These are outside my experience - am I the only one? I have been watching a TV show which I love (Frankie & Grace Netflix) where the main characters develop a vibrator for older women with arthritic hands. It got me thinking am I the odd one out? I have never even tried one for no particular reason just haven't.

Ive had one for years and wouldn't be without it. Especially as now my husband of only ten years has been rendered impotent and we haven't made love for two years. Of course it doesn't replace the affection and closeness of the real thing but it does give amazing orgasms and keeps everything in working order!

I agree this kind of thread could end up as a news article - the DM uses this kind of thing every day. Mind you, it's usually Mumsnet they select. wink

Daisyboots. Why don't you email them and ask about the battery compartment? It would be a great pity for it to go to waste! winkgrin

Looking around superdgug yesterday, scanning all shelves trying to remember what i had actually gone in for,i was very surprised to see a lipstick type vibrator
Who knew you could find such a thing on a shelf in Superdgrug,shock

Make sure you dont get it confused with a lipstick then. Could end up knocking your teeth out! grin

Be very careful where you keep them,amusing as it was to see my dog walk downstairs with my vibrator in his mouth I was so glad I was on my own.

My friend has always said......" if I pop my clogs make sure you get to my bedside drawer before any of the (adult) kids"

Okay here goes. Yes I have a partner - and yes I have a vibrator, partly because his sex drive is low, mine at 53 is high and sometimes I rather orgasm with no kind of fuss if that makes sense - I don't use it that often though!

I'm still trying to work out the practicalities of using an electric toothbrush ....all those bristles!!!???

This thread came to mind over the weekend when I met up with a friend. In the course of our conversation she mentioned that she had forgotten that she had left hers lying around. When it was noticed by a family member she tried to pass it off as a stick blender for making soup. I guess it could work?!

I work in the NHS. When I started out I worked as a PA to a consultant surgeon. How I loved the weekly handover tapes from when he did his stint covering A&E. On one occasion a male arrived in A&E in very obvious discomfort. He was positively dancing. (The story was told to me by the SHO who worked under my Consultant).It transpired the poor unfortunate man had inserted the 'item' somewhere (use your imagination) but it had gone a little further on it's journey than planned. The poor man was in very obvious discomfort. He was asked how fresh the batteries were and said they were brand new. After a few attempts to remove the item the same way it got there (I'm trying to be very polite) the poor man actually needed surgery. I should not have laughed but sometimes some of the stories I heard from the A&E cohort of patients were just too too weird not to.

Once, Googling 'toyshops', I found myself on the kind of website that wasn't intended for children. I found out about several 'appliances' I'd never heard of before - some of which I really don't want to contemplate!

anno, I had three hens living happily in my garden but they were, of course, decimating everything in their paths. I googled 'garden hens' - foolishly. I subsequently found that any search for anything to do with chickens or hens was fraught with difficulty.

What's wrong with the old spin dryer, & if caught you just say you were trying to stop it vibrating ???

Alypoole Sat 16-Sept-17 19:02:14

Like so many others I've found mine invaluable since the menopause. Hate the rabbit-type ones though. Mine is very discreet and yet powerful. Plenty of choice on the internet and did you know you can get vibrating knickers too? Maybe........

An electric toothbrush is useful. So I have been told ?
