Last week, Dan Savage posted a blog about a local entrepreneur who has been denied a store at King of Prussia Mall (KOP). Jill McDevitt, who is known in the West Chester area as the owner of Feminique Boutique, applied to the KOP mall to open a new branch of her sex-positive, female-friendly lingerie and sex toy store. They denied her, citing the sale of sex toys as their reason. Dan Savage’s blog sums it up pretty well: “Some Vibrators are More Equal Than Others”.
McDevitt’s store has an array of lingerie in all sizes, t-shirts with quirky and positive messages (“Real men beat their meat. Not their wives and children”), condoms, phthalate-free sex toys and offers informative classes (even one about how to please a woman). All of the employees have been formally educated in human sexuality and believe in their slogan, “Women are sexual subjects, not objects.”
Other stores that are currently in King of Prussia Mall selling similar items as McDevitt’s, include Victoria’s Secret, Frederick’s of Hollywood and Spencer’s. To take action and support a new Feminique Boutique, sign the petition here
