    Default Ladies Check your Vibrators, for your health, Cancer risk, seriously...

    far be it from me to ever discourage the use sex toys (I'm a freak like that r but found this online and might be something you wanna look into with your model of choice.

    If you do might as well post the results of your safety search in here as it seem like you guys trade tips on what models to by, and I want you getting off, not cancer!

    Vibrators withdrawn over cancer danger

    Danish sex shops have been ordered to take many vibrators off their shelves over a cancer risk.

    A survey found 10 out of every 13 vibrators being sold contained too much cadmium, which is considered a cancer-causing substance.

    Officials say the cadmium causes environmental health risks if the products are not disposed of properly.

    According to Danish law, the sex toys should not have more than 75 mg of cadmium per kilo of vibrator.

    One of the products, called Penetration Pleasures, was found to contain 483 mg per kilo in research conducted by the Environment and Energy Department.

    Sex shops have been directed to withdraw vibrators containing too much cadmium from their shelves by June 18, reports Danish newspaper Berlingske Tidene.

    Just upgrade to the hitachi wands They are built better, last longer and don't contain all the cadmium (it plugs in instead of using batteries). Besides, it is a lot easier to tell people it is your back massager if someone stumbles across it, lol.

    after all these years of women using vibrators...now all of a sudden they're a health risk...

    if i was one that had to have sex...and the only choices were a vibrator or a man...the vibrator would win...hands down...

    i'd rather take my chances with a battery operated vibrator...than a 'man'...don't have to worry about being lied to or cheated on...with a vibrator...
    Why do some people still have to fight...to get the same opportunities...that are given to others??...

    Look out for self...because noone else will...AND
    The greatest revenge in the world...is success...

    Reclusivness...is a good thing.

    cadmium is also found in silver solder in addition to the rechageable batteries.

    My personal guess (with no evidence other than history) is that there is a competing vibrator company who is either owned by Danes or employs Danes. Artifical "standards" are a common trade practice in Europe to keep out imports unless the correct political palms have been crossed with a suitable number of Euros.

    I would love to be a fly on the wall when the WTO takes up the case in the other manufacturer sues. If the company happens to be American (and I do not know if it is) the obvious items to be relatiated against are Danish hams and baby-back ribs. Believe it or not but Danish BBR are considered the best in the world. It apparently has something to do with the material they graze on.

    Heh.. I remember seeing a whole "Real Sex" episode dedicated to the glass ones. To be honest, I'm afraid of them. They can say they're durable and tough, but can you imagine if it cracked or split while in use? Ouchy!

    :
    I can understand a psychological concern about the use of glass in such a setting but it is unfounded since it is tempered glass which is exceptionally strong. Remember glass is chemically a crystal and the only way to break a crystal is to focus all the force at a stress point. The only way to exert that kind of pressure on say an inch and a half diameter SOLID object would put so much pressure on the other end of it that it would rip your hoohah off. Remember the winshield of your car is about a sixth or eighth of this thickness and you can sit on a car windshield.

    PS Any female who could exert that much pressure with the muscles of her privates is one person I would not want to meet in a dark alley. Such an individual would need to engage such a device because they would have to look like King Kong on PCP.

    LOL Monty.. I'm aware that they're durable and stuff, but the idea of putting GLASS up there, is very scary.. haha.. I couldn't ever do it, just because I'd worry too much, regardless of how safe it is.

    And can you imagine if it was faulty to begin with, and had a crack in it and the woman didn't notice it? Yowza.

    I feel really bad for the females they must've tested it on, that's all I gotta say.. lmfao

    There is no frekin way that I am giving up my toys! Cadmium or not I am goin to take the risk. I could never do that to my poor rabbit and his friends. And girls my friend has a glass dildo and swears by it! She even suggested putting it in the freezer for a while before using it for an added sensation.

    LMAO....hey didn't one Real Sex episode show the women testing the glass ones out? They sure didn't seem to mind one bit! I DEFINITELY like the idea of being able to heat them up or chill them--that sounds like FUN!!!! To bad they are freakin' expensive.

    The electric thingy I was trying (without much sucess) to explain looked like a normal vibrator but it was glass and you know those things at Spencer Gifts that have the electricity inside of them and when you touch the orb, the electricity goes to where your hand is? It's like that (lol on a much smaller scale). But these girls put them down below and the electricity would hit the spot and give them a zap.
    Anyway, the glass ones are super expensive. But from what I understand, well worth it
    Whoever mentioned the rabbit - yes, those are awesome. I love mine and wouldn't part with it unless they PROVED you could get cancer from it. Even then....?????

    But you have trusted the same material (tempered glass) in a much weaker structure to put up your babies' bum!! A "mother's willingness" should be a powerful indicator of trust.

    first of all you can get cancer from putting a penis in there too. but like Topaz said, you know where your vibe has been....

    and a thermometer isnt getting jabed about harshly for very long amounts of time. it is placed, not shoved or pushed, in the mouth then just sits there for a minute.

    besides... who uses those old fashioned things anyway? give me digital.
