Shops: The Intimacy Book

The Intimacy Book is a online shop with a variety of sex toys varying from candles and condoms to black light make up and instructional books and DVDs.

While you won't find anything kinkier than a rubber mini skirt or a bell that you can ring specifically for a blow job on this site, you can find novelty gifts for a bachelor/ette party or a cute outfit to wear to a play party. They are quite similar to sex shops in my local area or, more available across the states, a shop like Spencers.

I do love that they seem to carry some natural products as well as the commercial ones. It's always good to seem some natural, organic or eco-friendly product choices.

As far as products they carry that I personally like, my top picks would be:

• The Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage by Midori
• The Lizette Shoe Wraps
• KALAN Black Light Body Make-up powder in pink
• Sinclair Institute Kegel Exerciser
• The Risque and X-Rated Valentines Day candy

The Intimacy Book has great programs for its online shoppers such as the Affiliate program and coupons for bloggers who write about their shop, like I am doing now.
They also participate in give-a-ways, contests and raffles. Currently, you could win a $25 gift card for The Intimacy Book HERE.

Tentacle Dildos Compared

True Pleasures, like me, has a tentacle fetish.
She has reviewed quite a few of the tent toys I've had my eye on and her reviews are very well written.

Here she has combined those reviews and compared 5 of them.

The winner?
The Tentacle from Bad-Dragon!
She liked it so much she bought 1 in each size!

I found the comparison really helpful. I still want one of all the toys she reviewed but I'm still pretty determined to get the Bad Dragon Tentacle like before.

BDSM Abuse Awareness

Many of you may have noticed that I have been passing around a link to an article on forums, chat rooms and more lately.
The article, I never called it rape: the truth about abuse in BDSM by Kitty Stryker, is featured on The Fetishistas online BDSM magazine. It's an open, up front telling of Kitty's experience of abuse in the fetish community and how so many times the community at large turns a blind eye to it even as they claim that BDSM is strongly against abuse and rape and is pro Safe, Sane and Consensual play only.

I have heard many Many MANY accounts of abuse in the scene. Everything from verbal abuse of submissives by a Dom who does not have any claim over them to ignoring a safeword to leaving a submissive after dropping them into sub-space to rape.
This issue has hit home in House Phryxus and we would like to do what we can to raise awareness.

So I'm posting this article everywhere I can think of.
Warning, it may be a trigger to some people who have suffered abuse as some of the tellings boarder descriptive. If you cannot read it because it could trigger, at least pass it on to others and let them know that the BDSM Community can no longer turn a blind eye to abuse.
This is not only to protect potential victims but to also keep the community clean of unnecessary stigma.

Formal Fetish Tea Service

So I'm working on a new project inspired to me by the little Tina who has come to me online to be my playmate.

I love Victorian roleplaying in the fetish world. I find it stimulating both mentally and erotically.
One thing I find most enjoyable is a formal tea.

I was thinking, how could a submissive or slave serve their Dom/me more fully during a formal tea?
I've posted this question on a few forums and chat rooms.

Now I did get a response on the FetLife Modern Victorian group from the Marquis de Valmont (who Sir and I greatly admire) and his response was:

"English High Tea....is English High Tea....no special protocols need be.

Proper service and protocols as such and FOR such service need not be altered in any way.

One must simply BE a good and well trained servant, have knowledge OF this daily ritual...and perform it."

-blushes- 

I suppose that it might be a bit precocious of me to try and tweak decades, nay a century of protocol but...I thought it would be fun and anyone who knows me knows how precocious I can be ^_^

Think Geek Panties

Omigosh!!!!
Think Geek has panties ^_^

And I want this specific pair soooo bad:

I feel that people who see me in my panties should know there is a chance I will be blogging about this experience...right?

Then there's these:

These are sooo AWESOME!

New Dolly

I'm in Littles mode lately. I think its mostly due to emotional stress lately.
But to add to my Littles happiness I have a new toy, a dolly!!!

This is Erro, a Series 2 Little Apple Doll.
Her story is a sad story. A witch stole her heart, leaving a hole where it should be. Every night she wandered, looking for something but not remembering what it was. She wandered the woods and found the witch who gives her a little paper house, inside of which is a spell. The witch tells Erro that she has the little girls heart and has hidden it, but that she will always go to sleep and when she wakes up she will not remember what it is she is looking for.
The Little Red Apple finds Erro and has her place him where her heart should be instead. He then takes her to the Inbetween Place. There she will not wander and is out of the clutch of the witch...but she still does not have her heart.

I love this doll.
Its so beautiful with its pale, mouth-less face.
Its also beautiful in that...I know what it feels like to look for something even when you're not sure what it is you're looking for in the first place...you'll just know when you find it.

Thank you Mistress Fenreya for such a lovely friend!

Fox Anthro Dildo

I gots a new toy!

This is Boxie the Fox from Zeta Paws. I bought him from Mistress Fenreya last night after trying it out on Sunday.
I love this dildo! The length (5.5 inches from tip to base) is perfect as I am somewhat small. The girth (3/4 across the tip) is awesome and then there's that 2 inch knot!
This is my first knotted toy and I had no idea how awesome it would feel (or I would have had one a long long time ago lol).

I definitely recommend this sort of dildo to any girl who loves a thick insertion and tight fit. The knot presses down on your opening once inside and even against the g-spot when riding. This creates a nice, heavy feeling that is more luxurious than any regular human-shaped dildo I've ever used.

This one even as a suction cup on the bottom to use in the shower or on a desk or floor or whatever ^_^ Its awesome!
I used it int he shower, sadly my tub is a little narrow and the positioning on the floor of the shower wasn't great but what little time I used it was pleasant.
