We know we probably shouldn't knock something until we've tried it. But then again, we don't have to actually eat Spam to know it's gross. Now, we're not saying the new K-Y product, "Yours + Mine", is gross--it could be mind-blowing-ly orgasmic for all we know. But the press release didn't exactly curl our toes: Enter K-Y® Brand YOURS+ MINE™, the first "HIS + HER" intimacy product for couples. This product is truly unique--two thrilling sensations that lead to conversation both in AND out of the bedroom. Encased in two sleek test tubes, the lubricants are labeled "yours" and "mine," and give a different sensation for each partner. "Yours" is thrilling for her, "mine" is exciting for him, and together they add up to a totally new experience. K-Y® Brand YOURS+ MINE™ can help couples achieve greater intimacy through better communication and a mutually exciting experience.Ugh. But before we poo poo the puddin' without tasting it first, we thought we'd see if Lindsay from K-Y's PR company could clear up some questions: Em & Lo: What's the difference between the two lubes, i.e. what makes one specially formulated for her and one for him, and do they feel different or do they just have different scents? We smell pure marketing gimmick... 
 Urban Outfitters describes this beaver whisk as "surprisingly versatile" with an "ergonomically formed high-density plastic handle with non-slip grip." Which is a euphemism for "spanking tool" if we ever heard one. Come on, it's shaped like a beaver! And it's only $6.99--what's not to love? Keep it in with your spatulas and garlic press and your nosy mother-in-law will be none the wiser when she visits. But do us a favor and stick to fleshy areas when spanking your loved one. (And if your loved one doesn't have any fleshy areas, then make them a freakin' sandwich instead.)
 Just as all the pretty flowers are sprouting in gardens near and far, one of our favorite toy makers, Lelo, has just come out with a new color option for their amazing Iris vibe: "flushed deep rose." As far as we're concerned, Lelo is the Apple of vibrators, with beautiful toys that combine form and function really nicely. And we think this new pink Isis, with it's petals that vibrate in five -- count 'em, five -- preprogrammed stimulation modes, is better than a bunch of roses any day...
 We met Wendy Strgar (pictured above with her husband) at a Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality convention a few years ago. She had a booth for her Good Clean Love brand of oils and lubes. They smelled great. But what really got our attention was Wendy herself: charming, goofy and completely earnest about "making love sustainable" (a tag line of hers). Within five minutes, she had us believing in what Huey Lewis would call the power of love. Check out her newsletters, her blog, and even her recent article on RealitySandwich.com (which has gotten a lot of feedback) and see if you don't feel the love, too. Em & Lo: What's your philosophy? Wendy Strgar: I believe in love. I believe it has the power to transform our lives and by so doing, change the world. Love is an action verb, and hard work at that, but taking the time and courage to learn how to love better and more is the reason we are alive. Good Clean Love is dedicated to Making Love Sustainable because our relationships and families are the most essential natural resource we have to living a healthy and satisfying life. Love filled sexuality is a mystery of epic proportions. It is the only act at our disposal that so completely connects us, that it transforms us and gives us the courage and tenacity to keep the rest of our relationship moving forward. When did you launch Good Clean Love and why? This is a family business, which was created in 2003 to meet the personal intimacy needs in my own marriage of 24 years. Our products saved my marriage by eliminating the pain that occurred with intimacy and helping me to realize that it was through physically loving my husband that we discovered again the power of love to heal and unite us as a couple. All of our products were developed with this goal in mind, creating healthy and natural ingredient-based products that make love accessible in relationships. Do you think there are some people who simply can't commit to monogamy for life? Some are predisposed to it, and others are better off as serial monogamists?
 A round-up of sex accessories--the good, the bad, and the creepy:
Three expert heads are better than one aimlessly wandering through a sex shop not knowing which vibrator to choose. Em & Lo have teamed up with Claire at Babeland to break down all the info you need to make this very fun decision.
 I like pirates. I like that they are dirty, and fierce and vicious, strong and brave and free and they have got cool hats and also drink rum. The first tattoo I ever got was a pirate flag on the back of my neck; eventually, when I have got the money (and buff arms, if I am going to be honest), I am going to have a pirate sleeve, and when I grow up, oh, I should like to ride the seas, a roaring buccaneer, a cutlass banging at my knees, a dirk behind my ear. I also like porn. Watching people have sex turns me on, and learning to not care that these women are impossible-looking and that I will never look like them and that is okay was one of the greatest triumphs of my adult life. It is not necessarily their bodies that makes sex in these movies sexy, it is the act of it, the moving and the sounds and the fact of sex. I like the fact of sex. So, I look at porn on the Internet, I rent it occasionally, I own a few (one is about a lesbian vampire! It's so nice), I've gotten some for Christmas. I like my porn dirty, though with as little spitting as possible (why, oh why with the spitting?). I generally prefer as few fake breasts and as minimal a story as possible. I want nasty naked doing it, please, and keep your mouth shut and your blank, empty soulless eyes averted from the camera when you're sticking it in, thanks! Because you're distracting me, here.

 You may remember that when we heard about about Dick Hats--edible chocolate caps for the penises in your life--we just weren't convinced it was a legitimate business. So we struck up an amicable exchange with the proprietor, "D. Sanchez" (charming), and he agreed to send us some free samples. (Read our original post for all the deets.) A few weeks passed and we started to wonder if we weren't right after all, that this was just some weird internet practical joke. And then a few days ago a package arrived. It was a square shipping box about the size of a head (ever seen Seven?). We opened it with some trepidation, but were pleased to find inside two "chocolate party hats" (both pictured above) and a cold pack...
 Image via Agent Provocateur Nipple moisturizer? What more can I say? Interesting heritage actually: the first cosmetic nip enhancer I can think of is Benefit Benetint, which was apparently originally intended for strippers to tint their ta-tas a deeper shade of wine (that rumor is totally true, by the way). Trusty ol' Agent Provs has developed the idea to take it one step further, and they've got it covered with Titillation, a two-fer (heh) that contains Lip Plumper and the Nipple Refresher. I'd say this Product Fiend's nipples are feeling perfectly refreshed today, thank you very much, but hey, this makes a great gift for that, uh, beloved stripper in your life!
