Sex Toys Right Through The Past

By: Lolita Lenore

Antique relics that some assume to be sextoys have been found dating back centuries. Was the Willendorf Goddess a fertility idol, or a suggestive piece of art? No one will ever know for certain, but references to the exacting craftsmanship displayed in the didos crafted by certain Medieval saddle makers have been found in ladies’ of the court’s diaries. All the way through olden times, sex toys have been a secret in the boudoir of loads of important figures.

The hand-crank operated vibrator often referenced in jesting is a Victorian invention, assumed to be a remedial tool at the time. Mostly females were diagnosed with a condition known as ‘hysteria’ which was improved by an orgasm. Practioners at the time, being subject to the sexually oppressive culture of the era, created primitive sex toy type devices to allow for sexual release, and thus treat their patient’s ‘hysteria’.

While the advancements in sex toys have come along way from the hand-stitched leather dildo and manually powered vibrator, the common idea has always been the same. A adult toy is a way to have entertainment. Adult toys are no surrogate for the real thing, but they can definitely add a little punch when used alongside, or be a delightful way to explore one’s sexuality minus partner.

The materials have improved both the functioning and sanitation of sextoys. Contemporary jelly toys can be effortlessly washed in ways that leather never could. Rubber has been used for sextoys since shortly after it’s recipe was perfected, and provides a compact and easy-to-clean shell. By properly cleaning a sextoy after each use, the longevity of the toy is increased. The astonishing technology used in some sextoys would be beyond comprehension to the early doctors working on the first vibrators.
