Sex Toys For Feminism

How selling bedroom products empowers women.

"Hello, I'm Bree Carey and I sell sex toys."

This is not how I usually introduce myself, mostly because it would scare people too much. I have been nervous about sharing this part of my life with the world since I started working for Pure Romance in August, but I have decided that I don't want to feel embarrassed anymore.

I think Pure Romance is a lot more than giggling with a group of women over a box of vibrators while we taste flavored lube.

Pure Romance is a company that empowers women in every aspect of it's business.

The founder of Pure Romance who runs the company is a strong woman who started with just a dream.

Every Pure Romance consultant is a woman running her own business. Together they form sisterhoods and build lasting relationships of helping each other in a way women don't usually do.

Pure Romance parties are only for women. This isn't to be mean to the men; instead, it is to make all of the girls more comfortable asking questions about their bodies.

Pure Romance educates all of their consultants about sex. I read pages and pages and took multiple quizzes before I could start selling. Did you know that there are six types of female sexual dysfunction? Did you know there was female sexual dysfunction? Probably not, because it isn't something women get to talk about so when you experience it, you feel like it is your fault. I can now teach women what is happening in their bodies and help them to overcome it.

We are taking back the V-word. We are trying to even the playing field between men and women. If men can get together and talk about their genitals then women can, too!

And I am making women happy. I am putting a big smile (or an O!) on their face by selling my products. I ask my friends "When was the last time you had an orgasm, like, a really good one?" because I think pleasing yourself sexually is a huge part of accepting your body and loving yourself. How can you expect a lover to please you if you can't please yourself?

I am proud to sell sex toys. I am proud to stand in front of a group of women and talk with them about their bodies. I am proud to help girls understand how their own bodies work and how to begin to appreciate them through self-love. I am proud to talk about vaginas because they should be talked about way more than they are. I am proud that I can enhance the relationships between partners on a regular basis.

And I get to talk about private parts (and get paid for it).

If you think what I am doing is cool and empowers women, tell me in the comments or message me. I want to know what you think about this. If you think you would be interested in having a girls night with me, let me know and we can set something up. If you think you want to make money the way I do, tell me right now because I want you to find the same sexual freedom and empowerment that I have found through Pure Romance.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
