Ben Wa Balls

Ben Wa Balls:

Whilst the Ben Wa Balls do certainly provide a great work out (you really have to squeeze to keep them from falling out!)

They made me feel a little worried I’d lose them inside myself as they are so small and without any string attachment.

The first time I used them I didn’t use enough lube and one did go astray and result in a surge of panic. Of course it’s not possible to lose them inside oneself and after a few moments of comical jumping up and down on the spot the second one came back out.

I’ve used them since with more lube though with far more success and find that whilst I certainly don’t prefer them for PC exercise over the other balls available (I use the Je Joue Ami for these means)

I do enjoy the Ben wa balls for the fun factor as it does turn into a comical game of ‘keep them from popping out’ whilst you get on with whatever else it is that you’re doing at the time.

It certainly amuses both me and my partner and I’m getting the added bonus of some exercise alongside all this too!

Sex is supposed to be full of laugh out loud moments too and so I feel that these little balls are offering something unique that the others don’t.

Clitoral pumping may seem at bit weird,  but we’re here  to tell you how amazing it can feel… and look!

With increasing numbers of women popping to their docs for a ‘little nip and tuck down there’ choosing to cultivate your lady garden into something that’s more visual than usual might be at odds with the times…

As women, we’re constantly being bombarded with the idea that women’s bits should be neat & petite, making us so vulnerable to perfect-pussy syndrome.

In the real world ( as opposed to the porn-world)  female genitals remain (mostly) hidden. As we grow up boys get to let it all hang out in changing rooms & showers, whilst girls bits remain coyly enveloped between legs.

Unless we have sex with other women, the only real chance we get to view other women’s genitals is through porn and of course that’s fantasy, not real!

The botom line is that, just few men own 9 inches of perfect throbbing circumcised manhood, few women own rose-bud clits and tiny, perfectly symmetrical lips.

No wonder we get hung up, if ours don’t match up

To counter this negativity we’d like to tell you about two things:

Private Pictures is a self-affirming drawing group for women run by our friends at Fannies Rule where women get together, arm themselves with mirrors and some drawing utensils, fortify themselves with a glass of wine ( if necessary) and get down with the self-portraits. We think that more women should take a look at themselves and see themselves as beautiful. Whilst we may get hung up on having lopsided lips or ones that the porn industry deem “too big”, our partners definitely dont! Sex is visual and fabulous sex is about being confident enough to let it all hang out…

To really celebrate and appreciate the amazing visual and physical pleasure your nethers can provide, what about a little clitoral pumping? Clitoral pumping is about getting you plump, perk, pink and raring to go… Clitoral pumping will make you stand to attention, and stand out, in a way you never have before!

Clit Pump

We’ve come accross ( sorry! lame!) many clit pumps throughout the course of toy testing and many just don’t make the grade; if the cup is too big not enough suction can be created to be effective; too small and it’s a ditto; too hard and it can be painful:-(

Our clit pump works by way of a small hand-operated squeeze pump connected via a tube to a “cup” that fits nicely over the clitoral hood.

We were a little dubious at first, the slightly contraption-like feel of the pump, tube and spout not looking that conducive to feeling sexy…but the sheer impact of the results doesn’t leave you doubting for a minute! (indeed, if you go with the slightly doctors & nurses fetish, it fits in a treat!)

Never will you have seen such an enormously engorged female member!

In the same way that a penis pump draws blood to the male member, you are leaving your clitoral organ no choice but to stand to attention.

A few pumps on the squeezy bit and your clitoris is sucked right up into the cup, filling it with resplendent juicy flesh… A vibrating element then stimulates your now-very-receptive tissue at the very base of the clitoris.

As well as feeling just absolutely amazing this toy has so many possible positive implications… for post-menopausal/ older women where lubrication has become a concern, for those with reduced sensation/ blood flow issues or loss of libido where arousal and lack of stimulation are the problems.

If seen in the light of preparing your body for some further play, this toy really comes into its own.

