From the publisher:

In this definitive guide to great senior sex, Joan Price will help you deepen your pleasure for a lifetime. The myth that aging bodies have an expiration date when it comes to sex is just plain wrong. Sex may change with the challenges of aging, but for every problem, there is a solution. The Ultimate Guide to Sex after Fifty offers clear and reliable information, helpful tips and thoughtful interviews that disclose what works for real people—couples, singles and the widowed, across all orientations. Whether you currently have a vibrant sex life or an unfulfilling one that you'd like to improve, this book will be a real resource for you now and through the years ahead.

Everything you need to know about: long-term relationships • medical challenges • loss of libido • dating later in life • communication • elusive orgasms • self-pleasuring • sex toys • G-spots • P-spots • loss of intimacy • friends with benefits

From acclaimed author and frequent Smitten Kitten guest educator Joan Price comes Naked At Our Age, a straight-shooting book that covers a broad range of topics pertaining to sex, relationships, and aging. A follow up to Better Than I Ever Expected, Price's first foray into the subject of senior sex, Naked At Our Age pairs readers' questions with advice from over forty expert sex educators as well as Price's own warm, honest, and knowledgeable commentary. Covering topics ranging from health issues like vulvar/vaginal pain, erectile dysfunction, cancer, and Alzheimer's to relationship concerns like keeping desire alive, grieving the loss of a partner, and senior dating, Naked At Our Age provides a wealth of practical advice and fearlessly models an attitude of grace and adaptability in the face of the body and relationship changes that often accompany aging.

Often imitated, never duplicated... that's what we've always said about the classic, tremendously powerful Magic Wand. But now there's a new, cordless version of this beloved vibe, and it's got all the features that fans have wanted for years! The Magic Wand Rechargeable works with or without its foot cord, for maximum versatility. The soft, silky head is made from body friendly silicone, so it's now possible to sterilize and easily share with a partner or partners. But the upgrades don't stop there—instead of only two speeds, this new wand has 4 power levels and 4 different pulse patterns, which can be easily accessed using the simple control panel. There are even color coded lights to make it very clear what setting you're on. This new Magic Wand seems to pack just as powerful a punch as its predecessor... but long time Magic Wand fans will obviously want to do lots of field testing just to be *extra* sure.

Care/Cleaning

The head of the Magic Wand Rechargeable is made of silicone. 

Silicone is non-porous and non-toxic. Medical grade silicone is totally safe for your body. It can be easily cleaned and sterilized by following the guidelines below.

To clean silicone, wash it with hot water and a body-friendly soap before and after each use. Make sure your toy is dry before storing it. Be mindful of any seams, charging interfaces or buttons on your toy, and follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer to ensure that your toy is not damaged by moisture.

To sterilize silicone, wash it and then boil it in plain water for 3-5 minutes. You can use this method of sterilization if the electronic components of your toy are removable.

For toys that cannot be submerged in boiling water, use a solution of 1 part bleach and 9 parts water. Soak your silicone toy in this solution for 5 minutes, then allow to air dry. If your toy is not submergible, simply wipe, spray or dip the toy in the bleach solution without submerging the moisture sensitive areas.

Sterilize your silicone sex toys between partners, between holes, or if you would just feel better about using your toy if you did.

Solid silicone can sometimes be incompatible with silicone lubricant. Before applying silicone lube to a silicone toy, we recommend conducting a “patch test.” After 10 minutes of contact with silicone lube, rinse your toy and inspect for signs of bonding, peeling, or a foggy or damaged surface finish. If there are no visible signs of damage, your toy is safe to use with silicone lube.

This toy is a bit on the heavier side, so for those with arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome, we recommend considering the lighter Mystic Wand, Eroscillator, or Palm Power. Alternatively, you could try some positioning furniture such as the Axis by Liberator, great for solo use or during play with a partner. The Magic Wand Rechargeable is also relatively loud, so if discretion is a concern, you might want to consider a quieter vibe (such as the Eroscillator) instead.

VIBRATEX

Vibratex has been operating out of Vallejo, California, since the early 1980s. Responsible for the "Rabbit" vibrator craze initiated by Sex and the City, Vibratex has since complimented their ergonomic designs with options of safe, non-toxic materials. Their design team focuses primarily on customer feedback and input, making toys that the people want, and always with a careful eye to the female anatomy.

