Hey, badass bitch! Thought you might be interested in the new line of non-toxic, non-flammable, BPA-free toys from Pleasure Class. C-Sweet toys are designed for the adventurous #GirlBoss. They put the OHHHHH in She-E-O. C-Sweet is for all the Nasty Women who work hard, play hard, and c*m hard;) Sometimes it helped Jane to think of the emails like poems in which she was enacting her own mania, a little more each line. And just in case you think this is just another basic-bitch vibrator, let me tell you about a couple of my favorite C-Sweet goodies: - BijOoh, a subtle vibrating ring and necklace set that can take you from boardroom to bedroom - 1:1, a double-ended dildo that will touch all your bases - The Management, a remote-controlled butt plug for not-so-hostile takeovers Trust me: These will clit-erally change your life. Can I send you over some samples? And let me know if you’re free for some mani/pedi/girl talk action soon! xxJane Jane Dorner had never used a butt plug, and manicures made her cuticles bleed. At first it had been fun, the refining of Public Relations Jane. She was breezy, overly familiar, sexually omnivorous, joylessly joyful, and clever in a nonthreatening way. She was hot, but only with makeup on. She liked her shoulders but hated her arms. She wouldn’t steal your boyfriend, but she might fuck his brother and tell you about that dick. She did barre and boot camp, but she was just in it to cancel out the day-drinking. She thought women with visible muscles needed to take it down a notch, even though, obviously, you do you!, et cetera. She liked VIP lounges and Champagne-flavored gummi bears and USB drives shaped like baby
