Hey everyone,

For the second time in a month, I've been asked about "used" toy photographs. Since these things usually happen in waves, I thought it might be a good idea to just kind of put this out there:

****Please wash your gear before you photograph it for use on EF.****

Those things do have a place and that place is your personal blog.

There's just no need to be so graphic. We're all adults, we understand what happens when a person orgasms.

(Boy, this was an awkward post to write. )

Oh dear! Haha glad I haven't come across any "dirty" photos yet. I promise that my toys will always be cleaned before their photo shoot!

I shudder to think. I make sure all my pics are taken as they are unpacked just to make sure they are shown in original condition.

I know this is not intended to be funny but I had to chuckle. I wouldn't imagine the need to spell this out as a request, but thank you for doing so since apparently there was a need.

I laughed the entire time I was writing this and just kept saying "really?" over and over. I trounce on the concept of boundaries on a daily basis but I see no reason to post something like that outside of a legit porn site. I also had to laugh because that "evidence" is not an indicator of how well a toy works; it is however evidence of where a woman is in her reproductive cycle

Someone asked me my views on this the other day and I wasn't offended by the photo that the were asking about. However, I did mention I have never seen a rule about posting such photos but haven't really seen any on Eden though. Most of the toys I have seen with bodily fluids on them were on blog posts. I personally photograph all items BEFORE they are used not after. Some people just don't know when or where to post I guess. Even on my blog all my toys are posted when they are right out of the box or throughly cleaned.

My pictures are out of the box as well. I'm surprised someone would post a photo of the toy directly after it's been used. I have to agree with a lot of other responses... it's ewwy.

Lint's okay, right?

In all seriousness that's super gross. I don't even like to see my own toys after I've 'used' them, I sure don't want to see someone elses!

Just glad they were removed and are not still out there for unsuspecting people to find. This is an adult site--not a fetish or niche site. Thanks Stormy!!!

This is a great site for people with a sex toy fetish.

to each their own, but i agree it's not appropriate on here. I've seen panties with such on fetish sites, but I've never run across toys. I wonder what the mindset was in posting that pic because it does bring that to mind, which is also not something I'd want to see on here because I feel that selling items with bodily fluid are a health hazard, not to mention handing your DNA over to strangers, and it is illegal in some areas. Though I heard of vending machines in Japan with used panties, but I think they've since outlawed it.

Eek. I would have been under the impression that this didn't have to be stated. Thank you for posting though in case anyone didn't know!
