What are Ben Wa Balls?

The origin of Ben Wa Balls take roots in Japan, where women would spend leisure hours releasing from sexual tension. Japanese women stored these precious balls in the plush pouch and use them for erotic stimulation.
Usually Ben Wa Balls look like a two balls that can go separately or are connected by a cord for more convenient retrieval. Ben Wa Balls are made of different materials, like metal, plastic or having various substances (like mercury) that fill the hollow balls. Some exquisite Ben Wa Balls are made of precious metals-silver or gold.
How to use Ben Wa Balls
- Kegel exercising
Originally Ben Wa Balls were designed for exercising vaginal muscles. A woman could insert them inside vagina and wear these balls all day long or during some daily activities.
The idea is to hold Ben Wa Balls inside and not to let them fall out. Such a fun activity is not only entertaining but also very helpful in strengthening your pelvic muscles. As you contract and relax your PC muscles, Ben Wa Balls will additionally stimulate your vaginal walls which have great benefits on your sexual performance, and that means:- You have better control over intercourse. When you learn to squeeze and loosen vaginal muscles, you become more responsible of your pleasure and orgasm.
- You increase your vaginal sensitivity. For those women who never achieved vaginal orgasm it's one of the most effective methods to shift the focus on the vaginal area if they had only clitoral orgasms.
- Your partner experiences more pleasure. It feels different when he simply penetrates you and when he is stimulated as you tighten your pelvic muscles.
- Delicate stimulation
Ben Wa Balls are kind of sex toys that are usually considered as delicate or rather sensual by nature. You are unlikely to expect strong or very intense sensations at least if you compare it with a vibrator for clitoral or vaginal stimulation.
In order to engage Ben Wa Balls into solo play you will need take your time and relax. As it was said stimulation with this sex toy will resemble more of quiet and sensual meditation than impetuous buzz of your vibrator. Ben Wa Balls are foremost vaginal toys and you may also use them for full-body massage, your vagina will be most receptive to the tingling of this sex toy.
The best position for erotic stimulation is lying on the back when its easier to insert and enjoy the play. After the insertion you need to slightly move your body, swinging back forward or sidewards, while balls are striking each other and rolling inside your vagina. The pleasant vibrations that result from such stimulation can give absolutely unique feeling. - Couple's fun
Some partners enjoy Ben Wa Balls as an additional stimulator during the intercourse. The idea is to insert the balls inside the vagina as your partner penetrates you, but this practice requires a careful approach and some experience in order to derive the pleasure. Your partner will have to insert his penis partially as pushing balls all the way to the cervix may feel uncomfortable for a woman.
Although it would be quite difficult for a man to sustain such delicate and slow penetration for a long time, Ben Wa Balls can add some spice to the usual intercourse.

I don't think that _all_ of the balls in cases are Ben Wa Balls specifically. We have some, and they are small and look like the ones pictured above. The large ones with bells in them and such were for hands, at least thats what I've always been told.
Dear "Displayed at Work":
I think you're confusing these smaller "Ben Wa" balls with another, far more common Chinese item, Baoding Balls. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baoding_Balls They are larger, and in fact are for exercising the hands.
I think you owe your co-worker an apology.
Actually, I grew up believing they really were hand massagers and played with them as a kid. If you've ever seen the Labyrinth with David Bowie, where he does that trick with the glowing balls, rolling them around in his hand? That's what we thought they were for, for strenghtening hands and for meditative purposes. :)
The balls were always out and displayed in Chinese stores, painted very prettily in their boxes, came in a variety of sizes, and made cool noises when you rolled them in your hand.
So hey, I think a co-worker has the right to keep 'em on her desk if she wants to. When you get right down to it, anything can be a sex object, and two small, metal balls don't usually ping "awkward!" signals.
I have a coworker that moved her desk near my area, and she had on display 2 boxes of ben wa balls. She must've thought it was a cute artsy thing?...
It bothered me for them to be seen there day after day. In a business environment.
I told my boss it should not be out, and it should be put away.
She did not know what they were for, and she said the box said they were 'hand massagers.'
'Not where I'm from,' I said. I guess being from HI, we know more of asian cultures and such. I do not see this as a hand massager.
Maybe I should bring a vibrator to work and say, oh, I'm going to massage my neck...
Give me a break?!
