JimmyJane pleasure products are sleek, well-made and handsome, but they’re also on the higher price range price. Are they worth it? I tried out five of them to help you decide. This is the first in a five-part series:

JimmyJane’s Iconic Rabbit: The Usual Suspects Collection: This was the first JimmyJane product I owned and the first rabbit I tried. Wandering the aisles of The Pleasure Chest in West Hollywood, CA, I found myself awash in a sea of garish rabbit and rabbit-like devices not knowing which to choose. The great thing about The Pleasure Chest is that all their sales associates are educators as well and very well-versed in all of their products. After I made a glib comment about the flashy designs of most of the choices, the salesperson steered me to JimmyJane’s Iconic Rabbit.

Initially attracted to it’s no-nonsense design devoid of glitter, pearls and bright color that the sex toy industry assumes women like, I was pleasantly pleased with the salesperson’s review and quickly ran home to try it out. Let’s just say I was MORE than thrilled with it’s performance. With the Iconic Rabbit angled just right I was able to have my FIRST simultaneous g-spot/clitoral orgasm. For that feat alone it should receive an award.

Made of durable, phalate-free and body-safe materials (like all of their toys you can feel confident exposing your most intimate areas to this vibe. The Iconic Rabbit has a rotating shaft, inner “pearls” and a divine set of bunny ears that hit me at just the right “spot.” It’s dual slide, individual speed controls let you play with different speeds for different areas and test and choose the intensity that’s right for you.  Contrary to other Rabbit’s I’ve tried since, I found JimmyJane’s Iconic Rabbit to be versatile enough for when I want powerful stimulation and for when I am in the mood for a lighter touch. In addition, it’s aesthetically pleasing and goes well with my white and grey bedroom … it’s the little things that make a difference, right?

By myself or in the hand of a partner, this Rabbit performs and, after 5 years of continuous use, has held up just as well as the day I bought it … well worth the price. I recommend this to women who are just about to buy their first sex toy and to couples who want to start experimenting with toys. One of the best ways to build intimacy with a partner (and see how they like to be pleasured) is to watch each other masturbate. The Iconic Rabbitis the perfect choice for this setting as it’s size and appearance are non-threatening to men and to women who aren’t used to playing with a toy in bed.

The drawbacks? Unlike a lot of JimmyJane products the Iconic Rabbit is not waterproof so I recommend using a toy cleaning wipe or spray (I like pjur med clean intimacy soft cleansing fleece). Room for improvement? Sure, I’d like to see a girthier version in the future for a little variety and a waterproof one would open up more possibilities … but that’s just me. Regardless, I’ll still be hitting up Mr. Iconic Rabbit for late night trysts.

The CAT Position: A Key to Unlocking Your Orgasms

sexual-position-conception-1By Dr. Jessica O’Reilly

If you’ve done some research or have a little practical experience, you likely already know that experimenting with a wide range of sexual play is the key to great sex, as most women don’t orgasm during penile-vaginal intercourse alone. However, this doesn’t mean that orgasms during intercourse are out of the question. In fact, orgasms that combine penetration with clitoral stimulation can be intensely satisfying for all parties involved.

One approach to orgasm-inducing intercourse involves the Coital Alignment Technique (CAT). This positioning and movement can provide a woman with both vaginal and clitoral stimulation, stimulate a man’s shaft and prostatic nerves and does not require any challenging gymnastic moves or flexibility. Hooray! Because we’re tired of swinging off chandeliers, right?

The CAT is a basic modification of the missionary position that involves the man riding up on a woman’s pelvis so they can rock and rub the clitoris against the base of his penis and/or pelvic bone. Here’s the basic breakdown:

  1. The woman lies on her back and the man lies on top inserting his penis into the vagina.
  2. He then shifts his body upwards along hers (he can rest his hands/arms beside her head) so that the base of his penis and pelvic bone press firmly against her clitoral hood and pelvic bone.
  3. Often the CAT involves the woman pressing her pelvis upwards and wrapping her feet around his calves.
  4. Play with synchronized rocking and rubbing movements as opposed to in-and-out thrusting.
  5. Some women find intensified pleasure in squeezing their legs together during the CAT to create greater friction and tension. This squeezing sensation can also intensify the male partner’s pleasure.

CAT-300x165Sound technical? It’s really quite simple and feels a lot better than it looks on paper. Don’t take my word for it. Try it out for yourself!

