Clitoral vs. G-Spot Vibrators: Which One Is Right for You?

Clitoral and G-spot vibrators do different jobs, and the right one depends on where you feel the most. Most people who own a vulva need clitoral stimulation to orgasm. The G-spot, an area on the front wall of the vagina, is a source of pleasure for many but not all.

This guide helps you decide which to buy first, and when a rabbit that does both is worth it.

The Short Answer

• If you are not sure, buy a clitoral toy. It is the safest first choice.
• If you already enjoy internal play, a G-spot vibrator adds targeted pressure.
• If you want both at once, a rabbit combines them.

Side by Side

Clitoral Vibrators

These stimulate the external part of the clitoris, which has thousands of nerve endings. Types include bullets, wands and suction toys.

• Suction or air-pulse toys use gentle waves with no direct contact. Many people find them intense but comfortable.
• Bullets are small and focused, and good for use during sex.
• Wands give broad, strong vibration. See wand vibrators.

G-Spot Vibrators

A G-spot vibrator has a curved tip that presses on the front wall of the vagina, two to three inches in. Firmer silicone gives more targeted pressure. Many people need to be aroused first for it to feel good.

If you have never found internal stimulation enjoyable, do not force it. Come back to it later. See G-spot vibrators.

Rabbit Vibrators

A rabbit has an internal shaft and an external arm that rests on the clitoris. Many people love the dual sensation, but fit matters: a flexible arm lines up with different bodies better than a rigid one. Browse rabbit vibrators.

How to Choose

1. Think about how you orgasm now. If it is external, start with a clitoral toy.
2. Decide on noise. Rumbly, low vibrations tend to be quieter than high, buzzy ones.
3. Choose body-safe silicone. It is non-porous and easy to clean.
4. Pick a charging style. Rechargeable toys save money and are less hassle.
5. Set a budget. You can get a great one for under $50, see sex toys under $50.

Using Them Together

Many people use a clitoral toy and a G-spot toy together, one external and one internal. A bullet held on the clitoris while using a G-spot vibrator works well. You can also use a clitoral toy during partnered sex. See how to use sex toys with a partner.

Care

Wash with warm water and mild soap or a toy cleaner. Use water-based lube with silicone toys. See our lube guide.
