Can I become addicted to a vibrator?
| February 17, 2010
The short answer is no, addiction to a vibrator is not going to befall all women that venture into an adult store to purchase a vibrating sex toy. This is more likely a myth perpetuated by a society that isn’t entirely comfortable with a woman actually experiencing pleasure without the need for procreation. Using vibrators will not replace the need for human contact nor become the sudden sole focus of your sexual enjoyment. Vibrator use does not lead to a ‘bad habit’ and much like all desires you will experience a thirst for your toy and at times leave in it the drawer, such is the balance of libido and sexual appetite.
The fear of sexual pleasure leads some people to believe that enjoying sex toys and unleashing sexual libido will lead to some sort of lack of control.It is actually healthier to enjoy your sexual urges rather than suppress them and surely history shows that in societies which suppress sex experience very strange consequences in deviance’s that would certainly counter the societal norm. There is no limit to the amount of sexual enjoyment you can experience and using vibrators is part of that. In the case of Sex addiction it isn’t an addiction to your vibe but a psychological dependency on sex itself.
