Downtown was buzzing with excitement yesterday for the prospect of free vibrators. Trojan announced that it would be distributing 10,000 Tri-Phoria and The Pulse devices — $40 and $30 retail values, respectively! — from two hot dog carts in different neighborhoods throughout the day, so New Yorkers lined the streets of the planned locations in anticipation.

Most people left disappointed, though, because a City Hall rep stopped the popular condom brand from delivering the goods shortly after they set up shop.

Citizens were not shy to express their frustration with the city’s interruption to media on the scene. “There’s a lot more important things the city should be worried about than a free-vibrator giveaway,” bar owner Melody Henry told New York Post. “Bloomberg doesn’t want anyone to have fun. You can’t have a giant soda. You can’t have a vibrator.”

When people think of vibrators, they generally think of the Rabbit. A giant vibrating penis that single women use to get themselves off or that guys are intimidated by. But times are a changing.

Now a vibrating cock ring might freak some guys out, but if you’re up for a little adventure a cock ring can double your pleasure. The Mio Cock Ring can be used in and out of water which is nice because sometimes trying to hit all the right angles in a bathtub can be easier said than done, especially if you’re 5’1 and your partner is 6’2. Not only does your clitoris get stimulated, he gets a little buzz too. You know what they say, double the pleasure, double the fun!

The Club Vibe

This one is my personal fave and as far as I’m concerned sheer genius. The Club Vibe features two pieces; a piece that fits in the woman’s panties while the other piece is a remote control that her partner gets to keep. One can wear the vibrator anywhere; to a park, to a restaurant, to a party, or of course a club. It works one of two ways depending on which setting you choose. It either reacts to the music or to the remote control. Not knowing when your partner might decide to get you off can be deliciously entertaining; especially if you just happen to be in public. As long as you keep it a
