Sex 411: Vibrators


Did you know that, according to the Museum of Sex, the vibrator was originally used as a medicinal treatment for female "hysteria" during the 19th century. The vibrator-induced orgasms helped doctors dissipate hysteria's anxiety-related symptoms.

Wow...
I always had a hunch that vibrators helped with anxiety. After a night with mine, I'm always more relaxed the next day. Funny.
Apparently, this is a picture of the worlds first vibrator. Looks a bit like a hair dryer to me.

Heh. Those wacky 19th century medics. I'd heard about this before, and I remember just shaking my head. Not only do they cause the women to go insane (denying sexual pleasure, expression, and self discovery), but after you've flipped out, your given an orgasm as means of a sedative. Sucketh greatly.

I can believe that, I really can, cause for both women and men there's nothing that compares to an orgasm. When I fist saw the image I thoght it was a hair dryer myself.

Sidebar: That movie Unfaithful was one of the best movies I've seen. Diane Lane had me believing she cheats in real life, it was so good. That movie right there is probably the one movie where I actually rooted for the cheaters, especially when she let dude sex her up in the bathroom scene. Great, great movie.

orgasms stop women from being crazy. I mean everyone knows it, but these cats had to put it in medical books lol. Thats like saying new shoes or undeserved attention prevents hysteria and depression in women.
