“Hysteria” and the Strange History of Vibrators

In case you didn’t know, Lovehoney has one of the biggest sex toy collections we’ve ever seen. Lovehoney’s main forté is sex toys, but you can also spot its impressive stash of lingerie and accessories like lube and bondage gear. “Easy to use, especially for people who may struggle to hold on to small objects or other sex toys, this vibe slips right over the tip of your finger,” says Balestrieri.

The Pom is meant to fit in the palm of the user’s hand (get it?), making it compact and easy to control. The toy can bend for general or targeted clitoral stimulation with a pointed edge that juts out in the top of the toy. This tiny but mighty blob from sexual wellness brand Dame has five intensities and five patterns, laid out in the user manual — which isn’t something I can say about every toy. Finn confessed that the Womanizer isn’t technically a vibrator, but judging from her recommendation and that of many lists, no one cares. “If you’ve read any articles on sex toys recently, you’ve probably heard about ‘suction’-style toys, sex toys that use air pulsation to deliver targeted pleasure,” said Finn.

It features the iconic rose clitoral design with a new insertable stem for internal stimulation. Made from the brand’s signature soft silicone, it combines classic suction with a firm yet flexible stem. You can guide your partner’s hand to your hot spots, or simply use the toy on yourself. If they see how much you’re enjoying yourself, they will likely be open to including sex toys as part of the regular routine.

It has eight different vibration settings that you can cycle through via the controls on the handle. They’re somewhat small, so I found myself fumbling with them a bit in the beginning. But once I knew where the buttons were, this issue was easily corrected.

To this day, I have friends, of all ages and relationship statuses, who can only orgasm when using a Womanizer product, and I’m sure the Enhance will continue that pattern. Sexual violence isn’t an uncommon experience, and even though we’ve made strides in talking about it , we still don’t talk much about its after-effects. After experiencing sexual trauma, many people experience a range of sexual difficulties, including — but certainly not only — sexual avoidance.

In vintage modes, the Viberator really favors the deep, bottom-heavy intensity that some folks treasure in vintage Uni-Vibes. On the Viberator, this deep, bass-heavy throb and pulse is apparent even in the lowest reaches of the intensity setting. Switching to the modern voice, however, puts the buffer to work—attenuating the low end, emphasizing the high end, and adding a more spacious, clean quality to the modulation. For players who switch between single-coils and humbuckers, or use darker amps, this mode can really open up the Viberator’s possibilities. Better still, the modern voice can be fine-tuned using the bright trimpot.

And if you like both, a rabbit or dual-stimulation vibe could be your perfect match. Vibrators come in a ton of shapes and styles, with different power and speed settings. Many vibes are designed for external stimulation, but there are also lots of options that can be used internally to target the G-spot, A-spot, cervix, and prostate. Dual-stimulation vibrators can reach two hot spots at once—rabbit vibes viberator, for example, focus on both the clit and the G-spot.
