When my friend Jen visited me last week, I decided to take her by Toys in Babeland. She once worked in a not so feminist sex toy shop out west and I wanted her to see how the feminists do it. As she was discussing the elusive G spot with the counter person, I wandered over and the woman, who I would later learn was Amber (the amazing human rights masters student featuring awesome tattoos) said, "Hey, aren't you Courtney from feministing?"

I've been recognized in a few places in my day, but I have to say that this one topped the list. You know you're doing something right when the woman who teaches perfect strangers where their g spots are sees you and smiles in recognition. Thanks Amber. Keep on keepin' on.

we've had reps from babeland come to my alma mater (how weird...i just graduated in may) for the past two years to talk about safe sex toy use and sex positive porn, etc. It's sponsored by the house I lived in, the feminist theme house on campus, and we've always had a great turnout!

yay babeland!!

courtney: thanks for your great writing, I am looking over your columns and perspective
...so, did Jen the latest on "the elusive g-spot" at babeland?"
Could you share the results?
Is the "doorbell pulse" have technical credenc
Are manual techniques equivalent to a "shaped toy/device"?
Just wondering, since you referenced it
