This post was deleted for the following reason: More history and less SEO, maybe. This is just way too flatout linkbait spambloggy as is. -- cortex

There was a typo in the FPP. He meant "SEO" not "SEX".

Yeah, and it ends with a link to a company whose products the blogger reviews. Pretty thin stuff.

Yeah, pretty spammy... although I have to admit, I didn't realize prior to reading this that it took over 150 years (YEARS!) for people (by which I mean "male doctors") to admit that women were capable of enjoying sex rather than having some sort of neurological disease. God damn Victorians ruined a lot of shit for a lot of people, didn't they?

So they realized it circa 9850 BCE?
Maybe the real question is: Who stopped realizing it, when and why?

It claims to be a history of male and female sex toys, but I see only one reference (at the very end) for something that could be actually labeled a "male" sex toy.
Why is it that women are encouraged to purchase and own sex toys - often even going to parties where sex toys are discussed and purchased - and it is seen as liberating and sexy - but when a man purchases an artificial vagina or a fleshlight he must do so under the cover of anonymity or he risks be labeled a loser, a weird loner, or otherwise undesirable?

Around 500 A.D.I never really got that; who would, in the middle of having sex, look down mournfully and think "this would be so much better if only it were ringing"?
Invention of Ben Wa balls. Originally they were a single ball used to increase men’s pleasure during intercourse. Some were solid, others hollow with clappers that made a ringing sound as they rolled around in the vagina.
