"ABSTRACT
Introduction. While vibrating products have been recommended by clinicians for the treatment of male sexual dysfunctions, knowledge is lacking with regard to the prevalence of vibrator use among men in the United States, the characteristics of men who use vibrators, and whether there are relations between vibrator use and sexual function among men.
Aims. To establish lifetime and recent prevalence rates for vibrator use by men in the United States, to document the characteristics of men who use vibrators and their reasons for using vibrators, and to explore relations between men's vibrator use and sexual function.
Methods. During April 2008, data were collected from a population-based cross-sectional survey of 1,047 men aged 18–60 years in the United States. Analyses were conducted using poststratification data weights.
Main Outcome Measure. Measures included sociodemographics, health status and health-related behaviors, sexual behaviors, vibrator use, and sexual function.
Results. For both solo and partnered sexual activities, the prevalence of men who had incorporated a vibrator into sexual activities during their lives was 44.8%, with 10.0% having done so in the past month, 14.2% in the past year, and 20.5% over 1 year ago. Men who had used vibrators, particularly those with more recent use, were more likely to report participation in sexual health promoting behaviors, such as testicular self-exam. Men who had used vibrators recently also scored higher on four of the five domains of the International Index of Erectile Function (erectile function, intercourse satisfaction, orgasmic function, and sexual desire).
Conclusions. Among men in the United States, vibrator use during solo and partnered sexual interactions is common and is associated with a wide array of positive sexual health characteristics. Future research should continue to explore ways in which men incorporate vibrators into solo sexual acts, partnered sexual play, and sexual intercourse.

No a todos los comentarios que he citado ha sido porque no se creyeran lo del 45%, a algunos ha sido sólo por aportar datos a su argumento; cada cual que entienda, según lo que haya escrito.
#83#82Y dos apuntes: 1.- Culo tenemos todos. Si vosotros podeis meter la polla en uno, os aseguro que en el vuestro también cabe un vibrador. Si vosotros podéis dar placer penetrando a alguien analmente, os aseguro que también podéis sentirlo. Que tengáis prejuicios, es otro asunto.
No, si no es una cuestión de prejuicios. Es una cuestión de estadística. A mí me encanta leer a Homero, pero si me dijeran que el 45% de la población ha leído la Ilíada y la Odisea, pues como que no me lo creería (aunque ojalá estuviera equivocado). Con esto lo mismo. No digo que mientan los autores del estudio ni los encuestados, ni que me parezca bien ni mal, pero sigo pensando que me lo comenzaré a creer cuando esté más contrastado, para asegurar que la muestra es realmente aleatoria.
Uno de los puntos me parecen extraños es que un vibrador es un objeto bastante específico; no es un tipo cualquiera de consolador, sino uno que vibra, y eso está muy bien para las mujeres, pero no sé yo si para los hombres es un factor importante. Me temo que no. Lo que vengo a decir es que, aún suponiendo que realmente un 45% de los hombres hubieran usado un consolador (algo ya harto discutible), me parece muy difícil que en la mayoría de los casos fueran concretamente vibradores.
Si realmente esta cifra fuese cierta, ¿cuál sería el porcentaje total de hombres que habrían usado consoladores en general (incluyendo "vaginas en lata" y cosas así)? Presumiblemente mucho más. ¿60%? ¿75%? No son cifras creíbles.
#84#82#83 Como bien dice Donatien, no es cuestión de que nos parezca bien o mal. A mí me parece perfecto que la gente se meta por los orificios lo que quieran o al menos lo que les quepa. Pero al igual que respeto mucho al colectivo gay y soy un gran defensor de su causa, si alguien me dijera que el 50% de los hombres son homosexuales, no me lo creería
Y estoy seguro que entre mis amigos me llevaría una sorpresa, pero el 50% de ellos no creo que me sorprendieran. Y me considero una persona muy normal y bastante abierta sexualmente.
Que nadie se sienta ofendido porque no me lo crea, los que lo usen que lo disfruten con salud

2.- Si Phillips y BRAUN se han decidido a fabricar vibradores, es que son un electrodoméstico muuuuuuy vendido.
