EdenFantasys: The History Of A Sex Shop - Chapter 1, The History Behind The Name

Contributor: NarcissisticLust NarcissisticLust
When I talk about this web site I usually say "Eden Fantasy." If the company changed their url many people I talk to might miss the link. The spelling isn't concerning, it was a business decision.

This is super interesting. I never really wondered about it, but I'm glad I know now!

I am really glad to hear the history, and I'm looking forward to more.

I totally hate the spelling, though, and when I refer friends I just say "this awesome website---I'll send you a link because you'll spell it wrong otherwise."

And I type the url so often that now when I'm typing about my fantasies I spell it with a "y"---my fingers' memory absorbs mistakes! I am actually really glad that I read that Fred has edenfantasies .com set up to redirect, because now I can type it right and not have to have my blood pressure spike every time I want to visit.

I really hate that I'm a grammar nazi, by the way, I'm trying to work on it, and I don't call other people out on their mistakes unless they ask me to. But boy, it runs deep.

For the record---I've got a grammatical rod up my ass, AND I went to public school. So they're definitely not incompatible!

It bugged me the first few times I came here because I actually typed it "fantasies"

I am so glad I found this, eagerly waiting for the next installments!

I'm actually really glad this got bumped. I had always wondered about that misspelling, and even wondered if it was an accident or was on purpose. But the reasons for doing it make perfect sense now that I read them. That was really fun, getting to know a little of the history of this place! Thanks!

It's always bothered me (but just a little) that I didn't know how to pronounce "Eden Fantasys" - is it, "Eden Fantasies" or "Eden Fanta-sis"? At least that's been clarified and I'll be able to sleep again

I have always read it as "Eden's Fantasy." I guess my mind just moves the S around to make it more correct.

The name still totally squicks me every time but I don't mind it. It's a great place, so who cares?

Interesting. I just figured it was a way of being quirky. I like it as is.
