More About Lorals:

Lorals has revolutionized oral sex. Slip into their silky latex lingerie and have carefree, uninhibited, maximum-pleasure oral every time. Wear Lorals as fetish wear for BDSM and kink, to play with more people at play parties, or wear them to experience oral and rimming without worries – about STIs, scratchy facial hair, period fluids, sensory concerns, dysphoria, or anything that’s holding you back.

Let’s inform ourselves on the basics on oral sex safety so we can make informed choices about where and how we use our mouths!

The bottom line: all oral contact, including kissing, can transmit infections. These STIs include chancroid, cytomegalovirus, gonorrhea, hepatitis A & B, herpes, human papilloma virus (HPV), syphilis, and, more rarely, HIV and chlamydia.

The good news! There are tools to provide protection and many people find exploring these tools opens up new possibilities for oral play!

Lorals are ultra thin sexy sheer latex panties for protection & comfort during oral sex and rimming play.

Unlubricated condoms or flavored condoms can be used for protection during blowjobs – or try non-latex condoms by Skyn for a neutral flavor and try adding a touch of your own favorite flavored lube.

The Erotic Mind by Jack Morin

The Erotic Mind: Unlocking The Inner Sources of Sexual Passion and Fulfillment by Jack Morin, Ph.D. is one of the most influential books for our work here at Pleasure Mechanics. We were honored to have the late, great Jack Morin as an early mentor and advocate for our work in developing the field of Sexological Bodywork.

The Erotic Mind is unfortunately out of print, so we are sharing quotes generously here on this page so Jack Morin’s wisdom can live on and inspire you as it did us!

“We know far more about which sexual acts people engage in, how often, and with whom, than we know about what makes some of these acts compelling. We are awash in facts and figures, yet relatively little has been written about what sex means for those involved – such as how it enriches their lives or helps them feel better about themselves”

“Eroticism can best be understood as the multifaceted process through which our innate capacity for arousal is shaped, focused, suppressed and expressed.”

“Eroticism is the process through which sex becomes meaningful. The erotic is intricately connected with our hopes, expectations, struggles and anxieties- everything that makes us human.”
