Sex toys have been around for thousands and thousands of years and so has the expression of sexuality dating back to prehistoric times. Beginning at this time, the history of sex toys shifts from Miletus, China, Italy and are now found all over the world.





Cave carvings showed nude bodies with no facial features of women with oversized breasts, buttocks and hips. This was the very first sign of what resembles porn dating back to around 25,000 B.C. It wasn’t until around 500 B.C. in Miletus, a Greek Port, that an early version of a dildo was created and sold in areas of the Mediterranean. In assistance to sex toys, the earliest type of lubricants date back to 350 B.C. when olive oil and vegetable oil were used.




Penis extenders, knows as prosthetic penis attachments, were first made mention in Kama Sutra, the all-classical sex manual. Originally they were made out of things such as gold, copper, wood and even buffalo horns. These toys were inventing starting around 300 A.D. Next the Ben Wa ball, originally used solely for men, over time were used by females as well. Instead of using one, they would use two. Solid or hollow; they created a ringing sound when used and were invented around 500 A.D.




Another sex toy cock rings, were invented around 1200 in China. Tied around a man’s penis, these rings would increase pleasure. Surprisingly enough, they were made from goat’s eyelids including eyelashes. A later version of the dildo, was named from the Italian word olisbo which eventually became dildo. Made up of leather or wood, the lubrication of oil was suggested in order for comfort. Next on the timeline in 1600, the clitoral stimulator was created in China. Rings of ivory were used by the men to increase the women’s pleasure. On these rings, carved within were dragons, which would rub on the women’s clitoris.




Vibrators came about in 1869, invented by a physician in America; it was powered by steam and used for treating hysteria. Later during the same century, specifically in 1899, the very first vibrator was advertised because it could now be used in the home. These gained popularity between 1900-1920 and the plug in vibrators became common in households. The 1900’s also marked the patent of the first Penis Stiffener in 1907 and in 1921 vibrators for men.
