Trojan Condoms Seeking College Journalists

Saturday, February 28th, 2009

Trojan Brand Condoms is holding a contest to find college journalists who have sex covered.  This is a great opportunity for students across the country.  From Trojan:

“The makers of Trojan® brand condoms and the National Sexuality Resource Center (NSRC) are now accepting entries for the second annual Trojan Evolve Student Journalism Award. The award recognizes college journalists who demonstrate outstanding sexual health reporting in their college print, radio, television or online media outlet, including journalistic blogs, and will be judged by a prestigious panel of experts, including former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Joycelyn Elders and GOOD Magazine Editor-in-Chief Zach Frechette.

A part of the ongoing national Trojan Evolve campaign, the Trojan Evolve Student Journalism Award is founded in the belief that an open and honest dialogue about sexual health, especially among young people, is essential to improving the poor state of sexual health in America. With one in four young women contracting an STI by age 19[1] and nearly 34 percent of teen girls pregnant at least once before age 20[2], it is clear that a deeper discussion on sexual health is urgently needed. The makers of Trojan brand condoms believe student journalists are uniquely positioned to play a vital role in advancing a sexual health dialogue essential to improving sexual health in this country. “We must evolve the poor sexual health of our nation,” said James Daniels, Vice President of Marketing, Trojan brand condoms. “With this award we hope to empower student journalists to use their influence as a way to raise awareness, and inspire change.”

College students across the U.S. can submit articles relating to sexual health issues, statistics, products, policy, or opinions by emailing them to trojanjournalismaward@edelman.com. The winner will be determined by a panel of judges consisting of sexual health experts and journalism professionals. One grand prize recipient will be awarded with a $2,000 cash prize and trip for two to San Francisco, where they will be honored at the 2009 NSRC Champions of Sexual Literacy annual event. The winning entry will also be published on the trojancondoms.com web site.

The NSRC believes supporting college journalists strengthens ‘sexual literacy’ as an expanded view of sexual health and invites positive conversations based on facts instead of hype. “At a time when sexual health misinformation and polarization are all too common, it is essential to shepherd in an honest, two-way dialogue,” said NSRC’s Executive Director Gil Herdt. “By recognizing outstanding pieces of journalism, this award encourages college journalists to start talking openly about sexual health from their own perspective, and gets students involved with improving the state of sexual health in this country.”

Of course, we’re big proponents of safe sex.  And condoms are a way to enjoy safe, healthy sex with your partner.

For a lot of women, the clit is where it’s at, and the folks over at Cal Exotic must have been well aware of that when they created the Scoop Lover!  This  ergonomically designed vibe is designed to buzz your magic button with minimal effort.

This multi-speed plastic vibe is controlled by a the dial knob that is located on it’s base and runs on 2 AAA batteries.   Plastic is a phthalate material and is easy to care for and clean.  Unfortunately, it can’t be sterilized, but you can wipe it down with soap and water and keep it in good shape.

This clitoral massager is a great for solo play and an easy way to add some extra excitement to partnered play.  The scoop on the end (hence the name) is designed to cradle your clitoris for maximum stimulation!  For those of you who love long lingering showers, the Scoop Lover is waterproof.

While it’s not as discreet as a pocket rocket, this toy is small enough to stick in an overnight bag at just 7.5 inches long.

Whether you’re looking for a new clit vibe to add to your extensive toy collection or a newbie looking to experiment in the wonderful world of sex toys, the Scoop Lover is one to look at.

Leave it to a dentist

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Doc Holliday was one of the most famous dentists of all time.  It wasn’t his dentistry that made him famous, though.  Travelling west with his, sweet, soft Hungarian devil, “big nosed” Kate, he made his name with lightning fast six shooters and a trail of dead cowboys behind him.  Move over Doc Holliday, Doc Joe is about to be famous for a different kind of “blowing away.”

Say hello to the BlowGuard invented by Doc Joe:

Remember the lingerie too

Remember the lingerie too

“A 47 year old female patient came to see me a few years back. I made her a beautiful set of upper and lower dentures (she had no teeth). They looked and fit great!! She left the office satisfied. The very next day she returned to the office unhappy. I asked her what was wrong and she told me that her teeth moved when she gave her boyfriend a blow-job the night before. I joked with her and told her to take out her teeth – that he would love that. She said that he didn’t know that she didn’t have teeth. So I took the dentures from her and made a soft custom night guard to cover the teeth. The next day she called me and was very happy.

It worked. Blowguard™ novelty toys for couples was born!”

Sweet, soft Hungarian devils aren’t the only ones who can capture a heart, it seems.  Just remember to pick up some new lingerie too.  Everyone will want to be dressed properly for the occasion!
