Buy Your Teen Daughter’s First Vibrator, Says Oprah’s “Sexpert”

Posted by Cole Gamble at 2:00 PM on April 22, 2009

Quick disclosure, sex talk has never been taboo in my house. For my 22-year-old sister’s Christmas present, my dad and stepmum bought her a dildo. As my sister limply grasped the 10-inch tower of giggling, Fire Engine Red rubberized flesh, my dad sincerely said, “You haven’t dated in awhile. We thought you’d need one.”

So, onto the topic of sex talks and your kids. Some people, like Oprah’s gal pal Gayle, think girls get too much sex info these days. O’s on-call sex expert, Dr. Laura Berman, (couldn’t we all use an on-call sex expert?) says the more info the better. For example, says Dr. Berman, get that girl a vibrator.

Yeah, this freaks parents out, but Berman asserts it’s important for a girl to understand her own body. When you put it that away, is she wrong?
