Sexx University

When people think hollywood, they tend to think about the sexy elements of film and the potentially seedy underbelly. I’m guessing most tourists who come here would be psyched to get a sexy souvenir but not all of them are going to be thrilled to be browsing t-​shirts across the aisle from dvds and 3 ft long dildos ala Hustler.
Enter Sexx university. I was walking down Melrose the other day and when I saw the sign for this store I thought it was going to be an actual bookstore that focused on all things sex like Grand Openings (RIP) or Good Vibrations. When I asked, I was told that it was assumed that at this point in time we should be finished with out education. touché!
Instead, I found a cute concept store. It’s set up like a college bookstore so you can get all sorts of apparel and accessories from polo shirts to tanktops to underwear emblazoned with the «university» logo. Whether you’re a collar popping fratboy bro or someone who wants something sexy but not overly risqué, they probably have something for you. They also have cute little personalized diplomas that you get with your purchase and a backdrop where you can get your picture taken in front of a bucolic north east looking university backdrop.
so yeah, this is a cute place. the clothing all seemed well made, the store was super clean, organized and well lit (it really did remind me of a college bookstore) I think it is an awesome alternative to other adult stores if you’re a tourist who wants to leave LA with something sexy but not too sexy and are afraid to venture into the tattoo parlors or other adult stores. I do wish that they upped the university ante a little further by having books or dvds (cause hey, sex education is really a never ending thing) but it’s a neat concept. the staff was also super friendly which i really liked since i think there’s kind of an unwritten law that if you have a storefront on Melrose you don’t have to be super friendly.
