7 Hands-Free Grinding Vibrators That Do All the Work for You (Hi, Effortless Orgasms)
Once upon a time, anyone who liked some bump n' grind action relied on things like pillows and pool jets to get their rocks off in a pinch. Now? There are grinding vibrators galore, as well as other types of vibrators, guaranteed to give you the most laid back (and maybe a little bit nostalgic) you can get. They're horny and hands-free when you want them to be—what more could you want?
Now, if you didn't get turned on by (consensually) rubbing up against your overly-hormone'd classmates at your middle school dance, you might be thinking, "What's so great about grinding?" Good question. Marla Renee Stewart, MA, sexpert for Lovers sexual wellness brand and retailer, explains that for vulva owners, particularly, grinding allows you to have more control over your body and subsequently, how you achieve orgasm.
"Grinding toys can be used for all people, as they can help folks get to the deeper sides of their internal genitalia," Stewart says. "Grinding toys can be especially helpful for folks who are intersex that have nuances in their external or internal genitalia, so when [I say] it's for all people, I really do mean that."
Now, they're not for everyone—Stewart says they're more advantageous for folks with front-facing vulvas, since it's easier to hump things. But, they do allow you to get creative and—since many are designed to be hands-free—are more inclusive than other wands, dildos, and other manual toys.
Some ideas? "Try a grinder on yourself!" Stewart says. She recommends the Ruby Glow Grinder ($59) from Lovers, which can be thrusted upon in between your legs on top of a pillow, underneath you, or laying on your side. "It helps with incredible sensations and the motors really take it up a notch!" Stewart explains.
Or, add some motion to the ocean when you're playing with a partner. "A grinding toy is a toy that can be used for lovers to put between their bodies' genitals and move up against one another. Toys add to the sensations of genital-to-genital contact," says Stewart. "If the lovers are fluid-bonded and are both vulva owners, the sensation of rubbing wet genitals can be intensely erotic."
Whether you want to thrust, bump, grind, or hump, these grinding vibes will show you a *very* good time. Giddy up!
