Let's Go.... To Sexpo!

The city of churches welcomed the arrival of the 2007 Club X Sexpo, with hundreds of eager and curious Adelaideans flocking to the Wayville Showgrounds for a taste, touch, smell, listen and look at the latest in adult health, sexuality and lifestyle products. There's something for everyone (aged over 18) at Sexpo.

According to the promotional material, Club X Sexpo is back in Adelaide with "bigger, better and bolder" exhibitions and performances than ever.
There's definitely more to Sexpo than lubricants, condoms and vibrators. This year we're presented with less of a pornographic approach and more of an adult edu-info-tainment style.

Exhibitions and displays included AIDS/sexual awareness groups such as Clioraid, the EROS Foundation and the SA Sex Industry Network. These groups provide vital services, support and information for sex industry workers as well as the heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, transgender, and intersexual in the community.

Amongst the titillating paraphernalia ranging from subtle to explicit, are the diverse offerings of love potions and energy/libido boosting serums. The adventurous queued up for a free taste test, while the sceptical poured doubt on the details of pamphlets/flyers and 'customer satisfaction quotes' on posters.

The most popular aphrodisiac were the chocolates, shaped as penises, breasts, full lips and voluptuous women. It was the only exhibition stand which featured chocolate and proved to be a winner.

At the various exhibitions selling sex toys, a wheelchair bound gentleman gingerly fondled a silicone anal plug as the exhibition assistant explained its "incredible ability to boost pleasure for sensational anal sex...", and young women 'test drive' a vibrating finger massager (clitoral stimulator) by placing it on their breasts, wrist, neck or other erogenous locations.

The main attractions were the performances on stage including shows from amateur strippers to the professional female strip artists. If you happen to be in the front row while the male dancers from 'Badboys Australia' are performing, you get a free calendar.

After 6pm, the atmosphere and action at Sexpo heats up on the main stage, with Miss Nude Australia, Arianna, showing off her physical talents and attributes, and a stunning, eye-popping display of penile art from the Pricasso/Badboys Australia.

Sexpo not only opens your mind to different manners of sexual pleasure but also opens your eyes to see sex as less taboo and more liberating.
