in 1917, there were more *****rs in American households than toasters?!
While the industrial revolution did not bring many improvements for women, it did lead to the creation of the vi****or. The medical “pelvic finger massage” was considered inefficient by male doctors. The ‘treatment’ was hence substituted with mechanical devices, including the electric vi****or, invented in the 1880s.
This unusual form of ‘self-help’ for female anxiety became very popular in America. According to the Erotica Museum in Barcelona, there were more vi*****rs in American households than toasters in 1917.
Talk about being ahead of the curve. 😏
