Bunny Love
Once upon a time, there was a toy that brought the word “vibrator” from seedy little shops to the mainstream. A toy whose named was derived from the unique tickle of its little ears on a certain most-intimate spot.The rabbit.
If you viewed my recent toy-shopping tutorial video, you will have learned this is my all-time favorite toy. I’m not alone! Lots of gals love it, since the rabbits are designed for stimulating the vaginal erogenous zones and clitoris simultaneously - with the special aide of those ears! Plus, they are just CUTE.The exciting news now is that my friends at Babeland (who provided the setting for BOTH of my videos, as well as one yet-to-be-aired), now have a Bunny Love kit! It includes a new and updated version of the rabbit, plus many other goodies. The Elastomer Rabbit Habit is made of a luxurious phthalate-free and latex-free material. You’ll want to hop into bed as soon as possible with this ingenious solution to cold winter nights! Gift pack includes batteries, Babeland Toy Cleaner, two Babeland condoms, and a 4-ounce bottle of BabeLube.And I have TWO to give away!So, have your try at it! Answer the following questions:1 - What is the URL of the video I made that mentions the rabbit as my favorite toy? (Hint: It’s posted in this blog in several places, just scroll down to earlier entries.)2 - The rabbit was made famous on a very popular television show (that I model my life after in many ways). What show was it? Extra credit if you can tell us a little bit about the episode!3 - This version of the rabbit is better in what way? What does that mean?4 - Do you feel other animals of the animal kingdom are being screwed? (Pardon the pun.) Imagine the anatomy of your favorite creatures. What other ones may be born to be adapted to be pleasure objects?? Why should the rabbit have all the fun? Share.Two most correct (and entertaining) answers by Tuesday win a bunny love kit of their very own!

Well, let’s see here:
1) The video can be found at http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm. Anyone else who enters this better go into their favorites (or, if you must, back in blogs) to find the link and don’t copy mine.
2) The rabbit was made famous on, of course, Sex in the City. Season 1, Episode 9. Miranda got Charlotte into it. I don’t remember too much from the rest of the episode.
3) In the Rabbit Habit, it differs from the original because the ears are angled to reach the shaft (of a woman, not the vibrator) better. The beads (”pearls”) inside rotate in a more consistant way. This model also is covered in Elastomer.
4) Well, there actually are other animals that have been made into vibrators. There is, of course, the dolphin whose nose takes women on a ride of fun. There is also the bee (”Honey Dipper”), and a bull (”Cowboy Up”) who doesn’t mind getting down and dirty with his horns. I don’t know of one exactly, but I could also see a butterfly vibrator. Use your imagination.

Once upon a time, there was a girl named, Aly(ce), who decided to list a few of her favorite things. http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
She chased a Rabbit down a hole where she fell and she fell, screaming screams of delight!

(sorry, hit enter too soon…let’s try this again)
Once upon a time, there was a girl named, Aly(ce), who decided to list a few of her favorite things. http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
She chased a Rabbit down a hole where she fell and she fell, screaming screams of delight!
Along the way, she encountered characters beautiful and strange in a land called Sex and the City. The Charlotte(shire) cat became so addicted to the ecstasy, she hid her Rabbit under a stuffed Rabbit upon the tufts of her truffley bed.
The Queen of Hearts was surprised at the new latex and phthalate-free Elastomer, so she no longer needed to exclaim, “Off with their Heads!” Her entire kingdom could now be serviced, allergy-free. Not to mention, the Hatter was MAD over the angled design (for more direct clit contact) and pearls that rotate more consistently, enable the tea party to go without a hitch.
Finally, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum realized Dolphins and Puppies and any creature with long arms or legs or ears would tickle just the same. Perhaps, even a spider for those gothic, arachnid loving types, like Miss Muffet. Whatever the case may be, I’m sure miss Aly(ce) will be tempted to stay away from the house with the treats that say “eat me” and “drink me” and, eventually, with Rabbit in hand, she’ll live happily ever after.

