Sex toys are great

(Yes, another sex post. Get your pizza delivery man and pornstache jokes ready.)

I ran across this article on MSNBC. The thrust (hee, hee) of the article is men's feelings of inadequacy when confronted with dildos and vibrators -

Walking around the display halls, I realized that it is impossible for a man to feel good about himself when confronted with a few thousand wall-mounted penis replicas...

Combine the explosion of sex toy mania that has de-stigmatized novelties (putting electrical accoutrements in the hands of millions of women) and research showing that only 30 percent of ladies reach orgasm with intercourse alone, and it’s no wonder some men may find themselves battling vibrator envy.

Joy Davidson, a sex therapist, author and host of the DVD series “Couples Guide to Sexual Pleasure,” says that clients and the merely curious have asked her hundreds of times about the issue of men becoming, shall we say, a bit jealous of their wives’ or girlfriends’ mechanical helpers.


Ok, I hate to be insensitive, but if you're feeling jealous of your wife/girlfriend's vibrator, you're an idiot. If she's using the vibrator in lieu of sex, you've got bigger problems than vibrator-envy.

Look, women aren't like men. The more they use vibrators, the more you're going to get laid. It's not an either/or proposition. With women (in my experience) it's a snowball effect. Sex toys are only going to help you. And, as the article does mention further down, these toys aren't necessarily solitary devices. Women who are comfortable enough to use these things are probably more likely to be comfortable with other sexual activities.

So if you're a man (or woman) with vibrator-envy, stop being ridiculous, and stock up in rechargeable batteries.

I can't imagine being threatened by a vibrator. Like you say, if the vibrator is replacing the guy, the relationship has some serious problems.

"Sex Talk With Dr. Chris" - The series that's blowing the blogosphere away! Seriously, though, interesting post. Something to think about.

I can't imagine being threatened by a vibrator.

I can imagine it, but I think it'd be pretty easy to disarm the woman.

We're going to have to have a discussion about the direction of this blog.

Anyway, anyone who feels inadequate next to a vibrator was probably feeling inadequate to begin with.

Seriously, that was terrible.

Off topic, but does this blog crash firefox for anyone else? I have to open it in an IE tab or else it hangs the browser every time. No idea what's doing it.

...says Chemist as he tries desperately, and in vain, to change the subject...

Chris, you still haven't explained what the women were doing with the snowballs...

Yes! On one of my computers, but not on the others. I thought it was maybe a java problem. If I figure it out, I'll let you know. I need to check all my firefox versions.

:). Not what I was going for, but I won't go into the sexual meaning of "snowballing". You can google that one :)

You sure about that?

John Howard said...

Yes, it does on both my computers, and I think it's because of a recent Java update. I've been meaning to research it, but I'm kinda lazy.

Used to on my old machine, but not on my new one.

You sure about that?

Pretty sure, yeah. ;-)

I took the countdown timer off, until I can figure out what's wrong with it.

Angelos said...

It doesn't crash my Mac Firefox 2, but but it does hang it for 10-15 seconds.

Back on topic, agreed on all counts. Sex toys are just another excellent addition to the bedroom activities.

Not sure where to post this but I wanted to ask if anyone has heard of National Clicks?

Can someone help me find it?

Overheard some co-workers talking about it all week but didn't have time to ask so I thought I would post it here to see if someone could help me out.
