Sex Expo NYC 2017: Must-See Details, Events & Products

Remember sex ed? The whole classroom was giddy and nervous as the teacher explained the ins and outs of basic, heterosexual sex, particularly the whole ‘no babies, no STDs aspect of it.’ As we grew into adults, many of us realized that there was so much about sex that we were never told, that we never read in textbooks or never gleaned from the birds and the bees. Sex has been stigmatized to the point of leaving so many adults not only ignorant, but also unable to reach their pleasure potential.

Well, y’all. Rejoice. Sex is back and it’s busting out of that stuffy, scary classroom and the boundaries of society’s stunted stigmas. The Sex Expo has returned to New York to “explore everything intimacy, relationships and sex.” Whether you’re a sexpert or a newbie, there’s something for everyone at the third annual weekend of real, true sex education and exploration in Brooklyn, New York. You can shop and demo different products in a body positive, gender-inclusive and LGBTQIA-friendly environment September 23-24 from 11:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.

Check out the lineup, weekend schedule and ticket prices at the Sex Expo site. Not sure where to start? Here’s a helpful guide of what you might like based on your interests.
