About
General Information
Pleasurist Pleas”ur*ist\, n. A person devoted to worldly pleasure. [R.] –Sir T. Browne. (2) a hedonist or sybarite.
Pleasurists is an adult product review round-up blog, similar to Sugasm or The Week In Kink, meant to bring together a large number of reviews of sex toys, sex accessories, book or video erotica, and other adult products every week from all around the sex blogosphere.
The new Pleasurists will come out every Monday, every submission made prior to Sunday at 11:59pm PST will be included. Only submissions that are actual reviews will be accepted, though in addition to adult product reviews we also include blog contests with adult product giveaways, allowing you to spread the word of the contest and potentially get more entrants. We do not have a limit to the number of reviews each person can submit to Pleasurists as long as they were posted in the week prior.
We don’t require you to re-post the links, though it is highly encouraged. Part of the reason why it’s not required is because we are trying to make this as comprehensive as possible and do not only include links that are submitted through the submission form. However, if you re-post it we will know and you will be more likely to have all your reviews in the round-up, even if you forget to submit one week. Re-posting is also good for your commUNITY karma.
We will post a reminder for submissions every Sunday morning to catch any straggling submissions for this week’s Pleasurists, so subscribing to the RSS feed will not only give you the Pleasurists themselves, but also submission reminders.
Editor’s Pick
Each Pleasurists includes swag contests, reviews, and an editor’s pick. The editor’s pick is chosen from only the links that were submitted through the submission form prior to the submission deadline (another reason for you to remember to submit your reviews!).
The criteria for editor’s pick is as follows: the review which somehow stands out among the rest due to the content of the review. A review may be chosen because of the writing style, additional unexpected information, a particularly titillating story, or so on. The editor’s pick is a review that makes the editrix desire to own the product being reviewed.
The editrix admits that she may have a bias toward bloggers she knows, however, she is aware of this bias and tries to judge each review on content alone, and not who is writing it.
