Sex Toys

Do’s and Don’ts of Shopping in an Adult Toy Store

As everyplace has written and not written, spoken, and unspoken etiquettes, the adult toy superstore has a few of its own too.

Do

Ask all you need to know about the toy you are about to purchase. Would you rather spend hours of research trying to figure out how your newly purchased adult toy works or just ask the store attendant? Steer clear of superstores that won’t or can’t explain how a product they sell works; it shows they have no idea about what they are selling or are trying to hide shady details about the product.

Don’t

Be the foulmouthed character everyone wishes won’t come around anymore. It pays off to put in some thought to what you are asking. Adult toys superstore retail sellers are humans, too, and will answer all questions you have in their best possible way. This doesn’t give you the right to be vulgar with your questions since it’s an adult toy purchase ‘anyways.’

Ask personal questions as regards these toys. Retail sellers are under no obligation to share with you their personal experiences with the sex toy you are asking about. Sure, some of them might throw in a story or two, but only if they are willing. If they don’t share their experiences even if it seems to you, the story will make your understanding better, its best to simply understand they have their reasons for not sharing this information.

Do

Try to be as comfortable as you can be. You might be shy discussing sex toys with someone else, trust me, it gets easier after a while. All you need is an open mind. Or maybe everything the retail seller has to say suddenly sounds funny; there’s a clear difference between laughing when an actual joke is told and making a joke of the situation.

Don’t

Ashamed of being there. Everyone is there for a reason, and it has nothing to do with judging you. Have as much fun as you can. Remember, the retail sellers are there to help, and other customers present also came to purchase a toy. Consider it a safe space and try to have as much fun as you can.
