![]() (Image by Public domain (in the US and other countries), Author: unspecified) Details Source DMCA | Giving out prescriptions for vibrators seems more like a doctor's bad pickup line than good public policy. But in Sandy Springs, Georgia, you really do need a medical reason -- and a doctor's prescription -- to buy a sex toy. Melissa Davenport, a resident of Sandy Springs, has filed suit against the city because, as her lawyer Gerry Weber told a local TV station, the ordinance allows the government to "stick its nose in your bedroom and say you can use this but not that." Davenport has multiple sclerosis, which she says has impacted her sex life with her husband, and she credits sex toys with saving her marriage. Yet her doctors still won't write her a prescription. Which is ironic, considering that the vibrator was actually invented, in Victorian times, to induce orgasm in order to cure a (fake) medical condition: hysteria. |
