can you say “vibrator?”
What do you when your vibrator has a loose connection (and cuts out at the most inopportune times!), and, because you have recently moved to a new town, you don’t know where the nearest sex shop is?
You ask your Facebook friends for help of course! Which is what I did with this post:
I got a few helpful answers including “try amazon,” which admittedly has an interesting selection of “Wand Massagers,” described as “handheld cordless and powerful, best rated for travel gift, and “Perfect for Muscle Aches and Personal Sports Recovery.”
Personal sports recovery? Seriously? Why not just call a vibrator a vibrator?
Ordering from Amazon would be fast, easy and convenient. But the problem is I have specific requirements with respect to the speed, intensity and quality of my vibrator’s vibration. I have to check it in my hand to know if the vibration is “just right.” Anything other than “just right” produces #EPIC #ORGASMIC #FAIL 🙁
I’ve had to toss several expensive vibes because they didn’t “do the trick” as it were. So that’s why I buy a version of the same model (see main pic at the top of this post) I first bought when I worked in a sex shop 40 years ago. That said, with this particular type, the same loose connection issue ALWAYS eventually rears its ugly head! I guess I just wear them out 😛
When I made this comment on the FB post, people were shocked. “TMI!” one friend said, though perhaps it was in jest. And only one person – ONE – had any nearby shop suggestions to make.
C’mon. Isn’t it about time female sexuality came out of the closet? Shouldn’t we be able to say “vibrator” in public? Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin think so. Take a look at this hilarious clip of them on Ellen discussing one of the more risque plot lines on their Netlfix hit “Grace & Frankie.”
