5 Sex Toy Shopping Mistakes

Sex toy shopping can be weird. I’ll be the first to admit that. Our society’s attitudes toward sex and masturbation are weird, and it’s usually not often that we buy things that are going to interact with our bodies so intimately. But because they interact with our bodies so intimately, there are a lot of considerations that need to be made when purchasing your sex toys…

We-Vibe Sync Review

In general, wearable couples vibrators are not something that usually excites me. I appreciate the wearable aspect as an accessibility feature, but even then, the motors in those toys are usually pretty weak and buzzy, and they can be really finicky about actually fitting different people’s bodies and staying in the right place. So when We-Vibe sent me their newest couples toy, the Sync, I was as skeptical as I’ve ever been…

Satisfyer Pro 2 Review

It’s pretty much impossible to talk about the Satisfyer Pro 2 without comparing it to the Womanizer. And much like the Womanizer, this is a toy that leaves me with a lot of questions. Why does it have such a stupid name? …

Tantus Bound Review

When I pulled the Tantus Bound out of the box for the first time, I had the sinking feeling that I’d made a terrible mistake. I don’t think you can fully appreciate exactly how intense this toy’s texture is until you’re holding it in your hand. This is not a dildo for the faint of heart or orifice…

Pain During Sex?

When I talk about avoiding pain during penetrative sex, I tend to give a lot of the same advice. Go slowly. Use lube. Make sure you’re completely comfortable and aroused. Try being on top so that you can control the speed and depth of penetration…
