What a Female Engineer Does for Fun...

Take one female engineer, one who happens to be dissatisfied with her latest vibrator (of the “sex toy” variety).  Add a bent for hacking, ownership of a 3D printer, and the know-how to do all this.  What do you suppose you get?  She calls it “hacking her vagina”.  Some might call it the ultimate vibrator.  To any geek, male or female, it's a fascinating read – mostly written in the same dry, detailed style another geek might have written up something like a voice-controlled lamp dimmer.

One thing that occurred to me as I was reading her post: unless she is incredibly naive (and her style makes me doubt that), posting this article took quite a bit of courage.  Presumably Beth has a job, and colleagues...and most likely some of them read her blog.  That ought to make for some coffee room conversations that are a bit, er, racier than the usual variety!
