"I didn't want to get too explicit because my intention is to give the reviews and the rating system a little levity. Sometimes when something is too much it looks like it's trying too hard.
oh- it's not just a little "o" it's the really sad, pathetic whimper of something that could have been an orgasm.
O- Orgasm Like Chinese Food, you know what they say about Chinese food? You eat it then an hour later you're wanting more because you weren't satisfied by the last go round.
OO- Elbow Grease Orgasm, when you REALLY have to work on getting there.
OOO- Oh yeah Baby, that's going in the Arsenal! Meaning, this toy is pretty darn good, didn't have to multi-task too much to get my little piece of bliss!
OOOO- Whoa Mamma! Grin from ear-to-ear lasting for the next week...Well, that's just self-explanatory!
OOOOO- Orgasmic Rapture resulting in WNS (Wet Noodle Syndrome) Few things have the power to do this, but damn it's good when it does happen!
"Part of what I aim for is accessibility. We, as women, all go through much of the same struggles because healthy sexual expression is not taught or encouraged, but it's never discussed easily.
"I tried a more explicit rating system first but if felt wrong to me only because Orgasmic Ecstasy vs. Orgasmic Rapture was really difficult to differentiate and not as easily understandable. I really want people to be able to quickly know the difference between an "oh" and "OH OH OH OH OH." Using more mundane parallels like food, I felt, bridged the gap!"
My rule of thumb, never keep a toy (or a man) in your bed if you can't get at least OOOs, that is unless the toy (or the man) can be learned (or in the man's case taught) so that you can achieve the minimum 3 OOOs.
Life's too short to settle for less!
I love your rule of thumb--I wish I'd learned to apply it in past relationships! I have several instances of watching television during the act due to boredom. lol
