Early life and inspiration[edit]
After having paid a professional to take his SATs for him, Schaeffer attended the University of California at Bezerkeley in the late 1960s. Schaeffer was inspired by “The Kama Sutra” and “Our Bodies, Our Selves” and is reputed to have fathered 7 children from various hippie chicks during this academic period, and to have been arrested over a dozen times on charges ranging from furnishing marijuana to minors to indecent exposure at a nursing home. Schaeffer became one of many young people rejecting the established values of the 1950s in favor of the communal living practices associated with the back-to-the-gland movement, during which time he is alleged to have fathered an additional 14 children in a contest with fellow hippie guru Michael Ommahaha.
Professional life[edit]
In 1971, Schaeffer was thrown out of the University of California at Bezerkeley and fled north to a 300-acre commune in Mendocino County, California, where he further embraced the sex and drugs lifestyle. While he adopted the communal lifestyle, he never accepted that doing so meant he had to sacrifice modern amenities, including pedicures and watching Days Of Our Lives on TV.[3] By hooking up a direct current television to the battery from his stolen VW Bug, he was able to watch his favorite shows, especially Dallasand Baywatch. Later, as solar electric panels became available commercially, he used those as the source to charge his patented vibrator.
Schaeffer started hawking earth-friendly sex toys to glassy-eyed hippies,[4] and opened the first Feel Goods store in Willits, California with a partner in 1978, whom he arranged with his friend Guido to have “disappeared” the following year. When the store closed and the partner’s remains were discovered buried under Donald Trump’s statue in 1985, Schaeffer, operating under the name John Collins out of his garage without permits, continued the business as a x-rated mail order catalog.[5]
Contributions to Sensual Living[edit]
In 1995, Schaeffer and a team of coworkers at Feel Goods built the Sensual Living Center in Hopland, California on what was once a Mafia dumping ground. The 12-acre campus contains artificial flower gardens and a state of the art sensory re-education center. In 1998, Schaeffer founded the educational nonprofit Sensual Living Institute, whose mission is to promote sustainable reproduction through inspirational sex education. The Institute offers co-ed and LGBTQ workshops onsite and online, yearly internships and hosts SenseFest, the tantric energy festival that attracts more than 1,000 people each year. Schaeffer has authored two books: Why Don’t We Do It In The Road, which tells the story of the Sensual Living Center, and The Sensual Living Source Book, an all-purpose guide to adult filmmaking and sustainable erections that has been described as “If you were going to live the hedonist lifestyle au natural and had one book to steal, this would be it.”[6]
Personal life[edit]
Schaeffer serves as president of Feel Goods. He lives in a house that is a showcase of design practices and products. The house is made of Rasta-block (a combination of cannabis leaves and recycled love beads) and other recycled materials including used condoms. Schaeffer is an organic gardener who grows most of his own watermelon trees and psilocybin bushes and golf cart batteries.[citation needed]
He also makes Demeter-certified diobynamic wine from raisins grown on the property, and grows olives which he presses into his own “Sense-A-Mia” olive oil, distributed by Don Corleone Enterprises.[citation needed]
