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.

I just think how embarrassing it would be for my relatives if it was found after my death. So no I don't have one.

Yes that would be my fear so no

Yes, I had one many moons ago when I was on my own and had a sex drive! It was very hard blush, plastic and cold! It worked ok with some imagination, but you can’t beat the real thing! wink.

Love the airport story!
When I was a science teacher in my 30s there was a section of work for the 13 year olds, on the topic of waves. Anyone who has taught secondary will know the danger of anything vaguely smutty - class in giggles and order hard to restore. In one section I was supposed to make waves in a tank of water by using a little bit of electronic kit called a vibrator. No way! It was a "thing that vibrates" as far as I was concerned. But the next topic was the internal combustion engine including the rotary kind. I just had to bite the bullet and keep a straight face, pre-empt the smut and refer to "The unfortunately named Wankel engine."
And on a more personal note - the only time I have ever had something stolen from my car the thief's haul included a plastic model of the female pelvis and a vibrator. I did wonder what they made of that.

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

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........

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

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.

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!

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.

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

Deni1963 Sun 30-Jul-17 15:50:38

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!

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

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.

MissAdventure Thu 29-Jun-17 14:37:07

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

valeriej43 Thu 29-Jun-17 10:57:30

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
