PUMPFILTER Since we're talking things people use to aid them in the nasty[More:]My mom just gave me wayyyyyyyy more information than I need to know about her and my stepdad's private life.

Thus, I need considered bunny opinions: Is there really any difference between this product which is $500 and this product which is $30???

Is this for ED or a self pleasuring device?

Honest question.

Oh dear God, WolfDaddy, will you ever be able to look them in the eye again?

ED, danf.

And ... no, essexjan. No. Though I am heartened by the fact that my mom's 64 and my stepdad's 75 and they're EAGERLY awaiting the results of my ... um, research.

I believe I speak for EVERYBODY here at MetaChat when I say: WolfDaddy, you are a Good Son.

I agree with Wendell. And other than that, I'm speechless.

I'm cringing for you, WolfDaddy.

Really, folks, I'm not really put off by my mom's request for help in what we used to call "marital aids". I really am delighted that she and my stepdad apparently enjoy a healthy sex life at their age.

Okay, I am a just a little weirded out but at least my mom was bold enough to broach the topic. Even if she did go into a little more detail than I'd like.

But ... what I'm trying to figure out if there's any difference between the postvac "medical" device I linked to first from any good old fashioned penis pump. I mean, the difference in price is pretty pronounced and to my untrained eye it appears the only difference is that the "medical" device charges about 10 times more just to have "medical" in its description.

Anyone who can back me up on this, OR ARE YOU GONNA MAKE ME GO TO THE GREEN?

I definitely know which web community I would ask if I had a question about cocks.

Isn't going to the doctor and getting prescribed for a pill an option?

From what I've heard - while those things can induce tumescence "it" won't be/stay hard.

The photos really aren't high res enough, but it's quite apparent that the gaskets are helluva lot better than the cheapass one... and it looks like the "medical" one employs the use of cockrings after inflation. The pumps probably fit better and thus be able to achieve higher negative pressure.

The expensive one is likely to be made of much better (sturdier, won't break leaving sharp wrinkled penithreatening splinters) material. $500 seems like a scam, though. Do they have insurance that they can try to wrangle to cover this?

porpoise, Viagra's been considered, but it's a question of, um, duration rather than ability. More than that I don't want to know.

Medicare will cover this, I think, or their private insurance but it's not really a question of price but of "am I getting what I'm paying for". Mom saw the "medical" one on a late night informercial--setting off little alarms for me immediately--so when I checked out the site I just thought "hey! penis pump!" Then I saw the price.

I know there's pricier pumps out there that still don't come close to $500, and I think I'll recommend one of those for them. My stepdad loathes doctors. If he didn't I don't think I'd be in this boat. Whee!
