Founded in 2009, She Bop is an adult boutique specializing in non-toxic body-safe toys, exceptional books, and quality sensuality products. But we are more than a toy store — we are committed to sexual education and conscious business practices while also offering a comfortable and sex-positive environment. We value:
Empowerment
Sexual empowerment is for every body.
Exploration & Enjoyment
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to sex education or pleasure.
Community
We foster affirming, inclusive spaces where everyone can be themselves. We fight for equity in the adult industry.
Inclusivity
She Bop is female-friendly, not female-only. We celebrate all bodies, while recognizing there is more to equity than dildo skin tones.
We Bop
Since 2009, She Bop exists to support a diverse community with an emerging personal and social awareness of healthy sexuality as an important component to everyday life. This includes all varieties of personal identifiers such as gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, age, and marital status – whoever you are, as long as you are over 18, you are welcome in our store! (For those under 18, we highly recommend checking out Scarleteen.)
Our name (though gendered) was inspired by Cyndi Lauper’s message of sexual freedom in her '80s pop single titled “She Bop,” and we are committed to celebrating, empowering, and liberating the full spectrum of human sexual experience and gender identity.
From the products we carry to the way we talk about them, we strive to use gender-neutral pronouns as much as possible to avoid making assumptions about how our customers and their partners identify. We are more than happy to adjust our language to accommodate your pronouns – just let us know!
Community and Planet
She Bop is committed to continuous improvement and positive impact on our community.
We make eco-conscious choices
Our efforts towards a healthier planet include:
- Eco-friendly and sustainable materials
- Rechargeable toys
- Organic lubricants
- 100% recycled bags
- Recycling and reuse of packaging materials
We support local makers
We carry many handmade and locally-sourced sexuality products and make an effort to purchase other services we use such as our T-shirt and sticker printing and even our phone/internet and credit card processing services from Portland-area companies.
We are a community partner
She Bop is dedicated to promoting and supporting organizations focusing on healthy and safe sexuality, women's rights and LGBTQ+ rights, as well as other organizations and non-profits. We frequently partner with Portland's feminist and LGBTQ+ organizations, low-cost health clinics and college campuses, and are proud to have provided thousands of dollars in financial support through our We Give Back program as well as donations of gift certificates and goodie bags to fundraising events throughout the region.
Our community partners include: Q Center, SEI, North by Northeast Community Health Center, Call to Safety, Prism Health, Black & Beyond the Binary Collective, and Bradley Angle. Our staff regularly teach off-site sex education workshops to college students, LGBTQ+ youth, and local support groups.
Classes and Workshops
Through offering sexuality-focused educational classes and workshops at an affordable cost, She Bop helps keep our community sexually happy, healthy and informed.
Class topics include the G-spot, anal play, non-monogamy, communication, cunnilingus, BDSM, burlesque, rough sex, fellatio, rope bondage, and many more. In addition to in-house educators, we enlist local sexuality instructors such as Stella Harris, Ev'Yan Whitney, and Jessie Fresh.
In addition to classes, we also bring in speakers from around the country, including Sex Down South Conference co-founder Marla Renee Stewart, author and director Tristan Taormino, sex edu-tainer Dirty Lola, and blogger and author Kevin Patterson. See our events page for upcoming classes and events. If you are interested in teaching at She Bop, please send an email to [email protected].

After-Hours Parties
She Bop locations are available for private party reservations, beginning at 7 p.m. and ending at 9 p.m. The cost is $200 for up to 10 people, including a $50 initial deposit. If you would like to have more than 10 participants, the cost is an additional $25 per person (with a limit of 16 attendees). Your reservation comes with a She Bop Host who will provide an introduction to our products and how to use them (a sex toys 101 so to speak), personal shopping assistance, and answers to all your juiciest questions! Email [email protected] to inquire about in-person parties.
Zoom Parties: We also offer a private Zoom version with a virtual tour of our shop and 90 minutes of our host's time. Zoom parties cost $150 for up to 10 people and $15 for each additional person over 10. Email [email protected] to inquire about Zoom parties.
Before & After-Hours Binder Fittings for Those Under 18
Although our shop is 18+ during regular business hours, we are able to accommodate binder fittings for teens with a pre-arranged appointment, as long as they are accompanied by a legal parent or guardian. Please send us an email at [email protected] or fill out our contact form to request an appointment. Let us know which dates and times you are available and we will check staff availability to schedule the visit. A legal parent or guardian will be required to sign a consent form upon arrival.
