The orgasm gap is the surprisingly large difference between genders in achieving orgasm during heterosexual intercourse. A few years ago, the term made its way into both everyday sexuality conversations and scientific discourse.

One study published in Archives of Sexual Behavior shows that heterosexual men answered "usually/always" 95% of the time when asked how often they achieved orgasm during partnered intercourse.
On the other side? Only 65% of women answered that they orgasm "usually/always" during partnered intercourse. That leaves a 30% difference between heterosexual men who orgasm and heterosexual women who orgasm during partnered sex.
Fun fact: of the participants who identified as lesbians, 86% reported that they "usually/always" had an orgasm during partnered sex.
How can we close the orgasm gap?
One of the easiest ways to help close this gap is by making sure woman and people with vulvas get clitoral stimulation during penis-in-vagina intercourse. Sure, vaginal stimulation can feel amazing, but only 18.4% of women say intercourse alone is enough for orgasm.
Adding in that clitoral stimulation can be as simple as making room in your favorite sex positions for your partner's fingers or their favorite vibrator.
Or, it can also be as simple as picking up a couple's vibrator like the We-Vibe Sync 2.
So, what IS the We-Vibe Sync 2?
We-Vibe took the world by storm when they released their initial We-Vibe years and years ago. It's a U-shaped toy designed to slip into the vagina for hands-free stimulation that pleasures the g-spot and the clitoris during sex.
Not only that, but it's designed to fit in the vagina alongside a penis. This means you can have penis-in-vagina sex while simultaneously pleasuring the clitoris and g-spot. And you don't even need to change what you were already doing!

Sounds cool, right? Yeah, we think so too.
We-Vibe upped the ante with their We-Vibe Sync 2, a simple-to-use vibrator designed to add even more pleasure during sex. The powerful vibrations are focused on the clitoris, but they can be felt through the internal arm as well. This means that the penis-owner gets to feel those delicious vibes too!
The U-shaped design might look a bit odd, especially if you're used to vibes that look more like dildos. But this U-shaped design actually has a purpose! One end of that U slides into the vagina while the other arm of the U stays firmly in place outside of the vagina, resting against the vulva and clitoris.
The Sync 2 customizes to fit your body. The insertable end has a hinge joint that allows the it to bend closer (or further away!) from the g-spot, allowing you to customize how much pressure you want every time you insert the Sync 2.
Complete control over your pleasure... and your partner's pleasure
To ensure nothing interrupts your intimate moment, the We-Vibe Sync 2 comes with a remote control. Equipped with four buttons that allow you to precisely control the vibration patterns and intensity, it only takes one click to instantly swap up the sensations!
And the We-Vibe Sync 2 has quite a few vibration options, 10 of them, to be exact! Select the strongest modes when you want to rush quickly to climax, but feel free to experiment with the softer vibrations when you're hoping to draw out your sexy moment.
Completely hands-free, the We-Vibe Sync 2 offers a simple "set it and forget it" design that seamlessly works with the sex you're already having.

It's really that simple.

How Do You Use This Weird-Shaped Thing?
If you haven't used a couples vibrator before, the We-Vibe Sync 2 is definitely a very different experience because it's one of the few, unique vibrators specifically crafted to be used during intercourse alongside a penis!
Here's your simple, step-by-step instructions on how to use We-Vibe Sync 2:
Clean and charge your brand new toy. I know it's more exciting to get right into it, but proper upkeep is vital.
Understand how the We-Vibe Sync 2 works. Read through the instruction manual and practice hitting the button on the Unite to know where it is. It's much easier to learn the feel of it now before you're caught up in the moment
Before you begin, pair the We-Vibe Sync 2 with the remote control for easy use later on. It's as simple as pressing and holding two separate buttons.
Now, take the slimmer end of the We-Vibe Sync 2, and lubricate it with your favorite water-based lube. This will make it easier to insert.
Firmly gripping the thicker end in your hand, use the thicker end like a "handle" to maneuver the toy and slowly slide the slimmer end into the vagina. The lube and the Sync 2's thin diameter should allow this toy to slide in easily.
Gently release your grip on the Sync 2's thicker end, and it should comfortably rest on the exterior of the vulva.
Depending on where your pleasure spots are, you may need to do some gentle adjustments to get both ends to hit the right spots. Don't be afraid to insert it a bit deeper, shallower, or slide it to the left or right to get it into the best spot for you.
If the angle doesn't feel "right", remove the Sync 2 and firmly grasp both sides. The adjustable hinge joint at the base of the insertable end allows it to hinge tighter or looser with a bit of pressure!
If enjoying the We-Vibe Sync 2 with a partner, we recommend using water-based lubricant on the penis as well. This will help the penis glide alongside the vibrator during intercourse.
Finally, pop on the vibrations and enjoy yourself as the We Vibe Sync 2 provides hands-free, internal and external pleasure.
When you're done, simply slip it out of the body in the same manner that you slid it into the body.
