Day 17 Blog # My Top Three Porno's

It's got to be one of the questions I get asked the most: "What's a good porno?"
Here's my top three.

1. An Open Invitation, A Real Swingers Party In San Francisco (Private Independent 02) - DVD

Private aren't usually one of my favourite purveyors of porn, tending to be all about HIM - fake boobs, formulaic sex and hours of pumping with the typical money shot at the end. BORING!
'An Open Invitation' however has definite couples appeal, combining storyline, natural actors, hot sex scenes and great locations - the last being an actual swingers party in San Francisco. Fabulous!
Women love this dvd because it's hardcore without being aimed at men only. Too many 'women friendly' porno's are just too soft or too cheesy.
This one ticks all the boxes and stands as a Passionfruit fave.

2. Street Heat 1 (Joybear) - DVD

You could call this the ABC of porn as opposed to the Foxtel. The British love of 'natural' as opposed to the hyper-reality loved by Americans works a treat for the porn genre. 'Streetheat' combines innocence and sex in just the right measure and delivers realistic, believable scenarios. Here, the Streetheat crew stop some very pretty girls on the streets of London and persuade them to become stars in their own porno. It's irresistibly voyeuristic with an unbeatable mix of amateur sex and professional production.

3. Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide To Female Orgasms (Vivid Ed) - DVD

Tristan Taormino is this great mix of nerdy looking American sex educator and super hard core, feminist porn star. I love her!
Ms Taormino doesn't don the 'expert' moniker for nothing. She gives a wholly educational, explicit, no-holes-barred, sensual and straightforward program designed to teach you how to have orgasms and improve them. Her honest instruction utilises diagrams, a handmade velvet anatomical interpretation and best of all, five couples who show the viewer exactly how it's done. It's not gratuitous or overdone, the models are natural and open, and the information is clear, precise, inclusive and helpful. Some of our favourite sex toys, such as the We-Vibe and the Pure Wand are featured as tools to improve lovemaking and showcase the stunning diversity of female orgasm. Excellent.

Day 3 Blog # Passionfruit's Top 3 Toys of The Year.

All toys have been given points out of 10 for three criteria.
Form, Function, Fun

Number 1: Lyla by Lelo
$159.00

In number 1 spot with a score of 10/10 is the spanking new Lyla from Swedish brand Lelo.

10/10 points to Lyla for superior design, aesthetic and function.

This little gem is the toy I've been waiting for!
Remote controlled vibrators have been popular for some time, especially after seeing them in such films as Shortbus (borrow it if you can) and The Ugly Truth.
The trouble is - they've never worked very well.
Also, the person in control of your little vibrating egg, never knows if it's working, so is constantly looking at you with an expectant, hopeful, slightly alarmed gaze.

Lelo's industry first sensemotion Lyla, enables the controller to know exactly what's happening because the control pad vibrates in unison with the egg.
By simply flicking the wrist and moving the controller from side to side, you can make the egg vibrate as fast or as slow as you like.
You can watch this very cheesy video to see exactly how it can be used.





Beautiful form, hypo-allergenic, waterproof, re-chargeable, 12 speed.

10/10 points to Lyla for Fun.

What could be more exciting than going to a party, dinner date or library with this sexy little vibrating ball inside you or your pants?
You'll love it and your partner will love your little secret.
Try it. It's awesome!

Number 2: Calla by Fun Factory
$195.00

The fabulously soft, delectable Calla by Germany's Fun Factory receives 9/10 points.

10/10 points to Calla for superior design, aesthetic and function.

Calla has a beautiful form and texture that makes you want to hold it and love it and never let it go. If you were a fly on the wall at Passionfruit, you would notice me and the other staff plus the customers, walking around with this toy firmly gripped in our palm.
The loop at the base is a lovely ergonomic design and the control buttons lights up as soon as you pick it up so there's no fumbling in the dark.
It's waterproof, re-chargeable, hypo-allergenic and multi-speed.
Only 1 point is lost for the soft buttons that can be damaged by long fingernails.
No points lost for the Fun Factor though.

10/10 points to Calla for Fun.

Calla has remarkable strength - so much so that you can still feel it even after you've turned it off!
The floral whorling shape is wonderfully suited for both vaginal and anal use and the base vibrates perfectly over the clitoris.
All of these factors combine to make a toy that is versatile, sensual, powerful and sexy.
A must have in your toy box.

Number 3: We-Vibe 11 by Standard Innovation Corporation
$169.00


The We-Vibe is the first toy to give both partners the ride of their lives!

8/10 points to We-Vibe 11 for design, aesthetic and function.

Invented by a savvy Canadian couple, the We-Vibe was created for couples to use together.
The ingenious design allows the woman to insert one end of the C shape into her vagina, while the other end wraps itself externally around her clitoris.
Nine different variations in vibration can then be utilised - but the best bit is that the little device stays inside during sex!
For the woman, it feels as though she has a vibrating penis inside her, and for the man, it feels like a hot, vibrating vagina! Hell yeah!
It's waterproof, re-chargeable, hypo-allergenic and multi-speed.
There are now many variations of the We-Vibe - a testament to its groundbreaking brilliance.
I take just 1 point away for the slight difficulty in changing the speed whilst it is inside you;
a tricky procedure at the best of times.
Another point lost for the sometimes rubbery feel of the toy.
Lots of lubrication is a must!

10/10 points to We-Vibe 11 for Fun.

If you're planning a hot weekend away, a surprise birthday present, or something to spice things up a little, We-Vibe 11 is a brilliant sex toy.
It's the best toy to buy if you don't want your partner to feel like they're missing out!
Just know that it takes 24 hours to charge initially.
Many customers have rung through first and asked us to have it fully charged in time for pick up.
A job we're happy to do!