Your most sensitive organ at its most sensitive will send shivers of delight throughout your whole body if then caressed, licked, sucked or rubbed against your lover’s (hopefully also pert!) flesh.

We can’t really recommend this enough, it is a fantastic addition to anyone’s toy box!

As founder of Sh! and creator of its ethos, I have been asked to clarify our position on trans people visiting Sh! We have been re-visiting this issue for almost the entire history of the store. I remember clearly the first time we ever had to address the question; 3 months after opening a builder came to the door and on being told he had to come with a woman, revealed he was wearing fishnet stockings…

Since then we have had many trans moments in about every permeation possible and often this has led to

Sh! does not believe in restrictive labels of “female” OR “male”, just as we don’t we believe in “gay” OR “straight” or “vanilla” OR “kinky”

We believe gender, like sexuality (and, actually, most things in life!) can be much more fluid than society dictates.

However much we may disagree with it, those born and living in this (male-focused world) as female, having been socialized as girls from the moment they were born,  have a different outlook, have different permissions granted to them and have different opportunities open to them, to those born and living as men.

We understand that trans people, having been born & socialized in a gender they don’t feel entirely or partly comfortable with, have a different set of challenges.

Sh! was created as a female-focused erotic shop almost 20 years ago as an antidote to sex shops that are alienating to women or which are prescriptive to our gender or sexuality.

Our policy is that we ask for a man to come along with women or to come on their own during “Gents Nites” held every Tuesday.

When we say “women” we generally mean anyone who identifies as female and uses the pronoun she/her.

When we say “men” we mean anyone identifies as male & who use the pronoun he/him.

We hope that trans people, however much they feel/felt excluded/isolated from the gender differences imposed on us all, can remember/empathise with women born, brought up and living as women in a pro-male society.

Our policy is not about excluding ANYBODY, but about making women feel safe in ONE place where they can talk about, express and explore their sexuality.

Its in place so that a woman never feels out-numbered or intimidated at Sh!

Men historically have the permission and the extra cash (30% + of it) to explore their sexuality and there’s many male-orientated shops in which they can.

Sh! would certainly make a lot more money if this policy wasn’t in place, but until women feel safe and celebrated out in the world (and as this hasn’t happened in millennia, I wouldn’t hold your breath…) we will keep the female focus of Sh!

Why?

· Anyone who has ever served a rape victim, a cervical cancer survivor or vagiismus sufferer would understand why women want and need a space like Sh!
· Ditto a lesbian who’s just coming out…
· Ditto a women who’s never had an orgasm…
· Dittto a menopausal women who is finding sex painful..
· Ditto a hundred different scenarios where a woman wants to talk about something deeply personal to her, without feeling anymore inhibited than she has to.

Our policy is not about men “behaving badly”. Certainly a minority of men do still see a woman in a sex shop as an easy target.

But simply the presence of a single guy (or being out-numbered by a male presence) can be enough to inhibit a woman from revealing herself and her sexuality. We wish it were not so, but this is fact. Until everyone’s sexuality, right to privacy and safety are deemed of equal value, then we will continue to be strong about our ethos and reason for being.

“Presenting” as male (or female) is a very subtle thing and sometimes (though we hope rarely) we may get it wrong. It is certainly not about looking “male” and we have many super- butch customers too prove it.

Male-born men (presenting as men) have a certain confidence in the way they enter the shop and our decision is generally based on this energy. We have 20years experience of serving queer folk so if we are in anyway unsure we will generally listen to that and veer on the side of a maybe…

A trans man, who is living as a man / transitioning / taking testosterone  will be asked to come with a woman. We hope that, as we respect his decision to enter a different world, so he will respect our space.

If we get it wrong and ask someone who is *not*  transitioning, someone who’s ‘hybrid’ ( as we hear some trans people refer to themselves) or ‘intersex’ ( ie they have a pussy and they’re proud of that!) to come with a woman, then they simply need to quietly let us know. If our customers can reveal something as private as sexual abuse, then surely we have created a safe enough atmosphere to do that?

