Without further adieu, let’s get into the Q&A!!!
Q: Tell the G-babes about yourself. How did you become the sex toy fairy godmother of our dreams?
A: I honestly attribute my career choice to my first orgasm and first vibrator back in college. I was so shocked no one told me what an orgasm was nor did I ever have one during any of my sexual shenanigans, so I made it my mission to learn as much as possible, have as many as possible, and help people achieve this pleasure.
I fell in love with the sex toy industry, - there's just endless amounts of pleasure possibilities. I continued to immerse myself in the industry where I networked, connected, and grew my brand. This is my passion. I feel so fulfilled doing this work and being the Fairy ClitMother is one of my favorite titles!
Q: Why should someone get a sex toy, particularly a vibrator?
A: Despite the stigma and controversy surrounding vibrators, they have proven significant benefits to individuals’ sexual health and intimate relationships.
Just like with many things in life, we add to and find ways to make the experience better [i.e surround sound, huge TV's, planes] sex and pleasure are no different. Sex toys, especially vibrators, can provide that consistent stimulation needed for many, to have orgasms. Vibrators are multipurpose and can be used all over the body. They are gender neutral so anyone can use them. Vibes are such a great addition to solo or partnered play, they can help achieve different types of orgasm intensity levels and open new realms of pleasure.
Q: If you've never tried a sex toy before, where should you start?
A: There's a gazillion products out there so I know it can be overwhelming. Make sure to buy products from reputable companies and make sure they are always bodysafe. I recommend starting small and simple because there's less intimidating factors and they can be multipurpose. Take a trip to your local sex toy store and have a look around. Actually being able to see and feel the products helps immensely with overall satisfaction.
Try them out by yourself, play around, and really get to know your body. When you learn how your body enjoys pleasure it is easier to tell your partner and choose future sex toys.
Start where you are comfortable and remember lube is your best friend.
Q: Are sex toys only for women and AFAB folx, or can anyone use them?
A: Sexual health and wellness is essential for all which make sex toys essential for all. Sex toys are for EVERY BODY. Sex toys don't have a gender attached to them, nor should they ever. Pleasure doesn't care what gender you are.
Q: What are you MUST-HAVES when it comes to sex toy features?
A: I love where the sex toy industry has gone with all the new upgrades and features available. My products have to be rechargeable, I can't remember the last time I had a battery operated vibrator. They also have to be splash proof or waterproof, because things can get quite wet and wild. A newer feature that I really enjoy is the Bluetooth capability that wearable products come with, they are a favorite for my date nights.
Q: Are there any brands you particularly like?
A: Any brand that cares about the quality their products. Making sure that products are made of body-safe materials is crucial. I also really support brands that are progressive and inclusive.
A few of my favorite brands are Fun Factory, Blush, Satisfyer, and OhNut. All these brands make quality products and care about their customers.
This week’s mantras:
I deserve pleasure tools.
I am in control of my own pleasure.
I am responsible for my own orgasm.
I will love myself.
I love you. Have a great week!
XOXO Auntie Gigi

Catch me talking about and dispelling the myth of “porn addiction” on the Shameless Sex podcast. LISTEN NOW!
BDSM is exceptionally versatile; while the roles you can play are endless, the sub (almost) always submits to the Dom. Well, at least in theory. The role of the "brat" turns this power exchange on its head. A brat is a disobedient sub. They're naughty, not going to listen, and ready to push your buttons. So, why are people into being brats during BDSM play? I explored this AT LEGNTH this week. Read more. - MEN’S HEALTH
For a long time, we didn’t know whether squirting was the same as peeing, where squirting come from, or how it worked, but a 2023 study published in the Journal of Sex Research has helped to clear up some of the mysteries. According to the research by Dr. Devon Hensel and associates, there are actually 2 types of squirting: there's female ejaculation; and then there's a more gushing kind of squirting from the bladder.
