Founded as a worker-owned co-operative sex shop in 1997, we have a fundamentally anti-capitalist and feminist approach to sexual pleasure, health, and education. Unlike most retailers, we don't make commission and we don't profit from your purchases. We review every sex toy, book, and DVD we stock and we ONLY carry products that we truly believe in.

We love all the attention Di**os are getting lately!

What are Di**os?

Di**os are s*x toys designed for pe*******on, and they come in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and colours!

Di**os don’t ‘do’ anything other than what we make them do (they don’t have motors or moving parts). The pleasure of di**os comes mainly from pe*******on. Di**os are made from a wide range of materials, including silicone, jelly rubber, stainless steel, and glass.

Choosing the right d***o comes down to a few key considerations: shape / style, size, colour, material, and harness compatibility. If you’re shopping with a partner, you’ll probably find that there are some similarities in what you’re looking for, but there may also be some significant differences.

Some folks are able to come to a compromise, while others opt to buy separate di**os - one to suit each of their tastes. Either way, we’ve got some hot tips to help streamline the process.

Navigating Nonmonogamy in a Mononormative World.

Join us! On Tuesday August 26 Come As You Are and welcome authors Andrea Zanin and Marla Schreiber for a reading and discussion.

It’s undeniable that we live in a mononormative society. From the concept of a “plus one” to insurance benefits for married couples and legal forms with room for just one emergency contact, mononormativity and couple’s privilege are prevalent. And although we might be aware of this, many of us can find ourselves unintentionally reproducing mononormative principles in our nonmonogamous relationships.

Join Andrea Zanin, co-author of More Than Two, Second Edition, and Marla Schreiber, creator of PolyaMarla and author of Nonmongamy and Defying a Paradigm, for a conversation about mononormativity’s impact from both a philosophical lens and a practical perspective. Together, they will examine cultural norms and values, highlighting where mononormativity can slip in unperceived, and encourage the audience to consider their own preconceptions.

More details in our link-tree! Link to Eventbrite in stories and in highlights!

A deliciously subversive and endlessly informative celebration of “kinky f*ckery,” as told by a lifelong student of kink and fetishism!

Neither a how-to guide to getting it on nor a collection of sensational erotica, Superfreaks is instead an empathetic journey into the widely misunderstood world of kink.

Lifelong practitioner and student of “kinky f*ckery” Arielle Greenberg draws on her study and teaching of B**M and fetishism to introduce kink’s history and trailblazing kinksters like Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, Mollena Williams-Haas, and Tom of Finland explain the science behind s*xual fetishes delve into the psychology behind power exchange
parse the politics of s*xual deviance

Superfreaks is an accessible, interactive and raunchy experience that invites the reader to engage their kinky curiosity. Written with folks of all genders and s*xual orientations in mind, the book features resources like

✅ quizzes readers can take with their partners to help assess s*xual compatibility
🎥 sidebars with lists of kinky representation in literature, film, music, and more
📖 an A-to-Z glossary of kinky gear, from collars and floggers to zentai suits and beyond

Superfreaks challenges and dismantles longstanding myths about kink perpetuated by pop culture phenomena like Fifty Shades of Grey and 365 Days. In doing so, Greenberg names the systemic marginalization kinky people experience and argues that we must build a society that accepts and celebrates s*xual diversity of all kinds. The book also affirms the importance of consent and not “yucking someone’s yum”—key concepts inherent to the practice of kink that are essential building blocks for safer, more inclusive s*x.
