December is a most predictable time of year: spending money, buying presents. But why be normal? The web can provide an interesting and unusual source of gifts that one might be reticent to purchase in person. Leather is always popular. From Portland’s local favorite, Langlitz, with their down-home web site at www.langlitz.com, to Skin Crawl out of New York at www.skincrawl.com, you will find the gamut of leather available for purchase. Langlitz boasts a roster of Hollywood star clientele for their handmade leather jackets and pants. At Skin Crawl, the on-line catalog is more exotic: they cater to the Goth set as well as the fetish community. Bondage gear can be found at www.toys4you.com. This professionally designed site would seem to offer it all: cock rings, dildos, videos, love dolls and more.

But if leather and fetish gear aren’t your thing, perhaps lingerie would do. At Lingerie Express (www.lingerie-express.com) you can view and purchase lingerie for both men and women. Bustiers, men’s underwear, dancer outfits, boas and costumes are some of the items available. Lots of pictures grace this site, so you will have an accurate idea of what you are buying. Are you looking for something more wacky?

Has your loved one always coveted braces? You can buy fake ones (as well as fake retainers) for that ever so youthful looks at www.toothfairyteeth.com. These are the same folks that offer really horrible novelty teeth (named “Bubba” and “Gorilla"), should that be more to your taste. The ever popular “Fangs” are available here too: perhaps the perfect gift for that Anne Rice fan.

Alterna-types might wander to www.bootsplus.com you will find boots galore, like high English riding boots and lineman boots, as well as lots of used cop gear.

But how about a more old-fashioned gift, like dirty books? Masquerade Books at www.masqueradebooks.com boasts an extensive offering of erotic literature. Titles like “Frederique: The True Story of a Boy Transformed into a Girl” (“one of the century’s most famous transvestite tales, now available for the first time in the United States”), “Barbie in Bondage” and “Come Quickly: For Boys on the Go” can be purchased here. At www.xclassified.com, a more woman-oriented selection of titles may be found. Their titles include: “Sex Tips for Straight Women from a Gay Man," “How to Have Your Way with Men," and “Art of Sensual Female Dominance: A Guide for Women.” There are also a multitude of links off this page which will lead you to other erotic sub-specialties, like books for lesbians, erotica for men, and fiction links (nine to be exact). So, this season don’t be dull; surprise and amaze those around you with carefully and privately chosen gifts from the web.
