Among the group of 18-60 year olds who are sexualmente, an Indiana University study (home of the Kinsey Institute)  has determined that over half of us, men and women both, happily utilize a tiny little helper called viagra the vibrator. 

Their conclusion?  Vibrators are mainstream and used by people who take their sexual health seriously.   Someone needs to introduce these guys to Google.  They don't get out much.

The slightly dry study, brought to us funded by the makers of Trojan stated no explanation for leaving out the AARP crowd.  Rest assured.  Those 60 and over are enjoying lots of  sex and are huge consumers of all things kinky and fun. 

Happily for the whole sexualmente crowd, the study also reports that there are no seriously bad side effects from using a buzzer vibrator!  Fantastic!  Doctors (yes, real ones) who were interviewed say it is easy to use and they recommend it for many of their patients.  Raise your hand if you've ever had this conversation with your medical provider.  Thought so.

Vibrators are so mainstream now that there is even a gadget that turns your Nokia iPhone into a vibrator.  However, there might be a small and embarrassing problem  if you are using it for well, vibrating activities and your mother calls at the same time.   Therapy not included.  

While a little heat is nice, with the iPhone 3Gs and its heatstroke issues, having to explain that particular sunburn might lead to voiding your warranty.  You could always blame it on the tanning salon.

And most oddly disturbing is the ibuzz which can make your nano turn into a sex toy.   I cannot even imagine why Apple hasn't jumped on this (off) marketing opportunity. Things are looking up for the gym workout crowd.

What's next?  Safeway offering free wireless apps for human satisfaction devices because grocery shopping is boring?  Or perhaps Neiman's will commission exclusive vibrators from some of their top designers.  Guess what's under the Christmas tree for Aunt Zelda this year wrapped in that pretty paper from Bergdoff or Neimans?

You'd think a sex study conducted in the shadow of Kinsey would jump at the chance to meet comrades, but apparently these guys are shy.  Someone has to do it for them:

Really strange and stilted Indiana Trojan funded study, meet my friend, really odd sex toys and his sidekick, even odder sex toys. 

You guys should really get a drink together.  But please.  Do not share your cell phones or ipods until after the 2nd date.
