Founded in 1977, this woman-owned business has grown into a trusted name, known for its commitment to promoting sex positivity. Located in the heart of San Francisco, this is the flagship store of the now famous brand.

Good Vibrations has several locations across the Bay Area, but this store on Valencia Street in the Mission District is a standout. The atmosphere inside is warm, brightly lit, and welcoming, designed to feel more like a boutique than a traditional sex shop. This design reflects the store’s mission to normalize and destigmatize discussions around sex and pleasure.

Education and Workshops

The store regularly hosts workshops and events on a wide range of topics, including sexual health, consent, pleasure, and kink. These events are led by sex educators and experts in the field, making them an invaluable resource for anyone looking to learn more about their own sexuality or enhance their intimate relationships.

Some popular workshops include:

• Sex Toy 101: A beginner's guide to choosing and using sex toys.
• BDSM Basics: An introduction to kink and BDSM, covering safety, consent, and techniques.
• LGBTQ+ Pleasure: Workshops tailored to the unique needs and desires of the LGBTQ+ community.
