We were on Sunset and looking to kill a few minutes while we made full use of, what felt like, thirty five dollars in quarters we put into the meter outside. Why not take a stroll into Hustler?

It's everything I expected, and more. It was actually some sort of cross between those naughty commercials that come on after midnight and an Apple store.

The absolute highlight had to have been the porn parody videos! These videos use the basic plot and characters of sitcoms/reality shows and use then cast adult movie stars with slightly altered names. Really, who doesn't want to watch a parody episode of The Office, Seinfeld, The Cosby Show, 30 Rock, Married With Children, or Bewitched?

You can even catch a (rather mild) trailer of the Seinfeld video on YouTube ("seinfeld porno") that includes Elaine and the Soup Nazi, errr, I mean, Porn Nazi.

E: "You know, I'm not even sure into double penetration today. How's your Asian...tranny...lesbian...gangbang?"  
PN: "NO PORN FOR YOU!"

Just in case you haven't heard, I like adult cinema. How much do I like it, you ask? Enough that I've been to Hustler Hollywood several times and on 3 of those occasions I have bought enough entertainment to earn a free "grab bag" o' porn.

That's right people. THAT'S how much I like it.

So, needless to say, I have been to my share of adult geared stores. And, quite honestly, most of them are so skeevie that I felt the need to take a Silkwood shower afterwards just to scrub away the perviness.

This is why I like the Hustler...

It's clean. And when I mean clean, I don't mean sterile, bland, Orange County clean. Oh no. I mean the kind of clean you get right before you get dirty. Like that quick shower you take before your 2 am appointment stops by. The kind of clean that means business.

It's well lit. Now, this may seem like no biggie to you non-porn-store patrons, but trust me, nothing gives you the heebies like a dark corner near the tranny section...

There's lots of parking. And call me a cheap bastard, but in Hollywood it's a refreshing change to not have to pay the type of rate that Eddie Murphy or Hugh Grant negotiated to park your car.

And finally, it's well stocked. This, IMO, is paramount.
They have a large selection of movies. Name your preference or perversion, and they either have it or can order it for you.

They also have a nice lingerie section, and though I have not partaken (they only get worn for like 5 minutes anyway), the selection looks stellar. There are even clothes that can be worn in public and though pricey, they are quality.

The section I especially like is the sex accessory section. Condoms, lubes, toys, cleansing cloths, it's all there. In fact, Hustler is one of the only stores I have been able to find my favorite cleanser, Sweet Spot. The sex toys are plentiful and range from high school date price to call girl date price and everything in between. Hell, I even found the squirting vagina of our own yelper Flower Tucci!! (picture coming soon...no pun intended)

All in all, this place is the Costco of your sexual needs. Regardless of if you are an undercover freak or a porn star yourself, this place has what you need and allows you to shop without feeling like Chris Hansen is gonna jump out of the back and interview you for his expose.

So why not the whole shabang?  Because this beauty comes with a price.  And like most of our LA ladies who paid top dollar to look as good as they do, you'll pay top dollar to shop at such a cool store.  
As much as I enjoy my erotic entertainment, $40 bucks for a DVD when I can roll to the low budget place in my 'hood for $25 can be a deterrent.  

But all in all, I like the brand, I like the store and I like the free bags of goodies I get from my excessive spending.

Ok so, how could I forget about my beloved Hustler? My big sister and I stumbled in here late night at about 11:30, oohing and aaahing at all the naughty displays, how-to books, penis shaped this and thats with amazement at how large the selection is.

I absolutely ADORE the decor of the store - vibrant displays of every single type of lingerie of every different pattern and texture I could think of...Leather, fur, feathers, suede, you name it. A few of the items were a bit too much for me, as I'm not into sex toys or anything of that sort, (I'm a bit old fashioned, if you will) but I do enjoy kamasutra books, handcuffs, skimpy underwear, and a few good porns here and there ;)

What really caught my attention was the more decent variety of objects like their cute mugs with witty logos and their tees and v-necks displaying words like, "Talk shit, get hit"....I like ;) The couture line is also off the chain, very detailed beaded earrings, necklaces, and even shoe wrap charms for those who love to rock the stilettos with a bit of an edge ;)

Kept it simple and purchased as couple pair of underwear for a little under $35.
Customer service was quick and easy, (hahaha) as well as friendly.
Free parking in the backlot, so we were in and out of there ;) I'll be back.

