When women talk about their vibrator, or pregnancy test... do you think "ew"?

Asked by NewZen (3502points) November 25th, 2009

Sorry, ladies, but whenever it’s discussed here, in RL or on TV – it’s always so casual, like: oh look at my preg. test – it’s negative. Or, I found my vibrator in the driveway.

Ladies: we know where they’ve been and it shouldn’t be touched and passed around. Sheesh – we don’t even shake hands anymore for fear of H1N1 and yet women casually pass around preg. tests and vibrators.

I’m not a prude, and in the privacy of my home I don’t mind it – but in public – or nonchalantly – WTF?

Or is it just me?

Yeah….major ew… >.<

I’m sure being gay has something to do with it, though. :)

Do you mean just talking about it, or actually touching/ passing around the items? Big difference.

NewZen's avatar

@Haleth Passing it around, as in wanna see the results – or – hold my vibrator while I look through my purse.

Haha In gym the other day this girl was talking about her vibrator she’s like “yeaaaaa I have a puple vibratorrrrr” It was so awkward after the the boys seemed attracted to what she said but the girls were a little turned off. But the kicker is she shares the vibrator…nbd

Not generally, i tend not to over react to stuff of an abject nature. Sure it’s a bit unpleasant, i tend to repulsed more by people who get all offended by the physical unpleasantries of life, like their shit don’t stink.

How did I get brought into this?? No one has ever touched my vibrator but me! I can’t help it I lost it but that doesn’t mean I just let people “pass it around”!

I’m more “ew” when men talk about their vibrators or pregnancy tests.

Haleth's avatar

@NewZen I’ve never seen women do this in real life, but I have seen guys leave out “the sock” and be casual about it.

@sjmc1989 How did it get in the driveway in the first place???

NewZen's avatar

To clarify: the human body, especially the woman’s is beautiful. While scatological humour evades me, I am not prissy or prude when it comes to things that have been stuck into the various downstairs orifices.

I simply do not think they should be discussed casually – and certainly not passed around. It was in your vagina for god’s sake. It should be washed and kept in a dustfree place in the privacy of the home. And the damn vibrator, too.

Said to no-one specifically.

I’ve never heard of women passing around a vibrator in the way you are describing. If they really are doing that it’s kinda nasty… what if guys walked around talking about pocket .. um.. toys? Gross right?

I have heard a lot of chatter about vibrators, but I have never known anyone who carried one in their purse or passed it around in show and tell!!!

I have no experience with pregnancy tests but since they involve urine, I can’t imagine passing that around either.

What kind of women are you hanging with @NewZen ???

sjmc1989's avatar

@jbfletcherfan I have no idea but I can assure everyone that it wasn’t because I told my friend to hold it for me while I put the bags in the car! Weird things like this happen to me a lot and are completely unexplainable.

@NewZen I just wanted to clarify that it is a private thing for me and I just mentioned that because it pertained to the question,

edit: FYI I threw that vibrator away and got a new one god knows what it had on it after that!

@sjmc1989—That’s twice you are referring to something. I am not talking about someone specific. I am talking about pregnancy tests and or vibrators. Sorry if you’ve taken offense – none was intended. And there is no such thing as privacy in a thread. Any thread. Or anywhere in a public forum on line for that matter. But I really wasn’t talking about you – or anyone – it was something I saw on TV – for teens actually, about the pregnancy test passed to the people to show them it was negative. Hey – you just peed on it – why are you passing it around???!!!

sjmc1989's avatar

@NewZen I’m not offended at all I just read the vibrator in the driveway thing and guessed it was about me I don’t mind you are free to ask any question you want.

NewZen's avatar

@sjmc1989 So pass me your vibrator for a second – I have a sore neck.

sjmc1989's avatar

@NewZen Ooh I just lurve you! I do have a different one just for that purpose how about I pass you that one?

jbfletcherfan's avatar

There’s vibrators, & then there’s VIBRATORS!!!!!!! ;-)

sjmc1989's avatar

And to answer your question further I did have a friend that took pictures of her positive pregnacy test various ones with the bf holding it, her holding it ect. and posted it on her facebook I thought that was a little bizare and not something I would personally do.

NewZen's avatar

Facebook is the greatest evil of the 21st century.

LC_Beta's avatar

No, it doesn’t make me think “ew” in any way. And the only vibrators that have ever been passed around to me have been unused display models.

NewZen's avatar

I’m listening to Cohen sing Hallelujah so nothing will spoil my mood. Not even a yucky pregnancy test.

Jude's avatar

Never in my life have I heard of anyone passing a vibrator around. Wtf? Odd question. Most ladies give ‘er a good washing and tuck it away.

Gotta admit, I agree with @mammal. There’s a first time for everything.

hungryhungryhortence's avatar

I’ve never heard of women doing this.

Jude's avatar

I hate this question.

Brenna_o's avatar

Never even heard this in public or in private.. But… EEEEWWWW!!!
Why would you even carry a vibrator around anyway?!? Yuck! I got disguisted just reading it lol..

augustlan's avatar

I have no issue whatsoever with people talking about such things… but passing it around? Who does that?

trailsillustrated's avatar

yes I do think ewwww. and ewwwwww. ewwwwww ewwwwwwwww

faye's avatar

Those subjects are women only subjects in my mind. And worse to me is women talking about menstruation in a group with men. Nor do I want to hear about how good anyone bodily functions work! Or about unusual piercings-sooo many things ought to be more private.

Fernspider's avatar

Vibrators!? WTF? Lol, I am yet to meet a person who carries one around with them OR lets people touch it when not in sexual setting.

Buttplugs on the other hand…

LOL

ItalianPrincess1217's avatar

The only person I would feel comfortable passing my vibrator or pregnancy test to is my fiancĂ©. I’m guessing nobody else would be very interested in touching anything I have peed on or inserted into my lady bits.

Pregnancy test? Why would men find their own supply of sperm “ew” when one of their tiny critters may have actually penetrated the zona pellucida?
