Rabbit vibrators originated in Japan in the 1980s. They were initially introduced by the Japanese company Vibratex. The design of the rabbit vibrator was inspired by a combination of the traditional phallic-shaped vibrator and a popular Japanese anime series called “Himitsu no Akko-chan,” which featured a magical rabbit-like creature.

The iconic design of the rabbit vibrator features a main shaft for penetration and a smaller appendage, often shaped like bunny ears, that provides clitoral stimulation simultaneously. This dual stimulation is what sets rabbit vibrators apart from other types of vibrators and makes them popular among individuals seeking both internal and external pleasure.

Rabbit vibrators gained international attention and became widely popular after an appearance in the American television show “Sex and the City” in the late 1990s. Since then, rabbit vibrators have evolved and are available in various sizes, materials, and functionalities to cater to different preferences and needs.
