Ok that add for this thing seems to be up there quite often so I gotta ask. How good is that thing? Say the combo type one. Does it really help out for angles and different positions for support ect? or does it seem like a waste? Seems like not a bad idea for future fun keeping a marriage going in the sexual department.

Liberator


i always thought it was a waste, but then i saw the one that has the foot and handcuffs attached to it and i cant get it out of my head! lol
they are pretty expensive though...
I think you can make each of them like that. Not positive but it seems like you can choose if you want the original or more of a S&M type. I love that idea haha.
I would think pillows and a little ingenuity would save you alot of money.
Chairs, countertops, pillows...hell even a bath pillow, a round pillow (like for your neck) or a set of padded stairs can make sex just as interesting
Sometime props like the back of a car, a swingset, or a city rooftop can be quite liberating. :D
I ordered one for Christmas - wedge/ramp combo. I have to tell you that I was really quite surprised with the results. These people are geniuses. It is a million times better than a pillow. It's really kicked the pleasure up a notch for my wife. Was pricey but totally worth it. Storing it is kind of a pain though - doesn't fit under the bed. We tell the kids it's mommy's reading pillow, lol.

:eek: :D LOL!!!!
I've only heard good things about the Liberator. I've never tried it, but would love to. One of these days, I hope.
Actually, you could save a lot of bank and just get the Wedge. We get the most use out of that plus it's easier to stash away.....
Throwing in scientist's perspective here.....
Often pillows and locations other than the bed offer nice changes in angles and support, however very intense movements easily smush pillows and cause the people to shift and angles to change. That's actually a problem with my memory foam mattress as well. Some of my gf's favorite positions are bent over and some of mine are on top angled deeply towards her posterior fornix. Years of wear and tear in my previous career have left my joints pretty beat up and sex marathons can become difficult in some of our favorite positions so I was considering a Ramp or making one myself. The goal is to angle her upwards when I'm on top so there is less stress on my neck and arms, and when she's on top allow her to work with less stress on her knees and support her body when bent over to prevent tiny shifts that cause us to lose rhythm on spots.
Most of the medical orthopedic wedges I've seen are made out of a high density support foam, but the kind that only stands up to resting calmly on them and would quickly deteriorate and lose their shape during activities like sex. They are also lower heights. The more durable memory foam ones, if solid, would conform too much and the bodies sinking deeply into them would get in the way of things. To me, an ideal sex ramp would consist of a lightweight sturdy core like a carbon fiber shell(but of cheaper material) with a sturdy support foam layer on top of it and finally an inch of memory foam for comfort. Something like that would hold people in place firmly but comfortably while providing support and elevation to lessen stress on the joints holding positions during rigorous activity.
Is the Liberator Ramp merely an overpriced a chunk of sturdy foam with a cover and good advertising? Or does it have a firm and long lasting support core covered in foam? If it's the latter, then it's not too unreasonable a price because it would definitely be better than a pillow. It would cost about $60-80 to get a sturdy core, wrap it in fiberglass, cover it in 2 layers of foam, make a waterproof layer, and then you'd still need a nice cover. Throw in the time it takes to construct it and shop for materials and $120 doesn't seem so expensive anymore.
My wife bought the wedge/ramp combo and the cube a few years ago. The cube is used the least. It is ok against our bed with me on the bottom against the bed. The wedge is what we use the most. It gives us the extra height for doing it doggy style. They are very firm as my wife uses the cube as a seat without a problem.
