So I've noted a few things since working at the shop (the adult store that I've been working at to fund my trip to Europe–I wrote about it a couple of posts back, if you didn't know).

Here's my list:

1. A lot of sex toys are very similar. Like most things, there's always a cheaper "knock-off" version of a toy–and, a lot like clothing, price differences between toys often have more to do with brand names than how well they actually work.

2. A lot of people don't know a lot of things about sex toys. Or, about the assorted types of toys/toy accessories there are. I didn't, but I've learned a whole lot. (This could be a good idea for another article, but I've already gotten a ways in to this list, so not today. Not this time.)

3. Men are fucking weird. Like, generally, but also especially so when they're in adult stores. You've got the guys who creep on you/think the store's a front for sex working. The guys who try & hit on you while buying porn, or a sex toy or like, enhancement pills. Guys who come in and start giggling about everything. The guys who come in with their girlfriends/wives and try to act like they aren't interested in anything, knowing damn well they're curious about *everything*–and variations of these types, plus more. Like, wow.

4. Anyways, moving on to number four–some people think it's weird, or scandalous to work in an adult store, but mostly it feels like working at any other retail job; and if you've ever done it, you know that creeps be creepin' everywhere. The only real difference is that I get free stuff a lot, and I'm allowed to say things like fuck, cock, anal, pussy etc. Actually, I have to–because a lot of our products have those words in the name.
