Monkeys, Goats & Bigfoot: My Favorite News Stories of 2012
December 31, 2012 § Leave a Comment
1. Ikea Monkey. He’s so cute in that coat! And just as awesome? James Deen doing his Ikea Monkey impression. (nsfw)
2. Jesus redone. A crazy ol’ Spansih lady restores a fresco. Makes it look like a monkey! (See a theme here?)
3. Goat Man of Utah. It took a while to figure out who he was… but they did it.
4. Bigfoot exposed. Sad that he had to die. But what a way to go.
What were your favorite news stories of the year?

Ducky’s Top 10 Sex Toys of 2012
December 23, 2012 § 1 Comment
Here they are… the 10 toys that found themselves in heavy rotation around here in 2012…
|
EVI is a simple vaginal toy that brings stronger, more badass orgasms and pelvic strength – all in one awesome little package. My all time favorite toy of the year. Buy it here. Use checkout code DUCKY20 and get 20% off.
|
|
Acute is a classic Tantus design and for good reason. The curve of this toy is perfect for reaching your G spot. Size queens be warned tho, it’s a little on the smaller size. Buy it here. Use checkout code DUCKY20 and get 20% off.

I don’t really need to explain why the Hitachi Magic Wand is on this list do I? Or why it’s the toy of choice when the pervs (a term of endearment, I assure you!) at kink.com (nsfw) want to take a woman over the edge? It’s just the best clitoral and body massager in the world. Buy it here.

For skin-on-skin play, Sliquid Silver is my favorite. But when it comes to playing with toys, silicone lubes like Sliquid Silver are not the best option. When I know toys are going to be a part of my fun, I use Sliquid H2O. Healthy, simple lube made by a company that cares about my health. Love that. Buy it here.
|
|
Mmm, mmm, mmm… a ball gag can be so fun. Read about my adventures in shopping for ball gags here. Buy it here. Use checkout code DUCKY and get 10% off.
|
|
There is nothing in the world like a super smooth, cool to the touch stainless steel Pure Plug. Easy, comfortable entry. Your muscles will hold on to the tight neck and the finely designed anchor fits perfectly between your cheeks. Perfect for the beginner butt player and for warming your body up for something a little bigger. Buy it here. Use checkout code DUCKY and get 10% off.

Not all rabbits are alike. And price does not always equate quality with this style of toy. But this super cute, smooth Lovehoney Happy Rabbit hits every mark for me! It features two powerful motors, one for the shaft and one for the rabbit. And personally I love the fact that the shaft does not spin like other rabbit toys do. And that it’s made of body safe silicone. I was a bit surprised by how much I like this toy! Buy it here.

I love how Tantus is taking some of their most popular toys and adding a handle to them. This takes what was a very cool toy and makes it even easier to play with alone or with a partner! It is called the Echo because the ridge of the head repeats down the shaft. Those ridges are essential speed bumps for you G spot. So cool. Buy it here. Use checkout code DUCKY20 and get 20% off.

Made by Crystal Delights, my favorite glass toy maker in the whole world, I gave the Small Colbalt Plug a rave review earlier this year. And I stand by it. Buy it here.
|

One of the things I love about kink is how it inspires people to be creative. Color Me Kinky is one such example. Beautifully crafted leather goods. My Color Me Kinky wrist cuffs suit me perfectly in part because purple is my favorite color. You can pick from 16 different shades of leather and get a set that fits you perfectly too! Buy it here. |

Which Edible Panties Taste (and fit) the Best?
December 11, 2012 § 1 Comment
Why does everyone think I will know the answer to this question!?!
Never mind.
Edible panties are a lot like a dry, thin fruit roll up. They are supposed to taste best if you lick lick lick them. But most people gnaw off a bit and try chewing them and consequently do not get to enjoy the full edible panty flavor and experience. But to be honest, I have never been crazy about the taste no matter how I devour ‘em.
Besides that, they are supposed to be one size fits all because they have strings that you tie at the hips. This way they can fit “all”, but they really only fit people who are about a size medium or smaller. Making them wildly disappointing for anyone who is average or above average in size.
But don’t dismay! I did some research and found two new alternatives to the old edibles! The Candy G String is just like those candy necklaces we used to eat as kids. The elastic that binds these panties together makes it possible for almost anyone to fit.
And for the craft-stars out there, you can make your own licorice whip panties. Yum! The folks at Knitty.com have given you the complete pattern!

