Let me begin by saying that I love my new Sports Cuffs. If you’ve been eyeing them, you should just go ahead and buy a pair. They’re freaking awesome.
The first thing that set these apart for me is comfort. They’re made out of neoprene, which is really soft, incredibly durable and easy to clean because it has a closed cell structure that keeps out dirt and grime. The closure is made out of Velcro, so they’re adjustable and perfect for people with little tiny wrists like me. They fit snuggly on my ankles or wrists, without any pinching or chafing and I love it!
While comfort is important to me, it’s also crucial that there’s no escaping any cuffs we use. Once secured, there was no way I was going anywhere without a little help. Each cuff has a sturdy O ring, which made them the perfect accessory to my Under the Bed Restraints!
While I totally love these, there are a couple of things you should think about before purchasing. First up, these are not really sexy cuffs. This means nothing to me, but if you’re super into leather or looking to accessorize in the dungeon, you may not love these. They are definitely more function than form.
You should also think about the fact that they are really comfortable. I’m guessing some people love the bite of a leather cuff into the soft flesh of their wrist as they struggle in bondage. I’m not one of those people, but if you are you might not want to purchase these super comfy restraints.
Overall, I’m a huge fan of these cuffs and recommend them highly. They’re cheap, secure and built to last.
Now’s not the time for restraint, get your Sports Cuffs today!

I was first introduced to Paul Krassner’s writing through his column on AVN.com. I was immediately struck by how funny and honest he was and found myself looking forward to his next piece. After doing a little research, I discovered that he has a long history of awesomeness and began seeking out more of Krassner’s social and political commentary. He’s one of those people who has the balls to say what we’re all thinking and then take it one step further.
When I got my hands on a copy of In Praise of Indeceny, a collection of essays and interviews by Krassner, I was totally excited and dove right in. After devouring it in a couple of sittings, the only bad thing I have to say is that there wasn’t enough! For a guy who has been writing since long before I was born, I’d love to see a more comprehensive collection.
If you don’t know Krassner’s work, this is a great introduction. It contains 25 great pieces starting with and interview by Susie Bright and ending with a piece on women and porn that contains quotes from Tristan Taormino, Candida Royalle and Carol Queen. Packed in the middle are rants about pubic hair, the taste of cum and Snoop Dogg. It’s smart, funny and bound to make you think – what more could you ask for?
One word of warning for fans, I had previously read a number of the included pieces, so if you’re looking for new content, this is not the book for you. If you’re interested in owning a great collection of writing from the only person in the world ever to win awards from both Playboy and the Feminist Party Media Workshop, don’t hesitate to pick up a copy. I spent an afternoon on the beach laughing out loud and engaging my friends in debate regarding his ideas and definitely recommend it.

When you work in the adult industry, it’s easy to get a little bored with the boxes of toys that show up in the mail. I mean, I love sex toys, but how many vibrating bullets does one girl need? Because of this, I always get really excited when I get to try out a unique toy.
When I received Lovemoiselle’s Noemie I couldn’t wait to test it out. This gorgeous dildo is my first ceramic toy and another one that looks more like art than a fuck stick. While performance is key, it doesn’t hurt when you get to play with something that is aesthetically pleasing as well.
Since I didn’t know much about ceramic in regards to sex toys, I did a little research. While apparently not all ceramic is non-porous, I’m happy to report that Lovemoiselle’s toys are. They are also compatible with all lubricants and super easy to clean. You can wash it with soap and water or sterilize with a ten percent bleach solution.
Any of you who ever made an ashtray in art class are probably wondering about how tough a ceramic dildo can possibly be. While I’m not about to drop mine of off my roof, let me just say that this one feels totally solid. The company addresses fragility on their site:
“We use a special manufacturing process to make the Lovemoiselle range exceptionally durable, strong and safe to use. In fact, if you care for your Lovemoiselle toy properly, it will last for a lifetime making it the most very environmentally friendly range too.”
When it comes to getting down and dirty, I was quite pleased with my latest toy. The material reminds me a lot of glass – it’s super slick and is great for temperature play. In my opinion, it doesn’t hold temperature quite as well as glass, but it’s definitely worth cooling down on a hot summer day!
The Noemie’s curved body feels really great and is also handy when things get a bit slippery. It’s about eight inches long and has a reasonable diameter at 1.5 inches. Pretty standard in my opinion, but the material, smoothness and sexy curves make this one stand out. Also, you should know that it is hollow, so it’s not super heavy like you may imagine.
The final thing worth mentioning is the packaging for this toy. It comes in a great black box that can be used for storage and will definitely protect your Noemie if you choose to travel with it. If you’re looking to save space, you’ll also find a nice black pouch included that will keep it clean and prevent your dildo from rolling off of the nightstand.
Overall, I really like this fancy pants dildo. If you’re looking for a good looking and unique toy that won’t break the bank, you should definitely head over to edenfantasys.com and take a look at the Noemie.
Ps. Sorry for using the phrase “fuck stick.” Go ahead and review 30 toys and see how hard it is to come up with new ways to say the same thing.

