Sheltering in Pussy #SexEdPornReviews 309: Arabelle Raphael and Barbary Rose


CrashPad episode 309 stars the return of porn friends Arabelle Raphael and Barbary Rose. Our performers script their own scenes, and these two came with a wish to act out quarantine fantasies. (It’s important to note that this was filmed before San Francisco went into shelter-in-place mode and we all went into a production hold for the safety of cast and crew.)

As porn creators, we value adult media for its ability to entertain and inspire. However due to society’s lack of sexual education resources, especially that which includes queer and trans sex, we understand that many people look to porn for education. With this in mind, we invite sexual health educators, sex bloggers, and sex geeks to watch and share their thoughts on our newest episode and ‘fill the gap’ with #SexEdPornReviews that add information you might not get from the scene itself.

But first… a moment to swoon over our stars!

“OMFG YES FINALLY I CAN NOT WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!!!! I ALREADY KNOW IT’S GONNA BE AMAZING!!!”
– Angela (Une Femme)

Watch our newest CrashPad episode, starring Arabelle Raphael and Barbary Rose!

Playing Safe in Quarantine

“Mutual masturbation is a great way to sexually connect with your partner without touching them. It can be done side by side if you’re in the same place, or digitally on a video chat. Quarantine will never stop orgasms!”
— Carly S. (@Makeupandsin)

“Side by side masturbation is such a turn on?? Couple it with describing in steamy detail what you want to do to your partner, and you came make safe sex work during social distancing.”
— kenna (she/they) (@Mama_Cook_)

“Solo or with a partner(s), watching porn can be a way to engage in intimacy. It can be intimacy with yourself or intimacy with sex partners live/virtually. Take time to get to know your body!”
— Yael Rosenstock (she/her) (@YaeltheSexGeek)

“Porn can be a great place to get ideas of new things to try or new games to play. Use porn as a way to expand your imagination especially now that play parties are on pause.”
— Carly S. (@Makeupandsin)

“In the time of Queerantine, #SexEdPornReviews “come” in handy as a great lockdown activity. CrashPadSeries Episode 309 with Barbary Rose and Arabelle Raphael left me with a mighty femme fever 😍”
— kenna (she/they) (@Mama_Cook_)

“In the behind the scenes, Barbary says she loves using gloves during sex regardless of a pandemic, and I can’t agree more! Black gloves all lubed up are *chef’s kiss*
— kenna (she/they) (@Mama_Cook_)

“COVID-19 is not an STD, but it is highly contagious through saliva.

— kenna (she/they) (@Mama_Cook_)

“CrashPadSeries’ new episode (309) is sexy even if it wasn’t #covid safe.”
Safe tips from the video:
1. Solo masturbation
2. Dirty talk
3. Watching

Not safe with folks you are physically distancing from:
*** Being within 6 feet ***

Watching porn (also safe!)”
— Yael Rosenstock (she/her) (@YaeltheSexGeek)

Oral Aftermarket
