Std From Sharing Dildo?

Hi, my gay friend recently bought a dildo for himself and we're teenagers, so we're both really horny. We were curious if we both used the dildo together is there ANY risk of stds? Would it be better to sanitize it or put a condoms over it of we were both going to be using it? Thank you.

GracefromHHP is definitely spot on with the add on information. Dont throw away the instructions but rather keep them for reference so you get an idea how to properly clean the toys. Some will require sterilization through hot water and some with different processes of cleaning.

just check the cleaning directions on the toy. some of them boiling water would ruin them and make them more likely to harbor bacteria.

It would be best when sharing sex toys that a condom be placed over them to avoid transmission of bacteria from one person to another. Sanitizing the toys after use is also best too through sterilization by boiling water.
