Sex sells ... and we're buying

Posted By on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 10:30 AM

I went to Priscilla McCall's yesterday to get toys for my friend's bachelorette party coming up this Memorial Day weekend. And by toys, I mean silly bachelorette games and penis-shaped drinking straws ... but I found a lot of other toys there. And like a kid with ADD, I got distracted and started playing with them. From vibrating rings to dildos the size of my thigh, to vibrators that resemble my neck massager. This "lingerie and gift store" has a lot more than intimate apparel ...

Victoria's Secret isn't nearly as juicy as Priscilla's. (Side note: Victoria's secret is merely that her push-up bras are much cheaper than a boob job, and they make women magicians — when they take their bras off, their boobs disappear. Good thing the Salem witch trails are over, or else a lot of women would be in trouble)

Priscilla's goody shelves were also comprised of tightening creams, penis pumps, lipsticks in the shape of penises, fake vaginas, stripper poles, flavored lubes — and they even have pills that make your cum taste sweeter.

I felt like a kid again, in the adult toy store. I even got the bride-to-be a surprise grab bag — probably full of different toys than the ones I used to get as a kid.

The real secret is that everyone has a little freak in them, even the most ladylike on the street ... let your freak flag fly baby!

Sex sells for a reason (and these lingerie/gift stores sell a lot of it).

Another little secret for you ...

There are actually a ton of sexy stores throughout the Charlotte area.

There are two Priscilla McCall locations on South Boulevard and in Cornelius.

Other stores include Fire My Desire Boutique on North Tryon Street, I C London on East Boulevard, Just for Pleasure on Old Pineville Road, Adam & Eve, multiple Red Door locations, Karen’s Beautiful Things on Providence Road, Finery and Shinery on Central Avenue and in Matthews, I Candy on Beatties Ford Road, Larry M. Henson and Co. on Briar Creek Road, Benetton on Sharon Road, and Naughty Side in Huntersville. And let's not forgot Victoria and her dirty little secret.
