Flame Testing "Silicone" Toys: My video & explanation post

Contributor: Dangerous Lilly Dangerous Lilly
I've been working for awhile now on a post & video that talks about flame testing (the hows and whys) but it was moved to the forefront recently when I received two toys that claimed to be silicone and in fact are not. I know that there is a very popular thread on here asking if contributors flame test, and many didn't know about it or know how.

My post is really for the true sex toy geeks But also for any reviewer/consumer who wants to be more informed.

*applause* I love that you set things on fire FOR SCIENCE!

In all seriousness, though, this is a great post, and really informative. Companies shouldn't be promoting materials as pure silicone while they are really silicone blends.
