Today's vibrator is fast becoming a high-tech sex aid that can help women (and men) achieve a high quality orgasm when a partner is not available, or when the woman feels she needs such physio-psychological sensations. The use of vibrators and their purpose is nothing new, only our approach to them.
History of Sex Toys
The use of dildos was widespread in ancient societies. In Egypt, Greece, China and India, and Rome, dildos were used, and their use was often advised by physicians. The word hysteria (Greek for a state caused by disuse or misuse of a woman's hyster or uterus), described a condition that was, till very recently, thought to cause a woman a whole spectrum of medically unwanted symptoms.
The Chinese were very productive in their use of ceramic dildos, and the Japanese invented balls that were inserted into the vagina. The Greeks and Romans had large dildos made from a variety of materials, and often specialized in large and unrealistic sizes. The Egyptians has very elaborate stone and metal dildos with a creative shape and size. All in all, the precursor to the modern day vibrator has a long and colorful history.
Today's Vibrator
With the invention of the electric motor for the household, after the toaster, the vacuum cleaner, the vibrator soon made its appearance in the Sear's Catalog in 1913. However, the vibrator's appearance in blue films in the 1920 got it out of the mainstream marketing. Today you can buy a variety of vibrators in any shape and size, in mainstream stores almost anywhere in the civilized world.
There are single speed, multi-speeds, mains and battery operated one thing to look for. 80 cycles per second! Research has shown that this vibration speed is the one that quickly brings its user to orgasm. Battery powered 80 cycle per second vibrators exist, but you must be careful to use high quality batteries and replace them often.
You can buy vibrators in soft rubber, and ones that twist as well as vibrate. You can find small ones that are meant only for clitoral stimulation, and others that have special attachments that are good for vaginal as well as anal penetration. Decide what you wish, and you will find vibrators to fill your needs.
There are also variations of the Japanese balls that can be inserted in the vagina, and left there to vibrate while the woman is busy at work, or watching TV, or other creative uses.
Why a Vibrator
Some research suggests that many woman have anxiety during sex with a partner that may prevent their natural orgasm. Such anxiety is not present with the private, single use of a vibrator. Also, there are many women without partners (from time to time), and a vibrator can provide some temporary relief from sexual frustration.
Vibrators can be used also during sexual activity with a partner, and can enhance the sexual experience. During an appropriate moment, the partner can apply a vibrator to various erogenous zones. This activity will require some pleasurable exploration by both partners.
Where to Use the Vibrator
The clitoral area is a natural area to use it. Use of lubricants during stimulation is advised as well. A vibrator inserted inside the vagina and pressed against the g-spot area is also another good place to try. Couples can experiment on the best locations and pressure used. The undulating vibrator and twisters are also being found useful as sex aids.
Men like it too
The woman can also pleasure the man using her vibrator. With some lubrication, the woman can apply the vibrator to the man's penis at its base, near the testicles, or even inside the anus to create stimulation of the prostate. Care must be taken and use of lubricants a must. |
