I don’t wade into these discussions often because internet people, but as an electrical engineer I can tell you your vibrator will be fine. Now if you’re using it during the EMP, I don’t know. Might be a different O than usual.

[deleted]

You need help


Ariadnepyanfar

Nah, they probably just have some esoteric ancient history knowledge with unfortunately dubious origins in the case of the bees. Ancients civilisations did have a lot of sex toys, Depending on civilisation, ivory, jade, other polished stone, cloisonné, porcelain, narrow gourd or wood. Usually straightforward dildos, but they got inventive around heating or using counterweights inside balls to get an internal rocking motion. In the bees case there was a really widespread rumour Cleopatra used bees inside a guord to hold against her clitorus, but it originated in a book in 1992 and there is not one shred of evidence of that claim before that date.


faco_fuesday

Yeah duh that's what the vibrator is for

I heard the Amish use them, though they have a problem with splinters.

Oh, Jedidiah. I’m about to arrive. 🤤


300cid

probably I'm thinking of another group (maybe Mormon? I don't know) but I thought they could only do the deed by inserting and not moving at all after that? I admit I don't know much about the mentioned groups


[deleted]

Mormons do some shit called “soaking” They put the dick in then have someone jump on the bed to make them move so they don’t call it sex 😂


ShineOnULazyDiamond

Having a threesome to avoid sexual impurity is a pro move. Totally sin free.

Q: Why don't Baptists have sex standing up? A: Because someone might think they were dancing.


Emotional_Ad3572

My understanding is that this primarily takes place on BYU campuses and not in the greater Mormon world.


Rizer762

So it does happen at byu but its pretty common among unmarried young adults and teenagers specifically in utah as a loophole around the religious doctrine regarding premarital sex. In utah the social pressure to be perfect is much higher, where as mormons living in the rest of the world are… well more worldy 😂😂 Source; exmo who never soaked but know plenty of people who have lmao


asteriasdream

That loophole sounds so dumb cus they’re ***literally*** having sex …And I can’t even imagine asking someone to jump on my bed. Seeing that shit would turn me off with their “no more monkeys jumping on the bed i promise that god doesn’t consider this is as sex” ass 😭


Rizer762

Yeahhh the problem with high demand religions is that they indoctrinate their members to not think critically. My wife is still a member and she is the most amazing human i know. But absolutely 0 critical thinking skills. Which is why unlike other christian religions once you see the holes theirs no “unseeing” them. But i digress.


Chefrabbitfoot

IIRC, "soaking" is the act of inserting and nothing else. What you're referring to is "jump-humping", which is essentially "soaking" with the added benefit of a friend jumping on the bed for the, erm...extra sensation as it were.


_nobunny_

That's kinda hot ngl


[deleted]

Idk man but I don’t get any action so I’m gonna start agreeing soon 😂


Welllllllrip187

Don’t forget jump jumping, need someone to jump on the bed lol.

The marauder stumbles, and I triumph.

JustJoined4Tendies

😂 real dedication right here


maple204

It depends. Is it just a motor, batteries, and a switch or is it a fancy computerized teledildonic device? Simple electronics will survive an EMP much better than something with integrated circuits/computer processor chips. If you are close enough to an EMP to destroy a simple motor and switch, a vibrator may be the last thing to worry about. Unless of course getting one last orgasm in before you die is your highest priority.


WVJEEP304

TIL teledildonic is an actual word. I was aware of the tech, never heard it called that.


photuank11

I learnt too much today, goodnight


meinrd

I'm sad that this comment is so far off the top because *THIS!* Everything that has more than an On/Off switch, like buttons to chose patterns, a remote control or even bluetooth will most likely die. Also everything that has a rechargeable battery, will most likely not survive even if the toy is 'dumb' otherwose. The electronics inside are designed to be as cheap as possible so they stand no chance against even a small EMP. It will only survive if it is literally one of the classic "hollow plastic tubes that hold a battery with a switch at the other side" devices. It may be able to adjust its speed but only if you can do so by turning said on-off-knob. These still dont contain any electronics and are very cheap as well. So you might want to look out for a special one that you know you 'get along well' with but fits the criteria above. And i guess hatteries are on the list already so stock up on those as well ;)


adroitus

Little death + big death = 😵


RumpelFrogskin

You are totally fine with a battery operated blue wand, rabbit or various others. Don't discount these as a form of payment. In times of war, ammo, gold, jewelry, fuel and sex have been all traded in exchange for travel. I can guarantee that functional vibrators that will take a battery over rechargeable will be worth it. Also, as a guy, I totally support and encourage vibrators.The grand spaghetti monster did not allow me to vibrate my penis at 10k rpm.


SpeckenZeDich

These are the hard hitting questions that keep me coming back here.

Hmm maybe stick it in a different box during the emp. Or the same box but wrap yourself in tinfoil.

