Our collection is carefully selected and there are testers on the shelves for you to touch and explore. We have designed the shop to be welcoming to people of all genders, orientations and experience levels. Shopping in our retail store can feel very different that your typical sex toy store. EtB is an active supporter of many local and national organizations that promote and support access to healthcare, LGBTQ causes, gender and racial equality, and reproductive justice.Įarly to Bed is owned by Searah Deysach and you can reach her directly at She'd love to hear from you, really.Įarly to Bed is an independent, queer woman-owned business. We offer workshops on a wide-range of topics and we give sex-positive talks and lectures at colleges, social groups, and community events. Since opening the shop, EtB has not only provided sex toys and information to countless people, but also has worked hard to spread our sex-positive message everywhere we can. We help people from all walks of life find toys, books, accessories and information to help them have happier, healthier erotic lives. Our shop is staffed by people who take their sex toys seriously and are able to honestly answer questions about toys and sex in general. Knowing that many people were uncomfortable in “traditional” adult stores, we felt that by creating a sex-positive, woman/trans-friendly shop, more people would feel comfortable taking control of their sexual selves and finding new ways to experience pleasure with their partners and on their own. We felt that Chicago was in dire need of a safe, welcoming place where women (and people of all genders) could shop for quality sex toys. In September 2001 Early to Bed opened shop on Chicago’s north side. It is our mission to spread the good word about positive sexuality to as many people as we can through our shop, website, and various outreach events. In our comfortable and safe environment, we provide quality sex toys and accessories as well as access to the most current information about sex and sexuality. At Early to Bed we are committed to helping people of all genders and orientations explore their sexuality to the fullest.
