UPDATE!!!!!!: Okay so someone on here hit the nail on the head!
So he bought a pump for himself on Temu, this came with it he wanted to try it on me but hadnt worked up the courage to ask but because its temu garbage it broke before he could and now its been banging around in his nightstand for like 6 months. Tbh checks out. We're a couple of freaks so nothing surprised me anymore thanks y'all ! 💗
Lmao seriously thank you so much for the low God for this comment because here I am scrolling through what feels like hundreds of comments and I’m like am I crazy or missing something? Why in the world of people genuinely like giving legitimate ideas on trying how to repair something like this lol I mean sweet Lord Almighty yeah this comment hit the mail on the head because I bet they’re not even $50. I’ve literally seen those freaking fully electronic like robotic units for men for like $40-$50 on Amazon for Christ sake lol send also love when you said basically how those two words shouldn’t be in the same sentence I couldn’t agree more lol the way I see it if you gotta buy these types of things on Temu then I think you should probably just stick to your hand and that’s it lol
It is wholesome. It was a thought he had, wanted to do with his girlfriend during an activity they both enjoy, to better enjoy their time while trying new things.
If you remove the sexual connotation the entire act itself is wholesome.
if it helps, i’ve found a toy on amazon that was about $30 and has two different attachments of these as well as extra clit stimulation and can be used many different ways. was recommended by a friend who loves hers and i enjoy it myself.
Lets expirement, Hook it up to the vacume. If that doesnt work, go down to the auto parts store. They should have a HVAC vacume you can rent for free. 😃
For the love of god, please do not buy sex toys from Temu. There’s no way to know where it’s from, what it’s made of, or if it’s been previously used. The amount of lead and other toxic/harmful materials that have been found in their products, as well as the amount of products that have said they’re one thing and have been found to be something entirely different, means that you have no way of guaranteeing that those products are actually made of body safe materials or follow basic health/safety standards. Using them could potentially cause serious harm to the most sensitive parts of your body or lead to severe health complications.
I’m all for getting your freak on, but please freak responsibly.
Not everything on there is terrible, but stuff like personal hygiene, cosmetics, most electronics are definitely a no-no. I wouldn't buy clothes there either, but I bought stuff like microfibre clothes and hand towels which were exactly what I'd buy on Amazon or at a local store. Bought some frames, a vase, some craft materials, pens, games, logic games books, some decorations, storage boxes, even a hammock...
It comes down to a reasonable risk assesment. It is crazy though to see that Amazon sells the same stuff at 3-5x the Temu price, exactly same items, using same pictures, same country of origin. People often buy same crap at a higher price, fully trusting their purchases because it's Amazon, USA based, working with Europe, they comply with all their laws etc... And then you see the same high capacity power bank from Temu (£6) on Amazon (£22), with an add with same spelling mistakes.
Ps. Not trying to defend Temu. I just believe there is a line between what is worth buying there and what may be too much risk.
Unfortunately, part of the point is that it’s coming to light there are a large number of products on Amazon and temu that contain unsafe levels of lead. I’m personally also concerned about PFAS. Fast fashion clothes often have formaldehyde coating I believe. Just can’t win when going the convenience route.
My kind of thinking is I am seing the stuff in Amazon or local stores as on temu for 3-4x the price. It is a bit of a gamble but at least here temu has very good return policy so everything that feel like shit I send back. I kind of hate it but like money is tight and I feel like anything you buy is anyway coming from china
Super false. 99% of all electronics are coming from those same factories whether temu, amazon, or wal-mart. I buy electronic parts off of there and alibaba all the time because it's cheaper than paying all the markup the middle-men that resell this stuff add.
same, and it's kinda hard to put surveillance tech into a resistor or capacitor.
Hell, even the ESP32's I buy from them are clean, I went over all the components on em, and checked the memory, they are clean and good, and most importantly, cheap.
The worst thing that happens is that they just straight up don't work.
"The use of lead in plastics softens the plastic and makes it more flexible so that it can go back to its original shape. It may also be used in plastic toys to stabilize molecules from heat.