They don't carry fake eyelashes.  Or the glue for fake eyelashes.  I found this out on Halloween on my way to the Viper Room party, when I frantically ran in, already in my costume.  I just needed a little glue to touch-up!  Darn.  Seems silly to me- why not make it a one-stop shop for all those Hollywood hookers and strippers, or just your average frisky tourist?  Anyway, the merchandise seems kinda pricey, but I guess if you just have to have the Hustler-brand lingerie, toys, etc., go here.

A friend of mine whilst in school in LA really liked the ease of parking (on street or  in the rear), the big windows where you can see people outside pretend not to look inside and the 10% GI discount. I had fun, I mean my friend had fun.

Oops! One quick walk around this store and my friend and I realized we were in the wrong place for bachelorette party goodies.

However, this is the right place if you happen to be in the market for sex toys, scandalous lingerie, and porn. You know they have it all when they even have an ethnic porn section.

And they even have a few sexy Halloween costumes for those LA yelpers looking to get a head start on the holiday...

Went for the first time last night. We arrived around 10 PM, which seems late, but they're open till 2 AM. We parked in their free parking lot out back (thank goodness for that because we saw parking enforcement out at midnight) and headed in. The mat, reading "Relax, it's just sex," was welcoming and put me at ease.

We headed to the tamer section, with the pasties (which were actually REALLY cute as stickers or something) and the candles that double as warming oils. I liked the noni and plumeria scent. I was gonna buy the plumeria, but by the end of the night, my nose was having a fit and I think it was from smelling all those different candles and my friend opening and closing the lid to hers.

We meandered through their lingerie, and had a gigglefest in the dressing room where I tried on a corset. I had my two friends help me out cuz there is no way one can get into a corset by themselves, what with the bazillion buckles in the front and the lacing up in the back. We had fun till the manager told a staff member to tell us that it was only one person in the dressing room at a time. She was really friendly about it, but y'all don't understand - you just have to use the help.

After, we headed to the restricted section with the porn and the vibrators and bondage stuff. A staffer gave us a very informative rundown and showed us all the latest gadgets. There was a $1500 gold plated vibrator and other nifty gadgets. I was intrigued by this u-shaped one which he told us women LOVE because one end is inserted and stimulates the g-spot if its inserted during sex while the other end stimulates the clitoris. He shared that his girlfriend loves it etcetera, and I got a visual image and suddenly felt very uncomfortable when everything got really personal. Call me a prude, I dunno.

We looked through their jimmyjane collection, which looked great and there were some really nice smelling candles and ceramic massage thingies there too. We spent about 45 minutes trying to convince someone to buy a vibrator, but it wasn't happening.

I looked through their ticklers, but was weirded out by the fact that they felt like a fluffy cat's tail being dragged across my skin. Sexy? No. Creepy, yes. We walked away with fuzzy handcuffs, a candle, and two boxes of Trojan's ultra ultra thin condoms. Vibrators will have to wait. I know, we're lame.

Unfortunately, I was too stuffed from vegan Thai food and a blended drink to get the Ron Jeremy which everyone so strongly suggested. *Sigh. Next time!

The need for fresh porn used to necessitate a dark journey into the unknown. It almost always meant driving to some black hole; parking your car in some dark alley; and entering through the back door of some dark building with no windows. There were velvet curtains inside and tinted two-way mirrors designed to give the perverted shoppers a sense of privacy and an air of dignity - but little did they know that there were employees on the other side secretly laughing at their creepy asses as they browsed the shelves with obvious boners.

