Good luck to all of you who haven't been listening this year! Choosing a sexy gift for a vulva-owning partner can be a challenge. Let's make it simple for you.
If she's all about the clitoris, try the Womanizer Premium 2
The original inventors of the sucking vibrator and Pleasure Air technology

Does she want it all? Try the Duo by Womanizer or the Enigma by Lelo.
They both offer unique sucking pleasure and g-spot stimulation! If she hasn't squirted just yet, leave her alone with one of these for a little while.
If she already has it all, try something small like the Sensuva ON natural arousal orgasm oil.
This itty bitty bottle packs a punch that it can't compare to anything else. Often called a vibrator without a vibrator, apply one or two drops to her clitoris, and she'll have the time of her life!

Similarly, ZeroGraficsStudio creates patches and stickers emblazoned with memorable tidbits. You can choose options like "support your local sex workers," "You say slut like tis a bad thing," and "every shape and size is right."
No sexuality educator's collection could ever be complete without a vulva puppet. WonderousVulvaPuppet has been making them since 1993! Including the very same one featured on Portlandia.
If you're still not sure what to get, send me a message, I'll be happy to point you in the right sex-positive, pleasure-focused direction!
