You Don’t Need to Be an Exhibitionist to Enjoy These Vibrating Panties

If you're someone who enjoys your sex paired with a little bit of (fun) risk, then vibrating panties should absolutely be your next buy. But what is vibrating underwear? What's the appeal of wearing these remote-control panties? And how do you use vibrating underwear? Let's start with the basics.

Also known as vibrating panties, vibrating underwear is underwear that, you guessed it, vibrates. Typically, there's a small, bullet-sized vibrator that attaches to the inside of the underwear, and it can be controlled via bluetooth or a wireless remote. Most people use the toy with their partner, by allowing them to control the sensations themselves, but it can also be used for solo masturbation play, as well.

"Whether you choose to stay in control or leave your pleasure in a partner's hands, vibrating underwear is a fun and exciting addition to sex toy beginners and experts alike," a spokesperson from feminist porn site Bellesa tells POPSUGAR. "Just be sure that the vibrator inside the panties is made from body-safe, non-porous materials like silicone or ABS plastic."

Another thing to keep in mind is, if your partner is in control, you should make sure to discuss boundaries as for when it isn't appropriate to turn on the vibrator. Establishing a safe word like "pineapple" or "red" before play begins is important so that your partner knows when to immediately halt play if you're uncomfortable or something doesn't feel right.

It's also necessary to note that you should be careful about where you wear your vibrating panties. If exhibitionism is your thing, exploring your sexual kinks and fantasies is always recommended. But keep in mind strangers in public can't consent to being a part of your sexual fantasies, so be mindful about where you're wearing them and who it will impact.

Once you've established all the logistics of how, when, and where you're going to wear your remote-control panties, it's time to buy them — and choosing the actual vibrating underwear can be the hardest part. To make things easier, here's a list of some to help get you started.
