Seasoned sex expert, Bobby Box has been tapped by COTR, Inc. to come on board as their product educator and ambassador to their family of sex toy brands.

Box’s extensive credits as a sex journalist over the past decade include writing for publications like THEM, Elle, Billboard, Daily Beast, AskMen, and The Advocate. He is the former Contributing Editor at Playboy, where he also held the position of Playboy Advisor, and currently writes the popular sex column, “Gay Sex Ed,” at Grindr.

Coming out as queer halfway through his career, Box witnessed firsthand just how little sex education is available for the LGBTQ+ community. Recognizing this, he made it his life’s work to provide well-reported information to better educate the community on all things sex.

COTR founder and CEO Alicia Sinclair Rose stated that Box’s proven dedication to spreading sexual education makes him an invaluable addition to the company. “Bobby’s values and goals perfectly align with everything that we stand for at COTR, and I couldn’t be happier to have him on our team,” she said. “I can’t wait for our retail partners and the legions of fans of our products to gain insight from our new Brand Ambassador and Product Educator!”

In addition, beyond the internationally renowned publications to which Box has contributed, he also has amassed a large audience through his own social media channels becoming a recognized, respected voice and authority on sex in the community. Audiences have further enjoyed him as the co-host of Bad in Bed: The Queer Sex podcast, during which he and fellow journalist, friend, and frequent COTR education contributor, Gabrielle Kassel interviewed industry experts on lesser-known subjects in the sexual space, like sex and disability, and purity culture.

Along the way, Box also represented a number of brands in the sexual space as an ambassador, educating audiences about products and teaching workshops both online and off. His passion for education and “unabashed affinity for butt stuff” led him to COTR, Inc.

“For a long time, I have been a fan of b-Vibe and COTR’s overarching goal of promoting sex positivity and inclusivity through its pleasure products,” Box said. “I am thrilled to join forces with this team and take our mission to the next level.”
