My wife and I have several vibrators and she prefers external ones on her clit. We have never had a wand and I haven’t thought of purchasing one until recently.
What is the difference between using a vibrator and a wand on the pussy? Is it simply the
strength of the vibration? My wife only takes her vibrators to about mid level power.
In my opinion, there are lots of vibrators that call themselves “wands” that look like a wand, but lack the other qualities a wand should have. If you end up buying one of those, there won’t be much difference between them and other vibrators.
A wand should:
Be powerful - wands should be the most powerful toys when compared to other vibrators of equal quality. If your wife doesn’t use the top power settings on existing toys, she is unlikely to use the top settings on a wand.
Have low frequency (rumbly) vibrations - wands were designed as a deep tissue massager which requires the vibration to penetrate deeper. Wands should therefore stimulate not just the external part of the clitoris but the internal parts and other internal pleasure areas. Most people like this, but not everyone so think about the toys your wife prefers or dislikes, if she likes the lower frequency ones, a wand might be worth trying
Larger surface area - the larger the surface area, the more the vibration spreads. Some people like this, some people prefer pinpoint stimulation. Again, think about what toys your wife prefers, if she is reaching for bullets or smaller toys and they need to be on the exact right spot, a wand possibly won’t work for her. If she likes larger surface area toys, it probably will.
A couple of non pleasure rated points:
Wands are normally bigger and often heavier than other toys. Not always a problem (can be helpful if you want to use it hands free) but may be hard to hold between you in certain penetrative sex positions, or could just be annoyingly heavy.
Wands are generally louder than most toys so if noise is a distraction (or an issue if you need to be quiet), wands aren’t ideal.
Hopefully that helps a bit. I suggest considering all the factors together because sometimes one factor can be more important and can almost compensate for other factors, such as might stay on lower settings but the vibration frequency and how it spreads out can make it still feel amazing.
Yes this did help a lot. I’ve speculated that one of the attractions to wand is the low frequency vibrations. Her vibrators are high frequency which most smaller vibrators are.
I think it is worth trying, never know what you like until you try it.
