[Jenny Gorelick] Co-Stars
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
WTF is that last name.
Fun fact, the G in Kenny G is for Gorelick. Though they don’t seem to be related.
I was hoping for a car analogy. I don't understand baseball analogies
If you have a supercharger in your engine, are you mad that it produces more horsepower than you do, or are you just happy to go fast?
Nice ! that's much clearer
Too many guys take it as a swipe at their ability to please their partner when a woman needing a vibrator typically has zero to do with his ability to get her off and everything to do with her ability to get off.
I don't even understand why this is an issue. If I get her off using a vibrator, I'm taking the W. Getting intimidated by a hunk of plastic is weird.
Some dudes are REAL insecure
I look at it like I have less work to do and she enjoys it more.
I’m not emasculated by it, and very much enjoy it. Hitachi magic wands are so much fun. Thrusting rabbits are a delight.
But….
The ones that are realistic penis replicas….
I get a bit turned off looking down and seeing a veiny flesh-colored penis in my hand. Just kinda takes me out of the moment. If I were bi, I’m sure it’d be lovely. But it’s just not for me.
There's always something for everyone and not everyone is into everything. As long as there's consent, respect for needs and boundaries, and communication, no one ever needs to feel innadequate in the bedroom.
Sometimes you just don't have time. Like, brother.. Come on.. I'm almost 40. It's not as easy to jackhammer my wife at the perfect angle for 25 straight minutes anymore. It's better for everyone, her included, if she helps rub that shit out and we can both be asleep by 10pm. We have work tomorrow, and you know our daughter's going to come pitter-pattering in here at 4:30am to say she's hungry because she couldn't be fucked to eat more than two beans and a half a chicken tender the night prior.
Alright then. You win comment of the day.
Plus if you're the type to get more satisfaction from your partner's pleasure than your own (which I'm hoping goes for everyone reading this), if toys help her come more times, why wouldn't you do it? I know I always enjoyed it more that way, SHE was the one who didn't want it too often lol

Wonder how she'd feel if instead of her needing a physical aid, it would be him needing a visual aid.
It's like, if Mia Khalifa is on your team ... Are you mad that she scored more points than you?
The nuance I feel you might be overlooking is your so-called visual aid is just someone else's hot bod (as much as it is mostly artificial) and it might signal to your partner that you don't find her physique attractive enough, whereas the use of sex toys or physical aids as you put it would be your partner's way of signaling that her pleasure is not exclusively centered on your penis or its size. Even in phallic shaped toys designed for penetration, there's always something else reputable manufacturers include, be it vibration, texture, shape, simultaneous clitoral stimulation, suction, etc. And none of these are meant to substitute your own physique and the intimacy you bring to the table (or the bed, or the couch, or the shower hehe).
I think the poster below makes a good point that toys designed for men such as fleshlights would be a more apt comparison. And the reverse for the example you provide would be something akin to needing the visual aid of Johnny Sins to get off. If we were to talk about getting off during your little lovemaking session by the chemistry and the fantasy on screen in porn - and both parties were ok with and equally excited by it -, then I'd also find no issue with that (albeit, I do think there are healthier ways to go about).
When it comes to sex, it all eventually comes down to communication and respect. And if your boundaries to feeling comfortable draw a line against using sex toys, then that's you and your partner needs to respect your feelings as well. I just feel like it's a shame if people are missing out, because their own insecurities equate a dildo or a vibrator (or whatever) to a substitute for your penis, your body, and your active role during sexy times, because they definitely are not.
If the guy has trouble reaching orgasm, sure. But in most straight relationships I'm familiar with it tends to go the other way, where the female partner needs more help to finish.
An e-bike wouldn't do much for Jonas Vingegaard, but it can be a game changer for someone who struggles with gentle hills.

So because it doesn't happen to you, it doesn't happen to anyone. Ok.
It's probably a little bit rarer than the other way around, but male anorgasmia exists especially as men get older.
But as usual, male feelings and sexual problems are ridiculed and swept under the rug as unimportant.
That is emphatically not what I said.
I was just sharing my experience since it informed the way I interpreted the joke. I think it makes sense for her to talk about using a vibrator with partners since that's probably something she has experienced.
Casting this joke as 'male feelings being ridiculed' is so strange. She's talking about her own feelings, making light of the expectations her partners have set.
It's not bigoted or mean spirited. The joke is fine.
they are different senses, doesn't really work as an analogy
a super tight fleshlight would probably work better, which can also vibrate

It works just fine. Men tend to be more visually oriented, for women the physical part is often the limiting factor to reach a climax.
In both cases something external is added to get over the other party's "inadequacies".
She took a perfectly fine point (toys can be used in sex and enrich the play)...and then formulated in a way that would indeed be off-putting to plenty of guys.
Toys should not become LeBron James of your sex, "earning more points" and leaving partner on the sideline. They should be useful assistants at reaching the peak pleasure.
As long as the point is "my partner can drive me even hornier with this" - it is super healthy and great. But when the toy itself becomes the focus, it's not great. She could masturbate much to the same success.
Comedians often take things to the extreme for comedic effect. If that were the case, the vibrator wouldn't literally be LeBron James, but maybe Karl Mslone, who is made way better with John Stockton (the vib, if it wasn't obvious) setting him up.
Too bad there's no way to know, like a community name or the person's name in the image itself...
Sure, but, while comedy can omit some nuance, this goes straight into the odd direction to begin with.
Eh, I thought it was funny. Most comedy should be assumed to be making a caricature of whatever the target is.
I respect that angle :)
Even if it was the case that the vibrator did more heavy lifting in any given encounter I certainly wouldn't want to be told in this way
I would love to listen to a female comedian that doesn't just joke about getting laid.
It's always funny to hear people who've never been part of a team speaking about team sports. Jenny thinks it's fun to pass the ball to Lebron and watch him dunk - the few minutes you're not on the bench that is 😂 It's not about just winning, it's about winning well. Joga bonito Jenny, I'd rather fuck the wall.

What are you talking about? Assists are absolutely a great feeling when playing basketball. And, for that matter, so are wide-open shots you score in plays made possible by teammates' contribution: good passing, pick setting, etc.
And I've never played at a level where alley oops are possible, but I kinda wish that I could've.
Absolutely true, but assists are just one facet of the game, even greats like Nash in basketball or Pirlo in football whose passing was what made them famous, did everything else too. Imho being able to visualize the entire court/pitch etc and to create plays requires the highest level of mastery, it's absolutely amazing to watch and the few times I was able to pull something like that off, it's a better feeling than scoring. That being said, this doesn't translate well to the sex with a vibrator scenario because it's not quite a team game. It's an inanimate fucking object that your partner prefers to you. You're not Steve Nash opening the play for your team, you're the ball boy.
No issues... Sometimes you gotta think of her sister to finish so fair is fair..
Vibrators are fine but when I whip out the premium™️ silicone vagina / asshole combo with a high speed self lubricating vortex cervix and the 36GG BIG TIDDY™️ attachment with Alexa integration I’m ruining he mood 🙄

See, men are told by movies and stories that they need to be "the hero" (singular) not "best team player" or "important helper". nope. main character or bust.
It's you're not first, you're last
Oh hell, Son, I was high that day. That doesn't make any sense at all, you can be second, third, fourth... hell you can even be fifth
