybrid lube can give you the best of both worlds. No matter which lube you choose, apply enough and reapply if needed.
Choose the Best Position
The best sexual position depends on your preferences and your body type. Later on in this article, I will give you positions to try.
Once you find the best position, you’re on to the next step.
Inserting the Dildo
It’s simple. Put the dildo inside of you. If you’re trying anal and you’re having difficulties, do not force it.
Instead, use a smaller toy to prepare yourself.
Positions to Try With a Double-Ended Dildo
There are many positions that you can try with a double-ended dildo. Here are some you can try. Of course, I recommend you experiment on your own and see what you can achieve.
Couple Sex Positions
Scissors
This position works well for lesbian couples or two vagina owners for our trans readers. Use pillows to prop yourselves up.
Position your leg over your partner’s opposite leg. You two should be pretty close now. Slip each end inside, then begin.
To get the action, reach one hand under your leg to help move the dildo.
Double Header
This position is also known as ass-to-ass. Each person gets on their hands and knees and puts their butts close to each other.
Place the dildo inside each of your holes, and then rock back. This position works great for both vaginal and anal.
Cowgirl/Reverse Cowgirl
This position works best for hetero couples. Have one end inside your vagina or other area, and then bend the other end inside of your partner.
To enhance this experience, you can use a vibrating ring or other sex toys to bring more stimulation!
Face-Off
Begin by facing each other while sitting. Get into a crab position using your hands and feet. Use the double dildo and slide it between the two of you.
You can then thrust forward while intertwining your legs. This position can deliver great pleasure while still maintaining eye contact.
Crouching Prone
Think of this position as doggy style meets spooning. It can be challenging to get the toy inside of you when you use this position.
But it can be a great way to experience reacharounds! You can also use other toys with your partner in this position.
Solo Sex Positions
Are you all by your lonesome? Have no fear! A double-ended dildo can also be great for masturbation.
Sure, it can be a little more difficult to unlock the dildo’s full potential, but once you do, the pleasure you feel is unmatched!
Spooning
We tend to think of spooning as a couple’s thing. However, you can reach both holes easily when you get into the spooning position solo.
This position’s practicalness is, of course, assuming you have a vagina.
The best way for you to obtain the most benefits from this position is to have a double-ended dildo with one end more petite than the other.
Unless, of course, you’re an anal expert!
Squatting Cowgirl
To do this position, squat down and then curve the dildo to reach both holes. This position can be challenging because it does require you to be well-trained in squats.
You also need to keep the dildo inside of you. For some people, this position can feel more like a chore. However, if you know what you’re doing, you can reach some fantastic orgasms.
I tried this position, and I think I need to go to the gym a few more times to master it. But maybe you can do better.

Standing Doggy Style
Stand and then bend over. Standing doggy style is another position that can be difficult to master, as it does require some work.
But if you can do it, you can go deep.
These are just some positions to get you started with. As you can see, couples benefit more from double-ended dildos.
However, these dildos can be great for solo play, too. But with that said, if you’re inexperienced, you may want to try using a regular dildo.
Tips For Using a Double-Ended Dildo
Before I go, here are some more tips for using a double-ended dildo.
- Again, use a lot of lube. Even if you naturally get wet, some dildos can be girthy. Trust me. A water-based lube is one of the best ways to enjoy the fun.
- Go slow. This isn’t a race. Getting both ends inside of you or your partner can be difficult if you try to rush. If you are in a rush, wait until you have more free time.
- Be sure to wash the dildo off after every use. For silicone or glass dildos, just a mild soap and warm water. Let the dildo air dry, then put it in a cloth bag. Porous dildos may need more cleaning. Use a condom on those, or get a silicone or glass.
- Avoid interchanging the ends if one dildo is smaller than the other. The smaller end is specifically designed for anal, and you may get injured if you’re not experienced. If you do want to mix it up, be sure to watch both ends beforehand.
- Do not go too big if you’re inexperienced. Buy a less girthy dildo. If it’s too big, you may not want to use it.
- If you have a glass dildo, don’t forget to try temperature play. Heat it, or cool it down, and then stick it inside of you. With that said, know your temperature limits. Don’t get the dildo too hot or cold.
- Try to get yourself in shape. Do a few squats or Kegel exercises. These exercises can unlock some more positions.
- Most importantly, have fun! Do what makes you and your partner feel good. If a position doesn’t work for you, it doesn’t work. Everyone is different at the end of the day.
