Museum of Sex

This place did not live up to the hype.
For starters, the Unilocal coupon was not honored. Second, the exhibits were pretty lame.
I guess I could say that the gift shop was pretty good, but other than that, avoid going here.

Come here if you want to waste your money. This place is trash. Overrated in every way possible. They steal money from zealous tourists that don’t know any better and anyone else who’s made the mistake of coming here. It is all hype. If you happen to be in the area with some time to kill and money to throw away, stop by here and do it. You won’t find a better place.

Maybe I’m a perv, but I had fun!
A guy I was dating took me here on a outing and it was good times. Obviously not family friendly (which is great because… ugh, children! They ruin everything!) with numerous exhibits. There’s a lot to take in ranging from artwork, sculpture, moving picture, history and so on. I did enjoy the interactive carnival themed attractions, but didn’t get to try the bouncy castle because it wasn’t in service. :(I did have a good time watching my date climb «Grope Mountain» and grab on to assorted boobs and butts while trying his best not fall. He succeeded!
When you’re done with your visual sex romp there’s even a SEXY ASS bar you can lounge out at!
…or be like me and commence obnoxious PDA with your date lol. Oh we got free croissants too!

Terrible, terrible museum. You wouldn’t think a museum dedicated to sex would be so incredibly boring. The kinesthetic campground was totally lame. You couldn’t really do much and the exhibits weren’t as interactive as I imagined. I was excited to do the bouncy house, but that cost extra (apparently, it didn’t use to). This place was a complete snooze fest and a waste of time. More interesting to peruse the store.

Love it here! So much fun, so many interesting facts and cutesy little gadgets for sale. Fun after work experience with a significant other (be warned, some exhibits are interactive, don’t bring your mom, lol)

Cool idea, but it felt short for me. I got the 2 for $ 26 on Groupon… you still have to pay about $ 3 in tax when you get there.
There was a sex shop, which was fun to browse, but everything was very overpriced.
The first floor was the «hardcore» section — basically porno through history.
The second floor was «interactive» — you could go in tents and do some activities. It was very «eh»…I didn’t wanna lay down in a tent and practice sex positions. no thanks: P maybe if I was 18.
Next there was animals. It was ok to learn about sex in nature…
My favorite was the last floor where you see different devices, toys, etc. throughout history and what their uses were. I.E. chastity belts, dolls, WW2 condoms, weird stuff.
We didn’t do the bounce house.
Like I said, if I was 18, I probably would have gotten a kick out of this place, but where I am right now in life, this didn’t wow me.
Also…the bar was not open, which was disappointing.
Save your money, I think. Maybe go to another museum or buy a sex book if you want to learn more.

Interesting exhibit. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was entertaining.
The interactive level wasn’t great, but there are several floors to entertain you.
The boob bounce house was surprisingly more fun than I thought it would be.
Note: Unilocal check in promo no longer works.

As far as museums go this one makes me hard! jk (I couldn’t resist)
But seriously… its really clean and well organized, the exhibits are as fascinating as they are tantalizing. Sex is a big part of life and we all owe it to ourselves and our partners to learn as much as we can about the subject IMO.
This is definitely a MUST GO SEE.
Oh and make sure to ask about Student Discounts for tickets.

I went to Museum of Sex while visiting NYC. There are student discounts for admission. The museum was interesting IMO. I don’t want to tell what’s inside of exhibits to spoil things for first timers. There are multiple floors inside the museum. There was a bar inside but it was closed during my visit (check hours). My favorite part of the museum was jumping in a boob pit (lol). It was definitely an experience jumping and getting knocked around by triple X air inflated boobs. It’s an additional charge for MOS boob pit (it’s timed). The Museum of Sex store has some cool/​interesting things to purchase. I had a fun time exploring Museum of Sex. I give Museum of Sex a 3.5 rating.

Being told to leave the room when people were kissing on television, but being allowed to see people blow up to pieces, was confusing growing up. Thus, the Museum of Sex was a great way to learn more about the birds and the bees, having so little knowledge on the subject.
Upon entering we were guided through the gift shop (what are weird cucumber looking things?) to the front counter to purchase our tickets. The staff seems completely unorganized. After dealing with them, we entered and began our journey.
The first section deals mainly with the history of naughty behavior. From how boys in Western Europe would travel to Eastern Europe to become men, to the first erotic movies came to be. Nudity galore, mother would be shocked. In seriousness though it’s nothing really shocking if you know history and been exposed to similar content before.
The next area has you explore your own sexual side with some interactive exhibits. This was the most interesting section in my opinion. While some exhibits did nothing, some were fun and cool.
Next up were the sexual and mating habits of animals around the world. While some things are pretty common knowledge, I did learn a lot of new and intriguing things. Apparently some animals kill their lovers after mating, and not just my friend Tamara.
The museum ends with its infamous large nipple bounce room. Long line, and lots of people get dejected because they only take credit cards. I would say just like the entire museum it’s just a one time experience. Do it, get it over, don’t consider it again, and forget it over time, like that one night during my junior year spring break.
In the end, you can basically find most of this information available in many other resources and media. You don’t need to come here for it. I guess it’s an experience and something to do, but overall it’s not that special. It’s only shocking if you’re a prude tourist. Though those cucumber things do make great paperweights, I got one for mother.