1)The video html is http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm.
2)The Rabbit was made famous by the show Sex and the City
3)The new version’s “bunny” portion is angled closer to the shaft for more direct clit contact, and the famous pearls have been redesigned to rotate more consistently than the tumbling pearls of the original. Wheeee!
4)I’d like to see a modification of the rabbit - something that focused on the whiskers instead of or in addition to the ears. Imagine! A full set of whiskers, tickling in the most intimate of places…woooooo!

1. http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm. i loved how you mentioned the best toys are the ones that could double as decor.. hahaha.
2. the rabbit vibrator was popularized by the show Sex in the City in season 1.
3. it’s better because it’s latex-free!!! yay! also, it’s phthalate-free.
the ears are angled to provide better contact with the clitoris. the pearls have been redesigned so they rotate more evenly than the older versions of rabbits do.
4. hmmm.. i sure love animals!!!! i would say a combination of a buzzing bee or hummingbird and length of a snake and power of a rhino would make a fun toy… for those who are into strong thrusting…

Fun contest!
Your video, which I loved watching multiple times, can be found at http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm. It was made famous on Sex and the City, NYC’s TV-Bible for love and dating.
It seems that the new and improved Rabbit Habit is now sheathed in elastomer, which is a high quality material that’s latex and phthalate free, yet still very soft, perfect for those with sensitive skin! They’ve also redesigned the toy to have the vibrating bunny angled closer to the shaft, for even more direct clit contact.. awesome!
I can imagine great fun would come from a toy resembling a Seahorse, with it’s head and body diving, exploring deep inside you, as it’s curled around tail teases the clit playfully. Ergonomically designed, with lots of nubbins along the body/shaft, you can’t go wrong! Aly, see if your friends at Babeland can have my design made up for me, wouldja?

1) http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
2) Sex in the City
3) It’s latex and phthalate free; the bunny ears are angled for more direct clit contact; and the pearls have been redesigned to rotate more consistently
4) My body is stubborn and I have trouble climaxing so I think a vibrator designed to vibrate “faster than a humming bird’s wings” would be awesome
November 29th, 2007 at 9:09 am
1.) A fine video it is: http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
2.) An Aly-favorite: Sex in the City!
3.) Ditto what others have said; however for me the biggest IMPROVEMENT of this Rabbit over other Rabbit Models is that you do not need to use condoms with it!
4.) My favorite animals are always forsaken. First, the mighty and noble ELK. Surely something could be made with twittering antlers. Next, a new Aly-fave, the ALPACA. The long neck and nose could totally be for insertion/g-spot stimulation. Finally, imagine a toy shaped like a SQUID. ‘Nuff said.
PS: I once had a toy shaped like a platypus. It was (surprisingly) awesome. AND CUTE!
Please, someone, make me a squid.

4)hmmmm… I like it fast and hard and hitting the most intimate of places…woooooo! so I would have to say a really strong fast animal like a cheetah!!

