the INQUEERY

I have a very sensitive nose.  I love nice smells, but my nose is really picky about what it deems is nice and what is not.  There are maybe three colognes total that I can tolerate, and absolutely no perfumes.  I love more natural scents, like lavender or sage, because I am a tattooed hippie homo.  True story; in high school I dated a girl (that’s the type without a penis) for 7 months, 6 months of which was purely because of the lotion she wore.  It was this pear body lotion that she’d rub on her hands and arms, and I’d hold her hand just so my hand would smell like said lotion.  Well Jimmyjane supplies these really cool scented massage candles called Afterglow and they sounded like something me and my nose could get behind.

One of the biggest complaints that people have about silicone lube is that it stains your sheets.  While this is only partly true (adding a little alcohol to the stain before washing your sheets usually gets the silicone out), I am always on the hunt for the perfect lube.  That’s why I was so pleased when I was sent System JO Anal H20 to review.  Anyone that knows me knows that I swear by their silicone formula after years of being a whore, so I was really interested to see how their water-based equivalent would measure up.  Dare I say that I am infinitely impressed with System JO?  It’s quite possible.  Let’s see!

As a Taurus, I enjoy my routines and ruts.  As a child, when asked what my favorite animal was I said a rock.  My sedimentary attitude doesn’t necessarily transfer over to my sex life though, as is made evident by my apparent desire to use every lube in the universe at least once.  And what better lube to try when attempting to spice things up than one that claims to “heighten sensitivity and provide a deep pleasurable stimulating sensation during use“?  Sliquid Organics Stimulating Gel claims to do just that, and what’s best is it’s 100% organic and Vegan!  Does it live up to it’s rep?

On the heels of their unfortunate recall, I contacted RockHard Laboratories, the company behind Rock Hard Weekend.  A nice guy named Josh issued the following statement to me the next morning:

Let’s be honest, it stinks.  We have spent the last two years putting procedures and testing in place to avoid this exact situation.  We have used a certified, independent lab to produce our formula for the last year and half.  This lab tests our product internally with every lot produced, and six times a year we spot check our formula with another outside lab specifically looking for the three major ED actives (we always came back clean).  All this testing aside, we failed our customers by not identifying one of these ED analogues.

“Ruh roh…”

Well this explains a thing or two!

Rock Hard Weekend has recently had several batches recalled!

November 9, 2009 – Atlanta, GA – RockHard Laboratories announced today that it is conducting a voluntary nationwide recall of the company’s dietary supplement sold under the name RockHard Weekend (RHW) specific to the following Lot Numbers:Blister Pack: T12 705 08 (exp: 10/11) / T12 705 09 (exp: 3/12, 8/12)
3ct Bottle: R417 0509 (exp: 09/12)
8ct Bottle: T237-0509 (exp: 06/12)

Rock Hard Weekend, reviewed here by me upon initial release, has caused people (including myself) some pretty intense side effects.

“FDA laboratory testing determined that some RockHard Weekend packages contain sulfoaildenfil, which is related to Sildenfil, the active ingredient in FDA-approved erectile dysfunction drugs.

The undeclared use of the drug ingredient in the recalled supplements may pose a risk of death or injury to users who take nitrates and prescription medications, such as nitroglycerin, for high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and other conditions, the FDA said.

Negative interaction between sulfoaildenfil and nitrates could result in life-threatening drops in blood pressure, officials said. RockHard Laboratories said one of the raw ingredients imported from China was tainted with sulfoaildenfil, causing the product contamination.”

I still stand by Boost Ultra as being your best bet when it comes to over the counter male sexual enhancement pills!  Regardless, all supplements affect different people in different ways, and you should always consult a doctor before taking anything out of the ordinary.

As always it is my goal to keep you folks in the know.  Be careful and please e-mail me at mebrandonb@gmail.com if you ever have any questions or concerns about any product!

I am always wary when I am asked to test sexual stimulants.  The side effects usually outweigh the benefit of the pill in question.  Stiff Nights worked well but resulted in some awful heartburn the day after.  Rock Hard Weekend also worked well, but I and many others have reported intense headaches that linger a day or sometimes more.  A rep from Boost Ultra contacted me praising his sexual stimulant and asked me to give it a try.  I did so on a night where I didn’t have a date to worry about and didn’t have anything to do the next day just in case there were side effects.  Needless to say, I expected the worst but hoped for the best… So does Boost Ultra work?  Let’s find out!

I’ve been big on finding the best lube to not only jerk-off with but to also give head with.  Lots of lubes out there have a nasty taste to them and/or don’t last a long time.  I’ve been on a bit of a health kick so I’ve been looking into more organic products all around, and Good Clean Love makes a lube that is just that.  How does it hold up against a furious masturbation session though?  Let’s find out!

I was having a conversation with a customer yesterday about oral sex.  On the heels of my glowing review of Kama Sutra’s Pleasure Balm, I was all about talking to him about how great it is.  The conversation swung to the topic of lube (he was looking for a good water base to use with his new silicone toy) and I mentioned Sassy.  I also mentioned how it’s great for jerking off as well as for giving head.  He was confused.  “Why would you use lube to give head?”  Sigh.  I spoke with him about the benefits of using lube for blowing someone and showed him the bottle.  He couldn’t get around the design on the bottle (a girl, pink, blah blah blah) so I showed him Sassy’s sister, Sliquid Organics Gel.  He said “How does this compare to the Sassy one?” and I said “Come back tomorrow and I will let you know!”

Once people find the lube(s) they like and they get the “basics” of playing with toys down they often come to me asking for some extra goodies to make their play time fresh, either with a partner or alone.  My default is to suggest merchandise from the Kama Sutra company because I enjoy their quality, as well as their flair for packaging their products.  I have had the chance to play with Kama Sutra’s Pleasure Balm both with partners and by myself, and so I decided to toss up a review for anyone interested in adding a little kick to their sex!
