Some might say, Dan Grossman, that discretion is the better part of valour when disclosing your vibrator purchases on the internet.
I actually don't care, I just found it funny that you're posting under your real name without shame. It's refreshing, but I think it's also one of the ways techies are significantly different than the rest of the population.
- baddox 10y agoIs that a reasonable thing to be ashamed of? Sure, it's a private topic that you might not discuss casually with your parents or priest, but I would stop short of calling it something to be ashamed of.

- alpha_squared 10y agoI think it's fascinating that societies swing back and forth, like the pendulum of a grandfather clock, between liberal and conservative accepted social norms. I wonder if these swings become more pronounced or less over time.
- clarebear 10y agoI have no personal knowledge of Dan Grossman, but in my experience, techie guys might over report indications of sexual activity and prowess on the internet ;-)
- 5ilv3r 10y agoTechies are data driven folks. You're thinking of the REST of humanity.
- freehunter 10y agoYeah because being the SOAP of humanity is so last year.
- StavrosK 10y agoThartos would never overreport.
- mulmen 10y agoThat is an exceptional and unfair characterization of all men.
- sanswork 10y ago>Some might say Yeah but who wants to listen to people that would judge stuff like a couple buying a toy.
- pbhjpbhj 10y agoDon't these comments just show that people don't reallly care about privacy on such things. They want the attention more than they want to keep it private at least. Isn't the supposed demand for discretion the whole point, the rest of the thread seems to be taking as read that people don't want anyone to find out about their vibrator use - yet here we are and [some of] the people actually affected want us all to know they used the device. CoolGuySteve's comment seems apposite. Of course his last sentence may be correct but that's to be shown.
