Environmental sex toy? Sounds like a punk band.

This or THAT?

In our time we have learned to take a “new age” outlook on the environment. Not just cutting back on hairspray and making sure the car doesn’t smoke but everywhere you turn now a days every kind of store has been putting out their own version of reusable bags. From the H-E-B down the street to the Toys-R-Us in the Forum parkway. Going “green” has been turned into a whole new culture.
Everything from washing machines to light bulbs have taken the high road to a better future and now the wonderful world of adult sex toys has gone that route.
I give you the Earth Angel (http://www.theearthangel.ie/index.html) made of hundred percent recyclable material in product and packaging. No batteries, no problem batteries contain harmful metals like mercury, cadmium and lead another killing factor in the environment.
The same technology that the Earth Angel uses has been around since the old times. Where the handheld radios used for camping and emergency kits are wind up with a hand crank that stores a certain amount of energy for an hour or two at a time.
With just one easy payment of 69.99 in euros(not sure how much in American) it can be your. Now lets compare this product to a much popular American made adult novelty toy.
The Rabbit or the many generic versions of it is today’s best online selling sex toy.
Its so popular it has its own wikipedia page and has been mentioned on shows like Sex and the city and on HBO’s real sex.
So let us compare shall we? The Rabbit vibrates and rotates with a clitoris stimulator attached to the shaft which looks like a pair of rabbit ears(hence The Rabbit). It comes in many different colors, along with a A/C power adapter to plug in(solves the battery issue kind of). As well as a built in remote that gives you a choice between two shaft rotation speeds and two patterns of clitoral stimulation, or allow both functions at the same time.
Some even light up but why would anybody need a light unless smoking after sex?
The Earth Angel only vibrates and doesn’t come with any bells or whistles with the look of a piece of white PVC piping.
With this battle of sex toys the Earth Angel has one upper hand. The Rabbit is made in many different kind of materials such as silicone (semi-organic polymer), rubber (elastic hydrocarbon polymer) or latex (natural rubber) along with vinyl, plastic, and metal. In a sense not good for the environment.
But when I ask people about this topic the many replies I get are “To hell with the environment I just want to get off.” I guess it’s the dual stimulators? In the long run The Rabbit beats the Earth Angel in everything but being earth friendly. Well at least the hippies will be very happy.
I now know what I’m getting next time I go out “adult” shopping at the Megaplex.

Change is good.

Photobucket

The first day of September is wonderful. The summer nights cool down allowing people to open their windows and breath the beautiful air. In my case sitting outside my house smoking a
cigarette with my bare feet perched on the window seal.
It also marks the end for triple digit summer heat waves. Living in an area close to the border the change of weather is a nice outlook on ones single life. But the change I'm talking about is not about the weather ,sex,love or relationships but what happens after.
Since the feminist movement in the 1960s women have been changing their looks after liberating themselves from men. Not just burning their bras but chopping off their long locks as well. Weather it be freedom in any sense women do more then just hack off their hair to get back at their mate. Usually after a hard hitting sad ending to a relationship a form of depression sets in where you can't sleep or eat resulting in losing a certain amount of weight.
Some have resulted to changing style of clothing or hair color to lift a burden off their shoulders.
In the long run a new image can be a great thing but be careful to not forget the inner you and the image you love as yourself.
