When you’re a man, there are times when your mind is so focused on sex that everything brings erotic play to mind. When in such a state of mind, it may seem that even the most mundane items in the home are potential sex toys. Surprisingly, that perception is not so far from wrong. As long as he keeps good penis care in mind, an imaginative man may find his home really is filled with sex toys that can add to his sexual enjoyment.

How can this be? Let’s just take a look at a few items likely to be in a guy’s home and see if they can become sex toys for him to use.

- A donut. This one takes very little imagination. It’s soft and squishy, so it’s not going to cause damage, and the opening in the middle can of course fulfill much the same function as a woman’s vagina or a man’s own fist. Sure, the sugar and glazing may make the penis a bit sticky, but it might well be worth that small inconvenience. Who ever thought a tasty treat could be great for penis health?

- String or ribbon. One of the most popular male sex toys is the cock ring, a ring made of leather, metal, cloth or plastic that encircles the base of the penis (or in some cases, the base of the penis and the balls). The tightness of the ring often helps sustain an erection or increase the stiffness of same. But a man can get the same effect by using a piece of string or ribbon. As with a real cock ring, it’s important not to make it too tight or to wear it for an extended period of time; otherwise, serious penis health issues could ensue.

- A melon. A watermelon, cantaloupe or other large-sized melon can make for a thrilling if messily juicy sex toy. All that is needed is to carve a hole in the gourd large enough to accommodate a man’s erect penis, after which the melon is all set to be entered. And here’s a tip: melons can be excellent for a man to use when he wants to try out a new position. The downside, of course, is that the juice makes this very messy - but it’s also an unforgettable experience.

- Sponge bottle joy. Cut the top of a plastic soda bottle. Wrap some duct tape around the top edges, so any jagged edges are smoothed over. Place two sponges in the bottle. Stick the penis between the two sponges and move the bottle back and forth over the erect penis shaft.

- A feather duster. Buy a new feather duster. (One which has been used will have too much dirt and dust to make it hygienic.) Simply use this to stimulate the erect penis, running it up and down the shaft and paying special attention to the glans. The feathery touch will provide an especially erotic feel that most men find irresistible.

There are dozens of other household objects that can be made into or used as sex toys, from rubber dishwashing gloves to paper towel tubes to an electric toothbrush. When a man is aroused enough, almost anything can become an aid.

Whether a man creates sex toys in his home, purchases them ready-made or dispenses with them altogether, he still needs to regularly apply a first class penis health crème( health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) to his favorite organ to keep it healthy. Since many men get carried away with their sex toys and treat their members roughly, it’s wise to select a crème with soothing moisturizing agents like Shea butter and vitamin E. Rough (if fun) handling can also diminish penis sensitivity, so a crème with neuroprotective acetyl L carnitine is advised. The ingredient helps protect against peripheral nerve damage from aggressive or overenthusiastic stroking.
