Remember that exhaustive, 50-page article on sex toys I was writing that totally ruined my life for 3 weeks? That bitch is published, yo. Go learn about dildos.
I feel like a dick for this, but any mistakes/funky formatting/missed hyperlinks you find in there, um, aren’t my doing. My writing process includes a minimum of 10 extensive proofreads. Just saying. I also don’t know where the two extra “ever”s in the title came from – the draft I sent in only had one, but I guess someone thought you really needed to be convinced of the thoroughness of this thing.

Presumably the extra evers are there to make clear how very, very, very extensive the article is.
On the subject of sex toys, evidently people are using them in churches across New Zealand:

Halfway through. Must quibble:
“According to Good Vibrations, about 50 percent of all harness sales are to heterosexual couples interested in male penetration. ”
Really? Not the numbers, but the terminology. Good Vibrations separates out the queer-spectrum-but-opposite-sex-partnered folks in their data? Or they say “heterosexual couples” when they mean “opposite sex couples”?

Really good article. I was surprised you didn’t mention that some women can come just from the base of the dildo during strap-on fucking, in the paragraph about pleasure for the strap-on fucker. But overall, very thorough and informative.

I don’t fucking know, dude. That stat came straight from the Good Vibrations Guide to Sex book. I spent, like, 150 hours of my free time writing this thing for absolutely no money – I learned to let the need to be compulsively accurate and inclusive and unoffensive go.

I didn’t? I could have swore I wrote something about the possibility of getting off from having the dildo press against you when wearing the harness. I really thought I did – somewhere when I was talking about how to select a harness and getting one that fits lower and hits your clit.
Well, anyway…thanks for reading all of it!

Oops! Yes, you did, last sentence of the section. I looked for it higher up, and then I guess I read past it after the part about double-enders and plugs for the wearer.
I thought the second paragraph of the strap-on section, about lots of reasons dudes like to get pegged, was really good on the sensitive-and-inclusive discourse front.

Haha – well in all seriousness, thanks for keeping me on my toes. I want to write as well and informatively as I can, and I really am thankful to have folks like you willing to read my shit and offer feedback. I totally appreciate having your support! I just added Yes Means Yes to the blogroll, but if you have your own blog, please let me know so I can add that too!
