Happy Thanksgiving to our Readers!0

From all of us at HealthyandActive.com: Happy Thanksgiving!

We’re thankful every day that you keep coming back to HealthyandActive, and we hope we do our part to keep you “coming” too! This Thanksgiving, rather than lament on what you could have, instead be thankful for all the good things you do have, all the things that give you joy in life.

Sure, we may be primarily a sex toys store, but the real reason we do what we do is to ensure everyone has a smile on their faces and are celebrating what’s natural to them. So go ahead, indulge and enjoy yourself (maybe with some nice Sex Toys), and give yourself or your partner a fun little “thank you” gift.

Admit it, you’ll never look at a gourd the same way!

Make The Sex So Good, She’ll Thank You!0

Ever have those nights where you’re both bathed in hot sweat, and you just lay in silence with big grins on your faces? Make those nights the norm by consulting the Kama Sutra. Inside it’s revered pages are hot tantric sex tips – even just looking at the illustrations will get you all hot and bothered. We all need a little help discovering new positions, and the Kama Sutra is the oh-so-right book for that. You won’t know what you’re missing until you try it…and once you do, you’ll be moaning in delight that you did.

Enjoy, readers, and begin your path to sexual enlightenment this Thanksgiving. She’ll be thanking you and begging for more.

Let Nina Hartley teach that old dawg some new tricks!5

You gotta love Nina Hartley. The woman not only has a serious rear end going on =), but she manages to put out these cool instructional videos. Now, I’m look at this one that talks about Threesomes and I’m thinking that there should be a video prior to this one that all about “How to ask for the threesome without getting your cock chopped off!” Once you’re in there though, go all out and have fun with. We have several of Miss Hartley’s DVDs. Everything from threesomes to light bondage to anal pleasure. You’ll even get to watch her “demonstrate” these techniques on film — so basically you’re getting porn you can learn from. I call that a great two-for-one deal.

Or in this case a three-for-one special! No wait… threesome, right? Yeah two-for-one makes more sense. Anyhow…

Having your cake and eating it too!0

Right now, Healthy and Active is giving out free standard shipping (in the US and Canada) for all purchases that exceed $69 dollars. I always found it so funny that we use 69 as a target number, but I’m sure it’s a number that you’ll remember easy. 1 partner plus 1 partner = 69, haha.

Anyhow, the banner is more about what you want to have for dessert, but we all know what’s being implied here. Imagine taking some chocolate and placing it over your partner’s body. Then licking it off while they moan and sigh and grab their hand on the headboard. Imagine creating a chocolate penis? YES, a chocolate penis. Gives new meaning to POUND CAKE, doesn’t it? There are plenty of ways you could celebrate the upcoming Thanksgiving tradition without being traditional.

So go for it, what would you like to eat!? What would YOU like to see on your dinner table?

Dude, you got dominated by a giiirrrrlll….(or my fascination with light bondage)0

Do you remember back in the school when you saw a guy get beat up by a girl? Do you remember when his friends would laugh at him. Apparently, getting dominated by a girl wasn’t looked upon too favorably in social circles. Now, it’s probably those same guys who have a one-a-week encounter with Dominatrix [insert name here].

When I started working here a few years ago, I became fascinated with the appeal of light bondage — and to an extent role play, in general. Men, who spend 40 hours a week (maybe more) being corporate and managerial; who are giving out the orders and making sure that their team(s) run smoothly, could find themselves for a couple of hours on the weekends, taking orders and being dominated by a woman (be it their wife, girlfriend or hired dominatrix).

Today, I’m still fascinated with the idea of light bondage. In talking to some of my friends who regularly engage in the practice, I’m sure their sick of me asking every 5th question “What’s the appeal for you?”. Of course, everyone has their own reasons for enjoying light bondage and I’ll probably never get one generic answer, but I still find the different reasons that people use to be interesting: They’ve said anything from “I enjoy letting my partner have all of the power” to “I’m spend a majority of my life giving the rules, and sometimes I just want to receiving the rules” to “It’s the best way for me to reach an orgasm”. All fascinating thoughts.

So I wanted to pose the question to the readers: Do you engage in light bondage play (or even role play)? If you don’t what makes you hesitant to try it? If you do, what ultimately put you in the realm to try it and what kept you there?
