Chibi Usagi The Movie

I long while ago opn a CuSeemee reflector I got first look at a rabbit vibrator. I thought surely them pointy thingys hurt up against there right?!? But I was so wrong.

Female orgasms wander through the news media like the Loch Ness monster, glimpsed now and then, but never quite surfacing. Now we have two more sightings, thanks to the latest book by Fay Weldon and a new film about the Rabbit vibrator. In What Makes Women Happy? Weldon recommends that a good woman should fake her orgasms “and then leap out of bed and pour him champagne, telling him: ‘You are so clever’. ”

Meanwhile, the new film, Rabbit Fever (in which I make a cameo appearance), launches next week, purporting to tell the story of the sex toy’s rise and its tendency to create orgasm addicts. What is it about the female orgasm nowadays? The O-word itself is horrid and its meaning is confused; the root is the Greek word for tumescence or engorgement, not for the spasm that invariably accompanies ejaculation in the male, of which something similar can be produced in the female, but less reliably and with rather more effort. Candles and carrots used to be credited with more potency in triggering female orgasm than the male member but the march of technology has produced a purpose-made pleasure-tool, namely the vibrator, of which the market leader is the Rabbit.
