I never knew I liked swirls on my insertables till I found this! Dots are just a bit painful, and the bulbous end is nice for G spot stimulation, but the swirls / ridges on the slimmer end are great during thrusting. So I love how both ends can be used during different stages of play. It's probably a wee too thick for an absolute beginner, but defintely something I'd recommend to someone looking to expand their collection.
