Review: Sliquid Sassy
Sep 19th
Sliquid Sassy booty formula is the first anal lube I have tried, since my adventures into the world of anal play are only just now beginning. I had tried Sliquid Silver before and liked it enough that I wanted to look at more Sliquid lubes. I’m very glad I did!
Sliquid Sassy is a thick, gel-like water-based lube that stays where it is put. It comes in a 4oz. bottle that is a great size, but if you want to take it on the airplane with you, you would need to put it into a smaller bottle since the airlines currently only allows 3oz. bottles on aircraft. I plan on taking it to Spain next summer to continue my anal adventures, so I’ll be putting it in a new bottle. I’ll be there for 3 months and can’t survive without good lube!
The flip top on the bottle works well. It is easy to dispense from, yet keeps too much from coming out at once. This way you won’t be swimming in lube when you just want a little spot. It also won’t pop open at an inopportune moment, so your bag won’t be dripping lube when you’re having dinner with your parents!
I have used Sliquid Sassy both anally and vaginally and I have to say it stands up very well for both uses. One of the greatest things is that you don’t have to worry about yeast infections or any sort of burning sensation when using it because it is glycerin, paraben and petro-chemical free! It provides a great moisturizing feel when used both anally and vaginally.
You won’t have to reapply every 3 minutes because this lube is built to last. I first used it when using my Fun Factory Bootie plug and during a 35 minute time of having it in, never felt like it was drying up or becoming uncomfortable in any way. Also, used vaginally it rivaled the lasting time of silicone lubricant, but without the problems I seem to have with silicone (it builds up in my vagina & tries to camp out for days).
I would definitely recommend Sliquid Sassy for anyone who wants a good lube that lasts and is free of infection and irritation causing nasties. You can get your own bottle over at EdenFantasys!

Review: Naughty Boy
Sep 9th
I ordered the Naughty Boy almost on a whim right after my boyfriend expressed that he liked the feeling of me using my LELO Mia around his asshole. I figured, “This is my chance!” He said he was open to the idea, but wanted to make sure whatever we got was not too big. Enter Naughty Boy. After a brief conversation with anal toy guru Jimbo Jones, the Naughty Boy was in my cart, purchased and coming for my boyfriend’s asshole via USPS.
The Rocks Off Naughty Boy is made of 100% silicone with a removable bullet vibe. Because it’s silicone you shouldn’t use silicone based lubricant with the Naughty Boy as it can erode the pretty, velvety texture of the toy. The great thing about silicone is that it’s hypoallergenic and also can be sterilized, which is something I find to be required for an anal toy. Just make sure you remove the bullet first if you’re going to put in into boiling water or the dishwasher.
The bullet has the option of replacing the battery so that your toy can last a lifetime. Also, Rocks Off sells replaceable bullets, but I have not seen them online yet. The batteries can easily be found at a battery store or even WalMart and are cheap enough that you won’t be complaining every time you have to replace the batteries.
The silicone does have a slight seam running up the toy, but it is not a hindrance. If you have or have seen the LELO Ella, it is about the same size of seam. Neither of us complained about the seam because we couldn’t feel it.
When the Naughty Boy got to my house, I got so excited that we almost forgot that we had to let out the neighbor’s dog that day! We ran into the house and put the Naughty Boy to work. After warming up my boyfriend a little bit with some oral then added copious amounts of lube to both his ass and the Naughty Boy and inserted it. Insertion was a slow process and we finally had to stop before the bump in the toy because his ass wasn’t ready for that yet and we didn’t want to strain any muscles. After some oral combined with the Naughty Boy he experienced the longest orgasm of his life. It was actually a big shock because it was nearing a whole minute!
I tried the Naughty Boy vaginally for a bit, but the size is too small to provide enough stimulation for me and the vibrations don’t carry that well vaginally. I have yet to try it in my ass, but that is definitely on our to-do list.
Overall I would recommend the Naughty Boy to anyone new to anal play and prostate play. It’s very unintimidating and easy to use, as well as easy to clean and care for. Get your own Naughty Boy at EdenFantasys!

- Fresh Chain Leash by AveryDragon
Humiliation on its own seems petty and mean; this I do admit. However, humiliation is the key for lust and passion when the person being humiliated secretly enjoys it. [...] Fresh uses bright pastel colors that a guy might get his girl to ease her into the idea of BDSM by showing it can be cute but still strong. In my case, when there are two guys involved, I make my boy take one for the team and work with products he never dreamed of being in.

Review: Astroglide glycerin and paraben free
Aug 29th
So I’ve been putting off writing this review because, well, there’s really not much to say. I ordered a bottle of Astroglide glycerin and paraben free mainly to use with my Diva Cup when I have to put it in at school.
If there is one thing that Astroglide got right on this one, it’s the bottle. Coming in at only 2.5 ounces, it is the perfect size to put into your purse or bag, and is also small enough to take in your carry-on when flying! The top on the bottle is a flip top which is very secure, so you won’t have to worry about it leaking all over your new shoes, etc. So far I’ve carried it in my bag once and found no issues. It’s big enough to find when you need it, even if you happen to carry one of those one-pocket-catches-all totes, and small enough to not take up much room and not scream, “Hi! [Insert name here] has lube in his/her bag!”
Since it is glycerin and paraben free you are less likely to get a UTI or a yeast infection from its use. However, there is a small problem with this lube – its smell. It smells a little bit chemically, which I find odd seeing as how it’s glycerin and paraben free. Isn’t it supposed to be less chemically smelling? I wish it was more like Toyfluid in the sense that it doesn’t smell at all.
Also, even though it’s glycerin free, it still gets that sticky feeling to it after a couple of minutes like sugary lubes do. Also, it dries up after about 5 minutes, making reapplication necessary frequently. This makes me wonder if this lube is actually any better than some of the glycerin containing lubes. Have they replaced glycerin with something equally sticky and bad for you? Since I’m not an expert on lubes, I can’t tell which of the ingredients are good and which aren’t, but I’m hoping that’s not the case.
All in all I give it a 2/5. I’ll probably be keeping this in my purse to put in my Diva Cup and out of the bedroom.
On PSAs that piss me off
Aug 26th
I’m not sure if any of you have had the pleasure of seeing one of the current PSAs from the government on teen sexuality, but since I can’t find it on YouTube to show you, I’ll summarize it. The announcement begins with a father in the kitchen of a house pulling himself on an imaginary rope towards his daughter sitting at a table in the other room. He finally wins and goes to talk to his daughter. And what does the voice-over say? That it’s not that hard to talk to your kids about sex, “Tell us what you want us to do. Tell us to wait to have sex.”
You may ask, “What is Saraid’s problem with this PSA?” Well, not once does it mention anything about safe sex and informed choices on the part of the young girl. It doesn’t tell parents to talk about birth control, STD prevention and how you should not be pressured into sex. What it does talk about is about the equivalent of “Oh my god. Don’t fuck. No! Jesus will hate you and you’ll be dirty for your husband, because we all know you are a straight, pro-marriage, virginity-saving, man-serving girl.”
The worst thing? This isn’t put out by some anti-choice agency; it’s put out by the US government’s department of health. How are young people expected to feel okay about sexuality if even an authority on health is not mentioning the idea that young people can have informed, consensual and satisfying sex?
