Sex Suburbia

My stay in Kentucky ended with a tour of the Labrot and Graham Distillery, set among the rolling hills that have made this state famous. The makers of the best bourbon in the world hire only 9 people, but boy do they know how to serve up a wonderful brew. From here, I headed into West Virginia -- a destination I'd been anticipating since I last visited here back the winter of 1999. I'm partial to bookstores and if you have enough time to spare and some luck, you'll have some really hot sex. I actually didn't have a great deal of time and that proved to work against me. Having said this, the Charleston suburb of Jefferson is something to behold. There are similar such towns around the USA (most notably in the suburbs of Denver, Saint Louis and Fort Worth) that seem to all but exist for the revenue brought in from the sex industry. Put it another way, Jefferson was clocked at 2.6 miles long when I drove from end to end, yet in those 2.6 miles I counted at least 7 adult businesses.

I first stopped in at one that appeared to be among the bigger businesses, Playmates Video (7027 MacCorkle). It was in reasonably good condition and the clerk behind the counter was more than willing to answer my questions. It was a Sunday afternoon and I had hoped the place would be hopping, but unless everyone took the bus it was dead. You pay $3 to enter the arcade area, but I didn't even try it -- there was no sound of running movies, much less the strains of some guy shooting his real time load.

Now the truly amazing feature about this establishment is the presence of an adult car wash! Yes, you read that correctly: an adult car wash. It wasn't operating during my visit, but the fellow insisted it would be up and running that evening. A sign indicated Wednesday night was the time for male car washers. I can only guess, but can't you just see these completely naked ladies running around your car with a bucket of soapy water, a sponge and rags, bending over and giving a whole new meaning to 'detailing'? Has anyone ever heard this one before? I sure hadn't.

Up the road a bit was the Adult Video Superstore (6901 MacCorkle) and this place advertised as open 24/7. I paid my $5 to purchase unlimited access to the arcade/mini theatre area and went in. A fairly large building, and the backroom area is larger than many bookstores I've been in. All the booths appeared to be working and there was a good variety of straight, gay and bi videos playing non-stop. All had doors that locked if you wanted privacy. Most booths had management-drilled gloryholes.

The crowd consisted of some pretty nasty looking men. I'm sorry guys, but I'm just being truthful. A couple looked depleted of vitamin C, a couple were about as frail as you can get without being malnourished, and a couple guys might have passed as relatively sexy bears. No one struck my fancy, though. Perhaps I was remembering all the deer-hunter dick I sucked off the last time I was in the state. Hoping the situation might change, I stayed around for 2 hours, but only duplicates of the already lovely crowd kept coming in.

My final stop in Jefferson was Crazy Mitch (6723 MacCorkle) which is the smaller of the shops I visited. It was busy in the retail area with some pretty old guys gathered around a video game. I decided that it wasn't worth the trip into the arcade and left.

You missed the schenley experience, and on your way to Pittsburgh, you missed Fritz The Cat bookstore? This has to be the busiest hottest cruise bookstore around! Not very clean, but hot men outnumber the trolls. Truckstop, trucker bar & strip club across the road. You get action from all of these locations, as well as a few hot locals, including some regulars that make the drive from Pittsburgh. Hit it on your way back home, you will not be disapointed.

No, I didn't miss the 'Schenley experience'. I wrote about it and how lame it was -- at least during my three visits. Others have written glowing remarks about the park, and some day maybe I'll have a similarly good time. As for Fritz the Cat, I did that bookstore some time back and would not rank it high on my list. Other stores in West Virginia are better in my opinion.
