The Liberator and Mr Bendy get their 15 minutes of fame

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

rampWith a little help from Babeland, you can now have sex with one of the stars of the new Coen Brothers movie, “Burn After Reading”!

Do I mean Brad Pitt?  Well, no.

George Clooney?  You’re getting warmer.

It’s the Liberator Ramp, and it just gave the most memorable performance by an incline since the one Fonzie used to jump a great white shark. The tabloids were buzzing last year when the paparrazi caught George Clooney with a Liberator Ramp in tow.  Will it make the final cut? We can’t say till the movie is out, but we thought you’d want to learn how you can create a stir by adding this purple polygon to your arsenal.

The Liberator Ramp

So, what is it?  The Liberator Ramp is a cushion designed to provide comfort and stability during rear-entry sex.  The lucky recipient simply rests face down at a declining angle on the Ramp.  Her hips are supported by the Liberator Ramp’s padded core and are elevated off the bed.  This takes the load off her arms and wrists and allows her to relax and enjoy being taken from behind.  Meanwhile, her pelvis is at a comfortable height for you too, taking the strain off your hips, knees, and back while you roger her roundly.  Also, this new altitude for her ass provides you with an easy, comfortable backstage pass for rimming or other anal play.  The Ramp has garnered rave reviews from our customers who praise it for its comfort, its functionality, and even its aesthetic.  “(My girlfriend) loves seeing my ass up that high,” says one satisfied customer.  And who wouldn’t?

The Liberator Wedge

You might also consider trying the Liberator Wedge.  It’s a smaller version of the Ramp, aimed to slide under your butt as lay on your back.  The Wedge tilts your pelvis upward, giving your partner better access to your G-spot or P-spot (prostate gland).  The added height makes giving you cunnilingus easier on your partner (Babeland’s toy tester particularly loved this aspect of it).  Also, you can use it for rear-entry positions like you would the Ramp if you prefer the hips at a lower angle.  It also makes anal play easier if you prefer to be face-to-face with your leading lady.

And the best part about the Liberator furniture is that you don’t have to cover them with plastic or smother them with Scotchgard.  These cushions are made to get messy!  Simply unzip and remove the outer cover and toss it in the wash.  Plus, the padded core is protected by a nylon cover, so you can get as wet and sloppy as you want without worry.  Let the wild after-parties begin!

Both the Liberator Ramp and Wedge come with a discreet nylon carrying bag, ideal for storage or travel to, say, Cannes.  They’re both so lightweight and portable that you’ll want to take them with you everywhere you go, just in case you bump into your next co-star.  Now you can turn your bed, your stretch limo, even the floor of your trailer into a sexual playground.  And once your partner experiences your masterful performance, she’ll be sure to add your star to her Walk of Fame!

Buy the Liberator Ramp $150
Buy the Liberator Wedge $85

Mr. Bendy also got in on the action! Did you see the film and notice the sex toys?

NaughtiNano Review

Monday, September 15th, 2008

naughtynanoOne of the best things about working at Babeland is that we get to review new toys. That’s right - every toy we carry has been tested and approved by at least one sex educator. That’s why we don’t carry all 18,000 toys out there. We just carry the good ones.

That doesn’t mean that bad toys don’t cross our path. I’ve tested my fair share and they sit at the bottom of my sex toy drawer, waiting for the day when the US implements a vibrator recycling program.

Most of the time, however, I get to test something fun. A few months ago I got to test the Boss and it certainly took me for a ride. The last toy I tested was the NaughtiNano, the same folks who make the OhMiBod.

I’ll admit that I didn’t really see the appeal of the OhMiBod. I’d been a bad sex educator and hadn’t actually tried it, let alone plugged it into an iPod. The long, white plastic just didn’t appeal to me. When I opened the NaughtiNano, however, I was instantly attracted to the curvy blueness and soft plastic texture. Here was a toy that knew how to party.

The NaughtiNano (and OhMiBod) work like this: Take the plugs and put one end in your iPod (or other music-playing device) and put the other in the vibrator. You can also plug in earphones if you like. Now, kick out the jams. The NaughtiNano vibrates to the beat of the music. Want stronger vibrations? Just turn up the volume (here’s where I had to take my earphones off).

You can have all sorts of ironic fun with this toy. What does Salt N Pepa’s ‘Let’s Talk About Sex’ feel like? Pretty good actually - it has a good beat. What about ‘Let’s Get It On’? More of a slow rumble but a nice buildup. Prince? Not too bad. I ended up with electronica and metal - not really something I wanted to listen to but the beat was amazing - and just what I needed. The curves grabbed my G-spot, the vibrations struck my clit, and life was good.

If nothing else, the NaughtiNano is a lot of fun. I promise you’ll never look at your music collection the same way again.

Bloggers Love Babeland: Rachel Kramer Bussel

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

Rachel Kramer Bussel of Lusty Lady loves Babeland. And we love her right back! See what she had to say below. Want to participate? Leave a comment and I’ll get in touch with you!

RachelkramerbusselI didn’t buy my first vibrator from Babeland, because I don’t think it
had opened in New York at that time, but I have bought my favorite and
most beloved ones there. I distinctly remember when the Babeland on
Rivington Street opened. I was just starting to explore my and New
York’s sexuality, going to play parties, coming out as bisexual,
discovering that I liked things like spanking. I would go to Babeland
and look hungrily at all the shiny, pretty, sometimes intimidating and
exciting objects all around. Little did I know I would go on to do
readings and an erotic love letter workshop there.

The vibrator that really changed my life was a little pink clitoral
one, it may have been called the Honeybear, but I’m not sure. That
vibrator helped show me how to have an orgasm and what my clit was for
(yes, I was in my early twenties, in law school - I was a late
bloomer). I remember how excited I was, just to own it; to walk out of
the shop and have this special treasure tucked into my bag. And then I
got home and used it and wow! I went on to wear that one out, before
replacing it and then upgrading to the vibrator that is still my
mainstay, the Hitachi Magic Wand, which I now can’t imagine ever
living without.

But what sticks out for me from those early days of Babeland shopping
to walking into the store today is the friendliness of the staff and
the environment. You know the people working there actually care about
sex and making it better, for everyone who walks in their door,
whether that’s with a bottle of lube, a harness, nipple clamps, or a
vibrator (or two). Babeland is the kind of place anyone can walk in
and banish all those shameful, scary feelings about sex I think even
the most enlightened among us sometimes walk around with. It’s a store
I’ve taken many friends to buy their first (or second, third, etc.)
vibrators, and where I go when I want to find new toys or just browse
and get ideas for erotica stories.

I can’t imagine what New York would be like without Babeland as a
resource. I remember trying to buy porn at one of those shops on 6th
Avenue near West 4th Street, and being the only woman there, being
nervous and feeling out of place. That doesn’t happen at Babeland.
Their bright, cheerful, colorful atmosphere comes armed with a staff
who can actually tell you about which vibrator would work best for
your specific needs, taking into consideration numerous factors. The
toys I’ve bought from Babeland, from paddles to vibrators to butt
plugs, rope, a gorgeous purple flogger, and more, are ones I treasure
and have put to good use.

Congratulations on your first 15 successful years; I can’t wait to see
what Babeland cooks up in the next 15.
