Lorals Inventor Melanie Cristol to Guest on Sunday's 'Sex Tech Connect'

LOS ANGELES — Online meetup event Sex Tech Connect (STC) will host Melanie Cristol, the founder and CEO of Brazen Goods, and the inventor of Lorals ultra-thin latex panties, for a webinar this Sunday, May 2, at 9 a.m. (PDT).

"Lorals create a layer between your partner’s mouth and nose and your vulva and anus during oral sex and rimming, and the opaque latex material provides additional stimulation to the clitoris and labia without skin-to-skin contact,” Cristol explained. “The super-stretchy, silky panties sculpt to your body’s curves, allowing your partner’s mouth and tongue to move fully. Lorals stay in place during oral sex and are designed to cover your vulva and anus the entire time."

"Please note that Lorals don't block STDs/STIs just yet," she added.

During Sunday's meetup, attendees will have the opportunity to speak directly to Cristol and to network with each other. The event will be recorded and subsequently posted online.

“We’re really excited to host Melanie,” said Maxine Lynn, adult industry attorney and co-founder of STC.  “She’s got so much entrepreneurial experience in developing a product and getting it to market. I’m sure she’ll be able to share a lot of insights that will be invaluable to others following in her footsteps in launching businesses in the adult industry.”

Following Sunday's webinar, the conversation will continue for an afterparty chat on Clubhouse.
