So let's say you bought your friend a sex toy...

I'd leave it in the original box and give it to her in private. Actually, what I'm more likely to do is just have it shipped to her house. (And give her a heads up that a gift I ordered her was coming.)

it always depends on how open the friend is about these sorts of things. i wouldnt' purposefully gift a sex toy to a friend in front of others unless it was, say, a sex party or something.

I've thought about doing this. I considered just having it mailed to me, wrapping it, maybe throw together a gift box of things, then mail it to her. Or wrap it and tell her to open it in private.

I don't really want it to be shared knowledged unless everyone around is also sex-positive.

Leave it wrapped (for sanitary reasons), and tell her to open it in private.

Either tell her to open it in private or put the original package in another discreet box (and tell her to open it in private).

This situation is likely to happen to me in the near future. I'll be wrapping it up in the original packaging and then giving it to her in private.

I'd put the box in a second box if it needed to be really discreet, but mostly just tell her to open it alone.

I find it hard to imagine myself giving someone a sex toy... but if someone were to give ME a sex toy, I'd want them to leave it in the original packaging, and to give it to me in private, so that's what I'd do if I were the giver.

I have done this. I bought my then pregnant friend a vibrator (she's 27 just for the record). She's no longer pregnant but I had taken it out of it's actual box and put it in a box for cigerrate papers to hide it, and wrapped it. I also wrote on teh back of the box to open in private because her family would have hated me for sending her a toy and they would have hated her.
So we kept it as discreet as we could. They really did think I sent her cigeratte papers X'D.

I've already done this w/ 2 friends - wrapped it well, and warned them to open it in private. they both love their toy. I've enjoyed asking them about their escapades w/ the toy & neither will share - darn. lol!

I think it would partially depend on the person. I have some friends who live fairly discreet lives and wouldn't want to open something naughty at a party. Other friends wouldn't mind. Some friends I wouldn't buy a toy for at allllllll

Kind of depends on what the occasion was. I'd probably go with wrapping it if I could hand it over discretely in person, or I'd give my friend a heads up and have it shipped

You'd want to disguise it. I've had toys opened by my family by accident... now there's a mess...

I'd leave it in its original packaging, but wrap it up and give it to them once we're alone. Partly so that I don't have to touch their toy, and partly so that they'll have the packaging in case it's defective, or they simply decide they'd like to see more toys from that brand.

Depends on the friend! Of course I wouldn't buy a toy for a friend unless they explicitly started that that'd be okay with them and told me what they were looking for. But I wouldn't take it out of the package, I'd just tell them to open it in private. Half the fun would be laughing at the really cheesy packaging, anyways!

I would wrap it as is.. & have her open it in private with just me.. or if she doesn't want to open it around me.. then I'd just tell them to make sure no one is around.
