Someone left a message on our voicemail today telling us to check out their product the Lugez .
This is an ice sculpture kit that makes a dick you can suck booze out of. I wish people would at least take a second to look at our website before pitching us a product that we would so never sell…but maybe it is just my sore throat that is making me cranky.

Hi Kids,
I just added a couple new butt toys to our collection!
This Nexus Glide here is a prostate’s best friend (or so I hear… I don’t have one so I can’t say for sure). We think the rolling steel ball that massages the perineum is pretty nifty!
These plugs are call Paci Plugs and once you pop them in your butt they stay there! They are made of silicone and a great bargain too! 
And if you aren’t a butt toy-lover we also have a new vibe that I personally can recommended. We’re calling it Whirly and it is a great little clit stimulator that turns on with the push of a button.
Have a great weekend!
xox,

Did you happen to see the View yesterday (I can’t avoid it - it is always on at the Gym)? They started having a conversation about is it better for a married man to watch porn and Jack off or for him to screw another person. I think the answer is a no-brainer, but the ladies sure got their panties in a twist about the idea that I happily married man would watch porn and jack off (which they could barely figure out how to talk about politely)! Sheesh. Then Whoopie brought up vibrators (which didn’t really fit the topic to begin with) and most of the other women seemed horrified. Sherrie (I think it was Sherrie, it is hard to tell who is talking because I have to read the close-captioning which is always a little behind) went on and on about how she likes the touching and kissing of a man and would not use a vibe because it doesn’t do that. Well, sure a vibe doesn’t kiss you, but that is not the point! I so wish I could shake those ladies and say A VIBRATOR IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR A PARTNER SILLY! IT IS A FANTASTIC WAY TO ENJOY YOURSELF ON YOUR TERMS OR SHARE SOME EXTRA FUN WITH YOUR PARTNER! These ladies reach so many freaking people everyday, it saddens me that they perpetuate this masturbation is freaky/vibes are for weirdos idea. But goddess love Whoopie, I have heard her (well, read her) on more than one occasion praise the glories of a rabbit vibe on the show. She is my hero.

Hi Folks
I just started contributing my two cents to a weekly sex-related question on AlphaWomen.com. It is a cool website that bills itself as the coffee shop of the internet. There is a LOT of stuff going on there so you should check it out!

I found myself using the word Cisgender to describe myself today and realized that it may not be a part of everyone’s vocabulary. The Urban Dictionary defines it as such:
|
adj form of cisgender
The opposite of transgendered, someone who is cisgendered has a gender identity that agrees with their societally recognized sex. Many transgender people prefer “cisgender” to “biological”, “genetic”, or “real” male or female because of the implications of those words. Using the term “biological female” or “genetic female” to describe cisgendered individuals excludes transgendered men, who also fit that description. To call a cisgendered woman a “real woman” is exclusive of transwomen, who are considered within their communities to be “real” women, also. Wikipedia has info on the term too.
So, if you didn’t know before, now you do!

devine toy box
At Early to Bed we have some great things to store your toys in. The Devine Toy box is gorgeous and awesome and our Sugar Saks are perfect for keeping your toys lint-free. But if you are like me and have A LOT of toys, sometimes you need to get creative.
When I first started collecting sex toys it was easy to keep them in the drawer of my bedside table. Then a cute little suitcase worked when I outgrew that drawer. By the time I opened the shop, I had gotten a multi-drawer file-type cabinet for a bedside table. Finally I could sort things (dildo drawer, Lube Drawer, two vibe drawers). That was great for a while, but then I had to store less-used things under the bed or somewhere else as I was growing out of the files drawers. Eventually, I was out of places to stash my stash so when I moved to my current apartment, I made sex toy storage a priority. I was done with file cabinets and couldn’t fit my dream toolbox
in my bedroom so I headed to Ikea and found the perfect thing! Media shelves! I could now stay my toys upright. see exactly what I had (or at least what was clean and put away) and it is close to my bed without taking up any floor space!
The one on the left has the shelves and backing that the unit came with. For all my bullet and corded toys, I left out the backing and shelves on the other one and just nailed nails into the wall to hang the toys from so they don’t get all tangled. Clever, huh?
When my GF moved in we put pretty paper on the inside of the glass to be a little
more discreet (discretion not being my forte). Now even my mother-in-law can be in our room without being too weirded out!
So what clever thing have you come up with to store your toys and keep ‘em neat?

“Explosive Male Ejaculation!” proclaims the box containing my latest toy from Early to Bed. Okay, where do I sign up?
Skippy is a multi-speed anal vibrator that’s designed to stimulate a guy’s prostate during playtime and lead to the aforementioned “explosive male ejaculation.”
Made of soft blue silicone, the business end of the vibe is 4 inches long and about 1.5” in diameter, with a body that’s ridged in four sections, sort of like big, soft beads. It has a tapered end with a tip that curves up, similar to a g-spot vibrator. The other end has the obligatory on/off/speed-adjustment knob.
The idea is that during playtime you get this vibe all lubed up—we’re big fans of Slippery Stuff from EtB—and then insert it with the curve pointing towards the front of the man’s body, so that it lands squarely on the prostate. That’s when the fun begins.
If you’re experienced in anal play, you’ll know that it can be incredible when done right. Since men are wired differently from women, most guys will require other stimulation in addition to using the vibe, and the combination of sensations can be mind-blowing. If you communicate well with your partner and let her/him know when the vibe is in just the right spot, good things will happen.
When my wife and I tried out Skippy we managed to get the vibe in a place that resulted in a total lights-out orgasm for me. Yes, the product delivered on its promise!
It’s worth pointing out that the climax where prostate stimulation is involved is somewhat difficult to describe. The best description I can muster is that it seems to come from “deeper inside” than the orgasms a guy usually has. (This is the case for me, anyway.) Between the buzzing in the back and whatever kind of fun happens up front, you can find yourself losing control in the best way possible.
I found the unit to work well for both partner and solo play. When using it solo, though, it’s important to find a position that’s both comfortable and keeps the toy in place, especially has you’re heading down the “home stretch.”
Skippy’s vibration strength ranges from very gentle to fairly rumbly. I found that a setting somewhere just above the midway point worked best for me.
Since Skippy is made of silicone, cleanup was very easy. It’s supposedly safe to use in the tub or shower, but I haven’t attempted that yet. It takes 2 AA batteries, and the toy didn’t lose power during the times I’ve used it, which are big points in its favor.
This toy is a lot of fun, but I wouldn’t suggest it for the novice. A “Buddy” butt plug or one of the smaller, purse-sized EtB vibrators would be an excellent introduction to the world of anal play. The key is to let yourself go and enjoy the sensations: this is a whole new area to explore.
If you’re ready to take your anal play to the next level, then the Skippy may be just the thing for you. The box exclaims “This is no ordinary prostate exam!” and I have to admit I don’t recall having this much fun in the doctors!

Oh.My.God. There is apparently a sculpture park in Korea dedicated to sex. It is filled with huge sculptures of people doing very naughty things (among other items). I SO want to go there!!
You can read more about here and see more pictures here. We heard about it from our favorite blog Scanner.
Happy Hump Day!

I saw a story this weekend about the Icegasm. A make-your-own vibrating popsicle kit. Now I know a lot of people enjoy ice play and maybe this will be a big fat hit, but my first thought was OUCH! And my second thought was that any delicate body part would be numb after holding this vibrating piece of ice to it for more than a few seconds. Kinda of the opposite of the sensation that most people are looking for with a vibe.
But I’m only one gal… so whatta YOU think? Fantastically fun or some crazy invention by people who really don’t get it?
XOXO,
Searah
