Admittingly one of our most popular products at Healthy and Active is the Trinity Rabbit Vibrator. In fact, the rabbit vibrator is one of the most popular products sold. Spawning generations of new models with different designs and features, the Trinity Rabbit Vibrator still remains one of *the* go-to products for women to enjoy.
Our friend, Trisha Uptown, took the Trinity Rabbit Vibrator for a whirl and it appears she had quite the good time with it. Here’s a video where she discusses the benefits and her personal thoughts on the product. Plus, did we mention that we’re offering the Trinity Rabbit for 70% off the regular price! Sounds good, huh?
I remember when in the olden days, men would go into an adult store and travel into one of those booths with the camera style contraption, where they put in a quarter and a 30-second reel of a woman undressing down to her lingerie. It seems that today we have gone far past that. Now thanks to technology, we can make sex pretty much available anytime, anywhere and practically with anyone. It’s an orgy on the information superhighway.
Erotic emails? Sexy text messages? More and more, people are using technology as a means for engaging in sexual behavior both with their partner and with total strangers. For this Hump Day I wanted to start a discussion about technology and sex, more specifically how technology has changed (or evolved) the way we engage with each other sexually. I don’t mean each other as in you and me, I mean each other as in you and your partner or… yeah, you know what I mean.
In articles I’ve read about texting for example, many partners use this feature as a means to share little notes with each other during the day. They also use it to send naughty photos of each other and get each other in the mood while they’re sitting at their desk. I believe the folks call it sexting now. You have to wonder what people did before there was text messages and email. Did you send a physical postal letter? Then there are naughty emails. With the hope that you’re using your personal email account and not the office system, who doesn’t mind a little naughty photo appearing in their inbox every now and then?
I’ll tell you it’s also funny. With social networking services like Twitpic and Foursquare, people even use those in sexually-charged fashion. Twitpic (and others like Yfrog), for example, is a much faster way to share with the world how you look when you leave the shower or how that how new swimsuit makes your cleavage standout more. People jokingly use services like Foursquare to check into places like “My girlfriend’s pants” (and let’s hope they’re still the mayor of THAT town!).
But then look at the more broader sense of technology and sex. Think of things like web chatting. Web cams are probably one of the hottest sex-related businesses out there. You’re able to turn on a computer and a camera and interact with a live person in real-time. As you make requests, they acknowledge and perform them for you. Even things like the new “Facetime” for iPhone 4 can be the kernel for a new sex-performer related business model.
It appears to me that as technology grows, changes and modifies itself for an ever moving society, sex and how we involve ourselves with it will evolve as well. One of the running thoughts I have whenever I see a new technology announcement (especially when it’s billed as something revolutionary) is “How will the porn industry take advantage of it?” or “How will we hear about society using it to get each other off!?”
But what are your thoughts dear readers? How do you think technology has been changing sex? And let’s even throw this out there: How has technology changed or modified the way you interact with your own partner in your everday life?
Let’s sound off and get off, people!

One of the great things about having a social channel to reach customers is that you get to learn from them on a daily basis. I have this honor of spending a portion of my day hearing directly from you and finding out what turns you on and make makes you wet (or hard, some particular instances). There hasn’t been a day yet where I haven’t came away (for lack of better phrasing) glad to enjoy some quality time with you guys.
Now, a question I’m tossing out there today is about your first adult product experience. Specifically, I’m interested in your first toy. I want to know what was your first purchased or received toy. Many of us have traveled through the confines of an adult store and picked up that rabbit vibrator or marveled at the size of that dildo, but what was the first product that actually made it through your front doorway (actually, through the front of your bedroom door and through the front opening in between your legs).
I’ll tell you mine: it was one of those male masturbation strokers. You know the ones that are designed to look like an actual vagina. I was given this thing as a gag gift during a friend’s white elephant exchange. He was kind of insistent that I choose it, so I think he was trying to tell me something. When I got this thing home, I stared at it for like 20 minutes. Was I really supposed to place my penis into this thing? Why can’t I just go out to a club that night and come home with a real “stroker” (you feel me!?). Yet, because of insane curiosity, I thought I would give it a try.
I don’t remember, to this day, what specifically that stroker was (this event took place in the early days of college) but I can say that the experience of it was quite different. Strokers do something with your penis that no woman nor your hand can recreate. Even though they are designed to feel like a pussy, this particular stroker couldn’t be warmed up and I don’t remember vaginas feeling like sticking your cock into an igloo.
So now that I’ve put that image into your head, go ahead and tell me about your first experience with an adult toy. Was it what you imagined it to be? Better? Worse? Feel free to share. You can leave a comment on this blog post or share in the conversation over on Facebook.
It’s movie time, ladies and gentlemen. Today’s feature is about the Passion Wave Vibrator from Cal Exotics. These Passion Wave Vibes offer a rippling effect that could be very stimulating from the inside-out. So check out the video and if you want to get one for yourself, we have two of these vibe styles available at Healthy and Active right now.
I don’t claim to be an expert on maintaining a healthy sex life while raising kids, so today I decided to turn to the experts: real parents. Over on our Facebook page, today’s discussion is about ways parents can still keep the passion alive while still being responsible adults to their kids. So far, I’m reading some very insightful and wonderful ideas provided by our Facebook fans. If you wish to contribute, you can leave a comment here or add to the thread on at Facebook.
I did also want to share some of the great comments we’ve gotten so far on this topic:
“I had to learn the hard way NOT to walk into their bedroom on Wednesday nights…”
“My best advice is to try your best, at the beginning to make sure the babies have their own very special place to sleep.A place that is more attractive to them then mom and dads bed.”
“I try to get away for at least one night every few months, get a hotel room with my sweetie so we can do anything we want and not worry about waking up the kids with any noise.”
“Always hug and kiss goodbye and flirt with each other as often as possible! Teasing while you’re both busy doing chores is a great way to spice up your day, I usually grope him as we pass each other in the hall and he does the same hugging and kissing me while I do dishes. Keep your marriage fun!”
And for reference, the image used for this post is of the Sportsheets Hump and Bump Vibe, which I’m sure is a great way for couples to enjoy some time together. If you wanted to pick that up for you and your sweetie to use when the kids finally get to bed, we have it available at Healthy and Active!
