We are honoured by those who take the time to give us feedback, whether that be constructive or positive.
We are very grateful to those extraordinary humans who are willing to share their knowledge and experience about sexuality, life and everything good, bad and ugly in between.
Whether it's been by chatting in our private Facebook group, buying a product and writing a review, commenting on Instagram or road testing a product, (after all, there are so many toys, so little time and only one box to put them in), where would we be without you all?
Feedback from Facebook

From a lovely gentleman who admires our mission:
By: AB on 20 May 2019"I saw your ad come through my Facebook feed and I simply love where your business is focused and how you seem to be going about it. I seem to be meeting people over 50 where the kids have finally left home and they finally have time and money to explore being a couple again. Or in many cases, a long term relationship has ended and new partner brings in new ideas, new energy and new possibilities to all parts of life including the bedroom. I am excited by the women I know that are trying new things, not caring so much about what others think and just having lots more fun! So I think your website and community is well timed and well placed. I like the way you are making a safe supportive space for first time customers such as the blog on buying a vibrator for the first time. I think this base level of reassurance will hopefully encourage people to give themselves permission to explore, enjoy and expand their sexual experiences and even be a bit naughty. Anyway, congratulations on a fantastic concept and I can only imagine the huge amount of time and energy to get it all moving. Yayyyyyy you
Always lovely to hear positive feedback

March 2019: International Women's Day
By: The Maven on 9 May 2019I decided to post a cheeky image of a caricature of a woman touching the clitoris of a vulva made from a Terry's Chocolate Orange. I had quite a few positive remarks however this feedback stood out..."How Disgusting." There'll always be someone who doesn't get it. Nothing I can do about that.

The Spicy Boudoir Response
Generally, the feedback was all positive except for one person who wrote to me about using the word 'Sissies' that it was an offensive word and shouldn't be used. I was thankful for their feedback as it taught me the lesson of how language can influence others and can set the tone for the thoughts, opinions and actions of others. I decided not to remove the post as the intention was not to malign anyone, only to challenge the stereotype of 'old age being a slow death sentence'.
