The Evolution of the Rabbit Vibrator

In 1983, the inception of the rabbit vibrator introduced a groundbreaking innovation to the world of sexual wellness. Finally, a device designed to deliver simultaneous external and internal pleasure. But it took quite a lot more to take it from mere sex toy to a cultural icon.

Yes that scene from Sex and the City

It was 1998 and on TV screens across the world, Sex and the City character Charlotte York discovered the rabbit vibrator. This watershed moment for female sexuality on television marked a bold step towards normalising women’s sexual pleasure. It also introduced the rabbit vibrator to mainstream audiences, catapulting this device from the shadows of taboo into the spotlight of popular culture.

The original Rabbit was a revelation. With its distinctive feminine hues, nine inches of twirling, fluttering, and vibrating joy, and its disarmingly cute bunny ears, it became a symbol of sexual liberation. Women were encouraged to explore their desires with the same confidence as Carrie Bradshaw’s strolls down Fifth Avenue.
