The Future of Pleasure: How Technology is shaping Today’s Sex Toy Trends
If you've watched Barbarella or Sleeper one too many times and have been anxiously awaiting the future of sci-fi sex robots and orgasm machines, your time is now. Today's most exciting sex toys are using technology to push the boundaries of play, both alone and with a partner.

Inflating the Anal Hype – Truth or Bust?
Inflatable anal toys are one of those mysterious adult products associated with fetishism and considered too “hardcore” for many people. In my experience more people will reach for a large butt plug over and expandable one. Are back-door inflatables really worth the hype or is this a novelty you should leave on the shelf? I personally think they are a wonderful invention worth consideration. This is why:

E.V.A. (Extreme Vibrating Action) Massager Review
When I first looked at it I wasn’t expecting much. The shape was strange. The length and bulbous head suggest it’s a g-spot toy, however, I was skeptical because it seemed to lack the firmness needed to effectively stimulate the g-spot. I also automatically question anything that claims “extreme vibration.” I have a clit of steel. I need something just short of a jackhammer to get me off.

Why Men Don’t Always Want Sex
This is a touchy subject, but I don’t feel like having sex all the time anymore. Surprise! I’m getting older. Soon I will be 44 years of age. I am into alternate sexual practices; I’m in an open relationship, BDSM, and have multiple sexual partners. I should always be in the mood, right? Wrong!

Rechargeable Black Label Jack Rabbit Review: I’m in Vibrator Heaven!
I hit the jackpot! I won the orgasm lottery!
I have not been able to stop masturbating since California Exotics sent me the just released 30th Anniversary Black Label Rechargeable Jack Rabbit to review. It’s been about a month. I’m weak. Send food. And more lube!

Ode to Butches
I love everything about butch women, and I always have. More feminine girls just don't do anything for me sexually- I can objectively admire their beauty and sexiness, but in the end, it's when I see a woman who is androgynous, boyish, or plain out manly, my heart starts to pitter-patter. So let me sing an ode to butches here, because ...

Why We Need Sex Ed NOW (Infographic)
We need to get our act together and provide realistic, comprehensive sex ed in schools.

Happy Bisexuality Day! Why is it so Hard Being Bi?
September 23rd, 2012 is Bisexuality Day. We need more visible bisexual role-models and supporters so I’m doing my part!
I dig everyone-- dudes, chicks, people whose plumbing traditionally matches their gender, those who don’t match…

50 Shades Of Grey Library Book Club a Success!
Last night I hosted a 50 Shades of Grey Book Club at the Elmwood Park Public Library. I’ve hosted other 50 Shades book clubs but this was my first at a public library.
What a wonderful turn-out! This was the largest book club audience…

Pubic Hair: To Shave Or Not To Shave?
This is a must read article on pubic hair from Good Vibrations Blog. It's like the author, Alyssa Royse, and I are twin souls.
Like her, I didn't remove my pubic hair until well into my 30's. I can’t love my hair(less)style enough. Sometimes…

10 Sex Toys You’ve Probably Never Heard of But Should Own
As a sex educator, S&M dungeon owner (The Studio) and pleasure advocate involved in the BDSM lifestyle, I’ve had the pleasure of trying all sorts of interesting sex toys many folks don’t ever see. I’m also fortunate to be one of the people that tests, reviews and writes about new products as they come out.

Sex On Prime Time TV – Red Light District Tour on Travel Channel
The Travel Channel segment we filmed in May aired last night. Woo-hoo! It’s for a show called Extreme Tours and features some of the stops I visit hosting a Weird Chicago Tours Red Light District Tour.
Through the months of editing I kept wondering how they were going to dumb-down the sex tour for G-rated television. On the tour we don’t hold back. How was I going to do a sex toy demonstration, visit a BDSM Dungeon or do and say even a fraction of the stuff that normally occurs?

Butterfly Kiss G-spot Vibrator Sex Toy Giveaway!
Woo-hoo! It’s time for another sex toy contest! The fine folks at California Exotics have graciously sponsored this giveaway. They sent me a blue Butterfly Kiss G-spot Vibrator to give to a lucky winner!
The reviewers over at…

5 Reasons Why Female Condoms Rock My World
Female condoms feel AMAZING! As someone with a vagina I can personally say using female condoms feels a bit more like sex without a condom. The male lovers I have used them with say they feel especially out of this world to a penis. Many men say it’s close to the sensation of bare-backing. Female condoms feel so natural because they warm up to the temperature of the wearers body. As an added bonus, when used for man/woman sex, the clitoris can be stimulated by the condoms outer ring and the tip of the penis stimulated by the inner ring.

Anal August: Dental Dam Alternatives for Safer Analingus & Cunnilingus
It’s Anal August! To celebrate I’ve put together a video about safer analingus (and bonus safer cunnilingus too!).
Most of us know we can use dental dams for oral sex but did you know you can also use a condom or a latex glove (or…

Sex Toy Review: Body & Soul Remote 1

Why I Don’t Try To Prevent HIV (and don’t think you should either)
This was written by Wintersong and previously appeared on BarkingShaman.com. It specifically applies to safety issues around play that involves blood product, such as play-piercing and cutting play. Although this writing specifically applies…

Why You Should Invest in Luxury Sex Toys
When I first started buying sex toys, I would usually go the cheap route and get whatever looked the most tempting for under $30. I was in college, so you couldn't blame me, but of course, these toys didn't last long. They'd break in half…

The Vanilla vs. Kink Crossover
When it comes to vanillas and kinksters there’s a real “us” and “them” attitude. It’s like the Sharks and the Jets (Yes, I’m showing my age . . . and my love for musicals. Quiet, or I’ll dance fight your ass.). If you’re one you can’t be the other. You should never let it be known you occasionally associate with the other side, right? Look how badly that turned out for Tony and Maria.
It’s also assumed if you’re on one side you think the other is less than worthy. Breaking it down to basic stereotypes, vanillas think kinksters are scary and weird. Kinksters think vanillas are unadventurous and boring.

The Low-Down on Ben Wa Balls + Eclipse Kegel Exerciser Review
Ben Wa balls, also known as Kegel exercisers, are all the rage. We’ve known for over 1,500 years using them leads to improved vaginal health, better sex and stronger orgasms. You’d think that would be enough to sell anyone. But it…