You my friend are brilliant! I would answer but I fear that being host and producer I don’t qualify.
However, I will add that a dolphin is most intriguing…slippery when wet!
November 30th, 2007 at 6:05 pm
1) http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
2)Sex and the City. Charlotte is introduced to the rabbit by Miranda and becomes a masturbating hermit. I was a masturbating hermit until my rabbit broke.
3 - The version you talk about in your post is better because it’s made of elastromer, so it has no sticky chemicals and is hypoallergenic. This means I can get off and worry less about getting a nasty infection! Unfortunately you disinfect elastomer though.
4) It’s hard to beat those rabbit ears, but any animal with a pointy nose would work well…a dolphin comes to mind firstly. I have also heard positive things about duckies, elephants, and butterflies.
November 30th, 2007 at 10:36 pm
1 - The URL to this wonderfully informative video is http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm. (I still can’t get over ‘the cone’. :p)
2 - That show would be ‘Sex in the City’. It was the ninth episode of the first season. Miranda introduces Charlotte to this vibe, and her reaction is just too funny - “It’s pink, for girls!”. A clip of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jALfw1uRoVo
3 - Well, besides it being cute; the materials are different. This new and improved rabbit is no longer made with latex and the phthalate material is long gone. The ears are perfectly designed for clitorus stimulation as well as stimulation of the “erogenous zones” (ooh la la!).
4 - Hmm, so many possibilities. Well, even though they aren’t the cutest or friendliest, a rattlesnake would be perfect. A vibrating tongue with the rattled tail shaft. My oh my, I can just imagine. As silly as it sounds, a snake is like an orgasm. Both keep building up until they can no longer take it, than wow! They strike! I think Im begining to like snakes after all.
November 30th, 2007 at 11:50 pm
Okay, Amy’s comment is INGENIOUS! I love it!
Of course, I’m currently buzzed (shhh! Peartini!) so I will probably be less creative. In fact, I know I will.
Anyway, 1) http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
2) Rabbit was made famous on Sex and the City. Unfortunately, I never got into the show so I can’t tell you more about the episode (am I docked points as a result?).
3) Okay, why this new version is better: it’s not made from latex, therefore allergy problems are BYE BYE! Also, the rabbit is angled more so it stimulates the clitoris better, which is honestly way important to me (I have an older version and it may be TMI but I totally would love a better angle, that is VALUABLE!). Also, the pearls rotate more consistently, which has to be AWESOME–the version I have has the pearls throughout the entire shaft and I’ve honestly never experienced them well because of the reasons stated on the page–inconsistent rotation coupled with way too much, the only ones that were moving were ones in places that just weren’t worthwhile. I should NOT be writing this buzzed! Also, everyone’s missing this, but THERE’S FREAKING GLITTER INVOLVED! I LOVE GLITTER! THE GLITTER MAKES IT SOOOOOO MUCH COOLER! And also, this one only takes 3 AAs?! Does it last as long as the old one, cuz that takes 4 and man do I run those batteries down quick.
4) Okay, so I’ve seen the dolphins, and also the “Eager Beaver,” which is just a rabbit rip off. I’ve seen ladybug clit-stimulators that are remote controlled. Personally, my favorite animals are monkeys and prairie dogs, so I don’t know what could really be done with those, but… spiders/squids could be really cool, or like a scorpion with its pincers, or… hmm… WHAT ABOUT A GIRAFFE?! Like, seriously!? Holy crap that could be awesome! Like, the shaft could be the giraffe’s neck and head, and it could have a rabbit-habit-like clitoral-stimulator out of it’s tail or whatever. OHMYGOD THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!
Okay, I’m crazy. Honestly, my rabbit’s probably gonna break soon and I will be heartbroken.
I will probably regret this response tomorrow. Alas alas. Yay for martinis!

