In the 1990s I worked with an engineer who used a "massage vibrator" to test circuit boards for bad solder joints. It was amazingly effective! Power up the board, and apply the vibrator. If it doesn't malfunction, it passes the test.
As a retired Electrical Engineer from Raytheon I was amusingly surprised by this "innovative" idea. Based upon my personal experiences of physically tapping a circuit board with some non-conductive slightly massive object, one could briefly re-activate a malfunctioning circuit board. I'm not sure my bosses would have allowed me to bring in such an unusual "tool" to work. I'll have to try it with some future home projects I might develop. Poor solder joints are a persistent problem in circuit board assembly. Thanks to Mike U128 for the remembrance.
@@fjdarling I used to use my Snap-on #2 Phillips screwdriver by rotating the driver by the shaft and letting the handle bounce on the edge of the boards or case of the suspect unit to see if the vibration would cause intermittent operation. In some cases, the problem would reveal itself to be the vias being intermittent, and I would have to bridge them with wire and solder them to repair the vias.

I remember asking a particularly cynical professor of mine about what is keeping students from just pretending that their sources support their claims. He was quick to point out that not only is this really commonly done by students, but that actual scientists do this all the time too, either accidentally or as a form of falsification. The issue is that it's fairly rare to actually look up the exact wording of sources, and usually the claims are reasonably close to what is being said in the source, but over time it can gradually shift into something completely different, especially as something is a citation of a citation of a citation.
Not to mention the total number of cited materials. A singular book turns into 50 or more published papers relatively quickly, and I feel most folks just aren't up to the task.
Like the game of "Telephone" which almost ALWAYS results in the information being horribly mangled, which is why it is a popular party game. Passing on innformation has GAPS.....
I retired from the Army a few years ago. I was in need of some specialty supplies for the section I operated in Iraq. I was searching the mass supply database to find the NSN (National Stock Number) for the supplies I needed under the medical section and I found an NSN for vibrators. It has a very clinical name, I wish I remembered it. But, there were no doubts about what it was which means I could have gone to a Supply Sergeant and ordered one.
With what largesse the govt supply chain has been known to bestow on the pricing of common items like hammers and coffee makers, one can only wonder how many of our tax dollars are at work in that situation
Banning sex toys is gross governmental overstep. Even if the cases get overturned on a technicality, they will still be able to win on a different argument.
My grandmother was born in 1898, and her father was a Victorian small town doctor. One of the things she inherited from him was a very early vibrator ( I've seen it, I don't remember if it still worked) that fit on the back of the doctor's hand. She said it was used for "massage" but as her dad did not massage sore backs it makes me kind of wonder if this theory might have been true in some cases.
I'm fairly sure that even if it was probably not considered an appropriate form of medical treatment, people almost certainly knew that vibrators worked for that back then and if a patient and a doctor were in any way intimate, it's sure they would have 'misused' these things. For as long as humans have made tools, they have been using them on their genitals.
There are a significant number of people who COLLECT old vibration devices from antiquity. I have been to two "demonstrations" in the sex positive community about the early developments. Saw some really, really old ones! (they also cover violet wands) Very interesting! The explainations on the boxes are the funniest part.
I saw Maines speak about her book at a science festival in 2000 or so. I greatly enjoyed the tale and repeated it as truth several times (though I never got round to buying the book). I was _so_ p|ssed off when the truth emerged, and so embarrassed. Her claims that she only presented it as an hypothesis were such a lie. She presented it as historical fact and I and many others took it that way. I have no compunction about calling it _fraud._ She wasn't telling it as a tall tale, she sold numerous copies of her book as fact.
There was also a 1994 movie called "The Road to Wellville," starring Anthony Hopkins, Matthew Broderick, Bridget Fonda, John Cusak, Dana Carvey, and many others. In the film, a side plot (or "B" story) involves a doctor who manually performs the service in question here. I wonder if that inspired Rachel Maines.
Going from Florida Man Friday to this is quite the change up hahhahaha. The fact that Simon can straight face deliver this is nothing short of stunning 🤣🤣

I still don't understand why vibrators and other sex toys are still a toboo and banned in india... Doesn't make any sense, its just very backwards. Atleast they are still sold just with higher prices and false names
Texan here (and former cop) I don’t think those obscenity laws are either around or just unenforceable due to the Texas V Johnson case. It’s not that hard to find a sex store here and also a few years back Dallas hosted a porn convention. Dallas tried to ban it but were ultimately unsuccessful 😂
Well then, they should take them off the books. The problem with laws like that is that they can be used an excuse to harass people for other reasons. Say a corrupt sheriff is targeting an opponent and they find a vibrator during a home search. If he's close to the prosecutor they could use that to make their target's life a misery, even if they eventually lose in court.
Hysteria is probably more real than the psychoanalytic concepts of borderline or histrionic personality disorders and arguably less insulting to women. Edward Shorter included hysteria in his "history-based DSM," which aimed to list only mental illnesses that had stood the test of time, regardless of whether they are currently recognized. Neurasthenia survived as late as ICD-10 and also has some surprisingly solid foundations. The basic observation that various mood disorders and cycloid psychoses have a hormonal diathesis gives rise to the idea that there could be softer forms subtly influenced by factors unique to females. The most well known examples today are postpartum depression and PMDD.