Luckily, the dark ages of night stalker porn shopping have been replaced by the bright and sunny advents of the Internet and Adult TV On Demand. Nowadays, one need only travel as far as his own living room (sporting obvious boner if so desired) in order to obtain the kind of whacking material that once required a long and lonely drive into the dodgier parts of town.

Having said that, why the hell would anyone in their right mind ever consider patronizing a gaudy, highly conspicuous sex shop located right smack dab in the middle of one of America's most famous strips? That's the question I've been asking myself for the last two hours, since the minute I first walked into this fucking pornado.

I hope nobody sees me in here with this stack of Adult DVDs in my hand. What will they say when they see that I'm STILL browsing? What will they think of my slightly hunched over posture as I try to conceal my obvious boner? I know what. If anybody spots me, I'll just tell 'em they're gag gifts.

"Yeah, that's it. Gag gifts."

"Did somebody say gag?" interrupts a Female Hustler Employee, "those are in the Oral Section! Right over here."

She grabs me by the arm and drags me over to the Gag sub-genre of the Oral Section.

"Anything else I can help you with?"

"Uh yeah, actually..." I start looking around nervously.

"Don't be embarrassed" she says.

"I got this stack of movies here, but uh, I don't see an ATM."

"Ass To Mouth? That's in our anal section!"

She grabs me again, but before she can drag me over to the acronyms in the Anal Section, I stop her: "No, no, I mean like a cash machine."

"Oh. Well, we accept credit here."

"Yeah, but I don't want it to show up on my credit card statement, you know?"

"Oh come on. This is 2009! Get over it!"

She takes the stack of movies out of my hands, proceeds to the cash register, and starts ringing me up. I take a look around, expecting to be ridiculed by onlookers, but patrons appear to be too busy with their own horny needs to be bothered. And then it hits me: man, the self-centered people in this city really are so self-absorbed in their own shallow lives that they can't stop for one second to acknowledge a fellow human being.

Thank God.

"Relax...it's just sex!" I love this store. You can find all your sexual needs here. But I really love the cafe and book section. I found many books (mainly books with the Suicide Girls and Masumi Max in them) that I can't find anywhere else. If you go to the cafe, try the Ron Jeremy (who I've seen there a few times, and once he almost hit me with his car) or try Jug Juice, which is my husband's favorite...figures!

The employees are great! They'll open any toy you need to see and let you feel the vibes from it. LOL.

BUT...what they really need is some plus size clothing maybe...big girls like to be slutty too. Haha. Be careful if you're parking in the street, be sure to turn your wheels because you will get a ticket if you don't...weird, I know. There's usually plenty of parking in the structure.

Happy humping....

Sometimes it can be hard and embarrassing to find the perfect accessories to fit your sexual life. What are you looking for? What moves you into a passionate flurry? Or if you already know what you want but aren't sure where it is, how do you ask for it without blushing or busting into adolescent laughter? Why, you go to the Hustler store in Hollywood of course!

With friendly, knowledgeable staff who are always willing to help with their preferences, understanding and guidance you never have to worry about your fears, concerns or lack of sexual knowledge here. Hell, they are trying to educate everyone in the art of pleasure. With a huge selection of adult DVDs, lubricants, vibrators and other toys, as well as clothing, lingerie and fetish equipment it seems unlikely that you wouldn't be able to find what you are looking for or what you need.

Open late, for those who finally buck up and balls up after a few cocktails in them, the Hustler store is conveniently located on the Sunset Strip in Beverly hills, near a lot of fun bars. Have a few drinks and wander over where you'll be pleasantly educated, surprised and enriched by all the sexual goodies that they have in store. Don't be shy, go ahead and buy!

While the store is quite popular and highly televised it means that prices aren't going to be crazy cheap. Sometimes that's OK. Like a good tattoo you don't want to buy a toy or trinket too cheap because it won't last, it may not be healthy or just plain bad news. Even if you don't purchase enjoy learning more about what's out there and about yourself.

