Whatever happened to the simple vibrator?

Okay, what comes to your mind when I say "rabbit"? I'll just guess it's the same thing that comes to my mind- a cute little furry animal with tall pointy ears. Now what if I combined the word "rabbit" with the words "sex toy"?

 I don't know about the rest of you older gals but until yesterday I would have had a blank look on my face.

The things you can learn from your kids. That could have been the title to today's blog. But I figured "vibrator" is more of a grabber!

My son enlightened me. He's a film and video producer and yesterday I got to view a video he produced in which four  professional, attractive young women are discussing the pros and cons (well there weren't any cons in this case) of a new sex toy on the market-Orgasm in a Box for Her. I won't go into details (although I imagine some of you readers might want me to) but lets just say it consisted of a mini device the girls  called a "bullet"...

Let me pause here. This tiny little object really is the size and shape of a bullet. And these four young women said "bullet" like everyone knew what a "bullet" was. Do they? Is it just me who is so naive when it comes to sex toys? But wait. Then one of the women took out this little pink rubber "rabbit" with pointy ears that she jokingly called a finger puppet and she slipsped it on her finger. And the other women all smiled. It seems they all knew about the "rabbit" just as they all knew about the "bullet". Old hat, it turns out. Both have been around for ages. Ages! It appears that what was new here is that this sex toy combined the two and motorized it. The bullet, it seems, can be used alone for clitoral stimulation, or even better, ladies, you can slip the rabbit over the bullet, slide the little motorized attachment up so it can go different speeds... (Well, there you go, I pretty much did describe it). The women in the video all agreed it was a great little sex toy. Really did the trick.

 I have to confess it looked like a nifty little device. (Anyone who's interested can email me and I'll give you the site where you can purchase it- only $18 and the gals also all agreed it was a bargain).

The plain old trusty vibrator is passé, ladies. Get with it. Or maybe you all have and I'm the only woman way behind the times. I even bet this new little sex toy doesn't arrive in your mailbox in a plain brown wrapper so no one will know.

And now a brief postscript. After my son sent me the email with the video attachment I emailed him back to tell him what a great job he'd done and I kept finding myself saying double entendrés like - I'm so excited about this. And - "It's hard to imagine..."

Well, you get the point. Oops, I did it again!

Who invented thong undies and WHY???

Young women love them. I see so many of them wearing thong underwear. I "literally" see the thongs. Girls, do you know or care that when you're wearing jeans or any kind of low slung pants that when you bend over or even lean forward your thong strap shows? Maybe it's cool. Like having your bra straps show when you wear tank tops. One day a while back I was with my grown daughter (yes, she still wears thongs) and I was trying on a pair of pants. "God, mom, you can't wear those pants with those underpants. There's a line!!!" Now, I find this funny. It's bad to have the bottom lines of your panties show through your pants but it's apparently okay to have the waist band and the top of the thong part show when you lean forward. But, hey, my daughter was not going to give up on my need - yes, my need - for a pair of thongs. So, like all "obedient" mothers desirous of winning their daughter's approval I let her lead me to the underw

Why are older women "cougars" and older men..."lucky"?

To set my family's minds at ease I'm not a "cougar". But...I just find it damn offensive that older women who are interested or involved with younger men get labeled. And you can argue that a cougar is not a derogatory term but why don't older men who are into younger women (take that as a double entendre if you like) have a label? Why do these guys get winks and slaps on the back from their pals? I think even younger men look up to them. They're probably thinking - hey, look what's out there waiting for me when I get "old".  Too many older women get dumped by their husbands who then take up with a younger model. I know, I know - you can call it a cliche but really it got to be a cliche because it does happen so often. And isn't it downright eerie that so often these older guys literally find a younger woman who looks so like their once young wives?  Is it sex? Do these older guys want hot young babes so they can have hotter sex lives?

This is very confusing

It started this morning. I'm addicted to Masterpiece Mysteries (no wonder since I've written mystery novels for umpteen years) and this latest series is based on a Swedish mystery series that I've followed over the years. A bit of a SPOILER here if anyone is going to watch "WALLANDER" starring Kenneth Branagh. Ken has aged quite nicely. I find him quite attractive and it's admittedly part of why I watch the series although to give it its due I like dark, melancholy mysteries. So I'm watching the show and, yes, noticing how very attractive Ken is and then his father, i.e. the Wallender character's father dies. And Ken is standing at his dad's grave site and I notice the dates on the father's gravestone- mind you, this dad had looked damn old, almost decrepit - and I see he was born only eight years before me! And I start calculating in my head... OMG! Kenneth Branagh could be young enough to be my son . And that starts a flurry of names runnin
