Berman Innovations Announces TEA Sponsorship

LOS ANGELES — Berman Innovations, creator of POP by The Semenette®, has announced its sponsorship of the 8th Annual Transgender Erotic Awards, to be held Sun., Mar. 6 at the Avalon in Hollywood. 

Stephanie Berman, CEO of Berman Innovations, said, “This is our second year sponsoring the TEAs and the Best FTM Scene trophy. I'm always happy to support a great organization and event and am thrilled POPDildo™ has been positively embraced by the FTM community. We congratulate all the nominees and winners, and look forward to presenting a POPDildo™ to the winner this year.”

Kristel Penn, marketing and editorial director for Grooby Productions, said, “We're so grateful to have Berman Innovations back as a sponsor of the Best FTM Scene category. We're excited to see how POPDildo™ can be used in future scenes by our winner, and how this innovative product can inspire others."

The Semenette® recently teamed up with German pleasure products manufacturer Fun Factory to introduce its second iteration, POP by The Semenette® / POPDildo™. The Semenette® and POPDildo™ allow partners to mimic traditional intercourse through their proprietary inner tubing and pump system, complete with ejaculation — which sets them apart from both traditional dildos and “party”-style ejaculating toys.