Came here to shop for a bachelorette party with a friend.  Too much hardcore stuff and just regular merchandise i.e. clothing, hats, etc.  Wasn't able to find any bacherlorette stuff as I had hoped, but maybe I was just in the wrong store to find that.

Also, there was a REALLY creepy guy working there who kept coming up to me and my friend suggesting products.  I really wanted to get the hell outta there at that point.

and it will take about
15 Minutes to read all the Signs and

*** i've gotta 10ft black pole that everybody likes to climb! ***

i went to a hollywood house party 2yrs ago for two actors.
i love my actor friends because they have the best parties.
this one was so cool, it inspired me to redecorate ... sorta.

these actors were roommates with a b-day in the same week.
so naturally they decided to have a party together to celebrate.
i had been to their house before, but this time it was different.
there was a stripper pole propped in middle of the living room.
that nifty lil feat of engineering amazed me even more than the
spectacle that followed ... babes trying to find their inner stripper.
that pole was the life of the party.  needless to say, it's lots of fun!

so the next day i went online just to figure out how they did this.
well, it was a $200 pole designed by "lil mynx" and it is portable.
it works off an adjustable pneumatic cylinder (made by a guy who
obviously applied his engineering degree for common good). lol

it comes in many of colors and finishes to suit any kinda room.
since mine went into the rec room (former garage) i got black.
it's sleek, discreet, and lots of fun for anyone less than 200lb.

the irony is that i had planned to use it for parties and such,
but i got so overwhelmed with work and daddy duties that my
kid and his friends are the only ones to benefit from it ... it has
become an indoor monkey bar.  they climb up and twirl down. ;(

*** well at least one guy in this house is getting a kick outta it! ;p ***

Ron Jeremy smoothie/shake is amazing! So amazing that i almost feel a little tooooo good, if you know what I mean. Maybe its just the atmosphere. When adult shops come to mind, I think seedy workers in a poorly little fluorescent space and an odd smell.
Not here thank heaven. The staff is very friendly and really knowledgeable.....they give a lot of personal advice (which is hilarious because I have only gone here when I am bringing people from out of town. I feel like this store is a great L.A. experience) ! Great for funny gifts and sexy gifts and you can't help but feeling like a porn store when you leave.

buy a Ron Jeremy smoothie on your way in and another on the way out. They are THAT good.

I was going to a Lit show a few years ago at The Roxy, and had some time to kill, so me and my "date" at the time came over to scope the joint out.

Lots of books, toys, porn, etc....

What I ended up buying was a shirt that had the word Hustler on it. The chick I was seeing had a great rack, so the Hustler logo would have looked awesome on her chest. It reminded me of those babydoll women's tees that had logos on them like "whore", "slut"; the "irony" was that most of the women who wore them were neither. It was a great fashion statement, especially if they had great racks.

Anyways, that's what we bought, and we were off to the Lit show.

Oh, and my current GF bought me my first HD-DVD porn for Christmas last year there. Yay!

For my 300th review, I thought it fittingly appropriate to review a place that caters to naked sweaty folk with nice bodies.

I love that in addition to the multitude of sex toys, which are a highly valuable commodity to masturbators with short attention spans such as myself, they were having a huge sale on shirts, hats, and what looked like crotchless gym shorts for 5 bucks each. Not even Forever 21 does it this cheap, and without a brand name to boot!

Their porn selection, obviously, is off the chain. I was able to find the Nautica Thorn section right away (although I came away empty handed; I'll have to ask my future gift recipient if they have any specific titles in mind). Josh also got carded here. Good times.

Really random, but they also have a coffee shop here. No cream for me, thanks.

