Who Knew the D Stood for “Dildo”? 3D Printers Could Change the Way You Get Off

Now that we have our feet deeply planted in the twenty-first century, it's only natural that sex toys evolve and adapt to the new technologies we have at our perverted disposal. The days of humping a heated up cantaloupe (only God can judge me) or inserting various phallic-shaped items into yourself are gone. Vibrating objects are now being sold at your local superstore, next to a wide array of condoms and lube. We're living in great times! But as I wrote about this week, people still have a hang up about buying condoms, especially women, so what if the shy and bashful could make their own sex toys at home using a 3D printer?

Your Tango recently wrote an article that briefly pondered the titillating implications behind the invention of the 3D printer and how the technology could inherently change the way we purchase sex toys. Would it put an end to the overpriced sex toy business? If you had a 3D printer, would you craft your own sex toy? Heck, I'd give it a go. I'd make a 3D printing of Natascha Haack and turn it into a hump-able shrine.

While positing such important questions, the informative site also gave its readers seven tidbits about the objects we use to tingle our bits, such as dildos have been around since 23,000 BC, Cleopatra supposedly owned a solid gold dildo, people used olive oil as lube (don't they still?), Italy had dildo-making stores in the 1400s, the first vibrator was a medical instrument, the first rubber blow-up doll was advertised in 1904, and the 80's became the hey day for sex toys. Now you have seven golden nuggets to share in the break room today.
