Contest: We Want to Hear About Your Sex Toys! (Seriously)

UPDATE: Now with new anonymous form submission. CLICK HERE.

So. You guys. Coolest thing ever. We had such a fantastic response to the lube giveaway we ran last month on Zelda Lily, and it made me realize how many women really need something to spice up their sex lives, but they don’t know where to begin. I thought it would be amazing if we could get women (and men!) talking to each other about what toys they use in the bedroom and how they use them. I wanted to create a “Sex Toy Discussion” gallery on Zelda Lily, but obviously it wouldn’t be very thorough or useful if I just wrote it myself. So I talked to the folks over at FunLove.com by Fascinations, and they are excited to be sponsoring a contest for our readers to submit their own personal sex toy reviews, and to share with each other how they spice up their own sex lives.

And the prizes? Are AWESOME. We’ll pick one winner to receive a $100 gift certificate to FunLove.com, and two runners-up who will each receive a $50 gift certificate.

How do you enter? Send an email to me at evilbeet@gmail.com. The subject line must be “Fascinations Contest.“ Use our awesome anonymous entry form HERE. Your entry — which will remain COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS — should include the following information:

1) Your favorite bedroom toy — and I mean that in the broadest sense. What do you just love to bring into the bedroom? It could be a vibrator, an outfit, a lube, a brand of whip cream (or just a brand of whip), a wig, a camera, a nail polish, a video, beads, a game, whatever. Whatever comes to mind when you think of things that make your sex life better.

2) A link to where you can purchase your favorite toy. Preferably, the link will be to somewhere on FunLove.com, but if you can’t find your toy on there, a link to somewhere else is fine. If it’s a do-it-yourself kind of toy, that’s fine too, just be sure to explain it to us.

3) How you use your favorite sex toy. This is where there’s some room for creativity. If you were talking to another woman looking to spice up her sex life, how would you explain to her how you use your toy? Do you use it by yourself? With a partner? Same or opposite sex? All of the above? How do you incorporate it into foreplay or penetration or phone sex or cyber sex or your quiet nights alone? Why do you love it? If you use it with a partner, why does s/he love it? How do you love with it? Talk openly, and help a sister out here.

You’ll be judged on the usefulness of your suggestions, your creativity and the quality of your writing. The contest ends at the end of the day on Tuesday, January 26.

We will only be selecting one winner and two runners-up, but we’ll be incorporating most of the entries into our final gallery, so this is your opportunity to help your fellow women have exciting and fulfilling sex lives. Again: ALL ENTRIES WILL REMAIN COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS and any identifying information will be removed before it gets published anywhere. Your secret is safe with us.

Also: Unlike previous contests, you can enter more than once. Have more than one toy you adore and want to share with the world? That’s cool — feel free to submit all of them. However, we will be picking three unique prize-winners, so it’s not like you can sweep the thing. But, hey, the more you enter, the better chance you have of submitting one of our favorite entries!

Lastly, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to FunLove.com by Fascinations for supporting us in this effort, and for being the source of some of my own personal favorite bedroom props over the years. You can get a little closer to them on their Twitter or their Facebook page.