Alright...it's high time I review this place.  I had, what I feel, to be quite a unique experience.
My friend and I decided to go here to pick up some choice birthday gifts over a year ago for our homegirl's birthday.  As we're pulling in to the parking garage, we see a house-sized black Bentley with the license plate "HUSTLR" just chilling in the upstairs lot, blocking at least four cars in their parking spaces. My friend jumps in excitement...
Friend "Ohmygod that has to be Larry Flint!"
Me: "Why the hell would Larry Flint actually go the Hustler Store?  Let alone roll around in such an obvious car. It's probably just the owner."
Friend: "Who the hell do you think owns the place?"
Me: "I dunno...a CEOs in the sex toy industry?"

So we park, take the elevator up, and as were walking up the ramp...
HOLYSHIT it's muthafrickin' Larry Flint!  In all his lascivious glory, Larry is seated in what looked to be a platinum plated wheel chair, being pushed by easily the largest, scariest African American man I have ever seen in my life.  As he passed us, he gave us a knowing wink, smile and nod.  My friend and I just stared in awe.
Friend: "He totally checked us out!"
Me: " You think he thinks were here together?  Like buying toys for each other?"
Friend: "I hope so!"

Checked out the Hustler store late, late one night after a failed trip to the Le Sex Shoppe in Old Town.

It's very touristy - they have a lot of apparel - t-shirts, jeans, pants, shorts, skirts, etc. . . stuff you can wear outside of the bedroom with "Hustler" emblazoned on it.

I found their lingerie section to be lacking. . . isn't that where foreplay starts? Anywhoo. . . I was disappointed. I would think that this store would have a bigger selection.

They had bachelorette party gag gifts and favors, games of the naughty kind, penis mints, etc. that were minor and not too intimidating. . . then they had their toys - your regular dildos and vibrators, anal play stuff, masturbators, harnesses, etc. . . and then stuff I'll leave only to your imagination. . . that goes where and is used WHAT and HOW?!! :o) Let's just say a few of those were interesting to look at. . . I stood there, puzzled with the object(s) in my hands.

Hustler has all sorts of DVDs. .. I'm sure you could find your fetish.

The service was a little lacking - considering we were pretty much the only customers, and we looked absolutely lost, not to mention under age. . . I'm surprised they didn't help us and then shuffle us on out of there.

okay this will be short and sweet (thats what he said!)
but seriously i have been here a few times to get gifts and bachelorette party stuff and its clean and the staff will talk to you about all types of gadgets and gizmos that you might not have even known existed (there has to be one you havent heard of right)
the prices dont seem bad although i dont comparison shop for this kind of stuff so i cant be a hundred percent sure.
they card you which i think is very responsible and its not one of the dark, creepy, stinky sex shops so i give it two thumbs UP!

The Hustler Cafe has great Boston Cream Pie. I'm serious. I also had a mocha that was too sweet. Should have gotten a latte. But yeah my friend ordered another slice of the pie after having some of mine.

I've graduated from buying kinky outfits to their regular apparel. Cool witty shirts because 'relax, its just sex..'

halloween outfits were cute too, but a lil on the pricey side. no way i could afford those wings....but i would have looked like a real victoria's secret angel!

this store is not just a sex shop, it has all sorts of clothing and toys. i was kind of offended when i was carded to go to the xxxx shop though! its all good. i'd like to appear young for as long as possible.

My main complaint is that it is so bright and sanitary. Call me weird, but it just feels wrong to look at clit clamps in such a glowing, sterile environment. Oh and all the windows! Makes me paranoid.

BUT it's open till 2 with a coffee bar. We're contemplating studying there. Cheerful employees bordering overzealous.

So we were looking for small cheap trashy items to put in a pinata... there weren't a lot of options for that. Sooo if you're in the same position, try elsewhere.

Parking behind the store.

Confession: I've never needed lube, I use spit. But sometimes you want you and your lady to go to a quote un quote "taboo" store to check stuff out and by stuff I mean dildos, anal beads, cuffs, crazy dominatrix gear and of course shaft and ball separators.

This place is fun to go and laugh and not take sex and life so seriously. Its clean, its bright, and the staff could not be nicer.

