In 2001 Searah Deysach opened Early To Bed, the first woman-owned sex toy shop in Chicago, an institution in the local queer and sex community. After years of selling vibrators, she expanded into also carrying gear for trans folks of all ages. We'll hear stories from how the business has changed over the years for both owners and customers, learn how to hand-sell a vibrator to a stranger, and take a tour of her screwy sex toy museum.
