talking her out of it

Has she had a rabbit before?

yes she has had a rabbit. i think it was a basic rabbit from doc johnson

I can tell you now...I would never pay that kind of money for a jelly anything. You can find better vibes for cheaper. Here is a small comparison: link

I had a Jelly rabbit...don't do it. Just don't. Go for silicone and she'll love you for it.

I would never spend that much on a jelly toy. But then I wouldn't buy jelly full stop!

I wouldn't spend that much money on a jelly rabbit. The jelly degrades, and depending upon what type of jelly it is, it could irritate your girlfriend's bit. (If that isn't a deterrent, I don't know what would be.)

I'd much more highly recommend getting a silicone-material rabbit:

Not all of them have the rotational head like it looks like she wants, but the FunFactory Paul and Paulina does (including a g-spot curve!)

I agree with the Paul and Paulina thing...it is WAY more cost effective ($112 for a freaking JELLY vibe is insane...DON'T DO IT), this one's silicone, has a g-spot curve, has ribbing...AND? It's freaking Fun Factory...which makes a more reliable toy than Cal Exotics (sorry...they do though).

Plus one other detail. Jelly smells HORRIBLE! You can't tell by looking at the picture. The one jelly toy I had I kept wrapped in plastic at the other end of the room and I could still smell it. I had to toss it.

I agree that it's just WAY too much money for jelly. It won't last. If she's set on that super soft girthy realistic shaft, I can recommend this one (when it comes back into stock) link It's rubber so it's not much better than jelly, but will last longer, stink less, and has a much lower pricetag. If she's willing to give up some of the girth, especially in exchange for power and material quality, this one is awesome link. It's strong and soft and bendy and just an all around good quality toy.

I disagree - if there is anything I've learned in 21+ years of marriage - it's that when a woman knows what she wants, go for it. It takes all the pressure off you.

What are you going to say when you buy something similar - it's cheaper - but she decides she doesn't like it (probably because you didn't buy what she asked for).

This isn't about jelly vs. silicone or anything rational. This is about what she wants - show her your not a cheap-skate & spend the money!

For that price you can get her a Magic Wand and a silicone cap. Stronger, easier to clean and much more powerful (no dead battery problem either).

Instead of "talking her out of it" talk to her and find out what she likes, then find a better option (and there are many - $112 for a jelly rabbit is absurd).

I've never owned a jelly toy, because I've done enough research to know that the material isn't safe or sanitary. Various reviewers can tell you that it smells bad, breaks down, and harbors germs like crazy, among other things. Many jelly toys also contain phthalates, controversial plastic-softeners that have been banned in some areas (especially Europe) in children's toys.

I own the elastomer version of the Rabbit Habit. It works great for me, is phthalate-free, and is made of a better overall material. I would highly recommend it, especially since it costs a lot less than the one your GF is looking at. I swear by silicone, and most top-of-the-line silicone toys don't cost $112. They'll also last forever and can be boiled and run through the dishwasher, but there aren't too many proven silicone rabbits out there. If there are, I'd love to hear about them.

If your GF absolutely has to have this toy, make sure that you at least give her some information on phthalates and how to care for jelly toys:

Eden info on caring for jelly toys

Personally, I don't even look at jelly toys and I sure wouldn't spend that much on one. However, that being said, I totally agree with Gunsmoke. If this is what she wants, then I see no reason to try to talk her out of it.

Here's my advice: you have an account here, so save up your Eden Points, and get yourself a promotional code. Right now, there is a code for Valentine's Day that will give you 35% off. Between all of that, you should be able to get it down to a more reasonable out-of-pocket cost. Then, if your gf ends up not liking the toy she only has herself to blame. And we all need a safety net on those kinds of things!

oh wow. i did not know jelly wears out. thanks for the info.

My Boyfriend just bought me this toy, a little hint, search amazon.com in health and personal care. Same exact toy, but a bit more cost effective.

I thought about this toy day and night. It was the thrusting action I wanted. I bought it. It was very expensive too. Got it, used it, hated it. It was one of the biggest toy mistakes I have ever made! Poor materials, poor craftsmanship, poor thrusting action, pretty much poor on every level. Poor me! Out over $100!

Don't let her get a jelly toy. Ever. It's not worth it. I'm sure you can find one made of silicone for less.

I ended up not talking her out of it. I found one cheap on amazon and got it for her. Turns out she doesn't like it, and it broke pretty quickly. Thankfully I didn't pay much for it off amazon so it wasn't as heartbreaking on my wallet. All I told her was -I told you so!
