So, in answer to my own challenge (and yes, I realize that's inane), and because we can't have too many sex threads, I call your attention to this page from my favorite sex blogger, Ms. Violet Blue:
http://www.tinynibbles.com/unsafe.html
I think it is an excellent and informative page, because it talks about the difference between real sex toys and novelty sex toys, how many novelty items are made from unsafe materials with unsafe designs, and good pussy health. (There are also wonderful pages elsewhere on her page, e.g. how to surf porn safely).
Question for discussion: Are toys worth it, or just a waste of money? (Besides a basic vibrator for women--that's SO worth it!
)
