The Hard Facts About The “First” Male Vibrator
Don't let the suave British speaker in the video below distract you. He's describing a new sex toy specifically designed for men — one that's being billed as the so-called "first male vibrator."

Or so I thought—until I learned about Hot Octopuss's new clitoral stimulator, which uses an oscillator to create movement.
Where are all the sex toys for older adults?
It isn’t every day you see a sex toy on a billboard, and it’s even more rare you’ll see one in the hands of a person in their seventies.
