Buy sex toys and help out a family in need.

I know, “Sex toys” and “family in need” aren’t usually in the same sentence, lol. But….it’s the only way I can think of to raise money for a friend of mine. She’s a single mom working 2 jobs. She has 1 kid in college and the other kid just graduated high school. Tonight a big storm blew the entire roof off of her (rented) house while they were out. Many of their belongings are destroyed; all the floors of their house are flooded. She’s always scrimping by and burning the candle at both ends to make things line up for her kids. She’s such a sweet person, always doing for other people. She gives and gives and never asks for help. To add insult to injury she’s still recovering from the sudden death of her father just two months ago. And of course…she didn’t have renters insurance. Since she was renting from a private owner and not a complex, it wasn’t a requirement and I guess was seen as another bill they couldn’t afford.

I really want to help her, but don’t know how. SO. the only way I have to raise money is by selling sex toys. Now, I’m not asking you to go buy sex toys that you wouldn’t normally be buying already. All I’m asking is that you buy them by coming here first and clicking in the affiliate links that I have in the sidebar for each company. While I would prefer that it’s EF you choose (simply because I make the most from them) I know some people won’t buy from there so buying from other companies I affiliate with will also help.

Crystal Causes – Sex Positive Fundraising

One of the two vendors that I had the chance to chat with at Momentum was Shellie of Crystal Delights. It’s really something special when you get to talk directly to the head honcho of a small sex toy manufacturing company; you can find out how things are made, see how that person really cares about their products and their customers, and if you have any input on their products you know that your words are not falling on deaf ears. Besides being a really great person, Shellie has created what are probably the most beautiful butt plugs around. THEY ARE SPARKLY. And I happen to know from friends that they’re also a great mix of super comfy and arousing. One fellow #mcon attendee was wearings hers practically all day and night. Luckily for me, since I’m not a butt plug kinda gal, there’s also glass or ceramic dildos with TEH SPARKLIES in them.

But the point of this post isn’t to plug her plugs (hehhhh), I’m pointing you towards the charity fundraiser that CD has started up. It’s pretty simple. You donate what you can afford, even just $5, to one of seven wonderful sex-positive organizations and you will get entered into a drawing for a huge gift basket of premium toys.

Each Basket Includes:

An Epiphany Wand from Crystal Delights
A Luxury Sex Toy from LELO
A tub of Boy Butter H2o Lube
A Just in Case Condom Compact
A Cock ring from My Hardware.com
A ‘Big Ball’ from RubyGlass21
A Toy bag and afterglow cleansing wipes from Devine Toys
A toy from Toy (Thinking of You) toys range of high quality, Unique sex toys
A Ceramic Sex Toy from Duncan Charles
A vibrator from Papaya Toys
An autographed NYC bloggers calendar courtesy of Tied Up Events
A ruler & 3 month membership to Kink Academy
Issue #2 of Whore Magazine with a certificate for your choice of tank top of t-shirt
A stunning glass dilletto from Steele Malone
A Mini Whip from Axovus
A T-shirt & Wine labels from Cerebral Itch
VOD cards provided by VirtuallyAbout

There’s a lot in these baskets that I personally would love to own – but there’s probably a couple things that I might already have, which would mean if I would happen to win one of these baskets (on the off chance) I’ll have a nice small basket of my own to pay forward to one of you.

The organizations that benefit from the donations raised are a vital part of the sex-positive community and they all do wonderful work educating and helping out.

Please visit the Crystal Causes page to learn more and to enter.

Review: Ocean Breeze Glass Dildo

First, an aside. I’ve been feeling lately that I’m not being a very “good” reviewer in that I’m not producing happy, sparkly reviews. Expensive, cheap, and everything in between I’m honest to a fault, perhaps. But I don’t review just to receive toys, I review so that others may know something about a sex toy before purchasing. So I can’t gloss over things, I won’t bullshit and I won’t be Glinda the Good Witch.

So you know what’s coming, right?

Yeah.

A bad review.

