Sex Toys Get Cartoonish

The Wormie, 3D Kama Sutra and Mooing Thong

— April 12, 2008 — Naughty
Sex toys have reached a playful level. In short, the latest erotic aids combine playful art and practical functionality.

One of the most confusing toys from the collection is the I-Rub-My-Wormie_Massager. This toy is for "worry-free and healthy play". To be honest, it looks like a kid's toy to me. The designers at Big Tease Toys must have some serious issues!

Next, we have the Sculpta-Sutra, I think you can tell what it is by the name but I think it deserves some explanation. Sculpta Sutra is the world's first 3D guide to the Kama Sutra. Its designed for couples who want to explore the art of lovemaking. The kit comes with clay for modeling (enough to create two models) along with the guide book. The couple would use the models to try out the different positions listed in the book. Funny enough, the kit includes a bed and other props to add to the experience.

What next?
