Sexual Health ; Thursday

"Today, I thought we could do something fun," Mindy said as she greeted the class on the corner of Sphinx and Mallard, where she had asked them to meet. "So, we are going on a totally illegal field trip to a little store in town that I will actually not accompany you into. For legal reasons. I have already gotten in enough trouble with the Department of Education for contributing to the sexualization of minors, or whatever. Excuse me for thinking kids should have condoms!"

That was a long ramble with very little explanation in it.

"This shop we are visiting is called Dite's Decadent Delights. Although I will not chaperone you while you are shopping, I strongly encourage you to treat yourselves to something nice. If you have any questions about what things are, please ask a sales assistant or come see me on this bench across the street from the store. Discreetly, please. I am concerned that this is more against the rules than I counted on."

All right, Eleanor screwed up her courage and entered the store. It couldn't be more shocking than the row of wooden phalluses at the Bali street market, could it?

... It wasn't, and yet in another way, it was. Those had been totems, symbols of the fertility of their deity. This was ... people used these.

She had told Joker that she understood that people were endlessly creative, when it came to sexual matters; that had clearly been an understatement, on her part. How would someone even use that round jelly ring? Or the massager that certainly wasn't intended for a sore spot on one's back, or nipple clamps, or whatever the hell Honey Dust was.

Was this the sort of thing he'd meant, when he'd said that he'd done a great number of things? Was this what was expected, when two people grew close to one another? It seemed a touch crass.

She hated to leave the store without purchasing anything, so finally she found an inexpensive pair of suggestive dice (http://sassysensations.com/lets-fool-around-dice-game) and bought them. Maybe someone could explain to her what the appeal was, in making intimacy into a game dictated by dice rolls.

At the very least, this field trip had been enlightening.
