You can’t get pregnant, or get anyone else pregnant, by playing with yourself — good to note in this year of 7 billion. That’s why Grist loves vibrators. We recommend you pick up a green one — or three.
If you like to combine your sex toys with potentially pregnancy-inducing activities, we recommend you pick up some eco-friendly condoms as well.
This month only, if you buy your green sex accessories from progressive, woman-friendly Babeland, 10 percent of the price will be donated to support Grist. You can shop online or visit their stores in Seattle or New York City.
Green sex toys and green nonprofit journalism — together at last!
But wait — it gets better. If you’re in NYC or Seattle, you can come to a Babeland/Grist party this Thursday, April 14. There will be freebies and giveaways, “sexy eco-trivia” (don’t ask — I have no idea), and organic, Fair Trade chocolate from Theo (as a chocolate snob, I can attest to its scrumptiousness).
- The NYC bash will be at the SoHo store, hosted by Grist advice columnist extraordinaire Umbra Fisk. Details on Facebook.
- The Seattle soiree will be at the flagship store in Capitol Hill, attended by a number of us Gristies, including TreeShagger columnist Holly Richmond. Details on Facebook.