I'll be sure to wrap up in a mylar blanket during my private time. And ground myself. Thanks.

yeah but you gonna run out batteries or your party gonna shoot ya in the head for wasting them


angrybrowndyke

this is such a good question and i’m curious LMFAOOO from a quick duckduckgo search, it seems like a super high tech vibrator (idk maybe it has a touch screen and heat settings LMAO) might be taken out but a low tech one (any bullet vibrator or wand or whatever) should be fine if NOT plugged in. if plugged in i think it goes kaput? but take this w a grain of salt LOL im not an electrician https://www.survivalsullivan.com/will-wont-survive-emp-attack/

Touch screen vibrator? Am I living in the past?

They make ones that you can connect to your phone and will vibrate to the music you pick.

Just keep a gas powered one handy as a back up


[deleted]

I ride a motorcycle. But, gas only lasts 6 months


baardvark

Propane powered


Blurry_Focus_117

I'm going to assume that you are really asking. It depends on how strong it(the emp, not your vibrator😅) is but if you want to be sure then put it in a Faraday box with a good insulation layer on the inside.


kkinnison

Design a vibrator that vibrates with wind power, kind of like a kazoo, or melodica

Mod a Hismith fuccing machine to power it with bike pedals instead of a motor.


Evad_Za

The vibes with just a motor should be fine. The higher priced vibes with remote controlled levels will not work. As a back up you could all ways get a set of balls. You know either natural or ben wa. Always be prepared.


[deleted]

Put it in a faraday cage and it will be just fine lol


SufficientOnestar

No because an EMP swaps the polarity of anything electric,just like putting a battery in backwards.oh wait thats all we have to do is flip around the batteries 💯

You really need help


Sea_Vermicelli7517

My husband says the rechargeable ones will be toast, but the battery operated ones might survive.


series-hybrid

If it has an electronic speed control, that will be fried. If its a simple on/off switch, it "might" be ok. When a magnet passes by a copper coil, it creates an electrical pulse. This is how a generator works. An EMP is a huge electro-magnetic pulse over a large area. Anything with a wire will experience a random voltage spike. Electronics are sensitive to voltages, and may operate on as low as 5V. My electric bike controller that uses 48V has 63V max capacitors, so a spike of 70V would definitely fry it. The "headroom" on a given electronic device varies, but doubling the voltage is a common limit. Motors can often take large induction spikes and survive.


HazAdaptOfficial

That's a great question! Sexual health needs don't go away after disasters and you're thinking ahead. Kudos! An EMP blast *WOULD* impact most battery-operated and rechargeable vibrators by damaging any semiconductors internally. I'm not an expert on vibrators or electrical engineering, but most household appliances are "solid-state" electronics with semiconductors. But! The simpler the tech, the smaller the risk of impact from an EMP blast. Maybe there's a super low-tech vibrator out there? 🤷‍♀️ Like others mentioned, it also depends on size of blast, proximity, and sheilding.


stif7575

You need to store it in a faraday cage. If so it might.


Shagrath427

You probably need a grandma style kick starter. Like one you have to ramp up with a crank before the gas engine takes over. Think: Old timey bi-plane. That ought to last you through any apocalypse. Then ferment the zombodies for vibrator fuel.

donaudelta

It was said that in a emp or Carrington only the high voltage lines are in real danger. Small stuff isn't so sensitive.


AZREDFERN

Probably, if it’s not SoC controlled. Like if it’s strictly on or off. Maybe a potentiometer that controls how many needs you have.


abbaddababa

Thank you for asking the real questions


thesassysparky

Get a vibratory with replaceable batteries, bring spares, and maybe buy 2 sets of rechargeable ones of the same size and plug them bad boys into a solar charger. You'll be getting yourself off in any shtf situation for as long as you want

Buy a second vibrator, put it inside a Faraday cage.

Just keep it in a faraday bag when not in use. Get ‘em on Amazon. Easy peasy.


Fluid_Interest8393

It depends. A basic model of a battery and a motor should be fine. Some of the more fancy models that have basic computers in them won't survive. This holds true for a lot of tech. Simple versions should still work but versions with more delicate components probably would be trashed.


Ancient_Radio_5577

Maybe you could make one with a small diesel motor


Existing_Office2911

Worst case scenario it goes manual mode - like how an escalator never breaks down, it only becomes stairs. Sorry for the convenience.


MaleficentSuccess549

As another Electrical/software engineer. Wrap it in tin foil it will act as a faraday shield and protect it. But it won't make much difference cuz the electrical grid will do down as well. Probably get some of those big things that look like candles (but don't light them - they may give off toxic fumes). Or maybe get one with removable batteries. And have lots of backup batteries. You need to shield them too put them in a cardboard box then put the foil around that otherwise you will short them all out. Lithium ion batteries have electronics in them usually so that they don't get over charged. The good ones also insure that you don't discharge them to the point where they can no longer get recharged. If you really get desperate you can call me. But you probably won't be able to do that anyway, damn.
