Here’s my mom/vibrator story: Every christmas as a kid she would put something strange at the bottom of my sister’s and my stockings. One year it was some weird exotic fruit, one year it was slime. My little sister refuses to grow up and at 26 still demands her stocking. That means I get one by default. A couple of years ago we reach in there and pull out matching ‘love bug’ vibrators. In front of Mom, Dad and various grandparents. I’ve managed to mostly repress the next 10 minutes or so. I might have been in a coma. My current favorite has to be the big ol’ Hitachi. Mostly because it terrified my ex, but that’s a whole other story. ---

I just have to say… this is soooo not cool. I feel tortured and taunted. I have been following this since it started. Reading and feeling the need… being jealous of machines and of women. I want a machine that will do this _L_… hell… for that matter I want multiple orgasms! _L_ My exgf/roomie and I used to be into those things… toys… gahhh… I love toys… now I don’t get to use them and she does. I see the Adam and Eve cataloge come in and I dont even open it for the porno adds!! I miss a willing woman so bad… I used to love to tease and give with toys ☹ …and DAMN… I think my tounges losing tone too! 😃 Something has to change!! _L_ I’m afraid I’m gonna forget! ---

I didn’t think I’d contribute to this thread, but a friend just sent me this link, and it fits all to well.

Diane, by all means, take a do over. In fact, you have my permission to write as many erotic stories as you like in this or any other thread. You can even e-mail me if you would like for me to read them over to make sure they are completely the highest quality before you submit them. 😉 Jeffery ---

MMMMM…vibrators. I don’t have one. But I want one. Unfortunately my mom has the habit of going through all my drawers and I don’t think she would be happy to find one of those. Although the condoms are pretty incriminating too. I may be getting one (vibrator, that is) for my birthday. Especially since my boyfriend is halfway across the world for the next two months. And I must agree with y’all who said that nothing is better than a warm body. _sigh_ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/bzzzzzzzz-efficacy-of-vibrators/33057.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/bzzzzzzzz-efficacy-of-vibrators/33057.md?page=6)
