Few vibrators have developed a cult following as much as rabbit sex toys. They first entered the mainstream thanks to a Sex and the City episode where Charlotte loved using one so much she started canceling plans to stay home and, well, focus on herself.
But rabbit sex toys have had staying power, becoming must-haves for sex toy aficionados. These toys are also non-threatening, with their cute bunny shape, making them a good option for beginners. And then there’s the fact that they can do so much.
“These toys offer double stimulation as they can be used for internal and clitoral stimulation,” says Janet Brito, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist and sex therapist in Honolulu. There’s also a range with rabbit vibrators, with some even having rotating shafts that can go in different directions to “offer a different sensation internally,” says sex therapist Debra Laino, D.H.S.
There’s also this to consider: Rabbit sex toys are more likely to produce a blended orgasm, which is an orgasm that happens when several areas are stimulated at once, says sex therapist Jess O'Reilly, Ph.D., creator of the Sex with Dr. Jess podcast. “The internal arm of a rabbit vibe is designed to stimulate the G-zone and the external arm is designed to stimulate the external clitoral head and hood,” she explains. “Each part communicates with the brain via a distinct pathway, which crates the opportunity for a more overwhelming sensation.”
Rabbit vibrators can be used as a couple's sex toy, but they’re really best for your pleasure during solo play, says Shannon Chavez, Psy.D., K-Y’s sex therapist. “I recommend trying different positions when using a rabbit-style vibrator, as you'll want the rabbit head to come in contact with your clitoris while achieving the right amount of depth and angle with the shaft portion,” she says. “Hold the device and experiment with different hip movements to see what feels best. You can also experiment with the different vibrational patterns of the rabbit head and the shaft to maximize pleasure and lead to a blended orgasm.”
