![]() While we’re not sure exactly why vibration can feel so damn good, Ligon says that that blood flow has something to do with it: “When the clit is aroused, it swells with blood much like a penis - they’re analogous parts - and the increased surface area exposes more nerve endings.” “Applying vibration to the clit, or anywhere else on the body, does not cause desensitization,” Ligon says firmly. For answers, I turned to Zoë Ligon, sex educator and founder of sex-positive toy store Spectrum Boutique, and Vanessa Marin, a sex therapist who teaches the online course Finishing School to guide users to their first orgasms. My dedication to vibration did leave me with questions though: What is the effect of prolonged vibrator use, both over a single session and over years? Could it make it harder for me to orgasm in other ways, or lead me to need more stimulation to feel the same amount of sensation. (I’ve thankfully graduated from AA batteries to wall chargers since age 17.) As capable as I might be, I can’t deliver 2,700 to 6,300 vibrations a minute to my 8,000 clitoral nerve endings without the help of a Magic Wand, and as long as mine is charged, it plays a starring role in my solo sex life. At 17, I bought my first vibrator - a plastic, neon pink model I plucked from the shelves of my sketchy hometown porn shop as my friend and I struggled to contain our laughter - and I’ve barely masturbated without one since.
