Simplicity First: Why Beginner-Friendly Intimacy Products Can Be a Gift to Yourself

It happened during a quiet Sunday afternoon. Rain pattered softly against the windowpane, and I was curled up with a book, the kind that explores relationships and intimacy in all their messy, beautiful forms.

The Unspoken Realities of Intimacy Product Materials and Body Safety

It was a rainy Sunday afternoon, the kind that invites introspection. I was tidying up my space, a task I find strangely meditative, when I came across a small box tucked away in a drawer.
