Personally, I've NEVER been to a toy party. BUT I've been to plenty of jewelry, Pampered Chef, candle, stationary parties to know what the reason that people are there for: Their friend BEGGED them to come (and buy stuff) so they'd have enough people to get their discounts, bla bla bla... and this would have (in my proposal it did) some of the same incentives for people attending... but host discounts would have NOTHING to do with how MUCH people spent at the party.

The affiliate, at the end of the night, would hand out a pamphlet that would have their store's website address and their affiliate code, so they would get their commission for their presentation BUT guests would not feel obligated to pick something out right away. I mean, NO ONE wants to be rushed into a sex toy... and what if the guest already has 24 dildos and 17 vibrators (and somehow MIRACULOUSLY not part of THIS community), but wanted to instead purchase a whip or other bondage gear, but doesn't want everyone in their office knowing how she likes to play?

I just really like the idea of education more so than sales being the prime objective... and this was confirmed to me as I was reading a blog yesterday and every toy they recommended for anal was made of jelly or rubber or even PVC! People DO NOT understand about materials...

Nor do they understand about proper anal preparation. Oral sex techniques. I had a friend confide in me that she and her husband of 7 years have never performed oral on each other and they never even THOUGHT to try it!

So now that I've made a text wall... I'll shut up, but that's my idea in a very small nutshell. less

The party idea has been around for a long time. It's a tricky endeavor. We don't really want to start a new business, or a pyramid scheme. So at the moment we have a number of ideas we are pitching around with BBW Talks Toys. Every party would be different, but I think that focusing more on education and community along with a possible affiliate tie-in, is a good foundation for planning. Anyone that has some ideas or would like to be a part of the brainstorming process for parties, just email me at gary@edenfantasys.com subject line 'eden parties' less

Yeah, I don't want to make money or anything, I just want to educate my friends and anyone else who will listen. They go to these parties and spend so much money on junk that is not safe and that won't last. I was one of them before I found EF. I spent $75 on a JELLY rabbit style vibe that broke after a few uses. I got horrible reoccurring bacterial infections and didn't know the importance of lube. I was so clueless! lol less

Well, I read a review the other day where someone was advocating using water or saliva to use a jelly/rubber anal toy. Then my best friend tells me her vibrator is made of some kind of "realistic" jelly composite material. Another friend's hubs has a Fleshlight that he doesn't powder (which I know is not necessary, but WOW does it preserve it better. Friends who are afraid of anal and oral sex (or don't know how to do it well).

And we were all new to this once, but how much more freeing would it be to go to a website like EF and actually know:

1) what you want
2) what to look for
3) what would be best less

To her defense, she's a total noob, and this (EF AND toys in general) is all new to her. I corrected her and offered her my help in the future (and probably recommended the mentor program). She expressed that she was new to all this. She bought a toy and just used what she'd thought was supposed to be used! I mean, I'm not expert in anal because I just bought my first plug and it ain't even here yet! But my husband likes p-spot stim and I know that if we don't use loads of lube... it's just plain not going in!

I also read a blog called, and I LOVE this blog, Christian Nymphos... because I'm a Christian (but not the "I'll condemn you to Hell" kind... hopefully that is obvious) and let me tell you.... Christian women have such shame about sex because of the "church's" sex-bad campaign. But anyway (bunny trail) they were instructing women on toys to use for anal stim, but were not giving any precautionary measures about material safety and sanitation. Not because they want anyone to get infections... they just don't always know!

Disclaimer: "Ain't" was for dramatic purposes.... I know how to speak proper English less

Hehehe her defense is that she's a noob. I love it.

And yeah, religious fundamentalists of any kind tend to breed shame. It's, well, a shame. From my experience, the Catholics are the worst shame-instilling people. (Not all of them, just the traditional/orthodox/f undamentalist kind.)

And don't worry about the word "ain't" because I'm southern and use it all the time! And it's officially a word now, anyways! less
