Vibrator Myths

vibes

There are lots of myths when it comes to using vibrators and dildos. Sometimes there can be shades of truth but often the reality is quite different from what you and your partner might think.

Vibrators stretch out the vagina

False, my friends — the vagina is like an envelope; it stays closed, with the sides touching, until you insert something inside of it. When you remove the something (a penis, dildo, baby, shampoo bottle), the walls naturally close back into place. While your vagina may stretch if you make a habit of carrying a bowling ball around inside of it 24/7, it won’t stretch from regular vibrator use, even if you’re using a larger model. No one will be able to tell you’ve been using a vibrator from examining your vagina.

I’ll become addicted to the vibration

Well, this can be true. But addiction isn’t generally the right word. It won’t give you the shakes if you aren’t using it – only when you are , if you are using it properly. Jokes aside, you have nothing to worry about in terms of addiction. Masturbation is healthy, and many women can’t orgasm without the aid of a vibrator. Vibrators can teach you what kinds of stimulation you enjoy. Once you start experimenting with and enjoying your sexuality, it follows that you will be happier, healthier and less stressed in other areas of your life. An orgasm is a great stress reliever, and you can gain power and confidence from knowing exactly what you need to do to have one.
