The I Rub My Duckie (Travel Paris model) reminds you that everything we needed to know, we learned in Kindergarten. Just take a look at public broadcasting fave Sesame Street. Jim Henson and his crew of puppets taught us about all the important stuff like recycling, racial diversity, spelling. Ernie, one half of S. Street’s same-sex power couple – (hello, you know he was boning Bert during those cartoon breaks) taught us perhaps, one of the most important things: the joys of bathtime with rubber ducky in hand. It could only have been better if this life lesson included an instructional on how to work your shower head.
When I Rub My Duckie first waddled onto the scene, the vibrating ducks set a new standard in pleasurable playtime. In or out of the tub, the ducks are disguised as good clean fun – perfect for stashing next to the bubble bath or shelving along with other kitschy knick knacks. No one will ever know the difference. The toys that have followed since the original are more than mere knockoffs. With different outfits, colors, sizes, and styles, there’s a friend for everyone.
I’m definitely that person that makes sure to bag the mini shampoos and conditioners that come with my hotel room. More than just a general sign of my frugal side, it’s all about having a stash of the things you need everyday to pack up and throw in a suitcase for a weekend trip or more. So a travel size vibrator? More important than any itty bitty tube of toothpaste on my journeys.
The Travel Paris model is perfect for orgasms on the go. In pearly pink, black and white, this version is somehow pretty, cute, and sexy all in one. Little touches like a Swarovski crystal on the beak and a detachable maribou feather boa around the neck may be a little much, but when it comes down to it, the water(proof) fowl’s quack is as good as its bite. The Paris rings up at around $18.99 and only takes one AAA battery (not included). A little screw on the bottom keeps it firmly in place no matter how hard you splash around. There's only one setting to the vibrations, but they're powerful. There's nothing silly about this sex toy when it's in action! Its smooth curves let you work it and rock it against your clit until climax. Even better, I found that you can bust out the Duckie with your partner for fun in the tub or on dry land. My man was really into it, and we admittedly got on YouTube afterwards to find our favorite Sesame St. clips, making a rubber duck vibrator the best foreplay for sex (which we also did afterwards…) and a little reminiscing.
If I didn’t live in New York City, I’m sure I could truthfully sing, “I Rub My Duckie, you’re the one! You make bathtime lots of fun!” Instead, bathtime is a bit cramped, (think more like, stand-up showertime,) making the travel-size version of this little buzzing bird that much more appropriate. An ideal toy for the young and horny at heart, I Rub My Duckie is the one for you. Ernie would be proud. IRubMyDuckieParisTravelEdition
