I did know someone who claims to have bought a remote controlled vibe thingy...
...and then handed over the remote to her significant other for the remainder of the evening. Apparently dinner was a decidedly jerky affair.

I've not seen these advertised anywhere so I'm not only calling shenanigans, but also I'm going to invent it.

If it was, it wasn't one of mine.
The person who told me the story claimed it happened to them personally though.

Not really the same story though...
...aside from the vibrating remote thingy. Maybe there's more than one in circulation?

Do they not trust themselves with their own pleasure?

there seem to be a few of those going on right now

i've never seen the practicality of it to be honest
the bit ladies like vibrated is external, but those things have to be kept 'up' there for the man to remote control

i don't really see why a woman holding a lump of plastic up her chuff is going to be turned on in any way

I believe that this was also a plot of a QOTW story
I think I've a spare Nokia Communicator circa 1999 lying around if any ladies like a challenge.
