Prude From Philadelphia, Among Other LA2DAY Staffers, to Attend Erotica LA Show!
BY Robyn Ewing FOR LA2DAY.COM Jun 5, 2008
Calling all sluts! Active or aspiring! Or those merely curious about the gadgets, activities, and revelers of the sluttery lifestyle!
WHAT THE HECK: The 12th Annual Erotica LA 2008, a 3-day sexuality and lifestyle expo, the most heavily trod sex-po in these United States.
Q: What do I bring?
A: Your scrawny chest. Enter to win a free boob job.
Q: But I am not really into sex since the opportunity doesn't come up often enough to make a viable hobby out of it. So what can I hope to learn in such a slutty environment?
A: You just need a sex ed refresher! Take some lap dance lessons. Sit in on ‘Sex Toys for Beginners.' Bring something to take notes with, and some deep, dark questions to ask at the porn star Q & A.
Q: But I only want to watch. I mean, look around...
A: Stage shows galore for you: "Erotica Through the Ages" and "Hollywood Men Dance Review" and bring your earplugs for the "Screaming O Contest."
Q: I understand there will be a lot of latex there. I am concerned about my fossil footprint.
A: Eco-nerd! Take a break from the pressure to go green and greener and guiltlessly inhale at the "Latex Fashion Show".
Q: Father's day's coming up! My dad loves things like genitally-shaped jewelry, nudist colony resort vacations, and he needs a lawyer for something he did by mistake out in Modesto...
A: One stop shopping for you! Exhibitors include legal services, libido supplements, lifestyle resorts, lingerie, lubricants, magazines, books, message products, message services, matchmaking services, men's products, micro cameras, novelties & toys, outreach organizations, photography & erotic art, programming for cable, shoes, spa discount services, swimwear, and mo'!
Q: I want to meet men -- and women -- you know, those upright living and breathing things that you see walking around everywhere. For possible short and/or term relationships.
A: That's what the after-party's for! Humans invited.
