Also inexpensive. But the one with old lady curtains flower on it is creepy.

Ahem, that should be:
"shockedandappalled(TM)"

You must give credit where due, Dan.

Also probable is that she has friends who are 18+ who could either (1) buy on for her or (2) give one to her as a gift.

That young lady is too young and innocent to have a credit card!
I'm shocked, shocked! I tell you. Oh, the obscenity.

BiCycleRider on July 28, 2010 at 12:54 PM

Hell, you can buy them at Rite Aid, so long as you don't mind that they're called "massagers."

This just in: Fingers able to be used for perversity, at any age. Conservatives suggest denying existence of fingers when dealing with anyone under 18.

Like any creative and willing teenager couldn't easily rig something that'd do the job if they were so inclined. Simply put your cellphone down the front of your jeans and repeatedly call yourself from a landline.

Good on her.

Some creepy old dude sent me a vibrator over the internet when I was 15.

Read in a Carl Cassel voice:

Those conservative news bloviators
Are upset at celeb masturbators
Yes it's true, women wank
Doesn't make them all skanks
You could do with your own new . . . .

Caller?

Was it your host, Peter Sagal?

Zrob on July 28, 2010 at 1:15 PM

I really, really hope this shows up in Bluff the Listener this week.

Zrob on July 28, 2010 at 1:17 PM

You can also buy a vibrator at Whole Foods. I am not making this up, Whole Foods Market.

Who is Taylor Momsen?

nyker on July 28, 2010 at 1:28 PM

Didn't Montgomery Ward start selling vibes back in the 19th Century, promoting it as a cure for "hysteria?" Doctors used to "manually stimulate" women who had incurable hysteria until they came out with vibes and they went into mail order catalogues--way back!? Am I dreaming this up? There's got to be someone who knows to put this in perspective.
I was an early bloomer in that dept, so I am sure Fox News would be totally sensationalized that I was pulling my wank so early on.

Also, yes 14...this is what Taylor Momsen wanted you to ask. ;)

dirac on July 28, 2010 at 1:33 PM

What does one do with a "kegel barbell"? Seriously, I'd like to know.

Timmytee on July 28, 2010 at 2:05 PM

Wait, is Dan saying that Peter Sagal is a regular slog reader? That's too cool if it's true.

@15, you're not misremembering:

You can even get one with just Internet access and that Amazon gift certificate your grandma gave you for your birthday. It's a scary world for sex-phobic commentators.

ohemgee on July 28, 2010 at 2:35 PM

This is ridiculous. I just can't believe that masturbation is news to anyone any more, cultural conservative or not. I think they're just pretending it's shocking to maintain their stance on anything related to sexual pleasure being OBSCENE.

I mean, I'd love to see this reported in some kind of real context, as in "...recently said in an interview that she owns a vibrator, and according to a recent poll, she's not alone, since about 60% of American women ages 17-22 say they own at least one personal sex toy." Or something? (And please note that I just completely made up that statistic.)

@8

Wait, there was an internet when you were 15? Crap, I'm getting old.

Or her parents could have bought it for her. I took my daughter to Babeland. (New bumpersticker, maybe?)

@9: excellent comment.
"Uh, liberal traitor? George Bush hater?
I'm sorry -- I'm really drawing a blank, here."

I love my vibrator and bought it at Walgreens. No vibrator I've bought at any sex store has managed to replace my 6 year old Walgreen's "personal massager". Love that thing!!! ;)

No ID or credit card needed.

The title of the article is:
"Is that a sex toy in your pants, or are you just glad to see me?"

Really funny!

Canuck on July 28, 2010 at 9:26 PM

@9: Beautiful. Thank you!

SRJ on July 29, 2010 at 7:21 AM

Frankly thats about the age when I bought my daughter one - beats teen pregnancy and sends the right message about sexuality
