All About We-Vibe

The We-Vibe is our most popular vibrator - for good reason!

It's waterproof, body-safe, rechargeable, and flexible with a revolutionary design. It's so fresh and exciting that it looks a little different, compared to the other bullet, rabbit and representational designs on the market.

We've put together a video to help you see what makes We-Vibe worth moaning about.

New Video! Choosing a Vibrator

Okay, I haven't been blogging, but I've been working on other projects!

Shibaricon was a lot of fun. I was there vending with one of my manufacturers (Vera from For Your Nymphomation). It was her first trip to Chicago, and she got to know every Apple store in a 50-mile radius. It's a long story.

The spare room in my house has become a retail store. Are you interested in a personalized shopping experience with your partner? Set up an appointment with me, and I'll answer your questions about various products. You won't get that kind of service elsewhere!

I have also been putting together educational videos about some of our most popular items at Primrose Path. A website can only tell you so much - sometimes you need a demonstration. I'm always happy to grab my Wondrous Vulva puppet for a little show-and-tell.


Today, I put up a video about choosing a vibrator. There are literally thousands of different vibrators out there, and it is very intimidating for a first-time shopper to pick through them to figure out which one is going to do the best job. This video won't answer every question, but it's a start. Plus, it features two of our favorite vibrators from LELO - Gigi and Lily. They're pretty and functional and worth every penny!



Let me know what you think! What other questions do you have about these products that weren't answered by the video?

Fresh Gift Idea for the Bride!

I was talking to Elizabeth Gronert of Private Quarters recently, and she showed me the freshest bridal shower gift idea I've seen in years - a wedding-dress-inspired spa sarong for the bride to wear as she does her wedding day prep.

The best thing about this gift is that it's not a one-day-only thing.  The bride can wear it for years, and every time she does, she'll get to relive the excitement of that special day!

Contact Elizabeth Gronert at comfort4life@comcast.net or (847)502-8394 or visit her website at www.privatequarters.net/elizabeth.  Look for the Our Products tab - the sarong is on p. 36.

Sex: How To Do Everything - Book Review

First of all, I have to confess that I adore Em & Lo, the co-authors of this book. I was a huge fan of their last book (The Big Bang), and I've been eager to get my hands on this new one.

If this book doesn't get your motor running, then you need to check your pulse!

Sex: How To Do Everything is exactly what the title implies - a handbook that tells the story in words and images of how to do anything and everything sexual. In an improvement on The Big Bang, the pictures are more relevant to the text and highly illustrative of the positions and techniques being discussed. While the pictures are beautifully graphic, they aren't explicit i.e. there are no photos of penetration. This is an instructional book, not porn!

The one thing that's missing from this book is: Gays and Lesbians! What the heck, Em & Lo? While I don't have my copy of The Big Bang handy (it's been loaned out - AGAIN), I believe that there were at least a couple of gay- or lesbian-friendly images. There are none in this book. It's exclusively hetero-focused.  For good or bad, Em & Lo have a target audience, and they have narrowed in on it.

Why would you need or want a sex book? Sex is simple and you know it all, right?

This book is a great icebreaker!

At the beginning of a relationship, it can be challenging to get your new partner to open up and talk about what s/he likes or dislikes. You're still self-conscious and unable to honest express yourself. Props and pictures can help to unlock secret fantasies or difficult-to-convey thoughts and ideas. A glass of wine helps, too.

Alternatively, if you and your longtime partner are searching for fresh inspiration, Sex: How To Do Everything is chock full of ideas. It won't take many photos to get you both thinking, "Maybe we could try that ... or that ... or that!" You'll soon be tossing the book (carefully) to the floor to try something new!

Em & Lo have a unique voice together. They're smart, witty and no-nonsense. They expect you to have hang-ups and to occasionally make a gross-out face, but they won't indulge you in it. Here is an excerpt from the Introduction to the book:

If it ruins sex for you to be told which sex toys might move the earth for you and which will just irritate your sensitive bits, then go ahead and leave this book on the shelf. We're sure there's something interesting in the gardening aisle for you. But as for the real mystery of sex - how an orgasm can make you forget your own name, how the best sex can feel like two souls merging, how sex with a complete stranger can sometimes free you to be yourself, how bumping uglies can feel like anything but - well, we promise this book won't spoil any of that.

If I could write a sex book, this is what I would write!  It should be tucked underneath every (heterosexual) bed in every English-speaking nation!
