The Top 10 Craziest Sex Toy Facts

The Oldest Dildo

The oldest dildo

Think you're the first in history to seek a little extra fun in the bedroom? Think again! The oldest dildo goes way back – we're talking 28,000 years! This prehistoric pleasure-seeker was found tucked away in the Hohle Fels Cave in Germany. This ancient artifact, made of polished siltstone, measures 20 centimeters and has a smooth finish.

It shows our ancestors were not prudish but rather the opposite. This discovery flips the script on what you might have thought about historical sexual norms. It's a clear sign that the desire for pleasure is as old as humanity itself, and size – apparently – has mattered for quite some time.

Vibrators Weren’t Invented for Sexual Pleasure

Vibrators started as 1800s medical tools to treat 'female hysteria', not for pleasure. These devices even appeared in the Sears, Roebuck and Co. catalog as "personal massagers," hinting at health benefits rather than intimate pleasure.

Over time, the perception of female pleasure evolved, transforming the vibrator from a medical instrument to a celebrated tool of sexual liberation found in bedroom drawers worldwide. This shift from a clinical device to a personal pleasure aid mirrors the broader journey towards sexual freedom and empowerment.

Adult Toys Bans (Alabama, Can’t own more than six dildos in Texas, some countries)

In some parts of the United States, lawmakers have gotten rather particular about your private pleasures. Take Alabama, for instance – they've got something called the Anti-Obscenity Enforcement Act, a law that flat-out prohibits the sale of sex toys.

Now, if you're in Texas, you might want to count how many dildos you've got stashed away. Why? Because owning six or more is a no-go according to state law.

Many countries ban sex toys, not just the U.S. That means taking your favorite vibe on vacation could be riskier than you think. So, you better leave your dildos at home.

The Pearl Royale vibrator is a fancy, expensive sex toy made with platinum and jewels, for people who like luxurious things. It's all about luxury and pleasure, with no limit on price.

Why Does The Rabbit Vibrator Look Like a Rabbit?

The cute design originated in Japan to creatively bypass strict obscenity laws, leading to its iconic animal shape, notably the rabbit, with its distinctive ears designed for clitoral stimulation, while the main shaft targets internal pleasure. This dual-action approach revolutionized personal pleasure, making it a fan favorite for its functionality and approachable design.

Animals are the Most Popular Dildo Shapes


Strolling through Japanese sex shops or browsing online, you might notice the unique range of dildos shaped like cute animals or beloved cartoon characters. This isn't merely for aesthetic appeal; it's a clever workaround for Japan's strict obscenity laws, allowing these items to be marketed as novelties rather than explicit sexual aids. This approach not only makes these products more accessible but also reflects a cultural perspective where sexuality is integrated into the fabric of daily life with a sense of playfulness and innocence.

Manufacturers have ingeniously navigated legal and societal limitations, transforming constraints into creative opportunities. This trend serves as a reminder that the exploration of pleasure and expression of sexuality can be as open and varied as the imagination allows.
