Opt for sex-positive stores

As the saying goes "not all kinfolk are kinfolk," and the same applies to sex toy retailers. Retailers such as Lovehoney and Satisfyer are great for people of all identities.

Pick your pleasure style

For some, certain types of pleasure can be off-putting or triggering. It's important to identify what your boundaries are before shopping, to offer yourself security. For example, if penetration is off the table, you can search for "non-penetrative toys." Of course, you may walk through a virtual sex store, see a massive butt plug and think "f-ck no," and that's cool too. Just be honest about what feels great, and what you'd prefer to skip.
