This month we are excited to share that we have been chosen to be a Cal Exotics Sexpert™!  What does this mean?  Well, it means that California Exotic Novelties (a female owned and operated Adult Toy & Novelty Manufacturer) has chosen us to be among a 100 men and women to review new Cal Exotics products monthly.   

Each month, we will have our testers “test drive”, so to speak, one of the new Cal Exotics products and we will share the review with you.  Each product will be rated using The Love Bird’s Feathers Rating Scale™:

1  = ”not so hot”  to

5  = “extremely hot”  

“The hotter the product is, the more feathers it will take to cool you off!” 

 

Our first product we received is called The White Stork™. It’s very fitting that they sent this to us, The Love Birds.  So, of course, we love the name.  On the package, it states, “Indulge in the ancient Asian secrets.  Legend has it that the Asian White Stork brings happiness and health.”  This is a waterproof vibrator with a clitoral stimulator shaped like a stork.  When we first saw this vibrator, we knew it would have some power.  It has 8 speeds of both shaft rotation and clitoral vibration, each has 3 functions.  This vibrator also has 3 rows of non-jamming pleasure beads and requires 3 ‘AA’ batteries.

So, what did our testers (a couple) say?  Overall, they like The White Stork™.  Our female tester reported she really liked the clitoral vibration from the fluttering stork.  She especially liked how the stork’s speed and pulsing can vary.  She liked the general sensation of the vibrator but felt neutrally about the rotating pleasure beads or the secret Inner-G Arouser (for the G-Spot).  Both the male and female testers liked the fact that the vibrator is waterproof and felt it could be used as part of their foreplay. 

Therefore, we give The White Stork™:   .   Trust us, you will need all 4 feathers to help cool you off!

When you have been with your partner for a while, it is very easy for things to become routine. After all, you are with this person every day, doing the same things. Get up, go to work, come home, sleep and do it all over again the next day. Over time, you begin to have a set way of doing things together, especially when it comes to sex.

Think back to the early times in your relationship. An important ingredient, back then, was novelty (newness). It was exciting to wonder what was going to happen next. It was all new! The good news is that you don’t have to get another partner to get that sexual novelty back. The newness can be created in your sex life. So, this month’s challenge is for you to break out of your sexual routine. Below are just a few areas you can change up to help you get started:

1. Try a new way to initiate sex. Instead of just asking your partner if they want to have sex, surprise him or her with a romantic scenario such as a bubble bath, wine, rose petals, candles, etc or a sensual dinner that you prepare and slowly feed to your partner. Or send your partner sexy notes or text messages throughout the day. How about trying fun nonverbal ways, such as long slow kissing sessions or sensual touching and caressing. These will certainly let your partner know you’re in the mood.
2. Try new lingerie. Wearing something new (or even nothing at all) can make you feel extremely sexy and can certainly create a new spark for your partner.
3. Try a new sex toy. These are not meant to be replacements for your partner. Think of them more like fun aids to add some newness to your sexual repertoire. There are so many to choose from (for men and women). We suggest you take a field trip together to your local adult store and have fun exploring the possibilities!
4. Try a new location. Instead of sticking to the bed, venture out to other parts of your home when your kids or roommates are asleep. There are many areas you can try out. (Location Warning: If you are thinking about venturing outside of your house or anywhere in a public place, be careful. Having sex in public is illegal.)
5. Try a new sex game. There are so many of these to choose from. There are sex dice, cards and even board games. One thing we like about these sex games is they remind you that sex is supposed to be fun.
6. Try a new position. Venture beyond the missionary position. There are many books and videos that show other positions you can try. Please don’t hurt yourself trying to get into these positions. Just get ready to laugh and focus on having fun!

Again, these are just a few areas you can change up to create some novelty in your sex life. There are lots of other ways not mentioned in this article such as exploring sexual fantasy play and role playing, etc. Remember, novelty can create more desire and passion. So, don’t be afraid to change things up!
