The Great Sex Toy Purge

Every so often one must go through a purge. Because I have so many sex toys I have to get rid of them from time to time. Above is a crappy cellphone pic of all the toys I am sending off to be recycled. I realize that what I am getting rid of is bigger than most people’s entire collection. But the truth is that I think I bought only one or two of those toys. I am a choosy buyer and will normally only get toys that I know I will really like.

Some of these toys have very fond memories and some of them have only been used once or twice. One has never been used (damn duplicates). A couple are the only vibes my wife brought into our relationship. They have never been used since we moved in together. After all, why would she want to use those when she has access to my entire collection? Most of the toys were given to me for review, but keep in mind that just because I don’t like something doesn’t mean you won’t. And truth be told, I did really like some of these, but I’ve replaced them with better toys. Or maybe my vagina has just gotten pickier.

I thought I had a lot more to get rid of, but I purged most of the worst toys (jelly awfulness) in the last go around.

I am a little reluctant to get rid of the green silicone g-spotter dildo, but it has a taint tapper and as aag said recently, I am delicately tainted.

G-spot/Squirting Class Tomorrow

Just a quick reminder that I will be doing my last Chicago workshop (while I’m still living here) tomorrow night at Early to Bed. Come out and learn about the magical g-spot and female ejaculation. Last I checked there were still spots open.

Upcoming Early to Bed Events

Hey Chicagoans (sorry to those of you who aren’t from Chicago)! Early to Bed is having a couple of exciting events coming up next week. You should come out to both if you can make it.

On Tuesday July 13th at 7:30PM I will be giving my last Chicago workshop before I move. The topic is the g-spot and female ejaculation. It promises to be a lot of fun. Please pre-register either online, by phone, or in person. $15/$10 low income. There are lots of spots still open.

On Friday July 16th there will be a benefit for the Chicago Abortion Fund (CAF) 7-pPM. There will be snacks and drinks and 15% of all purchases will be donated to CAF

My New #2: Alumina Revolve

The Alumina Revolve is a toy I actually bought myself. It was on mega sale at my store because we just could not sell it. On top of that, none of the sex toy companies I’m affiliated with sell it either. And now after owning this toy I realize how unfortunate that is. This toy has moved itself up to the number two spot in my dildo collection, only being beat out by my Lelo Ella. Although, it actually may just beat out the Ella when it comes to partner sex because it is easier for a second party to hold onto than the Ella is.

The nitty gritty about this toy: It’s beautiful! It’s made out of anodized aluminum which is a very body and earth safe material. It is non-porous and canĀ  be fully sterilized. If you want to sterilize it you can wipe it down with a 10% bleach solution, boil it for a few minutes, or throw it in the dishwasher without soap. Or you could just wash it with soap and water if you’re keeping it all to yourself.

The aluminum is fully recyclable if at any point you tire of this toy. I can’t imagine why or how that would happen and it’s not like it’s going to wear out. This thing should last you a lifetime.

Aluminum has definite heft to it which makes it great as a kegel exerciser or a g-spot toy, but it’s also lighter than steel toys which makes it a bit easier on the hands and wrists. Aluminum is also compatible with both water and silicone based lubes so try it with a few to find your favorite.

All Alumina toys have two ends that are fully functional and you can mix and match them for lots of fun. The two ends unscrew from each other and can be screwed together with other Alumina toys.

I’ll admit that I actually have only used one side of this toy so far but that’s because I’m totes addicted to it. I’ve only played with the end with the three bloops on it because it feels like waves of pleasure surging through me with each in and out motion. However, after reading Britni’s review of the toy I now realize that I may have been missing out by not playing with the other end. I promise to get right on that.

What I also love about this toy is that the end you’re not fucking yourself with acts as a handle. More sex toys should come with handles as it can make fucking yourself or someone else much easier. Although that also means that this toy is obviously not harness or butt compatible.

Go buy yourself an Alumina Revolve so it doesn’t disappear like one of my other favorite dildos: Orbit.

Mystic Wand Attachment

The Mystic Wand attachment looks pretty funny. I mean look at it. It’s kind of ridiculous. But it serves to make a good thing better and in the end that’s what really matters, not it’s looks.

This attachment, while designed for the Mystic Wand, also fits the Acuvibe Mini. Which is why I got it in the first place because I had the Acuvibe Mini and not the Mystic Wand. Although to be completely thorough I then went out and purchased a Mystic Wand as well. I’m glad I did because the attachment feels completely different on the two toys.

But lets start with the nitty gritty first. The attachment is meant to fit snugly over the head of the Mystic Wand and you can really use any side of it. But you’re obviously meant to focus on the side with the protrusion and tiny teeth since that is what differs most from the Mystic Wand itself. The insertable part is not very long (a little under 3″) as it is really meant to hone in on your g-spot which is located only a couple of inches inside the vagina. And that toothy part is supposed to hug and vibrate your clit. The whole thing is made out of silicone which means it is body healthy and can easily be sterilized by boiling or wiping it down with a 10% bleach solution. Only use water based lube with this attachment.

So I first tried the attachment with the Acuvibe Mini (you can read my review of it here and here) and kind of loved/hated it. The internal vibrations were intense no doubt. And if you read my recent review of the Rock-Chick you can understand exactly why I sought this toy out. Intense sure, but all wrong. For some reason it felt like the vibrations were traveling into my butt instead of pinpointing my g-spot. And I can promise you that I know the difference between my butt and my vag so it’s not like I put it in the wrong hole.

The vibrations were also immensely intense on my clit. Wow! The toothy part – that feels nothing like teeth by the way- latched onto my clit. The vibrations may have actually been a bit too intense when combined with the amount of pressure that the attachment put on my clit. I didn’t think I’d ever say that, but there it is.

So with that experience under my belt I decided I needed to try the attachment on the toy that it was meant for, the Mystic Wand. And what a different experience it was! It’s really interesting how the change in head shape between the two toys can make the toy fit on my body completely differently. Which also means that this is really going to vary for all people because everyone’s body is lined up just a bit different. What may work for me won’t necessarily work for you or for Susie J down the street.

The attachment on the Acuvibe Mini felt like vibrations in my ass, but on the Mystic Wand the vibrations definitely did what they were meant to do and pinpointed my g-spot. And because the Mystic Wand has a nice deep rumble to it, the g-spot stimulation felt pretty damn amazing. Only problem was that now the clit attachment did not reach my clit. It was too far down. It seemed so strange that this same attachment which had latched onto my clit previously on a different vibrator was now nowhere near close enough to it for me to be able to have an orgasm. You would really need to have a clit that is pretty close to your vaginal opening in order for this to fit right, which is a bit of a bummer.

However, when I pulled the attachment out and focused the insertable g-spot part onto my clit it was ridiculously intense. I think I may have giggled. Ok, I did giggle. It felt amazing and almost too intense. Did I really say that again? This Hitachi girl was definitely shocked by this attachment and it’s ability to make vibrations so intense that they may have been actually a bit too much for me.

In the end, I probably won’t use this toy for it’s insertable properties since they just didn’t end up working out too well for me. But I will come back to it again and again for the pinpoint vibration on my clit created by the insertable g-spot section. Plus, in my opinion, it just makes the Mystic Wand so much better. I don’t like the ridges that are on the head of the toy and this attachment helps to bypass them for when I want a powerful toy without a cord.

Thanks so much to Babeland for sending this toy out to me for review.
