Bright Idea
In fine demonstration of the adage, “necessity is the mother of invention”, the Fleshlight was the brainchild of Steve Shubin, a former Los Angeles police officer whose wife was in the midst of a high-risk pregnancy and was told to avoid intercourse. In brainstorming substitutes he could use during his wife's pregnancy—he thought inflatable dolls with plastic vaginas were too tacky—he hit upon the idea of creating a realistic body sculpture with orifices that could be used for solo sex, then removed for cleaning.
Almost as Good as the Real Thing
The Fleshlight secured a place in the sex toy hall of fame thanks to the invention of a extremely lifelike material called cyberskin. Using this material, and the realistic molds the inventors got by going to strip clubs and offering dancers $100 an hour to sit for a casting of their genitals, this penis sleeve quickly found into men’s toys chests around the world.
Shubin and his partners initially thought their main market would be medical, so they pitched the Fleshlight Vulva to former Surgeon General (and masturbation advocate) Joycelyn Elders, the Centers for Disease Control, AIDS researchers, and other like-minded professionals. They all loved Fleshlight, but were of the opinion that it should be sold to the general public. Aren't you lucky?
Famous Person Who Should’ve Owned One
Given that the Fleshlight was invented in 1998, the same year the President Clinton/Monica Lewinsky scandal broke, we’d wager the course of history might’ve changed had Bill’s cigar box contained a Fleshlight.