Remember how when Charlie Brown listens, I think it's when a teacher or an otherwise authoritative figure speaks to him, it all comes out in gibberish?  "Woh wah wah woh."  Something like that.  Well, that happened to me at the Tiki last night while I was piss drunk.

"Woh wah wah woh wah wah woh woh, Frank?"

"Uh-huh."

"Woh woh woh wah wah woh wah."

"Woh wah wah woh wah vibrator woh wah Hustler store."

"Wah woh vibrator too!"

My eyelids jutted open as if I'd been injected with adrenaline.  Off we went to the Hustler store.

So the girls went to the vibrator section like hound dogs on a fresh scent -- no, they were like some migratory animals instinctively traveling in the direction of the GIANT FUCKING WALL OF VIBRATORS.  Jesus creeping shit, a wall of fucking vibrators!  The adjacent wall had more vibrators and fake vaginas.  All types of vaginas.  Black vaginas, white vaginas, "asian" vaginas, hairless vaginas, small vaginas, vaginas with attached anus, tiny headless women curled like fetuses with vaginas, vagina stew, vagina gumbo, vagina sandwiches.  You get the point.

The pornography.  Oh boy, the pornography.  I won't get into the pornography.  Let's just say there are rows of DVDs much like the music aisles at a music store but with words like fist, chubby, and gaping sprinkled among them.  Yeah, nothing weird, nothing that I saw at least, all tame, and I was inspecting them all carefully.  

A definite must visit, not so much for guys, it leaves you feeling incredibly frustrated.

A while back ago, I went out with my best friend in Hollywood.  We weren't really feeling the place we went to, so we left.  She turns to me and says, "My vibrators broken and I need to buy a new one.  Do you think we can stop by the Hustler store?"
"Sure," I said, "but let's get a hot dog first."
Just then she turns to me and asks, "Do you have a vibrator?"
"No," I respond.
"OMG," she exclaims.  "If you buy me a hot dog, I'll buy you a vibrator."
And the rest is history.

This place has lots of fun, non-PG stuff to choose from.  Recently, I went back with a couple of friends to search for a new V (the one my best friend bought, um, ran out of batteries...yeah).  The sales people were so helpful.  They really have to know the product that they're selling.  Whatever question I asked, sales lady knew the answers to.

This place is super, but here's some friendly advice:  Make sure that you keep a sufficient amount of money in the meter.  Hollywood meter people are EVIL.  The first time I went I got two tickets:  one for not having a license plate in front, and another for the meter running out.  Plus, don't forget to turn your wheels to the curb.  I guess they get you for that as well.  Maybe the meter people should go inside this place so they're not as bitter.

This is the PF Chang's of toy shops.

Touristy, family friendly, clean, a tad corny. But hey who am I to define anyone else's sex life right?

Remember Elimidate and 5th Wheel and all those corny dating shows? It's exactly how it is on the shows - lots of Hustler apparel items, "sexy" underthings (sexy is used very loosely .. their items seem very fake pornish and not hot), videos, and toys. It seems like someone watched a mainstream porn and decided to take those elements and make a sex store.  Oh wait. who am I kidding. I'm complaining about a corny porn store that derived from corny porn.

Points for being big and bright though. Great for new couples, teenagers, and mid age housewives that blush at the thought of anal beads.

I bought my most favoritist porn ever here: Runaway Midget starring Bridget the Midget. It has become a true family favorite and holiday classic and thanks to Hustler I call it mine.

They also have a great selection of sex toys (or so I hear, I have no idea what sex is or why toys would factor in), lingerie (you mean there's more to bed time than a baggy t-shirt?) and lubes (I only know of Jiffy Lube), so for those of you on the hunt for something fun, give this place a go and then hop across the street to the Rainbow and check out all the guys who never let the 80's hair band years go! hee hee

I was here for the coffee.

Can't bring myself to admit to anything other than searching for that elusive porn title. (see my Spanky's review: http://www.yelp.com/bi...). That's the truth!