I recently received one of the most interesting vibes I’ve seen in a while, the Treeze Wave. This is the first vibrating WOOD toy that I’ve seen and I was definitely intrigued.
Before I get down to details regarding this specific vibe, I first have to commend Don Wands on their new replaceable vibrator. Realizing that no vibe is going to last forever, they’ve created a vibe that can be replaced once the original has inevitably called it quits. Hopefully this isn’t something that will happen in the near future, but it’s good to know that my vibe won’t become an expensive paperweight any time soon
So back to this vibe, once I pulled this bad boy out of the packaging, which includes a sample of WET lube, batteries and a nice padded pouch, I was really surprised by how smooth this toy is. I have a really nice wooden dildo, but I guess I still have second thoughts about sticking wood in places where the sun don’t shine. Read the rest of this entry »

Reviewing sex toys is a great way to explore new frontiers and expand your sexual boundaries, something I love doing, so I went in an unusual direction for myself and picked the Stranger II by Fun Factory for this particular review. I’m not usually a great fan of the insertable type toys, but I reason that’s simply because I haven’t found just the right one to rock my world yet and unlike with dates (and certain vegetables), I’ll try anything once. Actually when it comes to sex toys, I insist on trying it way more than once, because I reason I didn’t like my favorite vibe the first time out of the box either.
Speaking of boxes, when this one came in the mail I was in for a bit of a shock. It was right about then that I started to suspect I’d bitten off more than I could chew. Because boxed up, the Stranger II was almost as long as my forearm! Out of the box and still nearly as long as my arm, the Stranger II is supposedly 6.75 inches long which is a little longer than your average guy is likely to be endowed. Luckily my Stranger also has a gently tapered head and a soft pliable silicone body, so I wasn’t running for cover just yet; even if my mind was screaming ‘are you kidding me, it’s 9 inches if it’s anything!’
The Stranger, like most vibrators is pretty simple to operate, just turn the dial at the base to increase or decrease the vibrations as well as turn the device off and on. The only complex part of the Stranger’s design is where to put the batteries. I actually had to get the instructional booklet out for that one. Turns out that in order to put batteries in the Stranger, you first have to squeeze either side of the base to get to the compartment, not unlike some safety caps on pill bottles. Now’s a good time to mention that I hate safety caps – if you have any kind of problems with your hands, they are absolutely impossible to get off.

It was love at first sight with the Slimline G. The curvature is tantalizing! I started my erotic exploration of the Slimline off with testing out the Nubbed CyberSkin Sleeve, which fit snuggly over the tip of the vibe. The handle of the stick was an awesome simulation for me. I held the bulb of the device to my clit with the shaft end, as if I were jerking off a cock. I was picturing what it was like for guys to grip hard and stroke fast. My imagination was going wild with the feelings I was receiving and the image of jacking myself off. The bulb end is long enough to get in long strokes and stimulate all areas of little Ms. Kitty. The sleeves fit so tightly over the end; there is no fear of them slipping around. It stays where you put it and totally does the job. But even though these babies are going to stick to the end no matter what, the packaging warns that the CyberSkin Sleeves are for External Use Only, so don’t even try it.
After removing the sleeves, the Slimline is designed specifically for G-Spot stimulation. Inserting this puppy was especially easy, and its angle does provide specific G-Spot massage. The length of this toy makes it comfortable to maneuver for self-stimulation. You judge how far up you want the bulb to reach. The vibration control is on the end. It’s a twist—to the right for more power!

