How Guys Feel About Vibrators

One guy sounds off on sharing the spotlight with your battery-operated friend. There was once a time when vibrators were scary.According to a variety of unreliable Internet sources, the earliest known vibrator was invented by Egyptian pharaoh and Liz Taylor doppelgänger, Cleopatra, and it was comprised of a hollowed-out gourd filled with angry bees.For the next 2,000 years, one of the most popular sex toys continued to be an intimidating force. A quick Google image perusal of "first vibrator" returns Roman phalluses crudely cut from stone, steam-operated Victorian contraptions that look like they were invented by Nicola Tesla, and an intimate hand crank model that more closely resemble an egg-beater than an *ahem* beater.But no longer! The vibrators of today come in many shapes and sizes. All of them are ergonomically designed for optimal comfort and few to none of them are packed to bursting with live, actively perturbed yellow jackets.RELATED: The 9 Most WTF Sex Toys EverThe short answer is that asking to use a vibrator during fun time with a guy may make him feel inadequate. He might see it as a supplement that's only necessary to make up for some sexual shortcoming of his own.But the longer answer is that maybe guys aren't so weird about them. A quick poll of male and female friends returned that, while there was a spectrum of experiences—some had used vibrators in bed regularly, some had tried it once, some had never had it come up—no guy or girl had run into a situation where a girl proposed it and the guy refused.In the instances where girls had only tried it with one guy, it wasn't the dude in their sexual Rolodex who had needed the most help; it was the one they'd been most sexually comfortable with. Because, they explained, while a vibrator does supplement a sexual experience, it's not a replacement for anything human.RELATED: 4 Things You're Insecure About That Guys Don't Even NoticeNor will anything human ever fully carry out the function desired of a vibrator. When I told a female friend that using a vibrator might make a guy feel insecure, she put it eloquently: "Well, that's stupid. Sorry your c**ks aren't battery-powered."And more importantly, most guys seem to understand this. Out of the guys whose partners had wanted to try it, some were excited by the idea of spicing things up and some were indifferent, but none were offended or embarrassed.So if you're interested in bringing some good vibrations into the bedroom, don’t stress too much about your partner's reaction. He'll probably be happy to do it and he might even be excited.If not, see how he feels about bees.RELATED: Can Guys Actually Tell If You Faked an Orgasm?
