I was having a very long and very interesting conversation with a customer yesterday when he asked me "do you get a lot of people who are worried that if their partner gets a vibrator it will replace them?" Of course I said yes. Absolutely - I get that question all of the time.My simple answer is that yes, vibrators can do things that people can't do. But, people can do things that vibrators can't do. Vibrators can't talk dirty to you, they can't lick you, they can't softly caress you. They vibrate. That's about it. It just so happens that for some people, the kind of stimulation that vibrators provide is the kind of stimulation that their body really responds to. Other people respond to tongues or fingers much more than vibrators. So it's possible that a person might discover that to have an orgasm, they really need vibration. That doesn't mean that their partner is immediately out of the picture. First, there's foreplay: all of the wonderful things that get someone ready for a vibrator. Then, there are a lot of things to do while someone is using a vibrator. For instance, if your partner is using a vibrator externally, provide some internal stimulation in whatever way they want. A lot of people really love these double sensations. You can even have intercourse and use a vibrator on the clitoris if you've got a nice tiny vibe like the Finger Fun.There are also some really easy and fun ways for a partner to actually help use the vibrator. Take the Silver Bullet, for instance. One person can hold the egg (the vibrating part) and the other person can hold the controls - you decide who holds what. Or, you could get a remote control vibrator and have all kinds of fun. A partner could also have fun playing with the pulsing speeds in the Gigi and using the vibrator as a way to really tease and tantalize.Lastly, there are vibrating cock-rings. Worn at the base of the body, these provide clitoral stimulation during intercourse. They can also be put on longer vibrators to create a Rabbit-like toy. This can be a sex toy that both people can use. It will help make the penis more sensitive and harder and will provide external stimulation to the person the penis is stimulating.At the end of the day, if vibration is the best way for a person to orgasm, do you want to deny them that pleasure? Or, do you want to work together to find ways that you can both be involved with as much pleasure as possible?If you have any other suggestions for using vibrators with a partner, leave them in the comments!
