Sex museums

Amsterdam

“Temple of Venus”

“Temple of Venus” in Amsterdam is definitely a King of sex-museums in the world. It is situated near Central Railway Station and was opened in 1985. Every year more than half of a billion people visit this museum. Underwear, literature, photos, movies, pictures and making love bodies of people – everything there. Three floors of sex artefacts, mostly XVIII and XIX century is very interesting but mostly innocent composition. But on the way to exit there is a small room with a tablet, which is saying “Some of exhibits in this room may seem to you offensive. Enter this room for your own fear and risk. Complaints are not accepted.” And you know everything is truth. Room is full of photos, for which definition “mind-blowing” seems too soft.

“Erotic museum”

It is situated in a very center of famous “red lights” section. There are two main sights. First one is TV room, in which chairs look like toadstools and on all walls there are TV screens, which broadcast all the time porn Disney cartoons. Second one – obscene pictures by John Lennon, which he gave as a wedding present to Yoko Ono. The rest exposition is bigger than in “Temple of Venus” – five floors instead of three, but not so varied. Pictures, photos and big collection of erotic game cards.

“MoSex”

Someone called Daniel Glitch opened this museum in 2002 as “devoted to history, evolution and culture meaning of human sexuality”. Exposition here is much more structured than in other museums, and in fact is more educational. Separate rooms devoted to porn, erotic, BDSM, homosexualism and other variants and aspects of sex life. By the way, American porn kings were ready to sponsor this museum, but Glitch refused money. Unlike sex shops, which have allocation limits, “MoSex” is situated almost near the school and church. For this it has problems with religious and social organizations. Hurry up, while it is not closed!