Butterscotch Butts for Everyone!
October 31, 2012 § 2 Comments
I’m touring a lot these days… Baltimore was a dream! That town always treats me right. I had two big events at Sugar. They had just gotten in a batch of dirty chocolates… you know candy boobs, butts, vulvas and cocks. The supplier also sent a HUGE bag of irregular, butterscotch butts! Oh holy, yummy bonanza of butterscotch butts! My audience helped us eat them. I’ll be back in Baltimore in March.
I had not been to Philadelphia in years. Again, my events overflowed with really awesome people. I presented in the Aphrodite Gallery space at the Sexploritorium. I had never been to this store before and I was really impressed with the shop, such a finely curated collection of toys and fetish gear. I’ll be back there in December.
Much thanks to everyone who came out, soaked up my presentations, ate butts and gave me such wonderful nights. I’ll be back for you.

I’m a cross between a strawberry and a pear. But I know I am sweet as could be. Oh and I love bananas! And watermelons. And blueberries. Ok, I like all the fruit.

Public Display of Hygiene (PDH)
September 26, 2012 § Leave a Comment
I could hear the familiar sound. The one that makes my skin crawl. It was this guy. Clipping his fingernails on the ef’in NYC subway! His snipped bits flipping through the train car. Boomeranging off every surface. Everyone moved away in an effort to find cover. And still he did not notice. No one enjoys a public display of hygiene! (PDH) Bluck.
People. Please. Wear your pajamas to the grocery store. Line a public toilet seat with tissue before you perch upon it. Put on lipstick at the restaurant table. (Hey, that can be sexy!) But for the love of all things – don’t clip your fingernails on public transportation! At any moment I was ready for him to pop off his shoes and socks and dig into his toe nails as well. Double bluck!
He’s not the only one though. Once on an airplane a woman three rows back from me was clipping her fingernails. She only got about 5 clips in before someone else asked her to refrain. And one other time, when I was a kid, I was watching a movie with my new foster parents. He was eating popcorn on one end of the couch. She was clipping her toe nails on the other end of the couch. I was sitting in the middle. We all saw and heard it happen. One ambitious toe nail clipping flipped up into the air and landed smack dab in his popcorn. I’ll never forget it.
I just had to get this out of my system. Thank you.

Toxic Sex Toys: What’s In Your Toy Box?
September 21, 2012 § 6 Comments
Sex toys, like cosmetics and vitamins, are unregulated. Consequently there’s some frightening stuff out there on store shelves and online stores. This is why I speak about these issues and try to help you become a more informed consumer.
This weekend I was fortunate enough to go to Catalyst Con in Los Angeles and be a part of a panel called Toxic Toys. Along side me was Metis of Tantus (makers of healthy for the body toys) and Jennifer of Smitten Kitten (the healthiest sex shop ever.) All three of us have been activist around these issues and have worked hard to inspire change in the sex toy industry.
Because I do not manufacture or sell toys, I have been able to speak rather freely about the toxic toy issue. But whenever one tries to inspire change the first thing they are met with is “ridicule.” People work to demean the the person in an effort to discredit them. This has been Metis’ experience over the years.
The next response, after the truth becomes more evident, is “violent opposition.” The folks at Smitten Kitten have faced that head on and with heads held high.
And today, with the power of bloggers and the force of online communication between consumers, we are now moving towards a better stage of change. That being a bit of “accepted as self evident.” Some consumers are now expecting toys to be safer and healthier for their bodies.
There is still much work to be done, but all of us can be a part of the change. If you are a blogger, write about safer toys. Shun the toxic toys. If you are a consumer, buy products you can trust, from retailers you can trust. You’ll be healthier and a part of the movement to ensure more demand for the healthiest products.
Want to know more? I have a curated list of shops and manufacturers you can trust posted on the right sidebar of the main page of my blog. Metis has posted this insightful environmental study done in Denmark. And here is a video of Jennifer sharing her experiences:
