This week we have a g-spot toy from Good Vibrations.

Galaxy G Acrylic G-Spot Dildo

+ Size: 9 ½” x 1 3/8″ (24.13cm x 3.49cm)
+ Material: Acrylic
+ Price: $22.

Description: Discover the galactic greatness of the Galaxy G-spot stimulator. Designed for solo or partner play, either end can be used to stroke the G-spot with varying degrees of pressure. Made of easy-to-clean acrylic, the Galaxy includes pleasure balls for out-of-this-world sensation.

Review: If you want a toy that simulates your G-spot in a very particular way and costs about $20 while doing it, then the Galaxy G is probably for you. As it turns out, it wasn’t for me, so let’s talk about that.

Good Vibrations has the following to say about the G-spot:

“The G-spot is located just inside the vagina on the front wall of the vaginal barrel (about one to two inches inside, toward the bellybutton). To find the G-spot, apply a water-based lube to your fingers and insert them, making a “come hither” motion with your fingers. The G-spot may be easier to find when a woman is aroused by sex toys, foreplay, or a steamy adult movie because then it swells and becomes firm to the touch. Although every woman has a G-spot, not all women respond the same way to G-spot stimulation. Women who enjoy having their G-spot stimulated say that their orgasms can be “mind-blowing,” and some even ejaculate a prostatic-like fluid upon orgasm. Some women may find that this type of stimulation produces a feeling of discomfort, and some women say that G-spot stimulation feels no different than stimulation of other parts of the vaginal barrel.”

Additionally, [anonymous] has the following to say about the G-spot:

Q. Are g-spot orgasms real? i think i’m unable to cum just with vaginal stimulation, am i seriously missing something?

A. They are real, yes. but you’re not ‘seriously missing’ anything. worrying about g-spot orgasms is like me losing sleep over whether or not a volvo has a tight turning radius. I don’t have a volvo. I have a nissan.

Additionally, I’m pretty sure this is the best metaphor I’ve ever come up with.

So, that’s what we’re working with.

If, like me, you have not had a lot of receiving penetrative sex of the strap-on- and/or penis-based variety, the toy might hurt like a motherfucker, and you will wish your girlfriend would stop trying to help you write anonymous online sex toy reviews and would instead just fuck you the usual way.

While the description says it’s “for solo or partner play,” I suspect that it’s better alone for two reasons: first, it is harder to reach your G-spot with your own fingers than it is to reach it with someone else’s, and second, if you attempt to use it with a partner who likes combined penetration and clit action, and you try to deliver said clit action with your tongue, you wind up with the toy (which, to hit Reviewer 2’s G-spot, was only about half-way inside) punching you in the throat every time you do something right.

Reviewer 2: If you have had a lot of penetrative sex, then it feels good in the way that having something inside you when you’re aroused feels good, but a more classically shaped dildo might have felt better.

In solo play, I came away unconvinced that this toy was for me, in that I have had more success giving myself a G-spot orgasm with my own fingers. Further, while the toy feels okay going in, the bulbs make it difficult to pull OUT – your muscles up there naturally clench, and there might come a brief time when you think, “Oh shit! Is this thing gonna come out? But I used lots of lube! Oh. Okay, ow.” Overall, the solo experience might leave you wondering whether you’ve done something wrong, as what was shaping up to be some fun personal time does a swan dive of death while you attempt to stimulate your G-spot with something that is infinitely less sensitive than your fingers and which does not provide team assistance by vibrating. Then you might, after an initial struggle, pull the thing out and fuck yourself the usual way, with a big sigh of relief.
