A Senior’s Guide to Sex Shops

Embarking on a journey into a sex store as a senior might feel like stepping into a new world, one that seems to cater to the young and the bold. At Starship, we believe sexual pleasure should be ageless. You deserve pleasure at every stage of life. 

 

Why Step Into a Sex Store?

It’s a fact that interest in sex doesn't go away with age. Actually, many people reach their sexual peak later in life! When you’re a bit older, you have the privilege of a lifetime of experience, which can make your senior years a perfect time to explore your sexuality to the fullest.

Whether you're single, in a relationship, or exploring new connections, a sex store such as Starship offers the products and knowledge to enhance intimate pleasure.

 

Approaching the Experience with an Open Mind

 

Walking into a sex store for the first time can be overwhelming, since there are so many products and possibilities. Pause, take a breath, and keep an open mind. Starship Enterprises has a plethora of products for everyone. Once you find your niche, you’ll walk away with a goodie bag full of new possibilities and sexy pleasures. 

 

Research and Reconnaissance

 

Before you go, do some research to put yourself at ease. Check out our website so you can browse products in the comfort of your own space. You can look for items that pique your interest or address specific needs (or wants) you have in the bedroom!

Whether you want to enhance physical comfort, explore new sensations, or reignite passion, we have what you crave. If you’re unsure about anything while you shop, Starship employees are eager to help and will gladly answer any questions.

 

Communication is Key

 

If you're in a relationship, talk about your trip with your lover beforehand. This can be an awesome opportunity to share fantasies, explore curiosities together, and ensure that both partners feel comfortable and excited about trying new things. You might even be able to turn your trip into a fun date night! Remember, effective communication can enhance intimacy and pleasure for both parties. 

 

Discretion and Privacy

 

Online shopping is a great way to explore in the privacy of your own home. Starship’s website offers new customers 10% off your first order with code “WELCOME”. We have free shipping on all orders over $50. Extra bonus: all orders over $50 also get a free sexual health and wellness gift. If you don’t want to wait on shipping, you can place your order online and pick it up in-store at one of our many locations across Georgia. 

 

Not Just Toys!
 

Shopping in a sex shop isn't only about toys! Starship stores offer games, lubricants, arousal gels, pleasure kits, lingerie, toy cleaners, many mood enhancers, and much more! These can enrich your understanding of sexuality, assist in exploring desires, and help you to maintain a healthy and satisfying sex life.

 

Embrace Your Age

 

Your age is an asset, not a liability. With age comes wisdom, and a clearer sense of what you enjoy and what you're curious about. Use this to your advantage. Be confident in your desires and open to exploring new facets of your sexuality.

 

Start Simple

 

If the variety of products feels overwhelming, start simple. Basic items like Starship’s lubricants (which can be particularly helpful for addressing issues of vaginal dryness or discomfort), massage oils, or simple vibrators can be a good way to ease into the exploration of sex toys.

The Power of Playfulness

Try to look at sex toys with a sense of playfulness. Sex, at its heart, is a form of play, an exploration of pleasure and connection. It should be fun! Whether you're exploring solo or with a partner, keeping a light-hearted, curious approach can enhance the experience and make it more enjoyable.

 

Get Into Position
 

If you need a little help getting and staying in different positions, there are amazing products for that. Experience unparalleled versatility and support from every angle with the Pivot Positioner. Soft, flexible and rigorously tested, the high-density foam core helps reduce fatigue and increase stamina. The Doggy Style Strap offers better leverage for the person on top. The side straps eliminate the need to hold “love handles” and allow for deeper penetration!

 

Don’t Forget Protection

Condoms are vital for anyone who is having penetrative sex. Even though you might have passed the days of pregnancy scares, everyone is at risk for STIs, or sexually transmitted infections. In fact, some studies have shown that STIs are on the rise in seniors! Wrap it up and have the peace of mind that everyone is much safer. 

 

Pleasure Products for Seniors with Penises
 

One thing that can be helpful for seniors with penises is a prolonging serum. Starship’s Intimate Care All Night Prolonging Serum is amazing for keeping the good times going! To use, apply to the head and shaft 5-15 minutes before intercourse.

 

Starship Hercules Chubbies cock rings are great extra support when you need it! These super stretchy cock rings slow blood flow out of an erect penis and can help make erections harder and longer-lasting.

 

Prostate toys are wonderful because they can give penis owners a prostate orgasm. Starship’s Hercules Triple Prostate Probe is a great place to start! You can even have a P-Spot orgasm if your penis can’t get or stay hard.

 

Pleasure Products for Seniors with Vaginas
 

Kegel exercises and accessories are great for everyone with a vagina. Doing kegels can help strengthen your pelvic floor muscles which makes sex more pleasurable. The Starship Libra Kegel Trio set is easy to use and each Kegel increases in weight. Start with the lightest and work your way up to the heaviest the more you practice! With just 5 minutes a day you can be on your way to stronger pelvic muscles. 

 

Starship's Clitoral Arousal Serum works by increasing blood flow to the clitoris and adding lubrication, helping you get and stay hot and bothered! 

simply® Timeless lube is uniquely formulated to address the specific needs of individuals during the perimenopausal and menopausal stages and beyond. Each formula contains ingredients that can help alleviate dryness and promote a more comfortable and satisfying intimate experience. Each lube contains supportive ingredients like aloe, olive leaf extract, squalane, and Vitamin E.

 

Hello Sexy’s Bling Bling Mini Wand is a great vibe because it’s compact but still has 10 pulsation patterns ranging in intensities. Wands are a delight to have in your toy box, because they can double as a personal massager for other areas too!

Many people already know about penis pumps, but have you ever heard of pussy pumps? When you use the Bloom Intimate Body Pump you simply place the soft suction cup over your lips, then activate suction by pulling on the easy-grip trigger, the powerful suction action holds the cup in place, creating an air-tight vacuum against your body. This toy will help you get you aroused by increasing blood flow and sensitivity to your vulva. 

 

Toy Cleaners - Sex Toys’ Best Friend
 

 

If you’re adding toys to your sex life, you need a toy cleaner! A fan favorite is Wicked Sensual Care’s Foam & Fresh toy cleaner. You should always clean your toys before and after each use to remove infection-causing bacteria and even help prevent the spread of STIs.

Visiting a sex store as a senior can be a doorway to enhanced pleasure, deeper intimacy, and personal growth. It's a testament to the enduring nature of human sexuality and a reminder that exploration and enjoyment don't have an expiration date. So step into the aisles of desire with confidence—you might just discover something wonderfully new about yourself.
