For some, the best way to learn is to do. But what about sex education? Well, the Amora Sex Academy in Berlin has that under control. Tactile learners rejoice! The exhibition, which opened last week, features more than 50 interactive displays that let visitors learn about the intimate details of both male and female bodies. There is even a mannequin that lights up and moans when you hit it’s G-spot, showing you exactly where to touch in the mean time.
“A lot of couples come in here together to learn something,” said Uta Barkow, the manager of the Beate Uhse sex chain which is hosting the academy. “It’s been very well received so far. A lot of exhibits have that ‘aha’ effect on a lot of people.”
Man, oh man, gotta love that hands-on approach. I know I do!
(ps. The title to this post is a nod to Philly’s Please Touch Museum… a place I am not going to link to because it’s awkward to link from a porn site.)
I love Etsy. Where else in the world would you be able to buy a giant hand silkscreened condom pillow? Especially one that not only has a pocket to store condoms but also comes with a giant fabric condom! I am smitten and I want one!
It would go perfect with the giant fabric butt I made for my workshop! I think I need this as a “sex education tool.” I mean really, how can I teach about safe sex without it?!?
Happy Humpday! Welcome back to the mid-week stretch. This week is a short one for most of us, with July 4th coming up on Saturday. I love me a holiday that only requires eating BBQ and laying on the grass to watch pretty light bursts in the sky. Oh, and Sheryl Crow, if you’re in Philly. Having Friday off just sweetens the deal. Sadly though, not everyone has a three day weekend. For all you unfortunate folks, this link love is dedicated to you. I hope it gets you through til the fireworks!
Let’s get to it!
- Vice Mag’s Conor Creighton takes us along on his tour of sex toy maker Fun Factory’s, well, fun factory in North Germany. Check out the super neat picture (including the one above, the cool quotes and a insider look at the birthplace of some of the best toys out there! (via LizLangely, via WorldSexNews)
Sign Language is one of the most interesting and definitely coolest (in my opnion) languages out there. While I might not be able to understand every gesture out there, I’m pretty sure I can guestimate what this animated interpreter is offering up.
Why bother with subtleties, really?
Whle we don’t see a lot of deaf/hearing impaired porn in the biz, there is one studio that uses their hands for more than just flicking clits. Deaf Bunny is the first adult company that uses deaf actors and American Sign Language in their movies. Pretty cool, huh? They also offer closed-captioning on a select few hearing pornos, as well as sign languge sex ed and safe sex training. Swooon.
French (which this video is in), on the other hand, just doesn’t do it for me.
