  1. PSESPRING 2011

  2. Eco-friendly sex! Vegan, recyclable, alternatively powered, and phthalate free options that are good for you and the Earth too!

  3. First! • We’re going to look at what should be avoided in sex toys…..

  4. Phthalates • Pronounced “thal-ates” • Used since the 1920s • Oil derived chemical used to make plastics flexible and soft • Types DEHP, DNOP, DINP have been used in toys

  5. Phthalates in Toys • Toys with phthalates in them may begin to deteriorate because phthalates do not chemically bond to the plastics in which they’re used. • The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) do not regulate toys because they’re “novelties” • Supposedly, phthalates pose a rick to nursing mothers because phthalates produce estrogen

  6. SO, if you are concerned about what is in your toy, put a condom on it! It seems to depend on who you ask…..

  7. Eco friendly latex • The whey protein in condoms has been removed by several latex producers to accommodate vegan consumers.

  8. Brands Organic Lubes • Yes, organic lube • Firefly Organics Personal Lube • Babeland: BabeLube Natural Facts Has the potential to be free of parabens, petro-chemicals, glycerin, silicone among other thing Instead, uses plant polymers

  9. Toys made of eco-friendly materials • Try dildos, vibrators, anal beads and plugs made of glass, urethane, stainless steal, or even wood • They are non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and phthalate free!!!

  10. Even toys can be powered by alternative sources: • Hand cranked vibrators: Earth Angel, pictured to the right. • Rechargeable vibrators, to eliminate battery waste. • And what, solar powered vibrators. Yeah, they totally exists. • These can even be recharged while in use!

  11. When this toy is placed over the clit and against the labia it creates suction, increasing blood flow and thus sensation to the area. The clit then begins to vibrate on its own when the slider is adjusted. This one deserves its own slide!!!

  12. Other fun stuff… • For vegans: • Recycled rubber whips • These can also be made from recycled tires • Paddles made of biodegradable, recycled materials • This applies to other fetish equipment • Check The Sensual Vegan (http://www.thesensualvegan.com/mm5/merchant.mvc) for all things sexy and vegan. They also have a variety of vegan strapon harnesses.

  13. Recycled Sex Toys • Why not, right?! Sex toys can be recycled the same as cans and bottles. • Once broken down the materials are reformed into new toys! • Companies like Sex Toy Recycling (http://www.sextoyrecycling.com/) provide coupon incentives to customers. • Also, this supports local economy within the U.S.
