I was thinking about the “Sex Toys” today and wondering what did people use in the 1800’s? Also, it was brought to my attention that in the 1800’s people had worn pubic wigs or Merkins. Just get the crazy glue and presto magic you have a self made Chia pet. Prrrrr…but why did they do this you ask? The unhygienic conditions of the time meant that hair attracted lice so there’s your answer. Yum!

So, what else did I discover while I took myself on this adventurous history lesson? The electric vibrator came to its inception in 1869 with the invention of a steam-powered massager, patented by an American doctor. This device was designed as a medical tool for treating “female disorders” within 20 years a British doctor followed up with a more portable battery-operated model; by 1900, dozens of styles of electric vibrators were on the loose.

They appear more like power tools then sex toys ouch. It seemed to be not only can you use them to tickle your fancy but to fix up around the house. After you’re done using the vibrator you can build a new addition on the house. We have come along way pretty soon we shall be able to talk to our vibrators and they will act on command. Well one can dream can’t I?
