Do You Use Sex Toys?

TresSugar — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 04:00:00 -0800

For some women, masturbation is not only recreation, it's an act that helps them learn what they like sexually, so that they can have more fun with a partner.

But even for women who feel comfortable masturbating, sex toys can seem intimidating or even "dirty."

And finally, there are the ladies who would tell you you'd have to pry their Rabbit Pearls or Hitachi Magic Wands out of their cold, dead hands. Where are you on this continuum - do you use sex toys?

Say What? Priest Says Don't Just Sit There and Masturbate!

"My concern is these students are in this developmental phase, and I don't think it's a good developmental practice to just tell somebody to just sit around and masturbate. I don't think that promotes good relationships."

- Father Joe Vetter, Duke University's Catholic Center director, reacting to news that a behavioral economist and student health workers at Duke University asked women on campus to discuss how they felt about sex toys. Of course, Father Vetter is also concerned about women sleeping around too much: "I'm concerned about promiscuity also," he said. Ummm, so what's a gal to do?

"[Y]eah, money's tight. If people are going to spend their dollars, they want to know it's a good product. People are staying home more, so we've directed more marketing efforts toward cheap date nights - for the price of a movie and dinner, buy a vibrator, stay home and have fun."

- Good Vibrations rep Jackie Strano, responding to a question about what the sex business is like during the recession. Good Vibrations is a popular woman-friendly adult sex toy store in San Francisco, CA.

I guess if you're in a pickle and can't find your vibrator, a cucumber will do. This ad suggests that they don't like that very much.

Earth Angel Hand Crank Vibrator: Crank It or Chuck It?

TresSugar — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:00:00 -0700

I'm all for going green to help save the environment, but I'm not sure the Earth Angel battery-free, hand crank vibrator will make a dent in the million ways the earth is going to pot. (I suppose that one less discarded battery that doesn't leak cadmium, lead or mercury into a landfill will add up eventually.)

The Earth Angel will vibrate for up to 30 minutes if you crank it for four, but I wonder if you'd still be in the mood having to work this hard to get it going. Also - did I mention it's close to 100 bucks?

iPhone as Vibrator - Love It or Leave It?

TresSugar — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 12:00:00 -0700

MyVibe is a free and easy-to-use application that spices up the iPhone's built-in vibrator mode. In other words, it turns you iPhone into a vibrator.

The makers of the app must think that clients will also use it for more innocent massage purposes, considering they instruct people to use it "at your desk, on your couch, on the kitchen table (OK, not so innocent), in the car when you're stuck in traffic, at the movies (really?), when your kids are watching TV - and not you, or anywhere else you want a little massage with some targeted stimulation."

There are 100 different vibrating speeds and it comes with an iPhone icon that "doesn't scream vibrator."

Are you ready to pick up your phone and dial into some pleasure?

WTF?!

Is this what I have to look forward to in middle age?

Free Sex Toys For Voting!

Stressed about this election year even though it's, uh, coming to a close? Why not truly put some closure on it by picking up a free Silver Bullet vibrator or, if you're a dude, a Maverick sleeve from Babeland in NYC and Seattle just for being a voter. (Turns out that all these freebies for voting may not be legal, but I'm sure they'll work around that.) Not from those cities? They'll give you a discount. Forget a free cup of Joe (oh, God, him again!), what we all really need is free sex toys. Viva America!