When Fun Factory released the uniquely-shaped Volta vibrator, sex toy reviewers and aficionados reached a general consensus on two points: (1) it's kind of funny looking, and (2) its distinctive silhouette delivers awesome stimulation and orgasms! The smooth silicone shaft of the Volta splits into two tongue-like appendages that flicker powerfully as they conduct vibrations from the toy's strong, rumbly motor. From a gentle flutter to an intensely percussive vibration sandwich, the Volta can provide loads of distinct sensations depending on how you position its tips and surfaces against your clitoris, nipples, penis, scrotum, etc. Once you discover your favorite techniques and positions, you just may become a part of the Volta's devoted fan base!

Details

Made of a soft-density, matte finish silicone, the We-Vibe Touch has a slightly flexible and ergonomic shape, making it a versatile and intuitive external vibrator. The Touch is easy to palm, with a pointed tip to focus pressure, and plenty of smoothly curved surfaces to surround any erogenous area in deep, rumbly vibration. Try warming the body up by using the broad sides of the vibrator to stimulate the tissue around the clitoris and moving on to direct clitoral vibration with the tip of the toy if desired. Nor is the Touch merely a vibrator for vulvas—whether used for back massage, perineal stimulation, as an accessory to oral sex, or in between bodies during penetrative intercourse, the We-Vibe Touch is as reliably pleasurable as it is adaptable. This strong, rechargeable vibrator has eight settings with a charge lasting an average of two hours.

STANDARD INNOVATION CORPORATION (WE-VIBE)

Founded in 2004, Standard Innovation Corporation spent years of research and development before launching the first version of their signature product, the We-Vibe, in 2008. Their hard work paid off, and the We-Vibe has gone on to become the world’s most popular vibrator designed for couples. SIC has updated the We-Vibe’s design several times and released a select number of other vibrators along the way, but their commitment to high-quality, body-safe materials and scrupulous design has remained constant.

The original Eroscillator was the very first toy we ever listed on our very first website, and we continue to stand by the awesome stimulation that this unique vibrator provides. This timeless toy has recently been updated and redesigned, and has changed from its original bronze hue to a shimmering plum color. The Eroscillator 2 offers a totally unique oscillating motion instead of the standard vibration offered by most toys. If you need power from your vibrator, but feel that most electric wand-style vibrators tend to be more numbing than stimulating, this powerful toy has the finesse you're looking for. The Eroscillator 2 provides three levels of intensity, which are noticeably quieter than most other vibes with this level of intensity. Plus, the flexible plug-in cord (at a whopping 12' in length) provides constant, reliable power while in use, which translates to limitless pleasure for your enjoyment! We highly recommend this vibrator!

Recommendations from the manufacturer:

CLEANING OF THE APPLIANCE - Important: Never wash or immerse into water (or any liquid) while the tiny plug at the rear of the device is removed - Clean the various parts with soap and water or any other chemically non-aggressive products suitable for plastic materials. All the components can be rinsed under running water except the power cord and step-down power converter.

The Eroscillator has been subjected to more University Test and clinical studies than almost any other sex toy, and has received Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer's exclusive endorsement.

LIBERATOR

This Atlanta, Georgia based company has a wonderfully body positive mission, to “transform ordinary bedrooms into supportive landscapes for intimacy by presenting angles, elevations, curves and motion that help people of all sizes find satisfying ways to connect with their partners.” They seem to understand the importance of representation, as their product photos show people with a greater variety of skin colors and body sizes than most mainstream sex gear companies.

Elegant in its simplicity, the Manta brings Fun Factory's legendarily strong and rumbly G5 motor to a penis-friendly shape! Two flexible wings expand to hug your circumference, surrounding your most sensitive areas with powerful, resonant vibration. The Manta's unique ring-like shape delivers vibrations that will carry from tip to base, while still leaving plenty of real estate free for other forms of solo or partner stimulation! Hold it around the head of the penis for maximum sensitivity, keep it around the base of the shaft to add an amazing new dimension to stroking or penetration, or add some water-based lube and slide it up and down for a totally unique sensation.