1 - Your video is posted at http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
2 - (I researched this one!)
Sex in the City. Episode 9 “The Turtle and the Hare”
Directed by: Michael Fields
Written by: Susan Kolinsky
Big tells Carrie he will never marry again. After a harsh dumping, Samantha tries to turn “The Turtle” into a Helmut Lang-wearing “catch,” but realizes he’s still just The Turtle. Miranda introduces Charlotte to a very special vibrator called “The Rabbit,” which turns Charlotte into a recluse.
3 - It’s made out of a new material that doesn’t have latex and phthalates in it, which means it’s healthier for the user. This model also features a redesigned ear position and “pearl” rotation mechanism, which means it feels even better. It also has glitter. Oh, and you don’t have to use a condom with it.
4 - Well, I’ve always liked the rabbit as an animal, and I’ve always wanted to have this toy … so I guess I can’t be too angry at the rabbit. But, other ones? Hm, I really like rodents too … and I think the combination of their long slippery tails and pointed noses/ears/whiskers could be quite divine. Or a beaver? I’m guessing that one has been done before, but a wide tail and pointy teeth seem to also be a good combination. Hmm… I’m thinking of something that would share the best of both worlds such as a HARE-IBOU (part hare, part caribou) would include: long rabbit ears, strong rabbit haunches, and caribou (elk-like) antlers.
could it get any better?
December 3rd, 2007 at 1:53 am
I never watched Sex and the City till last year when I rented all the seasons and watched non-stop for a week probably. I do however recall a bit of the episode that the “rabbit” is introduced in. I don’t think that Charlotte was all that into sex toys and was hesitant to try one, but like everyone said she got addicted to it! It was Season I, so much detail has left my memory since watching it
Having never tried the rabbit, and not acquired the habit of it I would love it I just know. 
That dual action of G-spot rubbing and clit tweaking… yeah ((blushes)).
A bonus is the elastomer stuff. No more latex irritation and much more safe as far as phthalates go. (Bad news those are.) Also they say that they made improvements on the pearls, good, cause those really intrigue me.
Honestly I just wanna try it and don’t have $90 to spare. And Babeland is a great company, so I know it must be good for them to back it. Plus in the reviews someone said it not only gave her daily orgasms BUT it did her dishes!!! :O I NEED that!
The link is here for the video. I don’t know why but I read that wrong and was expecting a DIFFERENT clip instead so i kept looking farther back thinking I missed it somewhere lol. I didn’t. It’s just late and I must be sleeping already.
http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
As far as a animal that is getting screwed out of being used as a sex toy I am not really sure. The whole idea is just kinda… odd.
That being said. I personally love love combined G-spot and clitoral touching and so pretty much any shape that can give me that is a good one. I like curvy things, so perhaps a shape that had a curvy tail that was insert-able with the body and head of it being the “nibbler”. Unfortunately, or not,… the only animal that comes to mind is a squirrel. Sigh hmm. Maybe it could just be somewhat representative of a squirrel. I’m an artist I could design one. I am not however a electrical person so mine would not have the nifty nibblers and pulsators of the real deal. Oh well

1. The video is at http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm.
2. Sex and the City, Episode 9. After Charlotte is introduced to the Rabbit, she likes it too much, even musing to Carrie during a yoga class that she may have broken her vagina. Eventually the gals perform an intervention of sorts, confiscating Charlotte’s Rabbit from its hiding place inside a stuffed rabbit (”Charlotte, that is so YOU.”)
3. The Elastomer version contains no phthalates, chemicals used to soften plastics to a jelly-like texture that have been linked to irritation and endocrine disruption. The elastomer version is also said to provide better stimulation. Also safe for those with latex allergies.
4. My favorite member of the vibrator animal kingdom is the little koala that sits on the Australian Koala Kiss vibrator. Why? Not for sensation, but sheer amusement. Most vibrator animals are perched up on the base of the shaft, but this little Koala is HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE. Clearly, he’s the only vibrator animal who knows what’s coming.

