    Great post. And hopefully people will THINK about what you said here before they head off to their local sex shops. One Christmas my former boyfriend got me a strap-on with a harness and a riding crop. We had never discussed the possibilities of me “bending over my boyfriend” so to speak. The riding crop was a good gift, but the strap on and harness seemed to come out of nowhere. Weird!

    Kitty - LOL, what a great example! I suppose he was using it as a “hint, hint” kind of thing, but I don’t think Christmas is the right time to bring that sort of thing up.

    I would’ve probably reacted just like you did. It ends up being an awkward “thanks, but no thanks” situation most of the time.

    At least he got the riding crop right! ;)

    Thanks for sharing!

Before you head out to your local sex shop, or begin browsing through online adult stores, stop and consider how your partner will react to this kind of gift. Ask yourself questions like:

Are they sexually open?

Are they very religious?

Are they easily embarrassed?

It takes a certain kind of person, as well as a certain kind of relationship, to make giving an adult-themed gift a positive experience for both the giver and the receiver. If you misjudge how your lover will react, or get them a gift that ends up offending them, your devilishly sexy surprise could ruin your Holiday altogether.

Below are some things to keep in mind while shopping for your partner that should help you to avoid any unpleasant present-opening situations!

You Know Your Lover Best - Think Before You Buy

Although this vibe or that whip might look like a great play thing to YOU, remember you are buying this gift for your lover’s enjoyment - not necessarily your own.

Don’t buy your husband a prostate anal massager if you know how “touchy” he is about that area of his body - regardless of how much you’d love to open him up to other sexual experiences.

Now is not the time to try to push your partner into trying something they are uncomfortable with.

The Holidays are supposed to be light-hearted fun, so give them a sexy gift you’re certain they will really appreciate based upon their current sexual likes and dislikes.

This isn’t to say you shouldn’t surprise them with a gift that will allow them to try something you know they’ve always wanted to try (because they’ve told you so in the past). Maybe she’s expressed an interest in spanking, so a beginner’s paddle might be just the thing!

Respect Their Religious and Moral Beliefs

Make sure an adult gift is something your partner would appreciate at this time of year.

There are lots of people who would NOT consider a dildo to be an appropriate present for Christmas, particularly if they are traditionally religious. Respect their morals, values, and beliefs around this time of year - the last thing you want to do is offend them and put them in a bad mood!

Instead, save your sexy gift ideas for another, more appropriate, occasion such as their birthday or Valentine’s Day. Non-religious holidays might be much better times to gift wrap that bondage set…

But if you’re sure your lover is the type of person who would enjoy a little adult spice mixed into their egg-nog, then follow these simple Do’s and Don’t’s when shopping for their little erotic surprise!

Ho! Ho! Ho! It’s Time to Play Santa!

So, you’ve decided to give your lover at least one special present that cannot be opened in front of anyone. Now what?

You might find yourself looking for something romantic, kinky, or even something that will seduce your lover. No matter what you are looking for it’s important to keep in mind that there are some things you will not want to give your other half this Christmas.

First, you need to assess the person you are buying this adult-themed present for.

Are they somewhat straight-laced? Are they adventurous, romantic, or downright wild?

It is important you keep this in mind because not all people are going to like all adult-themed gifts. Some people are going to like roleplay ideas while others might end up blushing at a common vibrator. Buy something based on the sexual appetite and adventure ranking the person already has.

Buying for Your Woman

If you want to avoid a disastrous event when you watch her unwrap her present this year you should consider your gift giving goals.

If you want to romance her, penis shaped candles and dicky soap on a rope is not going to be a good idea. While, these make good light hearted or gag gifts they do not fit in well in the romance department.

Similarly, if you are attempting to buy her lingerie, buy her something in a fabric that flatters her. If you are not sure what she likes to wear try looking in her closet. You should be able to get a general idea from what you find.

If you see an abundance of satin do not go out on a limb and buy lace. Chances are she has that much satin for a reason.

Go with what you see! Also, make absolutely sure you buy her the right sizes. Sneak into her panty drawer and check before you buy. Buying her something in the wrong size will make it virtually useless and she probably will not be too thrilled you thought she was bigger (or smaller) than she is.

When You Are Trying to Romance Her…

Avoid the Following:

  • Whips for Honestly Good Girls
  • Wrong Sized Garments
  • Dicky Soaps & Other Gag Gifts

Get Her These Instead:

Buying for Your Man

When it comes to sexy gifts for men there are only a few things you need to avoid. These are fairly common things.

For starters, avoid things you know he won’t like (obviously!). If he doesn’t own any thongs do not assume this one is going to be the one to convert him. Most men are very underwear loyal. If he wears boxers then find him a sexy pair, but do not assume you can convince him to wear something else.

If you are toy shopping, do not focus on things you can use on him.

While you might think these things are romantic they could actually be a turn-off. If he is not interested in anal toys, restraints, or whips then you will either end up buying him something that he can use on you or something like massage oil, which is nice but not something just for him.

Consider buying him a masturbatory toy such as a love doll, and inflatable doll, or a handheld device for private moments alone.

When You are Trying to Romance Him…

Avoid the Following:

  • Whips, Chains, or Restraints for Men that Don’t Want to be Tied Up
  • Anal Toys for Men that Have Never Spoken of Anal Sex
  • Thongs for Boxer Boys

Get Him These Instead:

Don’t Forget Toys for Couples!

If you can’t decide what to get your lover, why not buy something you can use together? This way you can pick out something you know you’d both enjoy. There are lots of options here - from massage sets to adult board games.

Additionally, a nice couple’s gift might be sexual furniture. You will find that no matter what you buy him or her, this furniture will definitely enhance any sexual experience so the different forms of furniture are worth the consideration.
