What are dildos?
Dildos/Dongs are cylindrical shaped objects designed for vaginal or anal penetration for the purpose of sexual stimulation. They're often used in the same manner as most vibrators (for penetration either anally or vaginally), however the main difference between vibrators and dildos is the fact that they don't vibrate.
Instead, dildos offer stimulation by providing a feeling of fullness when inserted or while thrusting in and out. They can also be used for g-spot stimulation, or inserted anally for stimulation of the prostate. For those that aren't keen on internal stimulation, dildos can be used to stimulate the vulva by sliding up and down between the labia (inner and outer lips).
As for the difference between dildos and dongs; some say dongs have balls and look like a 'real' penis and dildos don't. Others say it's the other way around. Unfortunately there aren't any hard and fast rules on this subject so I'm just going to go with saying that it's interchangeable depending on your point of view.
Like many other sex toys, dildos come in a wide variety of shapes, colours, sizes, materials and designs. For those that want more info, I wrote a beginners guide to dildos that will be very helpful.
