just a heads up to people who want jelly style vibrators: before you buy a jelly vibrator, i know this sounds insane, but smell it first and if it has a strong rubbery smell PUT IT DOWN AND FIND ANOTHER ONE. you want to steer clear of these because there is a substance called phalates(spelled right?) in some jelly vibrators and dildos. this is a dangerous product. if you are not sure, the toy's package will usually say "phalate free"

@actinggirl333 Is it just jelly ones or any sex toy? My buttplugs and suction cup dildo smell rubbery. What exactly is the cause of alarm from these?  Cervical/vaginal cancer or rectal cancer?

@jrg305 its usually the jelly ones and i dont know much about what it causes but i know for a fact that phalates are very bad for you and when you use a vibrator that contains this the chemical will leech into your body going directly into your body. im not an expert by any means im only 19 but all i know is that you dont want to use one. it will be a bit more expensive but go for silicone. theres a product called tantus that makes buttplugs with 100% silicone(not a paid advertisement)