1) website URL= http://sheknows.com/blogs/alytude/2007/11/29/bunny-love/
because allies and alys, regardless of spelling, know where it’s at
2) The rabbit was made famous on episode 9 of season one of the only TV show I will deign to watch, Sex and The City. A little back story:
in middle school, my best girlfriends and i would surreptitiously rent sex and the city season DVDs from the neighborhood video store and have marathon Carrie, Sam, Miranda, and Char sleepover extravaganzas in my basement until we passed out from all the new things we’d learned pertaining to sex and sexuality, including the rabbit. From the moment I saw that episode on, I knew one day I had to have a rabbit of my own.
3) The rabbit is better because the new model doesn’t use synthetic ingredients, I imagine as a result of the new green product movement that every industry is cashing in on big time right now, sex toys being no exception. The new rabbit is also redesigned to make the ascent to the climax as transcendental as Emerson’s famous essay “Self-Reliance” (no pun intended.)
4) A whale. Hello Moby Dick- it’s a whale of a good time! The linguistic possibilities are endless.
** A Lil’ Sumin’ extra**
For years, my best friend from 2nd grade had promised to buy me a vibrator for my 18th birthday. She did, and I’m proud to say it was purchased at Babeland in Seattle on Capitol Hill. My first vibrator is a very modest affair. Originally called The Pearl, we renamed it Starbuck in honor of Melville, Seattle + coffee culture, and a bunch of other double entendres made us please with how clever we were.
However, I am now ready for something more grown up. I am ready to realize my 13 year old fantasy and own a rabbit of my own. Maybe I’ll even name it Br’er Rabbit because, like Br’re, my rabbit will spend most of its time hidden deep in the bush.
December 4th, 2007 at 7:24 am
Wow. Am I the only male entering this contest?
Sure, the ladies go for the rabbit.
But the GUYS go for the LADIES who go for the rabbit.
Well, THIS guy does, at least.
OK, so here I go.
1) http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm OK, I didn’t know this, and I cheated from the people above. But that shows I’m willing to LEARN, right? Doesn’t that count for something? A voyage of self-discovery worthy of a Judy Blume novel? Or a novella, at least.
2) OK, even I knew this one, having seen it relatively recently. Sex and the City. I didn’t really watch the show, but I know that the red-haired one introduced the brunette one to it and she got, like, totally addicted. EXACTLY the same thing happened to my wife — hell, when I saw that episode of Sex and the City I nearly thought it was a documentary.
3) Ooh, I know this one too! I know because I just bought my wife (who’s EXTREMELY new to “toys”) a copy of Violet Blue’s guide to toys and we’ve been reading it. Elastomer toys are low-irritant and nice and safe and don’t have nasty phpthptphptphtalates (I can’t even type it, let alone say it) which are kind of like a big ol’ nasty mystery chemical that comes in vats and they tip in when they’re making cheap sex toys probably because it costs, like, 5 cents a barrel and they don’t really give a damn if it turns your vijayjay yellow or makes your clit explode or something. Also, from reading the product description you linked to, it seems to provide ‘more direct clit contact’, which is actually probably a bad thing. Given how she reacted with the old one (see below), I’m worried that if she gets ‘more direct clit contact’ then a), I will have to peel her off the ceiling with a pool leaf skimmer, and b) I will probably not see her for 12 months and I’ll have to slide pop tarts under the bedroom door to keep her fed.
4) Well, I know for sure about dolphins, because that’s the ‘old one’ of which I spoke above. It was my wife’s first ever sex toy (she’s 31; we only got it 3 months ago) and if it didn’t open her eyes to a whole new UNIVERSE of possibilities, then I’m Santa Clause. DAMN she loved that thing. That’s right — loveD. She’s only had the thing for about 6 weeks and it started to become detached from the base, so we stopped using it — and she’s hardly been the same since. If I don’t organise her a replacement soon, I’ll be sleeping on the couch — or outside with the rabbit (the real, furry one, not a vibrating one). I don’t know about other animals, but I can think of some that might work — a little mouse would be cute, or a snuffly pig (awww!), or a ladybird. The elephant and the anteater, though — they’d either be a brilliant idea or a recipe for disaster. I’m not sure which.
Anyway, that’s enough from me. Good luck and have fun, whoever wins!

1. http://www.sheknows.com/videos/love-and-sex/170.htm
Very informative vid — I hadn’t seen it before. I haven’t yet had the opportunity to try most of the vibes in the video, including the rabbit, but I’m working on it! Forget diamonds, vibes are a girl’s real best friend and you can never have too many.
2. Sex in the City — Okay, I have to admit, i didn’t have HBO when this show was popular, and I’ve just never gotten around to watching it now that it’s in re-runs. I feel like I’ve missed a female right of passage or something. So asking if anyone wants to punish me for my infraction is probably not what we were looking for here, hmm?
3. It’s better because it’s phthalate-free, which means safer and usable by a wider range of people. Honestly though, I do dislike that it can’t be disinfected — so a note to sex-toy chemists out there: We need a material that combines the best traits of Elastomer with the ability to easily disinfect. Sure, we can just put a condom over it, but then all the reasons for having Elastomer in the first place are moot. Will that stop me from coveting the Rabbit though? No! I send coveting vibes (hmm, didn’t mean to pun there, but heh) in it’s general direction!
4. Hmmm, koi are nice, but it doesn’t look like the ‘ears’ are as long. So down with fish and long-live the cute and fuzzy! And going with the “cute and fuzzy is better” theme, how about a ‘Tiger’? Something with ears AND a nice long tail to ensure no erogenous zone is left untapped. It could be used in all sorts of ways for external stimulation and teasing. Mmmm, yummy.
