What age did you receive your first sex toy?

18-21 went to a sex store with the girls and never looked back!!

I think I was about 17 and my best friend bought it for me for Christmas. Boy was I surprised when I opened the box....

I put "someone bought it for me", but I actually won it. When I was a freshman, my university had a seminar on safe sex, and at the end there was a pop-quiz on the information presented. Some people were too shy to raise their hands and shout out the answers, but I really really wanted that bullet vibe sitting on the prize table, so I overcame my shyness and shouted out some answer about dental dams. I still have that vibe, but don't use it much because it takes watch batteries and isn't as much fun during partner sex.

I bought my first toy after I was 18, but the first thing I used as a toy was something a boyfriend had given me. It was a bear or rabbit or something that you pulled a string and it vibrated. I had a lot of fun with that thing.

I think I was 20 when I got my first toy. You have to be 18 in NC to even walk in a store. Never went back this summer the hubbs and I got curious and decided to try some things out. I'm 27 now he's 30 he had his toy cherry popped this summer too....LOL

I am in NC, and I went into an Adam and Eve store when I was 17.
I kind of doubt they would actually card you. People are nervous enough just to enter.

I'm having a good time reading all your posts. Since I didn't get my first toy until I was, well, OLD.... Do you all think that it is common for young people these days to have toys? I can assure you that back in the day, no one I knew had a sex toy LOL.

I was under 18, and I had my mum buy it for me from the Bondage.com online shop. I was actually purchasing a joke gift of a vibrator for a friend's mum, and my mum got that, one for the friend and one for me. The one for me was broken on arrival (that shop is crap), so I absconded with the one I got for my friend... That one broke after a year, and by then I could purchase them myself.

THE DAY I TURNED 18! at MIDNITE! i got out my card and orderded my first fleshjack i had been saving for, for 6 months!

I think I was 17, my boyfriend at the time and I bought one from Spencers to try and spice things up. I'm about 22 now and just starting to get into something more complicated than a bullet on a remote, lol

it was a whim between my ex and I. We went out and got the Cal. Exotics' Bumblebee. It wasn't my first exposure to sex toys, but my first use at least.

I've got lots to look forward to, then! I bought a plain-old-non-descript vibe from Spencer's when I was 25 (my husband was with me, and he was just 'amused' - lazy bastard was relieved that I wouldn't be asking him about sex anymore). The vibrating part died about four years later, but it was still serviceable. The case finally cracked a few weeks ago, and I'm looking to find my next (real) toy here at EF.

The age around here in Florida is 18, I know, as I once went to Fairvilla (the local sex shop) with several friends once (I was 28) and we got carded at the door.

I think I was the oldest of the group, and I was the one who was completely AMAZED at what was offered. I really wanted to spend the rest of the evening there just READING all the packaging, but everyone else got bored and wanted to leave after about a half hour. I've yet to go up there again, but my boyfriend hinted that we might take a trip to get me something.

Incidentally, while doing a few cross country trips, I made the funniest discovery in the world - the so-called Bible Belt has the most sex shops advertised per mile in the US. Missouri wins the honor - big surprise. All those 'repressed states' are full of nothing but perverts. LOL

My late husband got it for me a few days before my 18th birthday. He is passed now, but I get me a new one every year to continue the tradition.

Sad, but true. At age 47 I bought my first toy. Now I love them. Why didn't I buy one in my 20's? If I had only known.

I was 21, pretty much just a week or two before I turned 22 :p sex toy shops aren't quite popular here in my country ;/ boohoo.

I was about 14, and it was a Venus Penis, followed soon after by a banana shaped vibe, lol! I didn't even realize that there were age restrictions on such things, and I used my own bank card linked to my checking account to buy it!

I was in my 20's, getting a pHd (it involved a lot of chemistry, that's why I spell it that way) in metallic arts. I was shopping for things to caste in broze to add to my sculptures. I went to a religous supply store and got a lot of crucifixes, maddonnas, rosaries, ets, a store owned by Ukranians for Russian and Ukranian stuff and help with patterns I would put into the metal , and a porn gift emporium for things I could cast. a plexiglass supply store, a few punk shopds (Rivethead, Skinz, Commander Salamander)the hardware supply for wood, etc, Hagstoz for metal, flux, cadmium, etc (I carried a glock in my pants waist band when I went to jewelers row or worked on Arch Street tattooin). I made lots of art that would be both biographical and archeological. I also made armor for urban settings that form fit my body, cast my teeth and put them in a small miniature coffin I made and laquered so people could open and sort through the contents and assume and fantazie about my life. I had a "shock and awe" gallery opening befor the term was coined. I had made my own bronze and copper buckets filled with pysanky eggs and religous Icons I made. I hade cast a lunch box and french ticklers and cast sex toys and soldered them on.

The show was very controversial "The Indentity Kit". The thesis was well written, my speech, delivered in black leather from head to toe was excellent. I was considered to scary and controversial to ever become a professer, and not a good influence on young, influential minds.

But that was my world as I saw it. I'd been raised religiously in the Russian Orthodox Church, and by my late 20's I lived near massage parlors, carried a gun for protection, had watched junkies shoot up on my step, had watched hookers from my window, had come back from 3 years as a combat medic, and had my best friend killed by cops and my art later confiscated by them. That was my world. That was brutally reflected in my art. You were not going to get pristine jewelery from me...

I bought sex toys to incorporat into art,

I was 19. it was a shiny blue hard plastic thing that had a g-spot curve in the tip,never hit my g-spot and all the paint was chipped off within a month or useing it (thank goodness i used condoms with it!) i would LOVE more toys i have several cock rings,countless bullets,a feeldoe,a p-spot massager (for him but ive been the one to us it XD) some anal beads,a taffy tickler,and a probe. with income taxes this year i bought a trixbelle plug and fox tail from liberator(waiting for it to arrive still) anda few basic plugs to go along with it.

I was 23 and my boyfriend bought a clitoral vibrator as a gift - my very first sex toy was very simple and I loved it!

My guy bought me a little pink vibrator for our camping trip. I am so addicted to toys now its not even funny
