Tickle and tease me vibe - massager discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by Nicole

Last night, I decided to take on the daunting (yet somehow tedious) task of having an orgasm solely with one toy, with clitoral stimulation. This was a solo mission, I wouldn't dare ask anybody to venture climbing such difficult cliffs. In short, this is my hour-long battle with a curvy purple lady named Tickle & Tease Me|Tickle and tease me vibe.

The day started out like any other, a seemingly endless day at work, a closely similar endless drive home, kicking off my shoes, and heading to my room to collapse on my bed. But not yesterday. Yesterday, there was a big white box on my bed. Not even looking at who had sent it, I irritably opened up the package, ripping the tape with a vengeance - and to my surprise, there was a neatly packed package inside. The case that the vibe came in wasn't bad. No huge naked women busting out in costumes, showing off their impenetrable and perfect vaginas all over the place. It had big, pillowy soft text all over the package, and the toy slid right out. More enthusiastic at this point, I decided I should spend a little time trying to "feel" the toy, get an idea of what it would be like. My conclusions: it has a soft texture (not really "velvety," as described), it has really subdued curves, giving it a nice grip. Overall, I was impressed so far. But alas - it needs batteries.

I find them and hurry back to my room. I put the batteries in and test the three different levels that this toy claims to have. I mess around with them, and while the levels are desirable, I have one complaint: it's a push button. So you can't just turn the thing off if you need to. You have to go through all three levels, and THEN it turns off. A little annoying, but only a slight nuisance. On the other hand, it completely makes up for the rest by being completely quiet. Maybe not silent, but if you were just to turn it on, I doubt anybody could hear it through the door.

I wait a little while, and then get down to business. Lying down, I'm ready - I lay the curved, thick tip of the vibrator on my chest, turn it on the first level, and slowly try to move it down my body, to try and add some self-romance in the situation. It doesn't end up working, and really just tickles like hell. So, I stop trying foreplay, and move onto the good stuff - hardcore, down and dirty self-medication. The curved tip of the toy was aesthetically pleasing, and is now proving to be just as good as I had hoped. So, I spend about fifteen minutes moving across the levels, trying different positions, all that fun stuff - when I come to the realization that my vagina is... numb. Just numb. So, I take a break and about ten minutes later I get moving again - and I basically just kept following that pattern for an hour.

I have hope for this toy.

I didn't get to go in-depth as I would have liked with my original review, but here's what I've found over the last month or so:

  - it keeps a long battery life
  - you get used to stealthily "switching" the levels
  - it's still a bit numbing

All in all, the toy has held up very well, and it's going to be a fairly well-used part of my collection, but only as a foreplay tool or a pre-requisite to masturbation. The reason is because the vibrations are too strong for me to keep on for more than five minutes MAX, but if you enjoy the stronger vibrations this is definitely for you.

Note: No, it is NOT meant for penetration. I wish it were, because it has a nice shape, but the top part cannot be removed, and therefore cannot be cleaned :(

Anyways, good luck ladies!
