Come As You Are is a Canadian sex-positive sex shop located in Toronto, Ontario. Founded in 1997 by Cory Silverberg as a worker-owner co-operative in the model of Good Vibrations, Come As You Are has an educational and community-based mandate, and provides a fully accessible store and workshop environment. Come As You Are is known for providing a safe and comfortable environment where people can access sex information and products, as well as their work making sex toys more accessible for people with disabilities.

Come As You Are is currently the only co-operatively owned sex shop in the world, and holds the distinction of consistently being voted Toronto's best sex shop by the readers of Now Toronto.

Education

Come As You Are offers sex education, health, and pleasure workshops by Midori, Ducky DooLittle, Kate Bornstein, Susie Bright and other notable sex-positive authors and educators.

The co-op also provides education outreach workshops to local community groups and universities. In 2013, Come As You Are won The Co-operators' National Co-op Challenge with a proposal to bring their educational outreach to communities across Canada.
