Where do I hide a vibrator?

How do I hide a vibrator?

Okay, that may sound super weird, but I am 20 years old, still living with my parents and I just ordered my first toy. A mini vibrator in color black.

Now, I don’t want my father to find out, that will be… uncomfortable to say the least.

The issue? We have fun transparency in this house. Not the bad way. We just don’t need that much privacy. They open my drawers if they are bored and so do I, it’s just our thing and no one is bothered by that.

I could just hide it in my nightstand but it will inevitably be found. My wardrobe is not a good option either. Not much to hide in there. Huge but tidy and can be easily spotted. The one place I thought of is my bookshelf, which no one touches (yes I am that obsessed haha) but I was wondering if you girls have any other ideas? Thanks!

    Under your mattress?

    Not a girl, nor am I gay, but I got a little brother. The place where I hide my things is under my bed’s mattress. Nobody will find it, especially if your bed has drawers on the side.

    Under a blanket, stuffed animal, dirty laundry, basically literally anywhere they most likely won’t touch
    If you ever keep empty boxes incase you need to return stuff, you can put it in there. Above your closet if you have a little shelf to put thing above the clothes

    You’ll find a place, just get creative & think hard about what they would be least likely to touch/open up/move around.
    Also edit but I pray some day you get the luxury of leaving your vibrator in your nightstand just as it cause that’s
    Lovely

    Just at your disposal. Ready for service!

    Do you have a closet? Find a random shirt with a little pocket or a jacket hanging up. Your family will not go through all the pockets of your clothing, especially if it’s blended into other clothing well.

    Honestly if they find it they find it. I keep mine in my nightstand. If you go in my drawers and see something then idk what to tell you.

    They do sell hollow book safes if you want to keep it on your bookshelf.

    Not a girl, but what about put it in a sock and then roll the socks together so it’s inside it. From the outside it’s just another sock in a sock drawer

    Put it in the air vet in the wall

    Guess what. The “transparency” you view as fun is actually poor boundaries, and you’re only now just becoming aware of it.

    If your parents act or acted this way, and/or allowed or encouraged you to, they have groomed you in the family ways of poor boundaries and privacy.

    Most people, when they are growing up, find things in their parents’ bedside table or underwear drawer that make them uncomfortable. If their parents don’t explicitly tell them not to open those drawers, they just kind of get the message themselves that this is where we keep private things, and we stop snooping. Parents typically do the same, especially for a child about whom they have no particular worries, and certainly not looking in those spots once the child is of age. And prior to that a parent might peek, just to make sure there’s nothing unsafe in there (they do have responsibility for care and safety after all until their child is of age), but they typically would be discreet and not mention any sex toys or lube or condoms they find, or even that they looked. If there’s nothing dangerous, they’d just pretend they didn’t.

    So while a lot of people here have good suggestions about where to hide things, if I were you, I’d be making plans to move out. Either that, or confront your family about their habits, which I’m guessing you don’t want to do. You’ll probably have to someday, but that is more easily done from a position of independence.

    Good luck. Have fun. Maybe get a therapist sometime if you feel you could use some support (which is preferable to feeling like you need to deceive people or change others to exist comfortably).

    Also… I’d buy a good sized, thick, hard cover book at a used book store or goodwill and use a razor blade to cut a cavity out of the pages and keep your stuff there.

    I have this vision that if/when I die, my son (36) will either make his wife go through my bedside table, or pick it up without opening it and leave it by the curb on trash day. That man would NOT want to see what’s in there, and I suspect knows it! 🤣

    At least I keep a well stocked liquor cabinet for guests. If he did open the drawer himself, he could take the edge off with a shot of single malt.

    Get a hollow lamp, peel the felt cover back on the bottom and stick it in there.

    just keep it somewhere handy and let them find it and then maybe they’ll start to mind their own damn business.

    I used to hide things in my pillow. I just happened to grow up with the kind of pillows that have zippers on them. I actually still have those types of pillows now lol.

    Just hang a few off the ceiling and say it’s a mobile sculpture.

    Maybe a thick like 400 page book that you don’t want that is not interesting to anyone. Then you take a razor knife and cut out a rectangle in, say pages 40 to 350. Then put it in the hollow box that’s created.

    Or put it in the pocket of a pair of jeans that don’t fit you that’s hanging in the closet that no one will borrow or give away.

    Buy a peluche or two, unstitch the back and make space for the vibrator. You can stitch a zip or two buttons on the back. Add a piece of paper when you put it back so that the piece of paper is seen first, and write into it “please respect this personal space”.

    Another option is to leave loose stitches so that it’s less evident and you can still open it.

    This should do unless you use something massive. If that’s the case and you possess a desk, using something like adhesive Velcro you can work out a pouch that can be easily be attached there out of sight. Other common places are anywhere there is a “dead corner” so a place where you need to climb under and look up to be able to see it.

    A last option I can think of is to become a follower of some cult or religion like Buddhism: with enough experience and practice/prayer you may get access to acquire an artifact, a gohonzon, which you could – as per standard practice – keep inside a case of various form and shape. As a consequence you could ask your family to respect that holy space. This seems like a longer effort, as it takes a while to be entitled to a gohonzon depending on the cult, but it has the benefit that you can tell them “I’m going to pray, please do not disturb me for 1 hour” and then bang yourself into oblivion with a relaxing privacy.

    Also you can ask your mom “hey mom where could I put something very personal I’d rather not discuss with you or anybody?” – she will suggest a place which work a “safe agreed space” and the assumption they respect it, although they will probably check and not tell you, which is fine.

    You got a tiny one which makes things easier to hide. Mind you I’m a man but I had my things I wanted to hide from my rents. I cut a small hole in my box spring under my bed and stored things in there.

    No one ever goes in my ugly fluffy socks. But also now I’m older I literally have them under lock and key in a lockable medication box I bought on Amazon.

    I don’t hide mine, but they’re subtly out of eyeshot.

    If you have shoes or a shoe box in the back of your closet but it in a baggie and hide it in the shoes?

    Also could always buy a little safe to keep it in among other things!

    honestly, no privacy never sounds much fun at all, but my preferred solution here would be the adult option.

    tell them you keep your personal adult items in a given place and ask them to respect that places privacy.

    hiding it is just silly and won’t do much more than keep you on your toes and anxious about it being spotted.

    I found on Amazon a box which looks like a book but it can be like closed with a lock. Maybe something like that haha? Maybe if you type something like ‘book storage box’ on amazon you might find what I mean haha

    Modify a stuffed animal and add a hidden pocket with a discreet zipper?

    Imho, you’re 20. If he’s snooping in your panty drawer and finds a vibrator,

    1. that’s his problem
    2. you’re an adult with needs
    3. I guarantee he masturbates too
    4. serves him right for being nosey
    5. who TF goes snooping in their daughters panties!? Transparency or not that’s beyond fucked up.

    In with your items you use for your period.

    Carve out parts of a book and place it in there.
