SEXPO 2011 a huge sucess this year

People came from far and wide to attend what can only be described as the ultimate celebration of the sexually liberated in South Africa. This year’s SEXPO held at Gallagher Estate drew crowds from all walks of life and offered them a variety of sensual and sexual entertainment and goods.

By Sunday afternoon, more than 61 000 people had made their way through the various halls of products and entertainment ranging from decadent lingerie to the downright naughty guilty pleasures.

Some of the highlights of the weekend included the amateur strip shows where a few brave SEXPO goers bared all in front of the crowd. Former Miss Nude Australia Miss Suzie Q and her partner Toby J delivered a sensual aerial acrobatic show while the tattooed rock chick Michelle “Bombshell” McGee left many SEXPO goers slack-jawed and entertained with her hardcore pole dancing routine.

Another firm favourite of this year’s exhibition, Australian hypnotist Mark Anthony’s show HypNaughty brought out the hidden naughty side of crowd participants. “I love performing at SEXPO and the South African audiences are always fun and very open minded,” said Anthony.

While some couples got hitched at the Vegas-style chapel.Every year the Reverend Daniel Brits looks forward to the Sexpo.It’s the time of year when the 58-year-old minister from Cape Town gets to marry South Africans in a place few would imagine – the country’s biggest sex convention.

Brits runs the Love Chapel at the Sexpo and has been part of the convention since it was first established six years ago. "I already have two couples who have booked with me for Saturday (today) – it’s very exciting,” said Brits. “One couple is of the same sex and the other is of different sex (sic). The nice thing about marrying people at the Sexpo is that I marry open-minded couples who are of the new generation,” he said.

Although he says he isn’t perturbed, he has been harshly criticised for taking his ministry to Sexpo.

Other visitors got a taste of the latest trends in lingerie, adult toys, products ranging from massage oils to decadent food and drinks and all in an environment that said, “Hey, it’s OK, everyone does it and there’s no shame in enjoying sex and sensuality.”
