The Best Gay Sex Toys

No sex toy comes with a label saying it’s just for gay men – but some are definitely better suited for unlocking the deepest, most electrifying pleasures in male-on-male sessions. Whether you’re exploring solo or heating things up with a partner, the right toy can take your sessions from satisfying to absolutely earth-shattering.
At Ann Summers, we’re all about pushing boundaries and making sure no one misses out on the thrill. That’s why we’ve put together a guide to help you choose your next go-to plaything.

Bringing sex toys for gay men into the bedroom

Let’s be real, sex toys make everything better. Adding them into the mix can turn up the heat, deepen your pleasure and unlock sensations you didn’t even know you craved. But introducing toys takes a little finesse. Here’s how to do it right:

Talk dirty first

Surprises can be sexy, but suddenly whipping out a new toy might not get the reaction you’re hoping for. Gauge your partner’s interest first – tease them with the idea, drop a few hints and build anticipation.

Start small, think big

If you’re new to toys, don’t go straight for the biggest, most intense option. You wouldn’t jump into the deep end without learning to swim, would you? Ease into it with something simple, like a cock ring, and work your way up.

Lube is your best friend

Whether you’re playing solo or with a partner, lube is non-negotiable – especially for anal play. A few drops can turn a good experience into an unforgettable one, keeping things slick, comfortable and oh-so-satisfying.

Slow and steady wins the race

Whether you’re exploring new sensations or getting used to a new toy together, patience is key. Take your time, read each other’s reactions and let pleasure build naturally.

Toys aren’t just for spicing things up – they’re for pushing boundaries, finding new ways to enjoy each other and turning every session into a showstopper.

Our top 5 best gay sex toys & essentials

Looking for the best LGBTQ+ sex toys for gay men? We’ve rounded up five must-have toys guaranteed to leave you weak in the knees and begging for more.

1. Cock rings

Strap in and feel the squeeze. A cock ring grips you at the base, keeping you rock-solid while dialling up every pulse, every twitch, every intoxicating sensation. Add a little vibration, and suddenly, your partner’s feeling it too – deep, intense, and impossible to resist. New to the game? Our beginner’s guide to cock rings will get you up to speed.

2. Butt plugs

Top, bottom, switch, who cares? A butt plug is the kind of toy that makes everything feel better. Slip one in during foreplay to loosen up, keep it in during sex for an added stretch or just wear it while you go about your day, keeping that delicious pressure right where you want it. Ready to take the plunge? Our guide to butt plugs will show you how.

3. Prostate massagers

If you haven’t had a prostate orgasm yet, you’re missing out. A prostate massager zeroes in on that magic spot, coaxing out waves of pleasure that build and build until you’re completely undone. Some say it’s life-changing – we say it’s the kind of addiction you won’t want to quit. Learn all the tricks with our prostate stimulation guide.

4. Double ended dildos

Why should one person have all the fun? A double ended dildo means nobody has to wait their turn. Penetrate and be penetrated in perfect sync, pushing deeper, grinding harder and getting lost in the rhythm of each other’s moans.

5. Lube

Not technically a toy, but let’s be honest - without lube, you’re only getting half the fun. Whether you’re stretching new limits, sliding into something slick and tight, or making oral even tastier with a flavoured formula, lube takes you from “mmm” to “ohhh” in seconds.
