Vibrators have a strange history, to say the least. Originally invented in 1869 (steam powered I might add) they were patented as a labor saving device to relieve "female disorders".

So you might might ask, "what female disorders?" Well in those days it was called female hysteria and was quite a common female complaint. You see medical experts from the time of Hippocrates up to the twentieth century believed that hysteria expressed the womb's revolt against sexual deprivation. A woman's display of mental or emotional distress, the theory went, was a clear indication of her need for sexual release. According to historical records, genital massage was the forerunner of the vibrator and a standard treatment for hysteria, with the objective being to induce "hysterical paroxysm" (better known today as orgasm) in the patient.

As you may imagine, inducing "hysterical paroxysm" in female patients was a complicated and time consuming task without the aid of the vibrator. Turn-of-the-century physicians were delighted with the efficiency, convenience, and reliability of portable vibrators which enabled them to help more women and create a certain clientele. So in those days a woman complaining of hysteria literally went to her doctor for sexual release! Luckily those days are gone and now every woman can enjoy a healthy sexual life without seeing her local MD!

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Today's vibrators have come a long way from the days of your mother's "personal massager" (yes she probably had one). Today's synthetic plastics and micro technology have helped create some of the most realistic and "custom designed" vibrators ever seen. From "thrusting" to "pulsating", light up to ejaculating the market has something for each and every woman alive today!

Using Vibrators Alone or Together

There is no reason for any woman or couple today to ignore the possibilities of using vibrators in their sex life. Vibrators are a great way to "electrify" (pardon the pun) your foreplay and may help those ladies who need extra help achieving orgasm during sex. Guys too may enjoy the use of a vibrator on their penis or maybe inserted into the anus. Personally the sight of my lover enjoying herself with a great vibrator makes me crazy!
