The Allure of the Forbidden

Why do we want what we cannot have? What is it about the forbidden that makes us want it all the more? It’s a story we all know—the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden—the one that Eve just couldn’t resist even though she had every other pleasure available at her fingertips. There is something about being told that something is off-limits—whether by society, a parent, a lover, a boss—that makes it all the more desirable. It is part of the human condition to believe that the things or people we aspire to attain will make us feel happy, fulfilled and satisfied. Like the feeling of scratching an itch, endeavoring into taboo terrain can lead to initial feelings of elation, then relief and perhaps then, wanting to do it all over again or even push the boundaries even more. 


When it comes to consenting adults, a little permissible debauchery can be an intriguing proposition. After all, how can one truly know their limits without a little exploration? A safe space to delve into the taboo is a healthy way to tempt the forbidden and broaden one’s sexual horizons. One of the aspects of Heart + Honey we love most is that we provide a safe space for women and their partners to explore the latest and greatest products and technology in the adult space. Here’s a run down of some of our favorite “forbidden” activities and the products you need in your collection.  

1. The Forbidden Queen Bee Box

We must start with this all-encompassing treasure trove of forbidden fun! This single purchase box is chock full of forbidden allure, permissible debauchery and extravagance. Featuring a carefully curated assortment of erotic accoutrements, this box checks all the, well, boxes. Picture this beautiful package arriving at your door. As you excitedly dive into the contents you discover the following…a delightful Pomegranate Whipped Soap by Mangiacotti to bring with you in the shower and get the sensory experience started, a pair of whimsical cherry earrings featuring 925 sterling silver and stems plated in 18k gold to ignite your playful side, a box of rich and delicious milk chocolate covered cherries by Cape Cod Provisions to unleash the aphrodisiac properties of chocolate and get you in the zone, a sophisticated toy we affectionally call The Forbidden Zone that features 9 mind-blowing air pulse functions to take you to infinity and beyond, and perhaps the most forbidden of all, the Rear Assets Aluminum Plug by NS novelties and Intimate Earth Lubricant Foil. This is the box for you if you want to gently push the boundaries of your usual experience and test the waters of the forbidden. After all, how will you ever know what your boundaries are unless you push them a little?

5. Rianne S Kinky Me Softly Bondage Kit

Another option we love for the BDSM fans is the Kinky Me Softly Bondage Kit from Rianne S. Imagine awakening your kinky side with a little spicy adult playtime. Rianne S turned a beautiful purple handbag into a discreet naughty item for couple play with personally curated Kinky Me Softly Handbag Kit. The bag contains 7 exciting products for the BDSM curious couple and it’s the perfect and sophisticated start into that journey. Start by masking your partner's view with the Blindfold, then secure their wrists with the Adjustable Wrist Cuffs, their feet with the pair of Adjustable Ankle Cuffs that comes with 2 6 inch lengths of matching chain with quick release snap hooks. To further restrict your subs movements, connect the hand and ankle cuffs to the 12 inch Hog Tie restraint included in the Purple Kinky Me Softly Bondage Kit that also has quick release snap hooks. Your partner will thus be at your mercy and to really make your partner's excitement soar, titillate their nipples with the clamps and tease their erogenous areas with the little purple feather tickler. Spank your partner sensually and softly or punish them with the kinky mini 19 inch flogger whip.