Once you’ve got the hang of rubbing the clitoral hood and female pelvic bone against the hard base of the penis and/or male pelvic bone during intercourse, you can modify the CAT into a range of other positions on your side or even upside down.

If the CAT doesn’t make you tingle with passion, don’t feel the need to give up on intercourse entirely. No singular approach to pleasure works for every woman, but if you keep experimenting, you’ll find your triggers. Play with running water, vibrating toys, fingers, tongues and fantasy until you find your toes curling with pleasure beneath the sheets (or on the hood of the car as the case may be).

And ladies and gents, please don’t ignore all your other beautiful erogenous zones: the brain, breasts, thighs, backs of knees, feet, palms, neck, ears, belly, bum and more!

Some women can orgasm through fantasy alone and others can reach the heights of ecstasy with a little breast play. Others swear by anal stimulation, while some find sharing of far-fetched fantasies incomparable as a means to orgasmic release.

Combine any of these activities to find what works for you. With the right attitude and a healthy sense of humour, you should enjoy both the process and the end result.

Have fun experimenting and always practice safer sex!

Carpe Sex! How To Change Your Sexual Attitude

By Lady Cheeky

Ahhh January – the crisp, bracing air, the relief that the holidays are behind us and the optimistic promise of a whole new year ahead. Each January my friends, colleagues and nosy grocery store clerks ask me the dreaded question “have you made any New Year’s resolution’s?” My reply is always the same one I give for anyone asking me my age “Fine thank you”. The confused look on their faces never ceases to amuse me as I slink away; proud I’ve escaped answering that question yet again.

I’m not a big fan of New Year’s resolutions. I’ve always been an immediate gratification gal and didn’t make the yearly over-promise because it always seemed too high aiming and unachievable in a satisfying amount of time … at least for this impatient writer.

Yet, I can’t deny there is some wisdom in making a resolution and sticking to it. The discipline and drive to commit to an immediate improving of one’s condition is a great way to ameliorate … Click HERE to read the rest of the article on EVOLVED WORLD!

 

Aneros’ Evi Garnering Praise: Sex Educators Loving Design, Performance

evi_4x6postcard-1Originally appeared in AVN Business Sep 24th, 2012 

LONG BEACH, Calif.—Evi, the revolutionary hands-free Kegel exerciser by health-conscious manufacturer Aneros, made its debut before an audience of sex experts, health advocates and discerning consumers at the CatalystCon conference in Long Beach, Calif., Sept. 14-16.

Evi was presented to CatalystCon attendees by Ducky Dolittle, a renowned sexpert of more than 20 years. Doolittle’s seminar, “Kegels and the Art of Orgasm,” offered conference attendees a guided tour of the female anatomy and the benefits of strengthening PC muscles, which control urine flow and contract during orgasm. A self-proclaimed “Kegel monster,” Doolittle offered her full endorsement of Evi, noting her personal mind-blowing experience with Aneros’ latest revolutionary design and subsequent partnership with the brand after personally contacting Aneros.

“It’s totally unique,” Doolittle said in her presentation of Evi. “Aneros understands the anatomy unlike any other company.”

CatalystCon organizer Dee Dennis stated, “I was thrilled Aneros chose CatalystCon to debut Evi. CatalystCon is about creating change, and I feel we created something groundbreaking by launching a product not at the traditional industry trade show, but instead with actual sex education, going right to those who will use Evi. The message Aneros sent by debuting Evi at CatalystCon was their first concern is not bottom line or sales, but the sexual health and well being of those who will be using Evi.”

The hands-free device is anatomically designed to fit all women and is made of a velvety smooth medical-grade silicone material guaranteeing users sensual stimulation while strengthening PC muscles. With correct insertion, Evi alternately stimulates the G-spot and clitoris with a simple Kegel exercise, essentially providing pleasurable incentives for Kegel fitness.

Firm enough to pivot and hold its shape while providing comfort, Evi delivers an inner fullness by adapting to the anatomical contours of a woman’s vagina. Contracting and relaxing pelvic floor muscles causes Evi to caress the anterior wall of the vagina known as the G-spot, while externally stimulating the clit. The pace and pressure can be controlled by rocking and twirling the hips, thus offering women versatile stimulation.