A fun and educational museum for adults who are looking for an evening of naughty intrigue.
You enter through the gift shop which in itself is a destination. It is basically an upscale sex shop with all manner of toys and paraphernalia.
Then, downstairs is the ticket counter, coat check, and bar. The bar serves beer, wine, and delicious shots. You can pick from 4 different flavors or you can be extra adventurous and get the jello shots in the shape of a breast.
The museum itself has 4 different exhibits and focuses on history, animals, interactive area, and toys. Then there is an optional boob bouncy house.
This was so much fun and you won’t regret the visit. The only frustration was the place was too small to support the crowd. Lines got long and sometimes it was hard to see the exhibit pieces. I would recommend not checking your coat since that took forever. But otherwise go nuts.
I also commend them for having so many helpful staff members walking around to make sure you are going the right way.
I would definitely go back

Let’s talk about S E X
I’ve been twice now and it’s been not only educational, but fun. Fun? What? Ew, gross. Sex.
The museum of sex talks about what everybody talks about just usually not so openly. Ever wonder how x-​fetish got started? Find out. What to jump in a bunch of inflatable boobs? This is the place.
But on a more serious note, I think the exhibits are well thought out and presented in such a way that makes the experience more than just a stroll through a museum. Ex. They had an exhibit about our sense and sex. In that, there was a small tent full of mirrors. Sounds weird, but the point was to see yourself entirely exposed and other things, but you’ll see for yourself when you go check it out.

Esperava muito mais! Apesar de interativo, o museu é pequeno e há pouco conteúdo interessante. Não vale o preço! A lojinha, em compensação, é bem legal! Há muito mais coisas interessantes para fazer na região na região do Flatiron (Madison Square Park, Eataly, Adorama, PhotoManhattan, etc.). Não perca tempo!

I’ve heard about this museum figured it would be fun, interesting to check out sadly it was not the case.
U walk into the store area then u make your way downstairs for your ticket purchase they have a lounge area below with a bar good idea but not fun to stick around it was like 100 degrees in their so hot & uncomfortable.
We got a round of Stella beers not bad while waiting to get our tickets.
Headed upstairs to check out the store while we finished our beers, didn’t work since u are not allowed to drink upstairs I get it but wasn’t too thrilled to have to head back down oh well we finished our drinks & headed to the museum.
Where do I begin? First floor had to do with nature? Ahh not quite calling my attention next was sex in the animal world ok I guess, followed by some old pics, porn & crap to read.
Last floor had old sex toys half interesting.
Final stop was the boobies bouncy house fun for like half a second way too short I don’t know why they charge extra for that? Should be included in the over priced admission, checking in thought Unilocal saves u $ 3 bucks.
Once done we headed to the store see what they had plenty of overpriced merchandise pretty ridiculous prices I did get sucked in since I thought the Penis pasta would be hilarious to cook that tiny box was $ 11 & change w tax wtf ?? Ugh only got it because it was the only thing that really caught my attention in this place.
The museum was disappointing, one floor is more boring than the next.
If u have nothing to do & want to kill an hour id say maybe check it out but you are really not missing much if u decide to skip it.

I am torn between a 2.5 or a 3.5, so I went for the 3. It was kind of unsatisfying like an average night of. well since this is for a sex museum, I can be blunt, like an average night of sex. It was unique and I did learn some interesting things about the history of sex/​porn industry and animal mating habits, but the «interactive» exhibit was really bizarre and the bounce house, I didnt even get to it. We waited 30 mins, sweating mind you, and then found out that they wanted $ 2 more per person (thanks for the heads up) and then to wait in another line. I was over it at that point and just wanted to leave by that point. So much for the big finish.
I recommend it for something different and somewhat educational. Dont come in with high expectations and you will be ok. And also know about the extra fee ahead of time. Shop on the bottom was quite cute though and that had no entry fee! Frankly, thats the best part!

Oh man, the amount of comments and likes I got when I checked in here… and… to be honest that wasn’t the first time I had been to MoSex. My first time *insert giggles* was several years ago, before I discovered the magic of Unilocal.I was also still in college so add that for delight.
This time, my best friend was visiting from out of town so we decided to do touristy things. She had never been to MoSex when she lived here so we decided to spend our afternoon roaming around the museum and yes, going for a bounce in the infamous boobie room.
The exhibits at the museum were so much better the first time around. The tent room was meh, and the animal room was factually interesting, but was really just words painted upon the wall. The first time I had gone to the museum, I don’t recall the name of the exhibit but there were loads of artifacts from 1800’s gynecology which looked straight out of a horror movie. It was awesome. And terrifying.
The bounce room was a ton of fun, even though you’re in there for like less than a minute. We brought our phones in and hopped around taking dumb videos and silly pictures.
The overall layout of the museum could be a bitter better, more signage and the admission area is so small and coupled with the bar. I got a beer at the bar before we went into the museum, but there were no signs that I couldn’t bring it up or was told when purchasing it, so I literally had to chug it before going in.

