10 popular toys for our readers based on your searches and visits.
I have a secret to tell you.
We're spying on you.
Well, not really spying spying. We just like to keep track of what kinds of sex toys you like, based on which pages you enjoy visiting the most.
And, as we expect from the wonderful, open-minded readers of Kinkly, we have made some interesting discoveries.
Here are 10 sex toys we know you're into!
Electrosex Toys
Electrosex toys come in several categories, two of the most popular being e-stim and violet wands.
E-Stim Toys
E-stim units send electrical currents through your body for deeper sensations and hands-free orgasms. One thing we must mention here: learn how to use these safely! There are many contraindications and risks to using e-stim toys, so make sure you go in with all the knowledge in hand.
E-stim can be used on the skin with conducting pads or internally with vibrators or butt plugs. There are even e-stim crops that send a small shock with each swipe!

Violet Wands
Another cool kind of electrosex toy is the famous violet wand. A violet wand is a machine that produces an electrical current that you can use on someone's body (stay away from the heart and the brain though!). It gets its "violet" qualifier because of the color of the current, which is, you guessed it, violet.
Most wand kits come with several attachments that provide different sensations and effects. It's a really great toy for dark dungeons and performances because of how visually stunning it is!

The genital clamp category includes clit and labia clamps. And, from what we can tell, our readers are totally into them.
Clamps come into a few general types: tweezer, gator, and clover. Tweezer clamps are generally the mildest, but they're not very secure. Gator clamps (covered in rubber, of course) are more secure and can be adjusted without having to play with the clamp itself, unlike tweezers. Clover clamps are tricky: if you pull on them, they get tighter. It makes for very interesting predicament torture!
Always be safe playing with clamps: don't leave one on for more than 15-20 minutes, as more than that could cause tissue damage.

Explore different kinds of sensations and positions with the help of sex furniture. By reducing the pressure on your body, you can reach new heights of pleasure with your partner, or even alone!
Sex Swings
One classic example of bondage furniture is the sex swing. Install it securely from the ceiling or using a solid frame, set the receiving partner comfortably in it (they sometimes come with restraints too!) and start swinging.
Sex swings are a great tool if you want prolonged sex sessions, or if you want to explore deep and athletic positions, without being an actual athlete.

Wedges
Foam wedges are a must-have for any serious explorers of sexual pleasure. The angle makes oral sex, doggy-style, and missionary penetration easier on both partners. Over the years, companies have produced several variations on the wedge, including S-shaped furniture (that serves as sitting space for non-sexy times), as well as wedge combos for more varied positioning.
This is not where the world of sex furniture ends, but it's a great place to start exploring!

Bondage Rope
Whether you like playing the damsel in distress on being the one in charge, rope bondage is both practical and artistic: restrain your partner and adorn them with beautiful patterns and colors made of rope.
Whether you're using Western-style rope bondage or Shibari techniques, bondage rope lets you be creative in the ways you position your partner... and then maybe have your way with them once they're helpless.

They say anal sex is the new oral, and for good reason; the anal area is filled with sensitive nerve endings that can make playtime very pleasurable, if you know what you're doing.
As an introduction to anal play, butt plugs are your most basic toys. They come in all shapes and sizes, from beginner-small to expert-huge. Some are ribbed or curved, others are straight or smooth. Some even vibrate!
Whatever your tastes, though, make sure that your butt plug is made of body-safe materials, like your favorite dildo and vibrator. Use plenty of lube, and go slowly.

While the function of butt plugs is to make you feel full and enhance penetration (or make you slightly uncomfortable in BDSM situations), anal beads are a pleasure by themselves. You insert the string slowly, then quickly pull on it (especially during an orgasm!) for intense sensations.
Today's anal beads are actually more like anal insertion toys with bead-like ridges, usually made of flexible silicone. It's much safer and hygienic than the old string-and-plastic stuff.
Impact Toys
There are so many types of impact toys that I can't write about them all here, but I will consider two of the most popular: paddles and crops.
Paddles
Paddles can be thuddy or stingy depending on their material and size. Larger paddles have a more distributed area, which means a more diffused pain. It also matters if the paddle is leather supported by wires (mild) or with a hard plastic or wood core (more severe).
Of course, how hard you hit also makes a difference. Exploring with different kinds of paddles is actually one of the most fun things you can do in kinky play.

Crops
Because the impact area is small, crops are much more stingy, and can deliver a lot of pain if used in specific ways. Even light taps can bring on interesting sensations, and not just on the butt: crops are small enough to be used on breasts, thighs, and even genital areas (gently, though!)
The best crops are made of leather with a flexible (but not too much) handle. Some add a bit of a slapper at the end, for extra measure.
