Kathy Griffin Takes Her Mom
to The Pleasure Chest
Monday, February 18th, 2013
Last Thursday, Kathy Griffin convinced her mother Maggie that The Pleasure Chest was a fancy restaurant. See what happened next in the clip above.
Featured in this segment are the blowjob bib, the leather kitty hood, industrial knee pads, the Sex Kitten grey flogger and the Jackboot Paddle.
The next night, Griffin went on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno to talk about their adventure at The Pleasure Chest.
Kaopan
Friday, February 15th, 2013
Kaopan
We’re not sure if this is an actual trend or if Japan is trolling us.
Today we learned the word “kaopan” which is a combination of the Japanese words “kao” meaning “face” and “pantsu” meaning panties. Kaopan is a fetish for wearing panties on your head, and RocketNews24 has the photos to prove it. The photo book is “believed to have come about after the appearance of underwear-faced ‘superhero’ Hentai Kamen, or ‘pervert mask’, himself a parody of long-time Japanese classics like Kamen Rider, Ultraman and Power Rangers.”
You can check out the trailer for Hentai Kamen above. We’re praying for a US remake with Jake Gyllenhaall. If you want to try kaopan for yourself, we fully support you. But don’t be surprised if the world isn’t ready yet.
“It’s nonstop fisting.”

Fifty Songs of Kink
A Pervy Playlist from Our Readers
Thursday, February 7th, 2013
Earlier this week, we asked our readers to suggest their favorite kinky songs. Behold “Fifty Songs of Kink,” a pervy playlist crowdsourced from your suggestions. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find everything you suggested in the Spotify library, so we added a few of our staff’s favorite songs too. We also put the most controversial entry– a Nickelbag song– at the end of the playlist. Listen to the end if you’re a true masochist.
We’d like to congratulate Michelle who was randomly chosen to win our collection of kinky toys. We’d also like to thank Cheyanne, who was the first of two readers to suggest Tom Lehrer’s “Masochism Tango.” This song was our staff favorite, so we’re sending Cheyanne a $20 Pleasure Chest gift card!
Thanks to everyone who entered the contest. Enjoy the tunes and have a very kinky Valentine’s Day!

Shades Of Kink
Tuesday on the Oprah Winfrey Network
Monday, January 21st, 2013
Tune in Tuesday night to watch the premiere of Our America with Lisa Ling: ”Shades of Kink,” a very special hour devoted to BDSM with a visit to our West Hollywood store.
Lisa Ling goes beyond the best-selling fantasy novel, Fifty Shades of Grey, to explore the real world of BDSM: bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sado-masochism. What she finds is a kinky truth far more complicated than fiction.
The Pleasure Chest is proud to be featured in this documentary and we encourage anyone curious about kink to check it out. Watch a teaser clip above, and then tune in to OWN on Tuesday at 10pm/9 central to see “Shades of Kink.”
