Passion Parties is the First Romance Company to Receive ASHA Seal of Approval
Las Vegas, Nevada, June 1, 2015 — The American S*xual Health Association (ASHA) is the oldest nonprofit authority on s*xual health information. Together ASHA and Passion Parties, Inc. (PPI) are breaking ground, providing the highest quality s*xual health information and education on how consumers can experience sensual products designed to protect and enhance their s*xual relationships. We are the first romance company in North America to break this barrier, it truly is an honor for us.
“The opportunity for Passion Parties to collaborate with the nation’s most respected authority in promoting the s*xual health of individuals, families and communities through the advocacy of sound policies and practices is a logical progression,” said Dan Murphy, CEO, Passion Parties. “ASHA has more than 100 years of credibility in educating the public, professionals and policy makers to foster healthy s*xual behaviors and relationships, while teaching prevention of adverse health outcomes — a source of expertise that will add value to our in-home presentations.”
ASHA CEO, Lynn Barclay says the relationship between a pair of seemingly diverse organizations is actually logical. “We clearly understand that s*xuality and s*xual health go together; good s*x and good health complement one another. Whether we’re talking about pleasure, good communication within a relationship, or safer s*x practices it’s important to keep in mind just how connected they all are. Our work with Passion Parties is an important means of supporting positive, accurate and meaningful s*xual health information.”
S*xual aids and toys have become more popular than ever, still many practice discretion and want to explore the purchase of such products in a more private setting and with trusted friends. Through in-home parties, Passion Parties brings the value of product knowledge, education and confidentiality not found in a normal retail environment. And with ASHA’s health-oriented information, our events have a value-added resource to share at parties.
S*x toys and aids attract a fast-growing consumer base, as well as innovative product designers and enterprising investors looking for the next “hot” business model and nothing is hotter than s*x. More than one million women attend a Passion Party each year in the US and Canada.
Murphy explains, “Many at-home parties tend to feel like an obligation, but a Passion Party is always a good time. Customers attend our parties because they are fun and discreet. They know they can attend a Passion Party, have a great night out with friends and purchase romantic gifts such as Lelo, JimmyJane and We-Vibe 4 Plus. Where else can you get the latest in design and technology?”
