Good Vibrations

Color us impressed. For the third year in a row, Phoenix readers’ favorite erotic-gifts store is perhaps the female friendliest of them all, and in an unlikely spot — the stroller-swamped sidewalks of Brookline’s Coolidge Corner. Tucked unassumingly betwixt an alleyway, a Gap, and a parking lot is GOOD VIBRATIONS, a utopia of “adult products” — primarily its namesake, the vibrator, but also films and harnesses, among other things — in an office-like setting that seems better fit for a cell-phone store. Here you’ll find a vibrator disguised as a rubber duckie (I Rub My Duckie Jr., $12), a vibrator powered by your iPod (Naughtibod, $69), glass dildos ($225), and, of course, the Rabbit (and many Rabbit look-a-likes), the bunny-like self-love tool made famous by Sex and the City. Don’t miss the mini-museum of antique vibrators in the back — it’ll make you appreciate modern sex-toy technology even more.
