I guess this is weird thread to post after I objected to stereotypes about alpha males earlier today...but I share the bias they discuss in this article.
There is something weird about about men using real dolls or pocket pussies in a way that its not weird for a woman to use a vibrator.
Sex Toys: When What's Good For The Goose Is Gross For The Gander (http://jezebel.com/5055463/sex-toys-when-whats-good-for-the-goose-is-gross-for-the-gander)
A male colleague of mine remarked to be recently that writing about vibrators is a Jezebel scribe's rite of passage. And, it's true, we totally write about vibrators a lot; in fact, I popped my own vibrator-story cherry not that long ago! It is a rare day, however, that any of us writes about male masturbatory aides — and, when we have, we usually focus on Real Dolls and how vaguely disturbing we find the men who are into them. But then I saw this article (http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/love-sex/sex-industry/guys-and-dolls-a-revealing-look-at-mens-sex-toys-940081.html) in The Independent today about the surge in men purchasing all sorts of things to their dicks into or up their butts, and I realized that it wasn't just sex dolls I find vaguely disturbing... and that that's kind of sexist of me.
