I Heart Hitachi

September 21, 2007 · 2 Comments

I don’t have a bin full of toys but I do have what I consider to be the best vibrator on the planet. It’s called the Hitachi Magic Wand. It’s considered a “personal massager,” like you might use on your neck or another tense body part. It’s kind of expensive too. I think my ex paid around $60 for it. I call it the Cadillac of Vibrators.

It’s almost hard to quantify why this “massager” is so much better than anything else I’ve tried. It’s electric so there’s no worry about batteries. It doesn’t look like a dildo unless you use the set of attachments, sold separately. I can hold onto the handle without it vibrating my hand numb. It’s a solid piece of Japanese machinery that’s lasted me a good five years and counting. Beyond all of that though, the vibration it gives off is somehow perfect. There are two speeds but I always stay on the lower one. I can pretty much go from zero to boom in less than sixty seconds. It’s incredible and I never cease to be amazed by it.

I suppose the downside is that it doesn’t look sexy. It’s a white cylinder with a big knob on the end. Happily, I really don’t care what it looks like. It does the job like a trooper (not that I’ve ever banged a trooper)! I have a set of dildo attachments for it by I haven’t used them in years. I think my ex actually has them now (he bought his own Hitachi).

Oh yes, this thing works on men too! I use it for clitoral stimulation, he sets it lightly against his dick. You can also use it with someone else for face to face mutual masturbation. That can be pretty fun. I’ve never tried it with another girl but I’m sure it would be entertaining.

Anyway, you can buy it at most sex toy shops and at various places online. I recommend Toys in Babeland or Good Vibrations. They’re both very sex and women-positive stores, located in Seattle and San Francisco respectively. The Good Vibrations Web site is a thing of beauty. They’re great about catering to the Queer community as well.

I’m expounding on my love for this device because until about half an hour ago, I hadn’t used it in several weeks. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. I heart my Hitachi!
