Dear Redhead’s Sex Toy Poll

by Erika Napoletano

Ask The RedheadAwhile back, I asked my lovely little pet monkey followers to take part in an online poll about sex toys. You all rose to the occasion in fine form and some of you even responded to the actual poll questions.

127 of you, in fact.

Collectively, I love how twisted you are. You did, however, catch The Redhead a bit off guard. Honor students…ex-execs…meat eaters. Wow.

Here’s how the twisted stats shake out in the wash:

Sex Toys…

73%of you own them (designated in the survey as vibrators, BDSM accessories, cock rings, swings, gimps in your closet, etc.)

27% of you need to get your shit together and get some

Of those of you who own sex toys…

27% own Vibrators (battery operated or powered)
18% own Dildos
14% own Handcuffs/Restraints
11% own Other awesome shit
10% own Cock Ring
8% own General BDSM accessories (masks, gags, whips, etc – does not include restraints)
8% own Anal beads or ben-wa balls
3% own Sex Pillows (love wedges, etc)
1% own Suspension Equipment (swings, etc)

And if you’re wondering, “other awesome shit” includes…

“Little spiky rubber rings to put around his cock”

“I love nipple clamps, although it’s taken several iterations to find a set that does what I want.”

“My husband, who is better at taking The Anal than I am (I am actually oddly jealous), loves my strap-on.”

“Ties. Since I do not wear them to work anymore had to find something to do with these silk babies.”

“My honor cords from high school graduation”(fucking A – HONOR ROLL!)

“I was tired of my Anal Trainer Non-Vibrating Dildo and I wanted (craved, is a better word description) a bigger model. Since the nearest ToyBoxStore was 50 miles away I spied a nice Ekrich Sausage as a substitute.” (Apparently it’s not just for breakfast anymore…)

“Other couples. A third. Or being the third. Cameras.” (There goes the neighborhood)

“Some little vibrating octopus thing.” (like this?)

“Produce. Cucs, zucchini, eggplant, etc.” (When you don’t have produce, do you get green balls instead of blue ones?)

Dildo convert here. Live on the edge, dare to be different, try something new. I have always loved and lusted for my copious collection of vibes, but since trying the njoy Pure Wand http://toywithme.com/dildos/njoy-fun-wand/ I have come to realize the importance of variety ;)

So my little perves it’s time you added a little variety yourselves. When was the last time you bought a new toy? And what was it?

OMG, I am like the world’s oldest virgin slut, but I am completely in love with my vibrators. I bought my latest toy about 4 months ago. It’s shapped like a mouth with a bullet in the middle that poses as a tongue. It also has a pump that causes suction. It’s like my box is getting munched on while I’m waiting to unleash my nasty self on the unsuspecting world! ;)

Crissy – I’m lining up for that one now. Such a sucker for information.

LizzyB – 4 months ago? Girl you deserve a new one at least every 2 months. All princesses do :)

Excellent. My husband forget his lunch when he went to work today. I told him he could buy lunch orrrrrrr if he was super tough and just went w/o, I’d either give him head or a backrub when he got home. IMMEDIATE text back: “I’ll take BJ!!!!!”
…. I wonder what I’d have to do to get him to put away his socks…

You guys crack me up. Trading a sack lunch for a BJ…speculum…

I need a new toy. Papa’s got a brand new bag and mama needs a new BOB (battery-operated-boyfriend).

W00t! Keep ‘em coming, folks!

By the way? Vibrating octopus? I knew exactly what it was, sadly enough. I should get out more.

@ThatToyChick – I wonder if they have a squid and a clown fish. I could build my own sexy aquarium thing :)
