Sun, Sea, and Zero Shame: Inside SVAKOM's F**k Taboos Getaway
by Trista Wang
Sunshine, ocean breezes, and poolside fun... it’s the ultimate summer vibe.
So when SVAKOM teamed up with KINK (the fabulous LGBTQ+ party crew) to throw the last bash of the season, we knew it had to go big, bold, and gloriously inclusive.
Enter: the F**k Taboo Getaway Edition—a weekend-long escape that smashed stigmas and turned up the heat in the best way possible.
A Weekend to Remember
On September 5th and 6th, 250 guests gathered in the seaside gem of Dapeng for a two-day adventure they won’t soon forget. The only rule? Arrive early to soak up the sun and stay late until the music faded into the stars.
Decked out in our favorite swimsuits (and with sunnies firmly in place), we dove headfirst into a weekend of pure, playful liberation.
The schedule? Stacked. Think games, live performances, and activities for everyone who joined the party. Highlights included an exclusive sunset set by the iconic DJ Socorro Lopez, followed by beats from the wildly talented DJ Mingo. And when our favorite sex coach Nancy Wu took the stage to demo the art of bondage and candle play… let’s just say things got extra steamy when a pair of surprise go-go dancers whisked her into an impromptu show of sensuality and rhythm.
Toys, Games, and a Whole Lotta Splash
Of course, we couldn’t resist adding a little SVAKOM flair. One of the crowd-fave games? A wild underwater treasure hunt—with contestants diving to find our waterproof toys (yes, they really can handle pool parties, showers, and even the sea).
Goodbye Summer: Hello New Adventures
With toys, tunes, games, and gallons of good vibes, this getaway was the perfect send-off for the season.
But don’t worry: we’re already crossing fingers (and toes) to take this show on the road and bring the fun to wherever you are next summer. Stay tuned.
We grow up absorbing the idea that our “sexual peak” happens in our 20s. Culture frames youth as the golden era of desire, promising more energy, spontaneity, and novelty. But luckily, sexual wellness doesn’t follow a simple rise-and-fall curve. It evolves.
In a recent article, we’ve explored what squirting is, what it isn’t, and how many myths still circulate around the topic. Good news? Squirting isn’t a goal to achieve, but an experience that can result from the simple pursuit of pleasure. Bad news? If you’re pressuring yourself into experiencing it, chances are it’s going to be elusive.

At a party recently, a man told me he spent over $100 on a sex toy to reignite his marriage — only for his wife to say she didn’t like it. The disappointment quickly turned into resentment.
That moment made it clear: the problem isn’t usually the toy. It’s the pressure we put on one product to fix everything, when most of us barely know our own desires.
Versatile pleasure products change everything. One toy, many sensations. If one doesn’t work, another might. No fear of choosing “wrong” — just joyful exploration.
From DuoGlow’s 5-in-one design to Beatrice’s full-body wand and Margot’s clever G-spot curve, versatility turns pleasure into discovery… and removes the pressure for good.
