As researchers discover more and more about our bodies, particularly our reproductive anatomy, we've witnessed a slew of strange and even dangerous products hit store shelves. While strange, the Viberect is certainly not dangerous and even recently received [FDA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myhixel-iii) approval. Vibrating at very high frequencies (70 to 110 Hz) for about 12 minutes, this automated stimulator is capable of arousing anyone, including individuals with erectile dysfunction or spinal cord damage. Although it may seem like a crude device building atop of the success of [female vibrators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dott-wand), the Viberect is meant to reintroduce sexual pleasure as an outlet to terminally ill or paralyzed patients.
