What is Vibrator?
In the simplest sense, vibrator, as can be understood from the English word origin (vibrate: to vibrate), is a tool that gives vibration. Vibrators, which have many types such as rechargeable, battery powered, remote controlled, can be used both for massage and to spice up the sexual life. The vibrator supports men and women to experience a unique orgasm. After a tired day, you can relax as you wish with your vibrator.
How to Use Vibrator?
Since there are many different types of vibrators, it would be wrong to talk about a single use. But to explain the use of vibrator in general, you can experience a unique sexual pleasure thanks to the vibrations of the vibrator by touching the clitoris, vaginal canal, penis or any area where you feel sexual pleasure. You can review the usage details for each vibrator type under the title of Vibrator Types .
History of Vibrator
In fact, the vibrator has been in our lives for over 150 years. Until the early 1900s, manual vibrators were mostly used for massage purposes. However, after the 1950s, electric vibrators began to be marketed as sex toys and their use, especially in women's sexual life, became widespread [1] . Introduced in 1968, the Hitachi Magic Wand vibrator was marketed as a massage tool, although in fact women also used it to masturbate and experience orgasm [2] .
In the 1970s, the famous feminist sexologist Betty Dodson succeeded in influencing millions of women by training them about masturbation, use of vibrators, and sex in order to liberate women sexually [3] . In the 80s, rabbit vibrators were introduced, the first type of vibrator that could stimulate the clitoris and vaginal canal simultaneously*. Showing bunny vibrators in an episode of the famous TV series Sex and the City has greatly increased the popularity of vibrators. Today, there are many different types of vibrators. You can use your vibrator for masturbation or to add excitement to your sex life with your partner.
*Interesting Fact: Since the laws in Japan at that time prohibited the sale of products that looked like genital organs, rabbit vibrators that did not look like genital organs were invented and put on the market [4] .
