“Should Be Arrested”: Internet Furious At Mom For Giving Intimate Toy To Daughter “Too Early”
Brazilian actress Claudia Raia is facing backlash after sharing that she gifted an intimate toy to her daughter when she turned 12.
The 58-year-old recently appeared on Goucha, a TV show in Portugal, to promote her play Menopausia (Menopause).
At one point during the interview, Claudia opened up about the importance of intimate toys and self-pleasure. “The ‘pepeka’, as we say in Brazil, cannot be neglected,” she said.
Highlights
- Actress Claudia Raia faced criticism for gifting an intimate toy to her 12-year-old daughter.
- Many internet users said the gift was inappropriate for her daughter's age.
- Claudia was previously criticized for having a child at the age of 55.
When her daughter Sofia, whom she shares with actor Edson Celulari, turned 12, she gave her a controversial gift.
“I gave her a v*brator and said: ‘Go investigate yourself, go find out what you like.'”

“Today, v*brators are prescription toys,” the actress said, sharing that she owns 17 intimate toys that she uses “depending on [her] mood.”
While many praised Claudia’s approach as educational, most people found the gift highly inappropriate given her daughter’s age.
“She’s not even embarrassed to say such a thing,” one user wrote.
“Knowing that a father or mother would do this kind of thing, destroying their child’s innocence. A person like that must be sick,” another added.

“This woman is crazy! Clueless!” said a third, while a separate user labeled Claudia’s behavior as “concerning.”
Someone else commented: “It’s best to talk, explain, and guide girls. There’s no need to give them a v*brator.”
“I don’t think it’s wrong, but at this age, isn’t it too early to think about a v*brator?” asked another scandalized user.
“She should be arrested,” another person simply said.

During the interview, Claudia also spoke aboutmenopause, saying that it’s still a taboo subject and that many women lose the desire for intimacy at this stage of life.
“Vaginal dryness, discomfort during intercourse… There are many variants, many discomforts at the same time, and, with the lack of desire, why would you hurt yourself with something you don’t even feel like doing?” she said, as perPublico.
However, the soap opera star said this reality does not apply to her.
“[My] desire remains and is strong,” she shared, adding that hormone replacement therapy helped her maintain a high libido.
“Toys help a lot. Today, v*brators are considered toys that require a doctor’s prescription.”

In addition to Sofia, born in 2003, Claudia has twochildren: Enzo, born in 1997, and Luca, born in 2023. Her decision to becomepregnant at 55 was also met with fierce criticism from Internet users.
“I was massacred on social media. Lots of applause, affection, lots of love, but from women it’s deeper than anything,”said the artist, known as the Queen of Musicals for her contribution to Brazilian theater.
“I was in a place where women were 50 years old, on the couch, resting, their children grown up, and I had a child.
“They told me that I was old enough to be a grandmother, that my body would never come back.
“I’m not part of that generation that looks at comments, I don’t even have time for that, the people who talk to me. It affects me, but I’m not a hostage to that.”
The actress said her desire “remains strong” at 58 and discussed the changes in women’s libido during menopause

Pregnancies at the age of 50 are considered high-risk, as they can lead to preeclampsia (a type of high blood pressure that can become life-threatening), gestational diabetes, miscarriage, stillbirth, or ectopic pregnancy (when the egg is attached outside of your uterus).
When Claudia delivered her healthy boy, there were 15 people in the room.
“It was a risky situation. The anesthesiologist almost had a heart attack. I was so scared because, at 55 years old, having a baby is something very unlikely. And he was born healthy and beautiful.”
She also mentioned feeling the impact of prejudice as she aged while in the spotlight. “It’s hard, even more so when you started your career because of your beauty, your sensuality, and you had to fight to show that you had the talent to be an actress, a comedian.”
Some users found her approach educational, but the majority said it was extremely inappropriate

Honestly, I don't see what the big deal is. At 12 we were all doing something to try to get off. That being said, I'd be totally embarrassed getting this from my mom haha

I remember being that age, discovering I was carrying around a REALLY cool toy … and finding things to use on it that caused damage. I have mixed feelings about this, but ultimately think she may be helping her daughter to avoid pain, so I think I’m on her side. The people calling for her arrest are weird Victorians who prolly teach their kids to be ashamed of their bodies. 😕

While appropriate age may be in question, I have to commend her for trying to have a very positive approach to this type of discussion with her daughter. Too many women, especially from heavily religious backgrounds, refuse to have any discussion with their daughters about sexual health or pleasure, leading to people like me coming across a 27yr old woman with 5 kids who quietly whispered to me "can women have orgasms?". Sexual education is just as important as any other education, although you should find the right time/age to discuss this with your own children depending on their mental and emotional maturity. I knew everything by the time I was 8 and already started experimenting, when my grandma tried to have 'the talk' with me at 14, i laughed in her face and told her she was waaay too late for that chat, I actually had to educate her on it all cus she knew fuc*ing nothing despite having 3 kids. She didn't know women could experience sexual pleasure or how to kiss with tongue.
