The Beginner’s Guide to Discreet Vibrators
If you’re concerned with others knowing how you get your vibe on, then discreet vibrators are your perfect match.
Read on to find out about the features to be on the lookout for when discretion is your priority, and product recommendations for your specific sex toy desires.
What Makes a Vibrator Discreet?
The most frequently sought-after vibrator discretion feature is hushed vibrations, but a discreet vibe may include one or any combination of the following:
Quiet Vibrations
As stated above, whisper-quiet decibels are an understandably popular vibrator feature. With muted noise, solo lovers are free to experience blissful buzzes even with someone in the very next room. If near-silent sounds sound great to you, check out our ultra-quiet vibrator selections featuring coveted toe-curlers like the Lovense Lush 3.
Inconspicuous Design
Your vibrator won’t raise suspicions if it doesn’t look like a vibrator! Some discreet sex toys model their aesthetic after everyday objects like the Lovehoney Oh! Kiss Me Lipstick Vibrator, which easily passes for a standard tube of lipstick. This style of discretion is ideal for those with nosy housemates or anyone who’s worried about their pleasure products being found.
Petite Size
Small-but-mighty vibrators like the Mantric are almost effortless to keep hidden. Stash a bullet vibrator in your bedside table, purse, or even jacket pockets; mini vibrators are a great tool for taking pleasure wherever you please.
Travel Lock or Removable Batteries
If you and your erotic whims are always on the go, you’ll want a battery-operated vibrator or one with a travel lock as your companion. High-tech travel locks require a special combination of button presses to turn them on. Battery-operated vibrators like the Lovehoney Power Play 7 Function Love Egg Vibrator are fool-proof for preventing unwanted rumbles; simply remove the batteries before going out and put them back in when you’re ready to party!
Why Would Someone Need a Discreet Vibrator?
People are drawn to discreet vibrators for an array of reasons, but the most common reason behind the purchasing decision is pleasure-seekers not wanting others to know when they’re enjoying a toy. A large share of this audience requires extra privacy due to their living situations, likely sharing their home with roommates or family members.
Then there are those looking to use their vibrator outside the home for public play. After all, the thrill comes from the risk of others potentially knowing what they’re up to and the feeling of being naughty. Actually getting caught engaging in exhibitionism is a whole other story.
Another motive for buying discreet vibrators is not wanting others to find the sex toy, even when it’s not in use. This need could be related to living situations, as mentioned above, or conversely, the desire to travel with a vibrator. Nobody wants TSA handling their most intimate belongings, right? And travel isn’t limited to big trips abroad, either. A discreet vibe that fits easily within purses or briefcases comes in clutch when you want to bring some buzzy fun to a lover’s place.
Discreet vibrators are beneficial for more than just overtly practical reasons but for personal preferences, too. For instance, some find loud vibrations distracting, making it more difficult for them to reach their peak. Discreetly quiet vibes solve this woe in a pinch!
