How to Clean Gay Sex Toys

Gay sex toys can be a great addition to our sexual bag of tricks.  Expandable butt plugs is one of the great example of gay sex toys. They can be keys to great sexual experiences for gay and heterosexual men.  These toys despite the gay label attached to them are sex toys meant for the use of men after all.

While gay sex toys can indeed bring your sexual experiences to the next level,  steps have to be taken such as cleaning the toy and keeping it clean, that have to be done so that the experience with sex toys remains a pleasurable one and not one which can adversely affect our health.

Sex toys, by the nature of their use are exposed to environments rich in biological organisms, not all of which are benign.  An unclean sex toy is not only disgusting, but it can become a hot bed and a breeding ground for dangerous microorganisms which can cause embarrassing and serious health problems.  Moreover, if you share your toy with your partner, you risk transmitting these microorganisms to him or her. Here are some tips on how to clean your sex toy.

The way one cleans a sex toy depends on the material it is made of.  Some materials tolerate certain cleaning agents better than others.  This information is usually found on the box or packaging that came with your sex toy.  If it is no longer possible to get this information, most sex toys can be cleaned with warm water and antibacterial hand soap.

There are gay sex toys which vibrate like electric vibrators and require electricity or batteries to work.  Before cleaning them, make sure you take out the batteries or unplug the toy from the wall socket.  Moreover, avoid getting the parts of the toy which contain the battery compartment or motor wet.  One should never soak a battery operated toy in water or any other cleaning agent as this will damage its electrical circuits or can cause an electrical short when turning the toy on.

Sex toys made of plastic or glass can be boiled briefly to sterilize them and then wiped down with alcohol for disinfection.  Rubber or jelly toys or simply jelly vibes on the other hand should be cleaned with warm water and antibacterial soap.

Make sure your toys are thoroughly dry before putting them away.  Storing a damp sex toy in your closet or some other dark place could encourage the growth fungus which could cause irritation in very inconvenient places.
