High tech features on the SexFit include LED lights (five of them!) that indicate when desired thrusting levels are reached. The SexFit also has Bluetooth capabilities, much like a FitBit, so your data can be tracked online or via apps that work on most computers, tablets, and smartphones. You can even set your SexFit up to share your progress on social media. While some might deem that an unnecessary overshare, I think I would find my friends sex stats much more interesting than the countless other, mundane, things that get posted to Facebook.
Perhaps the most compelling feature of the SexFit isn't the LED light show or the Bluetooth connectivity, but rather its ability to vibrate at predetermined intervals. Seriously ladies, how long have we been waiting for men's penises to evolve into vibrating dildos?
While the SexFit promises to be a fun little toy, there are some unsettling aspects to consider. For one thing, the category of "sexual fitness" includes far more than thrusting speed and basic erection maintenance. It's something couples work on together to ensure the comfort, health, and satisfaction of both partners. Most of us have managed to figure out how to engage in healthy and fulfilling sex without the aid of flashing lights and automatic tweets. To add, not only is the idea of a penis with flashing lights a little troubling, I'm also not sure I trust a cock-ring, no matter how high tech, to post to social media on my behalf.