But this time I don’t feel it’s my fault (and I use the term “fault” loosely). You see, SSA Glass is the manufacturer of this dildo and other glass sex toys that EdenFantasys carries. And SSA’s first run of this dildo looked like this:

What I received is….the work of a drunken apprentice. And lest we chalk it up to a one-off, I’ve read at least 2 other reviews which state the exact same thing. The design has changed drastically, the quality changed drastically and it’s downright UGLY. In the original run of the Ocean Breeze dildo, those pretty little raised dots accented in red look like little jewels. The base is symmetrical and the dildo has a nice curve with some somewhat-realistic veins and head-shaping.

This is what mine looks like:

Razor burn.

Rash.

Disease.

In short: UGLY. And one of the primary reasons that people purchase glass dildos is because they are PRETTY. I truly can’t even stand to look at this thing so it doesn’t ever get used – even if the shaft had been up to par. Which it wasn’t. They changed the curve so that if you hold it like it should be held, the curve points away from your g-spot. Mine isn’t thick enough to make up for the curve issue with girth. The texture is irrelevant. Oh and those raised dots of red? Not all are raised dots. Some are just flat splatters of red glass, um, paint? I can’t tell what the red spots actually are. Colored dots of glass? There’s no rhyme or reason or pattern to them, the symmetry is gone. It just looks like a freak accident.

The packaging is nil, but as I understand it, that’s the case with all SSA Glass dildos. It’s up to the discretion of EF to include any sort of pouch – other reviewers stated getting one, I did not. Mine was simply wrapped up in packing paper. That’s truly it. Nothing else to tell me anything about the company or the dildo. Luckily all care information is on the site, or you can refer to the care & cleaning of glass dildos section of my site. All of the standard tropes of glass toys apply here: Good for temperature play, you can use any kind of lube that you like, it’s body-safe, non-porous, etc etc yadda yadda.

But it’s so ugly, such poor quality, that I’d be dead embarrassed if anybody saw it in my collection.

I’ve talked with other glass dildo owners and others who’ve owned other SSA Glass dildos have had no problems as far as workmanship and it looking like the photo on the site. But you get what you pay for – SSA dildos are less expensive, which is why there’s no packaging. No frills of any sort, not even necessary frills like a padded pouch.

For a better g-spot glass sex toy in the same price range I’d recommend trying out the Bent Graduate instead. If you want the “pretty” aspect, go for the Color Tip Wand. Despite not hearing anything else bad about other SSA Glass dildos, I’m still reluctant to recommend trusting them as a brand. The change to the Ocean Breeze was recent, sometime in the last 4 months, and if other people got a dildo with the affliction of uglyitis as me then there’s something going on with the company on a production level.

Wanton Wednesday: Office Finale Pt 2

This is the last of my pics from my final week of work. As you can see by the lack of posting here, moving is….overwhelming. We thought the packing was bad but the unpacking! Ugh! Utterly surrounded by boxes and finding little things in the house that I don’t like and then opening a box and trying to put stuff away only to find I can’t because the spot is blocked by more boxes *Sigh* It’s a wee bit frustrating. As is not being able to find a grocery store like we had back in the old city – the grocery store that had everything. It was huge, there was tons of variety and I have to say the stores here are lacking. How I can have gone to 5 different grocery stores and still not found something as frighteningly simple as a bag of mini Hershey’s bars for hubs is totally beyond me. Let’s not even get into the organic/natural snacks and foods I’d come to love and rely upon.

Anyways. Hopefully soon I’ll post something else slightly interesting here. e[lust] submissions will open up Thursday so that will give me a little distraction. I’m actually finding myself wanting to start working on projects for people now. You’d think I would want to bask in my non-working status finally but I’m getting antsy. I might even consider bringing my blog designing back on board. Who knows!

Apologies for the sloppy blurred-out backgrounds on these….even being gone from there I still feel the need to take care of my anonymity.

See who else is playing!

WantonWednesday: Office Finale Pt 1

I actually meant to post this earlier, but the efforts of packing combined with an order of steamed chinese dumplings made me pass the hell out for two hours. Whoops!

So as I mentioned in my post from Friday, my last day on the job, I felt compelled last week to snap some final office-flashing type pics for old times sake. If you didn’t read that post, you won’t understand why, so maybe it would be a good idea if you give a shit, lol. I don’t know when I’ll ever work in a job like this, where the opportunity for my brand of naughtiness is available, or if I’ll ever work in an environment anything like this, period.
