This is the second part of our two-part interview with Zveotec’s founders about their new state-of-the-art strap on, Sen. To read part one of the interview, where we discuss the design and tech of Sen in detail, click here.
There are tons of people out there that love sex! We have people reading with many gender expressions and also a great BDSM audience. I was super excited to read about the feeling people have when wearing the toy. We love putting out more information on top toys for genderfluid people, as well as about the best toys for gender play. This toy looks like it is fantastic for these communities in addition to people into straight sex, lesbian sex, and more.
The ability to get sensations like the strap-on is a real penis is fascinating. Can you speak more to that?
We have an article lined up all about these possibilities and the gender question for Futurism Magazine. Make sure to check that out there soon; the journalist there is a specialist on gender fluidity. They are much more qualified than I am to comment on it, but I’ll give a brief overview here.
From everything we understand and have been given feedback on so far, SEN is really good for this. We don’t want to make any wild claims, but because of the connection between feedback and action, as explained above, we expect it can be a more profound experience than simply receiving pleasure from pegging. This has implications beyond play and a more powerful effect than just using a standard strap-on.
For lesbians, and heterosexual couples, and our queer friends, it’s an enhanced pegging experience and one that can connect partners more closely.
An important question is next. Sex educators are always talking about the safety of the materials and the cleaning of toys being considered and/or reviewed. What are the cleaning and maintenance requirements going to look like for this toy?
It’s fully waterproof. You can wash it under a tap. So far, the sensor housing design could go two ways, but in either case, the dildo is fully washable.
What are you most excited about relating to the launch of Sen?
We’re anticipating that people will freak the heck out!! “I can feel it; it’s not just a strap-on.” Plus, the feelings come on both ends. That’s exciting.
A common experience people have with strap-ons is that unexpected – or under-expected – shift in perspective. SEN should allow you to experience something like that again, but a lot more powerfully. We’re excited to see how that pans out in even more detail as time goes by.
Ok, so what everyone is wondering now. How can they pre-order a Sen, and what is the timeline for anticipated project completion here? Also, are you going to be on any crowdfunding websites?
We’re running the campaign organically, saving our customers the cost of crowdfunding sites and sparing them the restrictions on the actual sex content – which is pretty confusing when you’re trying to buy a sex toy, and all you get are videos of vegetables, suggestive vegetables!
The current target is mid-April, and as long as the latest mold samples are approved (it depends on whether the material is suitable for small batch production), then we think we’ll hit that mark.
To pre-order, head over to the website now.
Sen is available at the standard campaign price, which will hold until we shift into the final leg of the campaign – with the full video demo release.
There’s actually a limit to how many we can make on the first production run, so there’s a good chance they run out. If you get it early, it’s the best deal, and you won’t have to wait till the next factory order.
Additionally, the early bird discount codes have just expired, but we’ve set up a special one to run with this interview! The discount code for $15 off is GATEWAYS15 and valid until May 1st, 2021.
Any final thoughts?
Everyone must be screaming now. Does it have Bluetooth? Yes/maybe, if we are able to overfund by 100 orders (160 extra from where we are now), we’ll add Bluetooth. We’ve scheduled an announcement in our latest newsletter, and we’ll be updating the site with more information, including app functionality.
I’m also dying to talk about our next product. We’re not going to take pre-orders on it until Sen is delivered – purely because we think customers should have that assurance before we ask for another round of backing. But the prototype is here! If SEN completes the pegging experience, this device completes the chastity experience.
Thanks again for the interview; I am very excited to see everything as it progresses. This is a unique project that caught my attention in big ways, and I appreciate you taking the time to sit down with us. We are excited to continue supporting it!
