Anonymous: How old do you have to be to buy sex toys online? what about in a store?
You have to be 18 to enter and make a purchase from a brick and mortar sex toy shop (although this laws may differ in other states). Most online sex toy stores also adhere to this age limit. I don’t think Amazon has age requirements — all they probably care about is whether or not you have a valid credit card.
Trying something new here — since I can’t queue question posts anymore, I’m going to see how posting them as text posts work.
Anonymous: Cis-female. Queer. Can you recommend a quiet, waterproof, insertable vibrator that doesn’t cost a ton and is phthalate free? Thanks.
Anonymous: Female, straight. Whats a good, reasonably priced vibrator you recommend?
Well, my recommendation should come as no surprise — California Exotics Butterfly Kiss. It’s a little over $10 on Amazon, phthalate-free, quiet (especially in water), and has clitoral and penetrable stimulators. For those in the market of something not penetrable but very small and powerful, you can never go wrong with the world-famous Pocket Rocket. At less than $10, it’s water-proof, fairly quiet, and some has lots of adjustable speeds. Don’t forget the batteries.
And truth be told, most small vibrators are pretty much noise-free if you use them underneath a heavy blanket/comforter, in the shower, or under water. When under the water, they make fun ripples on the surface too.
For more information on phthalates, check out this article.
Also, does anyone else remember the horrible song “Butterfly Kisses” by Bob Carlisle? It’s a love song from a dad to a daughter with Jesus mixed in. I don’t recommend singing it to yourself while you’re masturbating with your own Butterfly Kiss.

The first step towards recovery, Charlotte, is admitting you have a problem.
Do it in the shower or when your roommates are in class. There are plenty of waterproof and quiet vibrators you could purchase to facilitate the pleasure play. The sound of the shower should also drown out any noises.
Vibrators are easy to use: rub and/or insert and repeat.
Just when I think I’ve seen everything when it comes to sex toys, I see something like this. It looks like the perfect companion for The Vamp dildo.
Most vibrator sounds can be muffled by simply placing a blanket over yourself during pleasure play. Since this toy will be your first and you want small, I recommend either the Pocket Rocket or Fukuoku. The Pocket Rocket is waterproof and no slightly larger than a lipstick tube. The Fukuoku is not waterproof, but it is a fun thing you get to place on your finger like a ring.
Anything Amazon ships comes either in a plain envelope or a box with the Amazon logo. If you do order the California Exotic Butterfly Kiss, it comes in a box. Based on its appearance, you could have very well ordered a Jane Austen book and the new Glee cd.
The Fleshlight is one of the tools I recommend to my male clients who experience premature ejaculation. Its soft material mimics the feel of the vagina, helping them to essentially use it as part of an “endurance training” program I create for them. (via Sex Ed Solutions)
A great way to contemplate the Sex Toy Double Standard.
I found the perfect contest for Tumblr: the Pleasure Chest is giving away a Rabbit vibrator to whoever comments with (a link to) the funniest/cutest picture of a bunny by noon tomorrow.
If you don’t plan on entering, could you send me a good picture? I’d like to win a Rabbit. And I’ll credit you here on STFU! Photo replies enabled!
In case anyone needs to win a rabbit….
I love the Pleasure Chest and bunnies. Good luck, readers who enter.
Yes, I think you should start incorporating toys during sex with your boyfriend. You’ve done your homework, and you know what makes you orgasm. You shouldn’t have to fake it with your boyfriend — you just have to show him. Considering how pleasurable vibrators can be, your boyfriend might be delighted to play with them too.
Don’t rule out watching porn during sex either. If your boyfriend cares about pleasing you, he’ll be more than delighted to try any which way he can (as long as he feel comfortable doing so).
Don’t go big on your first purchase. You don’t want to overwhelm yourself with a 4”+ vibrator that has all kinds of bells and whistles. I suggest either a finger/clitoral stimulator like the Fukuoku or the ever-popular Pocket Rocket.

Thanks again for your inquiry.
I asked Babeland for an photo of their packaging, and they delivered. Here you go curious readers: proof sex toy shops ship their products discreetly. You don’t have to worry about boxes sitting on your doorstep with “VIBRATOR FOR A LONELY VAGINA” stamped on the sides.
And of course you can shop to your heart’s content at Babeland.com. Oh look, one of my favorites is on the top sellers list.
(I’m not getting paid to post this either.)
Hello, Texan. I’m sorry you’re living an unwanted chaste lifestyle. I can also empathize. School is time consuming, but this is why people invented vibrators.
If there’s truth in every episode of Sex and the City, then women can get addicted to their bedroom toys. I, however, don’t think it’s true. While the feelings and sensations offered by a vibrator are amazing and often something a partner can’t duplicate, they can’t be compared to being with someone else. At the risk of sounding lovey-dovey, having sex with another human being is special and amazing. There’s the warmth of two bodies, intimacy, kissing, etc. When you’ve finished masturbating with a vibrator, you can’t cuddle with it either.
So I encourage you to buy a sex toy to get you through this dry spell, but don’t get worried of becoming addicted. And when you do find a new sexual partner, they might even want to include your toy during bedroom playtime as well.
