TOKYO — During a press conference last month, Tenga announced the “Tenga Rocket Project” in partnership with Japanese space development startup Interstellar Technologies (IST).

According to the company, “Tenga Rocket Project” is a project in which Tenga will fund the launch of IST’s ballistic observation rocket “MOMO,” alongside the sale of multiple cross-collaboration items as part of a larger launch promotion to be sold on Tenga’s Japanese e-commerce sites and in multiple pop-up shops across Japan.

Tenga explained, as part of the project, a Tenga-shaped message pod carrying 1,000 messages from crowdfunding supporters will be carried in the rocket and jettisoned into space. Additionally, Tenga’s mascot “Tenga Robo” and its partner mascot “Egg Dog” will be ejected from the rocket into space, eventually to return back to earth — which the company says, if successfully retrieved, would be a first for a privately owned business outside of the United States.

A Tenga Cup-shaped tracking device also will be loaded inside the rocket to accumulate data on the conditions in space for the company to use to develop a sex toy that can be used in space.

QUEENSLAND, Australia — In the wake of Texas’ unprecedented blackout crisis that has left nearly 3 million people without electricity during the state’s biggest ice storm in years, Geeky Sex Toys announced that it is re-releasing its Game of Moans: Night-Kink dildo for a limited time and donating 100 percent of proceeds to disaster relief.

“With millions of Texans struggling to stay warm amid power outages and more extreme winter weather on the way, the situation on the ground has grown more desperate over the last few days,” the company said. “Last year our Geeky Sex Toys community stepped up and helped raise money when Australia was burning, now let’s see if we can do it again to help raise money for those currently suffering in Texas.”

The silicone dildo is handcrafted and features icy white shades randomly blended with blue, making each dildo 100 percent unique.

Geeky Sex Toys also recommends people donate directly Texas organizations, which are listed on The Night Kink’s product page.

LOS ANGELES — Bellesa and its Bellesa Plus streaming service have announced the launch of its BIPOC Creators Program with a monthly budget of $20,000 to support and empower content creators of color.

“People, and women in particular, have been craving content to which we can relate: storylines that feel authentic, characters with which we can empathize, and most importantly, sex that looks and feels real,” noted a company rep. “No fake orgasms, no male gaze, no problematic storylines. As women, we want to see ourselves portrayed as we really are — as subjects of pleasure, not objects of conquest. A large part of that — of seeing ourselves reflected in this content — relies upon seeing people who look like us on the screen.” 

“The unfortunate reality is that much of the adult content shot by studios with performers of color, even in 2021, is fetishized and problematic,” the rep added. “This is the outdated reality of the adult industry. But the content exists. And we want to highlight it. We want a lot more of it.”

The BIPOC Creators Program will allow creators to “do as they choose” and the content will be co-owned by Bellesa.

“They can hire other performers, bring in camera people, hire lighting, that’s entirely up to them,” the rep explained. “The goal of the BIPOC Creators Program is to empower creators of color to make the content they want to make, by equipping them with the resources needed to make it. We want to do this in a way that is most supportive to the creator, which is why this content will be co-owned by Bellesa and the creator themselves. Creators are welcome to also use this content on their personal platforms and monetize it however they’d like.”

The over-arching goal is to bring more content that is “representative of what our Bellesa community looks like into the world. We want to support and highlight the work of the amazing BIPOC creators in this industry and promote real representation on Bellesa, without the fetishization that runs rampant in mainstream porn.”

Bellesa and Bellesa Plus invite BIPOC performers who create “amazing, ethical content that prioritizes female pleasure” to apply at contact@bellesa.co.
