Bridal Shower "Naughty" gift opening Etiquette

My shower is tomorrow. My mother gave me a heads up that her friend is getting me something "naughty" for the bridal shower. When I asked her if it was just some nice lingerie, she said "No. It is worse. It will make you blush and say 'oh dear'". She wouldn't tell me what it was. My FSIL also told me that she knows at least one of her friends is getting me something risque. How should I respond when I open these gifts? Should I hold them up, but not pass them around? I don't think any of the shower guests will be offended by naughty gifts, but I am not sure.

    If it happened to me, I would hold it up, make a cute joke about it, and set it down. Those kinds of gifts don't bother me, nor would they bother anyone who would be at my shower, but every circle is different.  I wouldn't pass it around.  Then again, I don't plan on passing any of the gifts around.

    If it makes you uncomfortable open it, hold it up briefly, say thanks, and move on to the next gift. Don't pass it around or draw more attention then necessary.

    Same thing happened at mine.  I held it up and made a funny joke.  I didn't pass it around.  It's all in good fun.
