A rabbit vibrator is an internal shaft and an external arm joined at the base, each with its own motor, so that two places are reached at once. It is the most popular shape in the category and the most body-dependent one, because the distance between the shaft and the arm is fixed by the product and has to match the person. This guide explains how the two parts work together and how to choose a shape that will fit rather than one that only looks right.
How dual stimulation works
The shaft is inserted and its curve directs the tip towards the front wall; the arm sits outside and rests against the clitoris. With both motors running, the two sensations are felt together, which is the point of the design. With one motor off, the product works as a G-spot vibrator or as an external vibrator, and that flexibility is worth having: many people use a rabbit with only one motor for most of a session. The rabbit in this range has a curved shaft, a flexible arm, ten patterns, and motors that can run together or separately, in the maker's stated silicone with USB charging.
The measurement that matters
Listings give insertable length and diameter, and both matter, but the figure that decides whether a rabbit works is the one no listing gives: the distance from the shaft to the arm. Bodies differ by a few centimetres here, and a rabbit whose arm lands in the wrong place is a product that gets no use. Two things help. A flexible arm, which bends to cover a range of distances, and a curved shaft, which brings the arm closer to the body as the shaft is angled. Rigid arms on straight shafts are the ones to avoid unless you already know they fit.
Picking a shape
Shaft curve. A gentle curve suits most people; a strong curve is for someone who already knows a strong curve works for them.
Shaft diameter. Width is felt far more than length. The rabbit here is about 3.5 centimetres across from the maker's drawing, which is average; if you own something you find comfortable, measure it and compare.
Arm. Flexible rather than rigid, and short rather than long, because a short arm sits closer and a long one has to reach.
Controls. Separate control of the two motors, as here, or at least a button that turns one of them off.
Why it is a second purchase
A rabbit asks you to know two things about yourself: what you like externally and what you like internally. A bullet answers the first and a slim G-spot shape answers the second, and both are cheaper than a rabbit. Someone who has used both can read a rabbit listing and know whether the geometry will suit them; someone buying blind is guessing. If a rabbit is your first product anyway, choose one with a flexible arm and a curved shaft and treat the first few uses as finding out what the shape does.
Using one
Charge fully, wash, and use a water-based lubricant on the shaft. Start with the shaft motor off and the arm on, find the position where the arm rests comfortably, then switch the shaft motor on at its lowest setting. Angling the handle changes where both parts sit, which is the main adjustment available; small changes of angle make large differences.
Cleaning
Rinse with the charging contacts away from the water, soap the shaft and arm with your hand, rinse again and dry fully before charging. The join between shaft and arm collects residue, so give it a moment. The maker publishes no waterproof rating, so do not submerge it.
