Bringing Sexy Back

Vegan condoms? Every once in a while, there’s a cruelty-free topic that surprises. The initial response to the subject of condoms usually is… aren’t all condoms vegan?  Well, here’s the scoop: Nope. Although the latex in condoms comes from rubber trees, most condoms are made using a cheaply manufactured animal by-product called casein, derived from milk.

Here in America, the vegan condom of choice is Glyde, which uses a thistle extract instead. Available in regular and flavored. The fruity flavors come from sugar-free organic extracts.

If you’re in the UK or visiting, Condomi and Fusion condoms are other vegan brands.

How about alternatives for some fun sexessories? There are plenty of cruelty-free options for keeping it sexy and safe in the bedroom (or wherever). Here’s a couple of places to browse, though I recommend you wait until after-work hours

• The Sensual Vegan
  This comprehensive site is proof that it’s possible to choose a cruelty-free lifestyle without hindering your adventurous spirit.
• Babeland
  If you’re in NYC, take a little trip to one of the Babeland store locations. Guaranteed to spark your imagination, and they have plenty of cruelty-free items. For those outside The Big Apple, there’s the online store (search under “vegan”).