Every now and again it’s great to take a break from the wham-bam sex toy reviews and check out something a bit more intimate and sensual. So I was pretty eager to try out the new Massage balm by Intimate Organics. Ready for an adventure, I picked the Energizing Fresh Oranges and Wild Ginger flavor and went to town – literally.
The first time I got a chance to try this Massage Balm, I was running late out the door for a day that would include meeting my boyfriend’s mother and I forgot to put lotion on in my haste getting dressed. With a four alarm ashy knees crisis on my hands, I reached for the nearest moisturizer, which just happened to be this massage balm. Straight out of its tube the massage balm looks more like a homemade ointment rather than a lotion or its fancy expensive counterpart, a balm. It starts out translucent and relatively solid but quickly melts, faster than any ointment or lotion I’ve seen before, when you rub it between your palms. It’s also heftier on the palm than your average massage oil, staying put rather than running between your fingers and onto the bed, floor or your partner.

I hate working out. Never liked it and I probably never will. But I do it because I know the benefits of having a strong, healthy body. I want my heart to keep me going as long as I need it! Same goes for my vagina, so I take my kegel exercises just as seriously as my cardio. Kegel exercises strengthen the pubococcygeus (P.C.) muscle of your pelvic floor, which can not only help with incontinence and all sorts of issues surrounding pregnancy and menopause, but can also help women have stronger, more intense orgasms. And the fact just is: amazing orgasms trump my lazy dislike of working out. It’s just true.
While I usually do my kegel exercises by just squeezing my muscles (the same ones that you use to stop your stream of urine mid-flow), when I got the opportunity to test out a toy specific for kegel exercises, I jumped on it. I figured, hey, if I’m going to have to work out, why not make it as fun as possible. So yes, I think of my Fun Factory Smart Balls as a hip-hop cardio dance class for my vag.

I’ve been a fan of Sliquid lubricants for a long time now, but I was thrilled when they put out a new line of organic lubes. I’m really conscious of what I put in my body and that carries over to the bedroom.
This is a water-based lube, which means you can use it with your favorite silicone toys and latex condoms, and the gel formula is a little thicker than the other products in the organics line. Interestingly enough, this is due to the inclusion of additional plant cellulose! Anyways, if runny lubes are the bane of your existence, you’re going to love this body safe gel.
There are a lot of good things to say about this product – which is obviously made with a woman’s health and pleasure in mind. It’s glycerin and paraben free. Plus, and you’re not going to believe this, I can pronounce every single ingredient on the short list!
Sliquid even considers the earth’s well-being when packaging this relatively new line of lubricants. The bottles are 100% recyclable and the labels are printed on partially recycled paper. If you’re working on your carbon footprint, you should know that Sliquid is too!
Of course, it’s just as important that this product perform well in the bedroom and I have to say it’s a good lube. I love the thicker formula, there’s really no taste and it lasts as long as my favorite water-based lubricants. One draw back to water-based lubes is that you typically have to reactivate them with a little water over the course of a long play session, but sadly that’s just life.
Overall, this is a thicker lube that’s body safe and perfect for women who are prone to UTI’s or yeast infections because it doesn’t include any nasty ingredients. Don’t forget to check out the rest of the Organics line, which include a warming lube, the silicone-based Silk and the original (and thinner) Sliquid Organics Natural.

I fell in love with super short erotica stories when I read Got A Minute? last year. There’s nothing like the rush you get from a few stolen moments of passion in a place that many would deem inappropriate. Well, Alison Tyler has done it again with another hot collection of ultrashort smut, Frenzy, and I’m loving it.
With 60 stories packed into a little over 200 pages, everyone is sure to find a little something that turns them on. I was pleased night after night as I picked up this book and made my way through it. Of course, not every story was my cup of tea, but there’s a ton of great stories that will please.
One I really enjoyed was Permission by P.S. Haven, an author I don’t believe I’ve read before. While it’s less than two pages long, I was transported into the mind of a man who’s been cuckolded by his wife time and time again as he watches another man with his wife. It’s not really JO material for me, but I loved the sneak peek into this man’s mind and was amazed by how much the author conveyed in so few words.
Another story that pleased me for the same reasons was Xan West’s This Boy. This time we’re privy to the thoughts of what I imagine is an older man as a college boy sits at his feet staring up at him. Let me tell you, he isn’t dreaming of cuddling. It’s raw and powerful writing that makes me long for a companion story told from the student’s point of view. Does he know what he’s in for, because I’d like to think he’s waiting to be ravished!
I have to say that I’m a huge fan of these short stories of sudden sex. Time and time again, the authors manage to convey the energy and tempo of a quickie while introducing me to scenarios I’ve never dreamed of!
Add this great book to your collection today!
