Some of the other items to use are dongs,
strap-ons, harnesses, love dolls, lubes,
lotions, nipple rings & clamps, leather,
and latex.  Of course a lot of ordinary
items can be used for adult play.  Such
as hairbrushes, vegetables, and even a
coke bottle.

The most popular items seem to have a
phallic shape.  This is due to sex being
linked to intercourse only.  However
since the wide spread use of the VCR
for viewing adult movies (both amateur
and professional), women have begun
expressing their interest in toys that
are not just another example of the
same old dick.

Most people would never admit to using
any type of artificial stimulation and
would even say that these items do not
do anything for them.  This might be
true in some instances; however for most
people who express this opinion this is
not true.  More likely it is due to 
their puritanical ideals and that they
have not explored this realm of their
sexuality.
