The 19th century was a dark depressing period in the history of female sexuality. Female sexuality was in fact treated as some form of hysteria, the treatment of which was alarmingly named hysterical paroxysm. This quite simply involved vaginal massage by hand by a member of the medical profession. What a truly tiresome job that must have been but I guess someone had to do it!

The workload was soon reduced by the invention of a steam driven vibration machine that was used by the medical profession to treat the hysteria amongst women that must have been rife at the time. This device however was not easily portable and was later replaced by an electro mechanical device designed and conceived by a British doctor named Joseph Mortimer in 1883.
The electric vibrator was born.

In the following years women started to buy themselves vibrators, purely for medical purposes of course. Advertisements could be found in women’s publications dating back to as early as 1910. These devices were mail order only and typically carried slogans such as “prevent illness, experience the wonders of vibration”.

In the decades that followed vibrators evolved, designs improved. They became smaller, quieter and more powerful and were recognised as devices designed and used for sexual gratification. 1000’s of different vibrators have been produced but few have enjoyed the huge success of Rabbit vibrators. They are now a mainstream device; women of all walks of life use and enjoy them. Openly discussing the fun they have with their rabbit. A phenomenon that was later featured on TV’s hugely successful sex and the city in which one of the characters develops an addiction to her own rabbit vibrator.

What are Rabbit Vibrators?

Rabbit Vibrators are a type of vibrating sex toy. Identifiable by the vibrator unit being shaped like a rabbit complete with two vibrating ears and nose. Historically there was a single variant, a vibrating dildo named the Jack Rabbit. However due to the incredible success of this product there are now a large range of products in different shapes and sizes but all retain the rabbit styled vibrator.

Why are Rabbit Vibrators so popular?

Vibrating dildos have been available for many years; traditional vibrating dildos consisted of a shaft with a vibrator mounted at the base. When in use the entire shaft vibrated which whilst pleasurable didn’t target any specific region. If the user wanted to use the vibrator for clitoral stimulation she would need to remove the vibrator from the vagina and target the clitoris manually.
The designers of the original Rabbit vibrator applied common sense to the design of vibrating dildos. They mounted the vibrator unit on the side of the shaft so that the vibrator directly targeted the clitoris whilst the unit was inserted into the vagina. However the real stroke of genius lay in the design of the vibrator unit itself, it may look cute but the format is incredibly effective. The rabbit ears vibrate against the clitoral hood, ideal for particularly sensitive women and for those wanting more direct stimulation the harder rabbit’s nose can be used directly on the clitoris.

The super rabbit vibrators

Nowadays there are a huge number of variants; the “super” varieties typically feature a dozen speeds and Pre-set programs. With these devices the user really can lie back and let her rabbit do the work. It can however be argued that the fundamentals of the device remain the same. Cheaper varieties provide 99% of the pleasure at a fraction of the cost.

Conclusion

This family of adult toys has single handedly destroyed some of the taboo’s that surround adult toys even today. Women aren’t ashamed of their rabbit vibrators; they no longer need to make an excuse to own such a device. They do so simply because they enjoy using them. The rabbit vibrator is here to stay!
