Contests: The Big V

… and no, not v for vagina, even though I would like it to be. It’s been too long since I’ve tasted any. A sexblogger without a sex life?! Who would have dreamt of such a thing?

No – V is for Valentine’s Day – a silly little holiday that I’ve been forced to remember because of the carnival of events, candygrams and fundraisers that various organizations in my college are running due in honor of it. The only events I approve of are the Sex Festival and Zeta Mu’s party (in the spirit of their general fabulousness, they are choosing to have a party in celebration of Friday the 13th instead).

VDay for me has always been either lacking a person to celebrate it with, rubbing salt into my angstypiningunrequitedlove wounds, the Vagina Monologues, or a shrug.

However, VDay has always cultivated a healthy level of commercialism -

- and so there are a ton of awesome giveaways going on in the sexblogosphere.

Jimmyjane is offering up one of their award-winning $185 Form 6 vibrating dildos to one lucky Facebook fan who takes the time to leave a comment on their wall about their dream product. Better hurry – the offer ends on Feb 11th!

Slip of a Girl is offering $200 worth of lingerie from Flirty Lingerie to one lucky person who specifies their favorite piece of Flirty Lingerie either via email (slipofagirl@gmail.com), in a comment on her post, or in a blog post on your blog (which I am currently doing ) anytime before noon (central time) Feb 14th.

If I got $200 to spend on lingerie? I’d probably start with a gorgeous corset + garter set. I adore corsets but don’t have any “real” ones, and my current garter belt is cheap and doesn’t exactly hold my stockings up very well.

I really like both of these (well, the first in black):

And for some reason I’m oddly taken with this PVC vinyl garter belt:

1. Your name, age, occupation, and relationship status
2. How you found out about the giveaway
3. Your preference in sex toy if you win (for anatomical reasons, the Naughtibod vibrator is only compatible with ladyparts but the Pure Wand dildo is unisex)
4. An answer to ONE of the two following questions:
a) What is your craziest first date experience?
b) You are talking to someone who has not gone on a date in months. Every time they meet someone, they get their face spat on, their heart stomped on, and their nether regions infested with an itchy sensation. Why should they continue to believe in love?

…It looks like even design sites are jumping on the bandwagon. Josh Spear is doing a His & Hers Lelo giveaway – and we all know how much I adore Lelo. All you have to do is comment. Really – just leave a comment and you have the chance to win a Mia and a Bo.
