All the chatter about body- and eco-friendly friendly toys has made it almost possible to forget that we’re living in the tech age. Almost. JimmyJane, creator of couture classics like the Littles Gold, Steel, and Chroma, has produced a luxury vibe that meets health and environmental criteria… and packs enough tech-savvy to make the most die-hard geeks champ at the bit.

Oh, yes, the Form 6 is both body- and eco-friendly. Seamlessly crafted of plum-hued silicone and stainless steel, this non-porous and phthalate-free vibe will not trap any fluids or bacteria, making worries about safety and cleaning drift away; and because it utilizes a cordless recharging Lithium-Ion battery, you merely have to juice it up in its charging base and the oompf will last for 2 solid hours. Plus, you’re saving approximately 100 batteries from hitting landfills per year.

As for the geekery, the Form 6 has got you covered. I’ll admit to being something of a quite the Battlestar Galactica fan… and when I think of that sultry Number Six Cylon getting it on with herself on the Base Star, I picture her using this techie’s dream. If you never thought you’d say “oscillation” and “square wave” when referring to something other than your analogue synth, you can think again: with a 7″ long chassis housing two separate motors, each end is programmable with six vibration modes, six speeds, and five levels of intensity. Controlling these overlapping features may seem daunting, but an 8-page manual (large text, lush with graphics) will guide you through programming pulse patterns and vibration intensity for both the small and large ends. To add even more icing to this high tech cake, the Form 6 can be locked (thus avoiding embarrassing airport incidents), is splash-proof (allowing for rollicking wet shower fun), and when you turn it back on, it will remember the last programme you’d set it to (yes, it is just that smart).

OK, your inner geek has been satiated, you know it’s great for your body, and you feel wonderful about all the battery saving that you’re doing. Now it’s time for the real meat of the issue: how does it perform down South? The Form 6 is versatile in both speed and strength. At its lowest setting, you are treated to a lush purr; but when it gets going, you’re in for some of the strongest vibrations available from a rechargeable vibe. At its widest, we’ve a 1.75” measurement—but penetration can occur on both ends. Try its smaller, smartly curved node for excellent firm g-spot stimulation; or rest the entire vibe against the length of your vulva for full clitoral-to-vaginal opening bliss. And because the Form 6 is so ample in length, your partner can grasp on to administer your pleasure or you can place it between two bodies for dual bliss.

Do you need further convincing? Fleshbot’s Lux Nightmare reports:

With its two curved ends and wide grip, the Form 6 looks more like a lady razor than a sex toy. But no lady razor I’ve ever come in contact with has gotten me off this good. The body of the Form 6 conformed nicely to my curves, one end resting on my clit as the other arched to reach my labia, guaranteeing maximum stimulation—aided especially by the fact that the two ends of the vibrator are independently controlled. Yes, it’s that high tech.

Tech appeal, body- and eco-friendly, Fleshbot kudos, and one *cough* very naughty Cylon fantasy? Sounds like the perfect recipe for an All Star toy to me.

I’ll be the first to admit that I live in a fairly sheltered world. Life in New York City at a sex toy store leaves me with a not-average kind of knowledge. Occasionally I’m reminded of this and my gut response is to educate, educate, educate. This particular post is a reaction to some comments I overheard a little while ago about strap-ons. Since many people out there have never even seen a strap-on, let alone used one, a post seemed like a good idea. Please feel free to add your own observations about strap-ons in the comments.

What are strap-ons? Strap-ons, or harnesses, or dildo harnesses are just what that last name implies. They are constructions of leather (or vinyl or nylon) that hold a dildo close to your body so that it sits at about the same place as a penis. Strap-ons have a basic shape that you take on and off like underwear but there are variations in color, texture/material, shape and style.

Why do people use strap-ons? People use strap-ons when they want to penetrate someone else or when they want to watch someone lick and suck on their dildo or if they really just like having a dildo between their legs. Harnesses aren’t just about penetration but that’s the way most people think of them.

Who uses strap-ons? Harnesses are generally thought of as something that lesbians use. However, harnesses can be used by anyone and for a lot of different kinds of activities. From double penetration to anal sex to intercourse to blow jobs, strap-ons can be a fun edition to any sex life.
Is using a strap-on fun? Sometimes it seems like the person wearing the strap-on is doing all of the work and getting none of the pleasure. However, using a strap-on can be both fun and pleasurable. For instance, just wearing a harness can be very erotic, whether it’s because you’re in a new or different role in your sex life or because you’re wearing something that your partner is going to get a lot of pleasure from. There are also lots of ways that a harness can stimulate the person who is wearing it – the pressure from the base of the dildo, vibrators or Magic Carpets are all ways of stimulating the wearer or the harness.Where can I watch some really hot strap-on action? There are several porns that have great strap-on scenes in them. I highly recommend Crash Pad, The Bi Apple, Belladonna’s Fucking Girls and Bend Over Boyfriend.

I want to try a strap-on, what should I do? You can buy the Ultimate Guide to Strap-On Sex. And you can come into Babeland to find the perfect harness for you. Then, take it home and take it for a test run by yourself. Dance, laugh and wiggle in your harness until you feel comfortable in it. Then wear it in front of your partner and go to town!
