Amsterdam Sex Museum
Without a doubt, this is one of the more curious museums that you will ever visit. Certain sections - if not the museum itself - are not for the easily offended. There is another similar attraction not far away - the Erotic Museum - in case this place doesn't completely satisfy you. Among the collection are various pieces from around the world and representing different eras of history; porcelain figurines, carvings, prints and paintings all sharing a central erotic theme. Examples of all sorts of erotica are displayed, as well as various devices which are sure to spark your imagination. Upstairs is the Fetish Gallery. This area is definitely for the open-minded - or those who wish to be. Should you care to, you can contemplate the works of modern erotic art from the vantage point of a phallic 7-foot vibrating chair. Those who prefer a little more privacy may choose to avail themselves of the private individual viewing rooms where you can choose from a variety of erotic films. By the way, the museum is not regarded with the snickers of early adolescence. Once again, the pragmatic nature of Amsterdam simply presents the "facts of life" as it has collected them over the years.
