Sex toys aren’t just for women — but gay men, too
Sexual confidence: It’s what we do best. Whether you’re looking to expand your collection, or this is your first thought of a sex toy for you solo or for you and a partner, we’re here to deliver expert advice — and we don’t just cater to women or cishet couples, but gay men, too.
According to a recent survey, gay men or couples often use sex toys to enhance sexual encounters, and we love that. While intimacy can sometimes be a private subject, one in three people over 40 owns at least one sex toy.
At Bloomi, we believe everyone deserves pleasure. From our vibrators to our pleasure oil, our sex toys are designed for mankind (regardless of gender or orientation!) If you identify as a gay man, we’ve certainly got something for you.
Why Gay Couples Use Sex Toys
Sex toys are commonly used to enhance the quality of our sex life, alone or with a partner. Both men and women report that vibratory (a type of sex toy) provide positive sexual health outcomes, and are an important part of sexual repertoires.

Dildos 62.1%
Non-vibrating cock rings 51.9%
Vibrators 49.6%
Butt plugs 24.0%
Masturbation sleeves 27.9%
Anal beads or balls 19.3%
