Whoa! Thanks Seattle for an amazing 15 year anniversary party! Yes, there was a line out the door but hopefully the sidewalk burlesque and Dan Savage delivering cupcakes to those waiting made it one of the best lines ever.Here's a photo of Miss Indigo Blue, Dan Savage, Shar Rednour, and me:Babeland PartyWhen Claire and I opened Babeland 15 years ago we were inspired but not sure how it would turn out. A vibrator had changed my life, and I wanted to turn other women on to the joys of toys. Turns out that a lot of folks of all genders love both toys and Babeland?s style of sex-positive retailing.At the party Dan and I did a little Q& A but most of the entertainment was burlesque.� Many folks sported old school ?Toys in Babeland? Tees, establishing their bona fides as long-time sex toy connoisseurs.People told lots of Babeland stories, whether it was of awesome sex educators helping folks out, that orgasmic first vibrator, a strap-on that got the job done, or a class where future best friends met.The vibe was sweet and lovely. Seattle is an amazing community and I?m so proud to be part of it.