As a sufferer of PMDD (diagnosed over 2 decades ago), who also experienced almost 18 months of PPD that nearly drove me to suicide, describing these disorders as a more "soft" mood disorder/ mental illness, feels inadequate, & could seem invalidating to those in the throes of it. They fact that such conditions are more temporary than other mental conditions, doesn't comfort or lessen the toll they take on women who feel their minds, their autonomy, their very lives to be destroyed, or stolen, by the inescapable cycle. Such is the severity of symptoms that if women did Not get a reprieve when hormones fluctuate, I wouldn't expect most sufferers to escape eventual suicide. The # of suicides/ attempts with these conditions are still grimly high.
@@darkcrystalmagik3369I have PMDD too. I am so thankful for being able to advocate for myself while being my normal, functional self! I can't imagine trying get help while dealing with a non-cyclical serious mental health disorder. I agree, the states we are in during episodes would be insufferable if constant. Even knowing the next one is coming up in a few weeks makes us desperate. I'm sorry for your PPD - eighteen months! Beware perimenopause, it can hit people who have had menstrual issues harder. My PMDD has got so much worse but I didn't know the symptoms of perimenopause to realise. HRT is possibly helping both.
Thank you for this fact-check video! I have now emblazoned "void" across the document in my mental filing cabinet that contained that historical falsehood!
Wait, does this mean that the 1837 Dr Swift's Fine Gentle Massage ad poster is fake too? Or is that an outlier? I've been googling for hours, but to no avail! Some versions are definitely fake, some look convincing, and goddammit I want Dr Swift to be real!!
Before she passed away in about 1990 at age 94 I remember my then 91 year old grandmother, who had retired from being an RN after about 45 years of nursing service saying, “Every generation thinks that they are the first ones to discover sex. No one is doing anything that hasn’t been done for hundreds if not thousands of years. ” 😂
Research "early sex toys." Yep, we've been horny since we arrived. They've gotten more technicologically complex....but the originals are from the stone age.
Attitudes truly have changed though, and not entirely for the better. However, on my list of important public issues sex is far from the top. That being said though, there are still some very mixed up puritans that don't want Sex Ed in school. Many of our problems are caused By the fact that the Sex Ed we do have is nowhere near enough. It should get progressively more complete up until grade 12, and there should not be any opting out allowed. Nor should home schooling be allowed to skip any part of it. Even if it isn't society's top priority, it should stil be very high priority in what our kids are taught. Absence of knowledge leaves black voids that inevitably get filled with, myths, inaccuracies, and lies, all of which are very harmful. Women my age, 64, are still suffering from the lack of info and wrong info that we and our parners (or potential partners) were taught.
Leave it to Simon Whistler to produce a video on this subject! I would add that vibrators were marketed in the 1960s, 1970s and even the 1980s as "marital aids." It was the sexual revolution of the 1970s and 1980s that finally brought vibrators out of the shadows and openly marketed as "sex toys" and "vibrators." The rise of sexually oriented magazines like Playboy, Penthouse, Playgirl and Cosmopolitan as well as X-rated movies that popularized vibrators and other sex toys for both women and men.
Even though I have a naturally dirty mind. I find this fascinating. The fact that we are still dealing with misinformation even now in todays world speaks volumes to the lack of trust in the sciences. I just don't understand why people of any background wouldn't want the truth. And also that people would actively spread misinformation knowing it was a lie.
C S Lewis coined a term for this: chronological snobbery. We want to believe that we are more advanced, more intelligent, and therefore, superior to those who came before us.
The drones look like Jetson One's. I'm going to laugh my ass off if they are a legal company giving "flying car" tours. It kind of makes sense if it is. That's why nothing is being done about it.
As a native Texan that owns more than a few toys, the obscene device law is basically only a convo starter about history. I’ve worked in a couple rubberPP stores, and cops go in allllll the time to buy stuff for their naughty-bits.
I’m watching this at work. Actually I’m listening to it with earbuds, as I really don’t want someone passing by my desk to see this. My phone is behind my laptop.
I could only imagine trying to ban the sale of something like a vibrator today. December 31st Vibrators are banned January 1st sale of electric toothbrushes soar!
Considering how the wand of my toothbrush makes my jaw feel if I bump my teeth with it, they would definitely need some modification before being used as a sex toy!
Texas has just seen a lawmaker propose a bill that would ban the sale of vibrators in drug stores. So, yeah - social progress has lagged behind technological progress.
I am by far the first person to point out that the phrase "social science" is a contradiction in terms, and therefore we should not expect much from any person or organization operating in this pseudo-scientific area.
Hi Simon, I'm surprised that you completely left out the research done by Masters & Johnson in the 50's and 60's. This video needs some serious revision.
Peer reviewing papers has no professional or financial benefit. We should start paying people for proving a paper false. And if it was found to be maliciously and deliberately false maybe there should be a fine.
I was so upset when I found out about this “historian’s” blatant false narrative. I first heard this take in a college women’s history class. My professeur taught it sincerely. Sigh.
