Maggie Gyllenhaal Lends Friends Her Sex Toys

We’ve heard of borrowing your friend’s books, or maybe a dress from time to time, but their sex toys?!!
Jake Gyllenhaal’s sister, Maggie, is obviously the caring sharing kind of pal, as she admits that she loves to lend her friends her vibrators.
The actress is currently starring in new movie Hysteria – which is set in the Victorian era and is about the invention of the sex toy – and she was bombarded with the pleasurable devices during shooting, so now she lends the unwanted ones to her chums to enjoy.
She said: “By the time I finished the movie I'd been sent maybe 15 vibrators by different people in London with vibrator stores. It was a pleasant surprise.
“So I have this incredible collection, and I actually use like one or two of them. I lend them to my friends, and they’ll take them for six months at a time."
Maggie says she was drawn to Hysteria because she was keen to see how the vibrator was invented as well as being interested in "female sexuality".

Speaking at a press conference, she said: "I decided to do it because I was also interested in female sexuality, although that makes it so scientific. I don't know many people who aren't interested in female sexuality.
"I was curious about the invention of the vibrator. It's unusual when you read a romantic comedy where you're curious about what's going to happen. Basically I'm always looking for freedom, for a way to be free in my work."
