Using condoms on dildoes is a good thing, for several reasons.
Depending on the type of plastic the dildo is made from, and the kind of lube you use, it's a good idea to use a condom.
Vinyl, silicone, and latex dildoes all have chemicals (plasticizers) to keep the material soft, and those chemicals do leach out. It's better to keep those chemicals out of your body. Latex has the lowest level.
(Side note: never use silicone-based lube on a silicone dildo, and never use oil-based lube on vinyl or latex toys. Water-soluble is safe for all of them.) |
