KY that is. the mega-marts and mega-grocers are starting to carry astroglide, too.

and vibrators

and soft-core porn

this long (http://www.newsweek.com/id/110965/page/1) long newsweek article/op-ed piece highlights some of the sexual aids and accoutremonts available at some surprising places. perhaps our society isn't as prudish as we think.


i can only comment on what i see but i've noticed warming gels and scented oils become available in just the last few years in our small-sized, small-town grocery. the mechanical "toothbrushes" and "exfoliators" were a sex-tool in flimsy disguise from the beginning - there aren't too many women or men out there who wouldn't know exactly what to do with one - but now i see there are "personal massagers" as well. more obvious? and the condom varieties went from lubed with sperm killer or not, to downright naughty.

thoughts?

what's it like on the shelves in places besides the US? are these sorts of things available normally? have they always been?

Explaining to my ex-MIL why there were flavoured condoms was interesting.

they still keep most stuff locked up here and you have to ask for it.

I order online mostly but have seen the KY stuff etc.

I've seen things like vibrating cock rings in the drugstores here, on the condom shelves.

I didn't really think this was anything new. We bought my wifes second vibrator at Walmart. Of course the box said "massager", but it was the exact same Wahl massager we had seen in the Adam and Eve catalog for about half the price. That was almost 15 years ago.

The Walgreens drug store in my tiny Kansas town has Wet brand lubricant. I haven't seen the vibrating cock rings yet but had heard that Walgreens and CVS were selling them.
