Every year or so, a unique new sex toy appears. This year's Huzzah! goes to this small, discreet, powerful and beautifully engineered little dual vibrator. It can be used solo as a simultaneous clit-and-G-spot stimulator (and by a guy, for intriguing internal-and-external prostate buzzing), but it really shines in partner sex. Yes -- an unintrusive, intense little device that can do both of you during full-on intercourse.
I'll tell you about our experience, but first, here's what the We-Vibe is: medical-grade silicone, rechargeable, waterproof, and with all its connections and controls internal and sealed. It's tiny (a three-and-a-half-inch "U") with two impressively powerful, quiet vibrators, one in each lobe. It's high concept, high-quality design. It seems to have attracted cheaper imitators, but I'd be inclined to avoid
them -- too many ways for them to not work well.
Here's the wet, sweaty personal nitty-gritty, my own and two women partners. First, because most of the reviews I've seen are female oriented, let me talk about my own experience.
Jeez, I like this thing! I love having my cockhead or frenulum face-to-face
or doggie-style vibrated during intercourse. It's astonishing to be deep inside a woman's body, wholly intimate, and to simultaneously, mysteriously, be buzzed. Mysteriously? Yes. I find myself completely unaware of the device when it's inserted along with me: It's the lovemaking itself that seems to hummmm. Genuine erotic novelty has gotten rare for me. The We-Vibe is brand new.
Prostate stimulation. It doesn't have quite the magic of partner sex, but may I highly recommend masturbation with a well-lubed We-Vibe buzzing your prostate, inside and out? Unique is the first word that comes to mind. Very and Good are the second and third.
How about women?
Would you be surprised if their reactions were a tad more complex than mine?
One partner loved it -- and was damn demonstrative in showing it: galloping comes, red-faced, pop-eyed panting, and unsubtle requests for More! There were a few frustrated moments when the too-slippery li'l fella slipped to the side and off the clit, but for the most part, it was an almost unnoticeable silent partner, swelling every sensation for both of us.
My other partner found it "odd," and not as powerful as her beloved Hitachi (nothing is). It was fun, and she certainly enjoyed my enthusiasm for it, but she wants more exploration and play before she'll decide if it's going to be a permanent part of our repertoire.
It's stayed in the top drawer of our bedstand, right along with the lube.
It's holding up well...and so are we. In fact, if I'm lucky, right after I send this off to Clean Sheets, I'll get a sultry Friday afternoon call saying, "Do you want to come home and experiment with that little purple thing again?"
