vibrator Archives - Oactually

The vibrator is probably the world’s most popular adult toy, with millions selling annually across the world. They come in varying shapes, colors and sizes with one to suit most tastes.

With a recent study claiming that almost one in four Americans possess a vibrator, we find it fascinating to understand the full story behind these adult toys.

Carvaka Sex Toy s, based in the UK has created this very entertaining interactive StoryMap which charts the history of the vibrator and shared it with O’actually!

Read about how in decades gone by, intimate massage was prescribed and carried out by physicians, and how this eventually lead to the development of the vibrators we know and love today.

It’s no secret Margaret Cho is a champion for women’s pleasure. When asked what her sex life was like recently, she responded, “Amazing amazing amazing.” Her openness with female sexuality and love of laughter made her a great subject for one of our favorite projects ever: Hysterical Literature.

Clayton Cubitt’s project reveals the real, surprising, sexy and playfulness of women’s pleasure through art. In it, he asks a variety of women to sit down and read out loud from a book they love. Just out of sight, ducked under a table, an assistant distracts the reader with a vibrator. The women continue to read until they can’t read anymore, overcome with those powerful convulsions of pleasure that take them overly entirely.

Cho’s session shows her being both vulnerable and enjoying herself at the same time – in essence, the ultimate badass. We almost feel like we shouldn’t be watching her because the moment is so real and intimate, which makes the whole thing that much better.

See Margaret Cho and her entirely awesome self here:

Whether this project is art or sex is up for debate. What we do know is it’s genre bending and boundary breaking – and we love it.

Be sure to check out the rest of the sessions. Watching these women attempt to accomplish a simple task, while being distracted with pleasure and finally succomb will affect you.

Enjoy and let us know, which is your favorite Hysterical Literature session?

Orgasmically yours,
Team O’a
