The Sunday Mirror magazine had an article about a new tv programme called Hysteria which is all about how the vibrator was invented. Apparently according to history, Hysteria was a disorder of the uterus and covered such conditions as nymphomania and frigidity. A Victorian doctor, Joseph Mortimer Granville who treated these conditions, was staying with a friend who had made an electric feather duster and was struck by how pleasurable the vibrations felt and the idea for the first electric vibrating massager was created to cure all these women.
There are pictures in the article and two of them remind me more of DIY in that one looks like an electric drill and another like a electric sander  yet they were called Flogging the Arnold Massage Vibrator, the Chick Glorifier, Fighter, Gilbert and Barker 
But thank goodness for the feather duster and I want to know where to get one  |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
There have been several books recently about this too.
There was a Channel 4 documentary that told the real story a couple of years ago.
I always maintain that men cannot be described as hysterical as they are wombless but should be called testerical. Should we be using vibrating cock rings on men instead? |
