TAMPA, Fla.—The newest issue of Monthly Fetish is out, and this time the theme is sex toys. The online magazine also welcomes Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals as a contributor.
Sex toys have been around since 28,000 B.C. In the current issue, the Featured Fetish section explores how toys are used around the world. Fetish in Technology looks at how sex toys have also gone high tech. Mark Dion and his Marine Invertebrates’ exhibit with sex toys are featured in the Art of Fetish. Fetish 101 covers why you need more sex toys in your life and Fetish in the News is all about Amber Rose dishing on sex toys, chewing gum and the perfect date night.
This month’s Unbound Interview profiles Bad Dragon, creator of toys that bring fantasy to life. The article covers why design and quality control are so important to Bad Dragon, where to buy the products, how to customize the toys, and much more. The interview also includes photos of these unique toys.
Site visitors will notice a brand-new column called “Ask the Doctor.” Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals is a sociologist who specializes in gender, sexualities, work and organizations, media and technology, and popular culture, as well as a published author and go-to for cultural and news media. She’s also Monthly Fetish’s new contributor and expert, who will be answering your questions, as well as contributing articles. Her first article is titled “The Thin Line Between Fetish—or Not …”
“On a societal level, we have so many hang-ups and anxieties about sex—and many of those beliefs are tied directly into social norms and our perceptions thereof. In truth, as long as consent is present, there is no such thing as ‘normal’ or ‘ordinary’ sexual behavior,” Dr. Tibbals explains. “With this in mind, I’m excited to be contributing to Monthly Fetish—the opportunity to discuss social constructions that surround our perceived norms about sex is invaluable and has the capacity for positive social impact.”
“We’re excited to have Dr. Tibbals as a contributor,” says the editor, Jenn. “She adds a new perspective and expert knowledge to our magazine. Her first column is brilliant, and we can’t wait to see what she pens for next month.”
