    Okay. Are they any good? Any reason to buy these instead of amazonian generics? What do they look like? I don’t give two shits about the celebrity name I’ve never heard of before, you wanna advertise at me, tell me about the product.

    The only time I’ve been irked enough to make an account to comment directly on the article.

    Save you a click: Starting the article with, “Looking for a kinky Christmas gift for your terminally online gay friend this year?” And then quoting Allen with,
    “For me, toys can help you to better understand your body and learn what you like,” feels tone deaf and pretty disrespectful. You don’t have to be gay to like anal play, and to start the article with that statement is more likely to make those that are not gay, or maybe even questioning their sexuality feel shame. You could have simply left out “gay” from your sentence altogether and it would have been fine and still a reasonable statement to make, but by having “gay” as part of that sentence implies that if you’re not gay, sexual exploration is not for you- or even that if you do like anal play you must be gay. Please consider your word choices more carefully in the future.

      I really don’t see a problem unless you equate being gay with being bad or undesirable in some way. Who’s reading an article about butt plugs and only feels shame in their interest when gay people are brought up?

      Why are you surprised. According to lemmy, if you wash your asshole in the shower then you’re gay.

        No you’re thinking of “alpha bros” on tik tok or Twitter. They legit believe wiping your ass after you shit is gay since you are technically touching a man’s ass. No they won’t use a bidet either.

        I think you’re mistaking 4chan or some right-wing only social media site for Lemmy.
        It makes no sense how you could have that experience here, a place that’s filled with lgbtq+ people.

        Damn! Not again! I did that this morning. Now I must come clean and do jazz hands at opportune moments.

    When Allen released the physical copies of West End Girl earlier this January, she also encoded the album on a limited-edition USB embedded in a polka dot-adorned butt plug (it’s “intended for data storage only”).

    You gotta admire the dedication to the kink here, its a bit cheeky too 😉 lol

    Midway through the album on the song “Pussy Palace,” she enters Harbour’s apartment to find a “Duane Reade bag with the handles tied / Sex toys, butt plugs, lube inside.”

    Okay

    Looking for a kinky Christmas gift for your terminally online gay friend this year?

    How is a buttplug kinky for a gay dude? Isn’t butt stuff quite normal for gay dudes? And how is it kinky at all? Even for hetero people I wouldn’t call that kinky.