One word: Horrible.
Came here with my boyfriend to see what the hype was about.
Such boring exhibits, the only thing we enjoyed seeing were old pornography videos. Everything after that got weird and confusing. The air was thick, it was very hot, and the exhibits were quick and lacked content. One exhibit was literally pictures of different animals and pictures of them mating and pictures of DNA and genes and what not.
There was a touching exhibit (interactive, which I usually love but it was useless and nothing happened when you touched the «art» and left me disappointed).
The only fun part was the titty bounce and that only lasted a minute and 30 seconds (we had to wait in line for like 20 minutes). So if you’re willing to pay for the ticket ($ 18 + $ 2 for the bounce), seeing a few quick, boring exhibits, stand in a long line, sweating, this place is for you.

I attended a fund raiser for AIDS Service Center. I had no idea the museum would have such a comprehensive display of all things sexual. A history of sex, variety of sex, enhancements to and protections during sex! There was much more. I was so overwhelmed I left in a purple haze!
I would not suggest this museum if you are shy or modest. It is strange some of the items people linger over to view. As I said I’m all for supporting non-​profits. I know that ASC is a very well operated non– profit. I was there to show my support.
I do have to admit I wanted to go see the museum once at least. It is very entertaining, educating, and interesting how they displayed the subject matter. Very well presented in my opinion. But then, you need to go to judge for yourself! Don’t be shy!

For my 400^th review… Ok, you got me! I was curious about this place. I saw it on the map and I had to come check it out! I went here really thinking it was a nice museum! I found out later it was a store of sex toys and a museum on the bottom floor but you have to have admission that I didn’t really want to pay. Maybe, next visit…
The store was a fancy high class sex shop with all people of all ages coming in. Surprising?! I was too embarrassed to take photos but I was so tempted. They did have security so I decided against it. The store was more of a touristy kind of thing to do I guess to come but I really did like the fancy new toys or things they sold. They did offer professional instruction books and clothing with their logos. I may think about getting some… LOL I have gone to the stores in the Bay Area and theirs was not as fancy as these or as expensive. They do have an online store if you want to buy but embarrassed to at the store. Entertaining indeed so I would still say, if you’re in the area, pass by here! ;D

I’m torn– kinda want to give it more like a 2.5 or a 3.5, but not more than. 3.5. Here’s why:
Price– $ 17 for entry is kinda steep seeing as this is a very small venue win at max, an hour worth of displays to view.
Entertainment — I know way more about dolphin orgies than I care to know. Some stuff you just can’t unsee.
Learning — ummmm, I did learn quite a lot about sex solicitation and and stag films from back in the day. Everything else I feel like I could learn for free by watching a couple of Netflix documentaries or Discovery channel.
Attractions — apparently these get changed out. I didn’t get the room of inflatable boobies, but I did get the weird fetish selfie mirror. After 16 attempts I finally got a decent picture.
I agree with other Unilocalers, if you have $ 20 to blow and free time go visit. If you’re expecting a mind-​bowing experience you might be disappointed.

MoSex, please! (see what I did there??)
The Museum of Sex seemed more like a tourist attraction than anything. You can check-​in for a few bucks off admission or find deals on Groupon for cheap. The entrance through the gift shop was a little confusing as there was a lot going on and it wasn’t clear as to where the exhibits started. As Maggie G stated, it’s pretty dark throughout most of the museum, but I guess it sets the mood.
The exhibits were pretty educational and interactive. Lots and lots of nudity (DUH) plus a bounce house full of boobs for $ 2 extra. The gift shop has something for EVERYONE. Books, games, toys, whips, chains, condoms, herbs… I can go on. Be sure to take your time here if you want to spice things up.
MoSex is worth the visit for sure… but that’s about it. Cross it off of your list of places to go in NYC and keep it moving.

Maybe I asked the wrong employee but the one person I asked about something specific (not going to say obviously) had no idea about anything and was very unhelpful. So not what I was expecting in this museum of sex.
I would have loved to purchase some items but when the staff don’t seem to know what they are talking about, well then my confidence in their product has just plummeted.
I gave them two stars insteAd of one because they do have some really cool items there. I didn’t venture into the museum but I checked out their books.
I think this place is great to come browse and even purchase items. Don’t have any expectations for the staff in terms of knowledge, that way you won’t be disappointed.
Do I plan to return: maybe
Was I satisfied with my experience: no
Do I recommend you visit this place: yes, at least once

Für die Ausstellung selbst hatte ich selber keine Zeit, dafür hab ich mich ausgiebig im Shop im Erdgeschoss umgesehen. Das Angebot reichte von Postkarten über Bücher bis hin zu sexy Unterwäsche.

Nous sommes allés voir l’expo Funland et du coup nous avons visité le musée. L’expo est certes fun mais ultra courte. Et le musée… Pas grand chose a dire: quelques panneaux sur la vie sexuelle des animaux, non climatise… Bof bof… Je mets quand même 2 étoile parce qu’on a quand même passé un bon moment a l’expo!
