The Best Buy for Your Booty
Welcome to Anal August, that special time of he year when we celebrate the booty and all its potential for pleasure. Anal play is more popular than you might think — take it from us! Butt plugs are consistently one of our bestselling product families, and we have customers of all genders, anatomies, ages, shapes, sizes, abilities, and relationship structures who are interested in exploring the wide world of butt stuff. After all, every body has a booty!
Of course, no one needs to participate in anal. Some have had poor past experience, and others simply aren’t interested — and that’s ok! But if you’re only hesitating to explore butt stuff because of social stigmas or nerves, we want to give you the tools you need to make sure that nothing holds you back from appreciating all the pleasure your booty can bring.

Despite what some might believe, sex toys can help affirm and even realign our pleasures based not just on what our bodies physically look like, but also based on the fluidity and creativity that we want to encompass with our bodies.
