To never have tried / owned a vibrator

[Mumof41987]

What am I missing ?? Never felt the need for one but best friend says I don't know what I'm missing ? Am I weird for never having a vibrator ??

I don't get the people saying it's 'not the same as the real thing'

You're not trying to replicate having sex with another human being when you masturbate with a sex toy. You're masturbating. With a very intense, efficient bringer of orgasms. It's a wank. That's it.

No, I've never used one. I don't need to.

I tried one for the first time this year.

I can't have an orgasm with it. And I tried. I really tried. Until my bits were numb I tried.

I can orgasm from masturbation and/or from oral sex, but not from a vibrator.

So don't get too excited about what it might be like, because it might be a massive disappointment.

Vibrators can vibrate... I am pretty sure no penis is able to do that

Oh, they can. Pop a vibrating butt plug up his arse and make sure it's angled to sit on his prostate.

dollydaydream114 You've just made me lol

What the heck is 'edging', FrayBentos?

No, I've never used one. I don't need to.

Many people don't need to use them. I don't need to. I can manage just fine without them but they add something different to your sex life. My womaniser gives me an orgasm I can't get from my husband or finger. It's also a lot quicker- like way quick so handy for the times when you just want to orgasm quickly.

I am not saying everyone should try one, each to their own and all that, but the majority of people who do use them don't use them because they need to. It just adds a bit of extra fun and different types of orgasm.

@brightlightceiling - if oral is your thing (I love it) have you tried a sqweel wheel?

Margot, edging is bringing yourself to the edge repeatedly until you finally let yourself orgasm. So you'd use your fingers or toy or vibrating husband penis and get yourself right to the edge of an orgasm and before you pass the point of no return you pause and let it all calm down. Then you do it again right to the edge and then pause. And edge and pause. And edge and pause. Then when you finally give in and go past the point of no return you have a lurvely big strong orgasm. Yes yes yes.

I don't understand why someone who can get the real thing would buy a sex toy
They are completely different things. Masturbation is as real as sex.

You can have a great sex life and still enjoy using vibrators, either as part of your sex life or on your own.

A vibrator doesn't change it's thing, I like some teasing.
You can absolutely tease with a vibe! I love teasing with my toys. I find edging so much better using a toy - either on my own or with my DH.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Ah thank you FrayBentos - I didn't realise there was a technical term for it .

Indeed Margot

Thanks for the tips . I like the sound of edging . Never heard of this before

Useful if you have trouble falling asleep.

Masturbation and sex are two completely different things as most people on the thread are alluding too. Think people saying it's disgusting, have issues

Never vaginally orgasmed with a vibrator. I imagine if you like penis but haven't got a partner who can get you there then it's an option

I love mine. I've had a few bullets and different types over the years but nothing compares to a Rabbit for me. It's all about the ears

Wholeheartedly recommend the Rampant Rabbit Moregasm Ears from Ann Summers. www.annsummers.com/sex-toys/sex-toys-shop-by-category/sex-toys-rampant-rabbits/moregasm-rampant-rabbit-ears/67073.html

Never known anything like it, it's incredible. And my boyfriend loves me using it during sex too because he's not insecure :)

Oh and it's half price at the moment! Although well worth the £45 at full price - it's waterproof and rechargable, so no batteries. And AMAZING. In case I haven't made that clear...

Another vote for the womaniser, price tag is but its the best money I've ever spent

Any mains powered wand would be perfect, for one they look like back massagers if you are concerned about someone looking through your drawers, and secondly they give amazing orgasms with minimal effort or dexterity

Got my first one at the grand old age of 33. Got a wand. Never looked back - best thing I ever bought and now I have a couple more!

The mains powered magic wand changed my life. My legs don't work sometimes after i use it.

Never known anything like it, it's incredible. And my boyfriend loves me using it during sex too because he's not insecure

Or maybe just because that's his personal tastes? People who arent into vibraters aren't a bunch of insecure prudes, they might get up to other stuff that'ld make your eyes water, cos y'know different people are into different things!