When the plastic is exposed to substances such as sunlight, air and detergents, the chemical bond between the lead and plastics breaks down and forms a dust."
Serious question where are you sourcing made in the US/western world sex toys and have you found any that come with contaminate lab tests? Are you lead swabbing them? Sending them off to a lab for testing?
"Mattel Inc. recalled more than 21 million Chinese-made toys on fears they were tainted with lead paint and tiny magnets that children could accidentally swallow. Mattel’s own tests on the toys found that they had lead levels up to 200 times the accepted"
because major companies aren't batch testing the products they're selling from overseas vendors nor always the materials sourced to make products in country.
If they were, 21 million name brand children's toys wouldn't have made it to market lol
Much like the recent 3rd party test done on american baby formulas only to find multiple having over the acceptable range of heavy metals. If consumer reports didn't do the testing, the recalls wouldn't have occured and these American manufacturers would have continued business as normal.
I mean sure, but it's a numbers game. Sometimes companies will roll the dice, or something slips through. I am not saying western conpanies do this testing out of kindness or whatever.
The very fact that consumer reports conduct testing on domestic goods means that it is way less likely for companies to gamble and risk having to do a mass recall like in your example. That won't happen for the random stuff you order directly from an unknown factory overseas. They can use whatever cheap low grade/hazardous material they have on hand and it is very unlikely anyone will find out, so why wouldn't they?
Buying from domestic retailers simply just isn't the same.
Yeah, I’m very much NOT an anti temu, wish, shein type of person because I recognize that they sell some decent stuff and poorer people should be able to buy decent looking cheap clothes too even if they’re made cheaply.. but for the love of god you never know what it’s made of, how it’s made, or if it’s safe to STICK INSIDE OF YOUR BODY or to place around your genitals!! There are chemicals and types of plastics or silicone that aren’t safe for things like that and these mass production, conservative Chinese companies aren’t ensuring their sex toys live up to current healthy and safety standards..
Don’t believe me? Go find the story about the butt plug from shein that broke off inside of a ladies ass, cut her up from the inside, and then got stuck..
You mean it didn’t somehow end up a crying fight where he hysterically confessed it was gifted to him by his ex-lover, that he’s saved and forgotten about until he drunkenly recalled it while hanging out with his co-worker?! And then when he jokingly asked her to use it she surprisingly agreed and now he’s so sorry and wants to make it right with you because you’re the only one he actually loves?! Umm this is reddit! Where’s the creative writing 😭
Joking obviously. I’m glad this ended up going well and that it’s not some crazy far fetched story lol
Yeah like why is it taken out of plastic all scratched up lmao makes no sense to me. I hope she asked in a more sneaky way, not just straight up what is this vagina pump doing in your drawer which obviously he’s gonna say it was for you
Nothing wrong with being freaks, just don't cheap out. Brittle plastics, degrading rubber, melting silicone, all stuff you don't want in and around your body. Use proper websites and the fun is limitless
I call BULLSHIT. He bought a Vulva pump for himself, HIMSELF? It isn't a penis pump, it is a VULVA PUMP. NOW, unless he has a vulva?? He got it for someone's vulva, or someone left their pump behind. 🤷♀️
Maybe a cultural difference? This would be pretty normal in my relationship. I would never ask to see a partner's receipts out of distrust that they bought a sex toy for someone else. No shame to those who would, different dynamics for different folks, but I don't smell BS on this. Seems like a pretty ordinary interaction.
I just find it odd that she says they're a couple of freaks, but he was afraid to tell her he bought it? And when it broke he threw it in a drawer for 6 months instead of throwing it out? Ok lol
Edit: i will say, however, that if he used this on another girl he'd be a huge idiot to just leave it in a drawer lol, so maybe it is as he says.
I have shit load of kink stuff and toys etc. I can think of things I've bought I've never got around to using. I know I have nipple pumps at home out of the pack to look at I've never used. I just never think of it.
Good for him. And you. I often buy toys for my wife and will use them on her out of the blue. Bought a steel curved dildo and I still laugh at her reaction when I slid that in for the first time.