Early reviews of Evi report strengthened PC muscles and intense orgasms marked by involuntary vaginal contractions, to which Evi responds by elongating the experience and often leading to female ejaculation. For newbies, Evi by Aneros offers a valuable tool for gauging PC muscle strength, while encouraging fitness with rewarding results during each use.

Sex Blogger and sex-positive activist Lady Cheeky said, “I was interested in Evi primarily for its Kegel focus. I found Evi provided me with a comfortable, and dare I say, enjoyable workout for my pelvic floor muscles. Once inserted, my Kegels were immediately engaged and intuitively clasped onto Evi, making the Kegel exercise itself thought-free. Extremely comfortable, I could walk, sit, and drive, all the while knowing Evi was secure and doing its job. Evi is like a barbell for your lady bits!”

“We attend a lot of conferences and have interacted with a lot of sponsors, and we’ve never been as impressed as we were with Aneros at CatalystCon,” stated EvilSlutopia.com co-founders and Executive Editors Lilith and Jezebel. “The fact they chose CatalystCon for the Evi launch says a lot about them as a company and their dedication to sex positivity and sex education …We’ve never seen any sponsor treat the conference organizer so well or be so genuinely nice, helpful, and professional and just overall fucking awesome to everyone.”

At the conclusion of Doolittle’s presentation of Evi at CatalystCon, a raffle sent several enthusiastic winners home with an Evi of their own—however, discarded packaging in the women’s bathroom suggested some women couldn’t wait to take Evi for a spin.

The demand for Evi also is evident on its dedicated Facebook page at Facebook.com/eviByAneros.

Choosing the Best G-Spot Vibrator

By Trina Denzel

The concept seems so simple: a straight device with 45 degree tilted tip. Supposedly the key to intense internal orgasmic power, then why are some women feeling less than pleased with their vibrator?

The truth is some models are purely for looks. Made to look stylish on the shelf to incite the customer to make a  purchase. Others have the tilted tip sort of like an afterthought, considered a “value added feature” to a standard vibrator.

This does not mean they won’t feel good however, but if your intended purpose is to get the best g-spot stimulation, there’s a few things you should be looking for before you hit the checkout.  If you need a refresher on where the g-spot is, you can check out this video by Dr. Oz from Oprah.com

6 Features Found on the Best G-Spot Vibrator:

 1.  A Firm Touch

A firm build should be your only choice with plastic being the best. Any soft material will bend or squish, reducing the pressure placed on the g-spot. If comfort is a concern, let it be known you may feel a poke as you slide it inwards but once in place, it’s smooth sailing to pleasuretown!

 2.   A Helping Handle

When the vibrator is inside of you, it’s easy to have it miss your point, especially if you’re thrusting or moving around. Moving a few centimeters to the side can mean the difference between a massively wonderful orgasm and an OK one. If the vibe has a finger loop at the base or the like near the bottom to help you distinguish which way it’s facing, you’ll never stray from the intended spot.

 3.   Vibration at the Tip

Luckily, most vibrators of this style have motor placement at the top – but not all. Read the product description or ask the sales associate where the motor is located. A motor right in the curved tip is going to radiate the strongest sensation directly into your body.

 4.   Thinner is a Winner

There is a multitude of widths for sale but for precise g-spot massage, you’ll want to choose one with a thinner shaft. The reason is, a thicker shaft feels good as the labia, but it competes with the feeling of g-spot massage. Save the thicker vibrator for your realistic model or even dildo selection. A thin shaft is typically 1 1/2 inches wide or less.

 5.   Must Have Power

This tip can possibly conflict with tip number 4. Consequently, a thinner shaft means smaller structure which means less space for batteries which means less power. It’s not to say vibes using a single battery are not good, they will still give you a great massage but a stronger level of vibration really takes it up a big step. Look for a vibrator that uses at least 2 AA batteries or 3 AAA’s.

6.   Longer is not better

A tip your man would love to hear, just kidding! There are many excellent vibes on the market that are short. Some women don’t even look twice at these models thinking they won’t reach, but truth is the g-spot is only 2 – 3 inches up, extra length will not carry any orgasmic benefit.

These guidelines can help you choose the g-spot vibrator that will offer the strongest orgasm potential. Even though several styles exist only a select handful will provide all the features listed above offering a woman the chance to enjoy a secret orgasm that radiates internally, a big difference from a clitoral orgasm. And a g-spot vibrator is often very economical as well allowing better pleasure at an affordable price.