I'm definitely not there for the many assortments of vibrators, skimpy revealing outfits, or their dildos (the funniest thing is that they posted signs stating it's illegal for them to provide manual or instructions on how to use a dildo!)

I'm definitely not there for the expensive porns selections of many various categories. Although I was in several sections for quite a long time searching for that one title. My buddy was there with me on the other side looking for gag gifts.

There's parking in the back with an underground parking underneath the store. A cool place to shop for these adult entertainment stuffs with a little cafe right next to the store.

If I wasn't drinking the coffee, I would have continue to search for that one title. Once I saw the shrink wrap magazine of Hustler, it bought back a lot of memories.

Hmmm....yeah, the good times!

This place is craziness and I love it!  

There's a little underground parking behind the store and you go in the little elevator up a level to the cafe... the Hustler cafe... and up a small bit of stairs is the store!

They have so much stuff in this store!  I love looking at all the shirts and reading what mayhem they have on the front.. they're hilarious... There's jewelry... toys... lingerie... trinkets... glassware... strange rotating shelves... I love this place.. I always make the stop any time I'm in LA...

You need a little token from the cafe to get into the bathroom though... but they have a bunch of interesting books to read in the cafe... and good drinks =)  

I never leave this place empty handed hehehe... Relax... it's just sex !

The cafe is the reason i come here.

Ask them to make a minty nipple. It's brilliant.

Nothing more than a good laugh from wall to wall sex toys and paraphanelia. And they do have a LOT of stuff pertaining to sex and seduction. Do people seriously use all this crap on themselves just to get off?

Pure smut and cheesiness is all I can say. Overpriced items too. I'm sure your friends from out of town will get a kick out of stopping by here to take some pictures. And yes for one thing, it's a fun place to browse and maybe stop by the coffee shop but c'mon....seriously????

Hey, at least you know every girl that shops here is a freak ;-)

"Relax...it's just sex"

I love that slogan.  Especially when it comes over the loud speaker just after some guy reminds you to put quarters in your meter and turn your wheels to the curb.  OH!  Was he really talking about my car?  I thought those were euphemisms....oops.  My mistake.

After a night of some drinks, my friend and I decided that we needed to get the new year started right.  And we agreed that the way to start it right was to get new vibrators, much to the delight of another male friend.  What he thought was to be entertainment and insight apparently was more traumatic and disappointing as the selection for male toys was, well, non-existent.  

Big selection of vibrators.  I mean big in more ways than one too.

Let's just say I'm satisfied with my purchase.

Basically, this store is a little more boring than the ones that I have been too.

This store didn't get their minus one star because they were boring or anything, but they got their minus one star for not checking me and my friend when we were walking into the adult section with my friend mom.

We were clearly just turning 21 and they didn't even care or shit like that.

I like this place because you don't feel all dirty going in here but that's about it.

If you're really looking for sex toys and a great selection of DVD's I wouldn't come here. Not only that it's overpriced.

The only reason why you go to Hustler is because it's trendy.

Um, they don't sell nipple tassels.  And, in case you too are on a nipple tassel search, neither does the Pleasure Chest or A Touch of Romance.  
So, minus one star for that.
Minus another for being unbearably lame and yet not having adorably kitschy  sequined nipple tassels.
Minus another for being over-priced.

But, I will give a star back for um, Courtney Love in the People Vs. Larry Flynt?  Hmm, not really.

The Hustler Store is basically what Britney Spears is to Madonna.  And I prefer Madonna.

Larry Flynt presents his enterprise in a classy way.

The Hustler Store in Hollywood was one of the places that bred my fascination with LA. You never would know that sex could breathe over that many square feet, because really you would never want a person that big to land on your face - but this place is not bad.

It's a clean place to indulge in sex, seduction and everything in between. They have everything from penis ice cube makers to really cool Hustler gear.

You won't mind this place if you don't take yourself too seriously, because at the end of the day... it's just sex!

(I think that might be someone's catchphrase...)
