Sexuality Happens

I was lucky enough (I am so lucky, aren’t I?) to become an affiliate and reviewer for Liberator.com. Yes, that amazing place that sells all sorts of sex furniture and things to make sex more fun and even more amazing that it already is.

Currently, I own the Liberator Ramp in Leopard (here is my review), and the Fascinator Throe in Safari (here is my review). The Ramp is nice…I use it occasionally to spice up my sex life, and often times in classes, especially ones on disability.  Moreover, I totally use it in bed to prop myself up to the right height for watching movies (am I nerd? yes. But it just shows the Ramp’s multi-uses). The Throe? That I use all the time. It’s bloody (haha…no pun intended) brilliant. I use it all the freaking time. If either me or my partner is bleeding from the cunt, if there is possibility of ejaculation, if there is gonna be fisting, when I plan on long fucking sessions, when I have a partner who is deliciously wet all the time (and I remember to put it down), with wax play. You name it. I love it, I use it, and then I wash it, and let it air dry.

So you can imagine how excited I was to see the giant Scoop box on my door step. Actually, let me clarify.  Liberator sent me the Black Label Scoop, so it has a black cover with clips to hook restraints to. I got it out of the package, let it air out, and before I could even move it to my bedroom, both Kali and Kinsey were on it. I had it on the rounded side, and they LOVED jumping on it and making it rock.  Le sigh.  Let’s play a game; sex toy, or cat toy?  Who knows!

So I read through the booklet of all their other furniture items (ok, who think the Buckaroo looks hilarious, and wonderfully amazing at the same time?), checked out the restraints and blindfold, and waited to reclaim my Scoop from my fur kids.  Finally, it was MINE!

F was over for a birthday lunch I was cooking her, and was kind enough to (while clothed) get an idea of some of the positions that could be used…both for fucking and in a kink sense.

Now, I have to say, I wasn’t sure about this. I mean, what the hell are you supposed to do with moving/rocking furniture item. And while yes, it was fun to play around with, I was wanting to incorporate it into sex. While playing around with it at home, I discovered what I personally find to be the single most brilliant thing about this item:

When you flip it over (so the curved side is up), and lie over it on your stomach, there is NO PRESSURE ON YOUR KNEES. None.  It’s all on your chest and hips.

For those of you that read me often, you’ll remember that I’m disabled.  One of my biggest sexual frustrations with this disability crap I deal with is that I love rear entry/doggy style sex, and I love being spanked. However, both tend to either involve being on your knees for a period of time, or bending over the bed, which after a few minutes causes too much pain.  This piece of furniture has re-opened some of my favorite sex positions to me.

First of all, I took it to one of the local dungeons for a play night.  My pet moose Melinda was kind enough to be my test dummy for the Scoop in a kink sense. I had her bent all over it every which way, spanking her, caning her, paddling her, you name it.  I had her lie on it forwards, backwards, across it, over it, on both sides. One of my favorite things was putting her on her hands and knees on it while it was in a rockable position, and tell her not to let it move as I spanked her. Of course, if she moved, there was a punishment. Much fun.  Also, I liked that I could get onto the Scoop with her for closer contact.

Next, Q became my guinea pig.  I put the Scoop on my bed, and had her lean over the rounded side so I could spank her.  It was perfect – she didn’t have to bend over too far, and it was quite comfy.  Then, I had her move it back on the bed (flat side down still), and lean over it backwards. FUCKING. BRILLIANT.  Her cunt, with her legs spread open, was perfectly at face level when I was sitting comfortably on the bed. No knees needed, and no neck cramps. Very well thought out. Then, to make sure that it worked well for the receiver of oral sex, she oh so kindly went down on me (for product testing, of course!) as I lay over the Scoop.  At one point, I propped up my neck/head a bit with a pillow, as I had some how propelled myself farther back as she ate me out, and was getting quite the rush of blood to my head. But mmm. It was good, and a nice back stretch at that.

As far as the restraints? Well. I’m kinky. Really kinky. And to be honest, velcro will not hold me, or any of my partners. I kind of wish that the restraint attachment sites were D-rings, so I could just hook my own cuffs to them, but they are plastic buckles that are only compatible with Liberator restraints. I wonder if I could somehow change them out. I mean, I tried the wrist cuffs and thigh cuffs, and not only did the very comfortable velvet like material slide down my legs in an instant, but I could get to the velcro to undo my cuffs  Bah.  But the blindfold is very nice, and quite comfortable.

The other day, I had some severe knee pain while giving Q a back massage. She actually suggested that next time, I put her over the Scoop for her massage to get a better angle at her, where I don’t have to be on my knees. I think that’s a really good idea, and next time she’s over, I will definitely give it a try.

Did I mention that the cover zips off and is machine washable?  Which is good, since I totally use the Scoop as a piece of furniture for guests to sit on when they’re over (I’m dead serious – I’m all about multi-tasking items).  Also, it comes with a dust cover/case for carrying it, handle included.

I’m not sure I recommend the Black Label Scoop over the good ol’ Scoop. It depends if you’re really into bondage, or if you’re more vanilla and just want some fun, softcore tying up.

However, if you are going to get one piece of Liberator furniture, I would suggest the Scoop. The Wedge is a bit small, the Ramp is nice, but doesn’t have too many ways to use it. But the Scoop? It’s good for oral. It’s good for intercourse. It’s good for kink (spankings, canings, etc). It’s AMAZING for those people who have disabilities involving their ankle or knees, or anyone with joint problems. It’s comfortable. It’s useable as an extra seating area. I love it, and it’ll definitely be getting a lot of use in my place of sex worship.  Maybe I’ll even use the throe under it for a fully…LIBERATED…bed.  Groan. I know.

Good for kink, good for queers, and good for those with disabilities. Five stars!
