Inspired by @Jess-Harlots recent post about the use of sex toys in the bedroom I thought about the evolution of sex toys over the centuries - let's face it, sex
toys are as old as the human race..........and as unique.

Let's start with the Ancient Greek bread dildo......

or the steam-powered Manipulator of the early 19th century - a rather scary looking device if you ask me .......

and not to forget the hand powered hand-crank vibrator of the late 19th early 20th century.

Times definitely have moved on since then.
However I did find an interesting link to Sex toys: A Brief History for everybody who likes to read and see a bit more how sex toys have evolved over time.

The sex toys dating back 28,000 years: Ancient phalluses made from stone and dried camel dung started trend for sex aids​

  • A siltstone phallus found in Germany is said to date back 28,000 years
  • It is quoted as being the oldest known 'sex toy' ever discovered
  • Phalluses made from stone, wood, leather and even camel dung have all been found during excavations, or referenced in historical text and images
  • The Wellcome Collection has a number of sexual artefacts on display as part of its Institute of Sexology exhibition.

A 7.8-inch (20cm) long, 1.1-inch (3cm) wide stone object (pictured) was found in the Hohle Fels Cave near Ulm in the Swabian Jura. The prehistoric ‘tool’ is made from 14 fragments of siltstone and dates back 28,000 years. Due to its size, experts believe it may be the earliest example of a sex aid ever found

From bread dildos to steam-powered machines, it's fascinating to see how far sex toys have come. The evolution really shows how much society and technology have shifted over time. Definitely worth a read on the history behind it all! ☺️