We understand that this is a minefield and one we must re-visit quite regularly as more trans peeps come out and trans-identities become less binary.

We would welcome discussion on this as we do all issues that the Sh! ethos throws up. We’d like a dialogue so we can understand the issues as fully as possible and to be as inclusive as we can within our ethos.

If you are interested in joining us for a discussion ( and by that we don’t mean a slanging match!) then let us know and we’ll set it up.

Finally, just to clarify, the pink in Sh! is ironic … as is the name!

Folks who find the pink of Sh! Hoxton gender-offensive, will be happy to know that the discussion will be held over at Sh! Portobello which is in our re-branded colours of deep midnight & fuscia – though the discussion will be held in the art-space basement which is wall to wall white!

Come along to Sh! and get all tied up!

We’re delighted to announce that rope bondage expert Rod Macdonald will be giving a series of evening workshops at Sh! Hoxton in December and January.

This coincides with Rod’s exhibition of erotic and fetish photography at Sh! Hoxton.

These introductory workshops are designed for couples, with a maximum of six couples in each session. The person with you could be your partner, or lover, or just a friend. (Please note, that in keeping with Sh’s GENT‘S NITES policy, male couples will be very welcome at the workshop on Tuesday December 20.)

We’ll introduce you to the techniques of sensual, elegant, effective rope bondage, from simple wrist/ankle ties to more elaborate body harnesses.

There’ll be time for each of you to practice on the other if you want, rather than one of you always being the rigger, and the other always the ‘rope bunny’. You can use your own rope, buy some from Sh!, or borrow some from Rod for the evening.

For an unusual Christmas present, you can buy a place on the January workshop

The workshops will be two and a half hours long, starting at 6pm, on

Friday December 9,

Wednesday December 14,

Tuesday December 20, and

Wednesday January 25

What to wear: Rope bunnies should wear close-fitting T-shirt and leggings/shorts/yoga pants. The second half of the workshop includes body harnesses, where the rope passes between the rope bunny’s legs, so skirts/dresses aren’t suitable. There’s room to change at Sh!

Cost per couple: £45.00 If you’d like to do a workshop but don’t have someone to tie up, please contact Sh!, and we’ll do our best to find a ‘rope bunny’ to work with you, at an additional charge.

Spaces are limited and must be either booked in advance here or by calling our Hoxton Store on 020 7613 5458

As well as being an internationally exhibited erotic/fetish photographer, Rod Macdonald is an experienced bondage rigger and instructor, specialising in Japanese style ropework, often referred to as Shibari or Kinbaku. He’s taught bondage, and given bondage performances with his partner boykitten, all over the UK, and will also be running workshops in Lyon, France, in January.

Christmas and New Year should only mean one thing …. Time off with your loved one!

Since we first started importing it directly from Davryan 15 years ago, it has been consistently a very popular product that is often requested by name.  We have grown into being the EEC’s largest importer of Probe, so it’s a natural step to offer it up to a wider wholesale market.

Notes to Editors:

Sh! Women’s Erotic Emporium was the very first shop of its kind to open for women, by women in 1992. The mission was simple: to create a safe, welcoming environment in which women can shop guilt-free for good quality playthings.

Everyone is offered a cup of tea when they come in and the knowledgeable and friendly Sh! Girlz aim to make information about sex accessible to all, old or young of whatever sexual persuasion, background or culture. They do welcome men, but only if escorted by a woman.

Sh! were the first to launch the ‘Jessica Rabbit’ well before it debuted in ‘Sex and The City’, and the founder, Kathryn Hoyle has been a regular spokesperson promoting the ethos behind the store and the brand and has even been to 10 Downing Street to attend an Aids Awareness Event.

Sh! set up its very own research and development department and works with many NHS trusts offering advice and help on women’s health care, particularly at post-surgery dilation stage.

Sh! host plenty of different nights and events at their London store ranging from workshops, art and photography exhibitions, literary readings and much more.
