I learned something today.
Did you know that the vibrator was the fifth household appliance to be electrified. It was invented in the 1880’s, to treat a medical condition, known either as “congestion of the genitalia” or “Female Hysteria”
From Wikipedia. “For centuries, doctors had been treating women for these illnesses by performing what we would now recognize as masturbation. However, not only did they regard the “vulvular stimulation” required as having nothing to do with sex, but reportedly found it time-consuming and hard work”
Those poor doctors!! I can just see it now.
“Another Doctor’s bill darling? Are you unwell, that’s the fourth time this week!”
“I know sweetheart, I am feeling a little poorly, but the Doctor works hard, and I do feel better after seeing him”
“Well what does he do to you?”
“Stimulates my vulva and genitals, until I feel a release of tension.”
“Rather him than me, poor hard-working bastard…”
Again, from Wikipedia: The home versions soon became extremely popular, with advertisements in periodicals such as Needlecraft, Woman’s Home Companion, Modern Priscilla, and the Sears, Roebuck catalog. These disappeared in the 1920s, apparently because their appearance in pornography made it no longer tenable for polite society to avoid the sexual connotations of the devices.
Awesome!! I laughed a lot during this article!!
There are links also to Wank Week. I think that this event is worthy of inclusion in the Olympics! Have a read, it is wonderful stuff!! Absolutely Gripping!!
Let me know if you are interested in participating in Wank Week, and we will see if we can set something up.
