Because making lists is the kind of thing bloggers love to do, About.com's resident dirty thinker Corey Silverberg recently threw together his nominations for the "Sex Toys That Changed The World." We aren't really interested in arguing over list—worthy choices all—but we do have some of our own opinions on the subject. We're also not claiming that a sexual aid could actually change the world (although the Fleshlight may have had something to do with the cease-fire in Ireland), but they have definitely rocked their fair share and probably moved a few worlds to boot. After the jump, our previous thoughts on some of Corey's choices, as well as some our own favorite candidates from the annals of rubbery phthalate-y history.
