Hmm. No one's ever asked to see my stash. I don't think most of my friends realize I even have a stash of toys!!! But there's some friends I'd be cool with showing my stuff to.

I'm willing to only show my husband (as my best friend lives in another state completely yet she knows what toys I have because I do show her) but I do have at least three people who saw my stash. They hoped I didn't realize it but they kinda also didn't realize I would notice if my dildo was moved from one side of the bed to the other >_>.

No ones ever really wanted to see my stash or asked? Wouldn't really care about showing them though

Oh thank you for updating us. I hope everything has gone well, or that you will be able to speak with him about it, soon.

I have never been shy about having sex toys. Hell, my 68 year old mother has seen one of the ball gags I got in the mail.

Yup, fuckingmachines.com is part of kink.com in San Francisco. You can take tours of the studios.

We did show our stash one time to our friends. Not by choice, we went on a long weekend trip and they actually seen our toys while looking for something. They were shocked by the amount and some of the toys. They had some questions and we were happy to answer.

Even though we have a good group of friends we discuss these "toys" with, the fact is, no one has ever seen them except me and my hubby. Oh, I know the housekeeper has seen them, and only a while back did I discover that my now married and adult daughter was aware of them years ago (to what extent I didn't ask), but other then that, nope. No one else.

My best friend and I have shown each other our stashes. But we are freaks according to every one who knows us lol Sexual partners are always more than welcome to explore my stash. I also recently showed some of my toys to a male friend, he was looking for ideas on what to get his girl and I gave him a few ideas and then showed him the toys so he could get an idea as what they were like.

@ Edeneve: I can't blame you one bit after getting burned before. It's nice to bond over it, but it's not necessary, so you aren't losing out by not sharing, only risking something. It's a no-brainer in your situation.

And despite my openness and willingness to talk about anything with anyone, I know myself well enough to know I would be bothered by being treated poorly over the fact I have toys. I think I would likely be good enough friends to even get on the topic and possibility to show them, so I would regret having tension between us even though I'd think less of them for having a crazy reaction and being uncouth enough to let their negative feelings come through! Even if the situation were reversed, and I was the disapproving person, I would never make my friend feel uncomfortable for sharing anything with me, it's just poor manners!

@ SaucyxGirl: I think you really did that couple an amazing service by preventing them from having to make a lot of expensive mistakes. Now he has a much better, more informed chance to pick something she will really like and I think that's wonderful. BTW, fly your freak flag proudly, lol, I do!

I have never shown my stash of toys to anyone. The only exception being my magic wand so my friend would know how strong the vibration was.

I've shown my stash to my mother in law!!!! She's very interested and says she's never used a toy before. And she reads all my reviews! Which must be really weird for her! Ain't no shame in the toy game!

Anyone who's interested in seeing what I've got! Haha, I love showing off my toys, and I love talking about them to friends. Most of the time I don't show ALL of them to people, but if there's a particular toy and they're around, I like taking it out. If they're around sometimes I forget to stash it away from my bed (Whoops!)

I totally got that phone call last week. It was my mom, yelling through the phone, "WHY DO YOU HAVE SO MANY DILDOS?!" I hope she's forgotten by now...

OMG, that is truly horrifying, yet a little funny since I am removed from it. However, I have no problem imagining how it would feel to be in that situation! You poor thing! What I am curious about is how the heck that phone call went after the opening salvo?! Of course, it's none of your mom's business and I question what she was doing that she found them.

I really am surprised she'd call you about it. I mean what the hell does she really expect you to say to her? "Mom, I have a deep need to thrust things into my body? I just can't get enough variety? There are so many holes and not enough time. Did you know the red one does..." You get my point, I am sure, LOL!

If she brings it up again, maybe you could try to calmly say you never intended for her to see those, it's your personal business and you would never grill her about her hers, so please extend you the same courtesy. If she presses you, simply say you refuse to discuss this with her and repeat that every time you are expected to reply. You could add that a parent needs to know when to butt out of an adult child's personal affairs.

My boyfriend is the only one that's seen any of them. In our 7 years together he's seen one and we tried to use another together. He thought it was weird and its just become something we don't do as he is totally not into it. I tried to change it by buying him a solo toy and he's still not sold. Other than that, nobody else knows anything about my stash. I'm not comfortable showing others to be honest. I know im late to the party,but fun topic.

We saw a movie last night, "Better than Chocolate". In one of the scenes, mom found a box of dildos/vibes under the daughter's bed. Actually it was not her stuff or bed. She was subletting while owner went out of town. Anyway the mom, never having experienced one before decided to try out a rabbit. Watch the movie to find out what ensued and the funny confrontation. We viewed it on Amazon Prime .

Not to put you on the spot, but why don't they believe you when you tell them the last time you had sex?

I have to laugh because at the beginning of reading your response, I thought pocket vagina referred to the ones for MtF trans, homologous to a packer for a FtM, LOL!!! I remember seeing one in the old section where we could suggest items for eden to carry (I don't even know if that is still active).

Anyone who shows an interest and seems relatively open-minded. I only have two toys at the moment, but my friend helped me pick out my rabbit vibrator and I totally showed off my Share to her when I got it. I've also taken the Share in to work for some of my co-workers to see since they were curious and had never heard of a strapless strap-on before. Everyone was pretty cool about it and it was fun to see their reactions.
