  • History, Consumer Practice and Cultural Texts About the Vibrator
    Automatic Lover1 - History, Consumer Practice and Cultural Texts about the Vibrator Autoria: Luciana Castello da Costa Leme Walther Abstract: The idea for this exploratory study arose during a previous research on the emergence of a more overt female consumer of erotic products. The ethnographic method was used then, comprising in-depth interviews and participant observation at women-only sex shops in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which is popularly and scholarly known as a highly sexualized culture. During interviews with shop attendants, an episode of “Sex and the City” was repeatedly mentioned as the reason for which the so-called Rabbit vibrator became the best sold item in all stores visited by the researcher. Therefore, studying the vibrator as a commoditized product and understanding the way consumers deal with its representation in cultural texts seemed like a promising path of investigation. Thus, the aim of this study is twofold: (1) to further understand, with a cultural approach, how women in Brazil create and negotiate meaning through erotic consumption; and (2) to examine, with a marketing approach, the effectiveness of product placement as a tool to market sex to women, considering consumers’ interpretive strategies. In this study, we applied Hirschman, Scott and Wells’ Model of Product Discourse (1998) to consumption practices and cultural texts about the vibrator. This model assumes that, in order to acquire meaning, any good must go through a process that will culturally construct it as a symbol and hierarchically place it amidst a product constellation or object system. Therefore, understanding how goods acquire meaning is as important as understanding what they mean.

Good Vibrations: Charting the Dominant and Emergent Discursive Regimes of Sex Toys Abstract Sex toys promote a new consumptive ethos whose significance may be adequately outlined by attending to the institutional implications of this product category’s consumption. By drawing on Foucault’s theory of sexuality and the technologies of the self that materialize with the aid of discursive formations about sexuality, as well as on relevant sociological and ethnographic insights, I undertake a qualitative content analysis on a corpus of 100 sex toys’ product reviews from popular magazines and web sites in order to identify how the discourse about sex toys is articulated in terms of three dominant categories of sexual scripts (Simon & Gagnon, 2007), viz. cultural scenarios, interpersonal scripts and intrapsychic scripts.
