Come As You Are (701 Queen West, 416.504.7934)
pros:
- Lotsa fun little toys, books, strap on gear, etc...
- friendly staff who are willing to help you out
- breast binders! I bought one for a friend there, & it was her very first one. They made it painless, with a locking washroom & general helpfulness.
- my mama teaches workshops there.
- nice window displays. :)
- very accessible for people with disabilities
Cons:
- I haven't had enough time to look around to give a better analysis.
Condom Shack (231 Queen West, 416.596.7515)
pros:
- nice staff
- lots of condoms...
- probably the most accessible & widely known sex shop in the city
cons:
- annoyingly well-known, some would say
- neither a pro nor a con: mostly focusing on straight couples
- not very private, with all the hustle outside the door.
- small selection of lubes (thats all I really looked at while I was there) that were not all icky & chemical. Basically it was bad taste or yeast infection.
In my experience, Come As You Are is really nice & classy, whereas the Condom Shack is way sketchy. I'm pretty sure I'd never go to the Condom Shack for anything.
ReplyDeleteI hate the Condom Shack. It shouldn't even be compared to the other ones. Come As You Are is awesome, and my dad recommended it to me as the second-best sex shop in Toronto (in his opinion). His first recommendation was Good For Her. He introduced me to it!
