Will an intimate wellness device replace my partner?

Video Transcript

Hey, I'm Danielle Bezalel, founder of Sex Ed with DB with the Master of Public Health, and I'm here to answer questions submitted by the plusOne community.

Here's the question, will a vibrator replace my partner?

Definitely not. Vibrators can be the cherry on top, or it could be the entire sundae, and everything in between.

Vibrators are on the same team as your partner, not competition. The more we're able to think of vibrators as tools that can help unlock pleasure in feeling good in our bodies and minds, the less concerned we can be about whether or not it will replace a human being.

Follow along and see what question is answered next.
