Because no one I’m seeing in these comments is bringing it up, there is something to be said for wanting to do a thing yourself. Sure, if the goal is just orgasms, shove her on a sybian and go play video games. It’ll be very efficient. However, if your goal is to engage in a shared experience where each of you is dedicating yourself to the labor of pleasuring the other in the most intimate way possible, even if it doesn’t result in an orgasm, then the vibrator is not working toward your goal. Look at oral. Almost no person is going to orgasm from giving oral. We do it as an act of love, giving pleasure to a partner without pleasure being automatically recieved. A vibe will make your partner cum whether or not you are there. The genAI of orgasms, a machine producing using raw electric power what a person would produce using skill and emotion. Using it doesn’t have the same demonstration effect. There is a special satisfaction in being the one who puts in the work to bring a partner to orgasm, and a special satisfaction that comes from being the one they are willing to put real effort into bringing to an orgasm. Which one matters more to you is subjective but this take is overly flattening while pretending to be enlightened.
You can use a vibrator on someone, even integrate them into normal PIV sex. Sex toys are your teammates, not your competition. Then again I’m a lesbian and we don’t have as many hang-ups about using sex toys during sex.
That’s just repeating the concept in the OP and ignoring my point. There is a value in the personal touch. Which would signal a better partner to you: a woman who knows you like to have food sometimes so she installs a vending machine in your apartment with all the options set to ice cream and the prices at 0.00, so you can always have as much of this one thing to eat, any time, any day, with or without her, as you like as long as you keep paying for power, or one who knows you like food, so she figures out what you like and dislike, learns recipes that she thinks will make you happy, spends time finding or growing good produce to make those recipes, and only when she’s feeling ill or burned out by work, reaches for the vending machine? The vending machine is always there as an option, but not wanting to use it is not just weakness. It’s often a desire to be the best version of yourself for your partner, not as a competition with the machine but a competition with the limitations of human language and form to express the inexpressible extent of your love.
OP, your bad photoshop has a million times more heart and soul than any AI image.
How rude; no need to insult the guy!
explaining the joke
(A million times more than zero is still zero. Bad photoshops are so much better than AI that the comparison defies being quantified!)
Yeah, i’ll take a half or quarter assed photoshoped meme over AI slop any day. It at least has some soul to it
Bad human art has more soul and care than meaningless AI slop
I regularly have people presenting to me and have to give feedback. I’m now actively looking for messy presentation slides with typos and pressing them with questions afterwards to tease out if I’m just being given an AI copy/paste output or genuine work.
those who fear sex toys get neither the sex nor the toy
But we still have the fear!
Ha!
Wtf did we evolve opposable thumbs for if not for tool use
grabbing branches probably.
Some use the tool, others just became tools
Gently rubbing the clit.
A man beingg afraid of a vibe is also a HUGE red flag
If you can’t bring more to a relationship than an appliance can, then you’ve got to work on yourself.
This is a bad take. There’s nothing wrong with using toys during sex. There’s nothing wrong with your partner using a toy on you instead of their body nor is there nothing wrong with your partner just enjoying witnessing you using a toy on yourself. As long as everyone is enjoying themselves and everything is consensual and safe, who cares?
I fully agree with everything you just said. My point was that if you bring so little to the table that you feel you’re in danger of being successfully replaced by a toy, then you need to do some self-improvement.
I guess I can agree with that with the caveat that the self improvement should be understanding that the presence of a toy in sex isn’t replacing you at all. Wanting to use a toy with someone is not replacing them.
Using the toy on your partner is potentially part of bringing more to the table, yes.
People who grew up on Nintendo, and specifically Mario Party in the early days, definitely have a particular set of skills though.
set of skills 😎 arthritis
I love this because I’m pretty sure it’s why I (female) was able to beat my (male) ex at certain mini-games. Gotta rub the stick button back and forth really quickly? Oh honey, you have no chance against me.
Tragically few games use a rapid jerking motion.
No More Heroes for the Wii does! You have to shake the wiimote to recharge your not-a-lightsaber and it’s hilarious.
Tears of the Kingdom to un-stick your builds
And a burned set of palms
Bad photoshop my ass, that’s some fine photoshop work!
I must agree though, I’d rather see some bad photoshop memes than AI slop.
It took a long time to trace those outlines! Great photoshop seconded!
Outlines are fine, the tell is the utterly different lighting (could have been solved with a non-lightbox photo)
I am man, and man evolved to use tools.
early on when i gave her one for xmas she was shocked (sheltered upbringing). to this day it by far the xmas gift she uses the most
Ladies, is it off-putting if you take home a random guy and he brings his own vibrator?
Where has it been
In my fanny pack, of course.
What’s so funny
They really should’ve called them fanny sacks.
I feel like the move would be to ask if they have any toys they want to bring into the game
Most women wouldn’t feel comfortable asking that to a random guy.

Oh jeez, I could feel that through the internet o_o
Please tell me you found a man who can bring a decent quality toy as a first date present
I mean… It’s just a suggestion.
“I know what you’re thinking. ‘Did he get me to fire six nuts or only five?’ Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a magic wand vibrator, the most powerful in the world and would blow your clit clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question: ‘Do I feel horny?’ Well, do ya, punk?”
Terrific quote.
This calls for the nuclear option.
I believe that’s the noble steed
Seeing people call every edited thing ‘AI’ even when it’s not actually made with AI reminds me of how people used to call every edited thing ‘photoshopped’
Uh… edited images are photoshopped. That’s kind of what that word means, despite what Adobe’s lawyers would like people to say.
Same
This is not the kind of thing people say “on main”, but I gotta say, holding your partner in your arms from behind while using this? Such an intimate experience.
Look at this person with a partner
You don’t know her. She’s from a different town. But she’s totally real, I swear
Can confirm! It can get a bit difficult to reach so far down tho
This works. It’s like watching an exorcism. I don’t have a lot of achievements in my life, but this was a proud moment.
