Kiss & Ride ATL

“My partner has chronic illness, so a queer-centered disability inclusive space with approachable staff would be incredible and affirming”

“Lgbtq+ folks rely on community and safe spaces. Having a sex and wellness shop specifically geared toward queers would provide access to products designed for queer pleasure and affirmation. We need pathways to pleasure that are specifically designed for us and for bolstering our well-being.”

“I would feel so much more comfortable shopping in a store that understands my unique anatomy and sexual needs as a trans man. I would also feel much more confident asking questions in a store where my body is welcomed and expected”

“I would feel much more comfortable purchasing sex toys in a place that I know is sensitive to my disability and sexual orientation. Most importantly, as a woman I would benefit from a space where I know I will not be preyed upon”

“I sometimes feel fetishized and objectified as a trans woman, and that anxiety has me really only utilizing sex stores as a quick stop to restock on lube. I don't feel comfortable sticking around and actually perusing the store, and I feel as tho a queer-centric space would help me feel safe and comfortable actually browsing the place.”

“I feel so much more comfortable consulting people from the LGBTQ+++ community on sexual wellness and intimate topics because I feel more at home and less likely to be judged. We queer folk are also far more creative!”
