CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/885,364 filed on Jan. 31, 2018, which is included in its entirety by reference. 
    
    
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to a device for affixing a sex toy to the abdominal area of a human being. Specifically, the present invention relates to a strap with an abdominally worn base plate for affixing a sex toy such as a dildo leaving the genitals of the wearer exposed. Alternative embodiments are disclosed incorporating a “butt plug” into the device and allowing the use of the device with a penile restraint. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Currently there is a universal method for affixing a dildo to a human being for sexual use: A dildo is affixed to a base plate worn over the pubic area of the wearer. A locating strap system surrounds the waist and legs of the wearer and holds the base on the human wearer in the pubic area. This means of wearing a dildo and strap apparatus positions the base of the dildo at or about the level of the mons pubis. When worn by a female this presents few problems. But, when worn by a male the base of the dildo impinges on the male genitalia. This can be painful. 
     What is needed then is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that may be worn such that the base on which the dildo or sex toy is mounted supra-pubicly above the pubic area of the wearer. 
     Also what is needed is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that has a relatively large, flat base so that the force of using a dildo or other sex toy is distributed out to the relatively soft supra-pubic area of the wearer. 
     Also what is needed is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that has an open space for the penis and testicles of the wearer such that the penis and testicles are exposed. 
     Also what is needed is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that has adjustable straps so that the device may be comfortably worn by different individuals. 
     Also what is needed is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that has a user changeable base for mounting a dildo or other sex toy. 
     Also what is needed is a strap and base for a dildo or other sex toy that has a user changeable base for mounting a dildo or other sex toy such that a male wearer may use the strap and base with mounted dildo with a penile and scrotal restraining device worn over the protruding penis and testicles. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The exemplary embodiment of the present invention comprises the following components: 1) A strap assembly for attaching or affixing a dildo or other sex toy to the abdomen of the user; and, 2) A changeable mounting facility for affixing the dildo or sex toy to the strap assembly. 
     The strap assembly for attaching or affixing a dildo or other sex toy to the abdomen of the user is comprised of a base plate placed supra-pubicly above the genitals of the wearer. Attached to the back and sides of the base plate is the front strap. The front strap terminates with holes for receiving the tang of a buckle affixed to one end of each of the side straps. Each side strap also comprises a metal loop with a rear strap affixed between them. Proceeding down from the truncate bottom end of the base plate are the initial parts of two lower straps. The initial parts of the two lower straps terminate in buckles with a tang. Halfway along the length of the initial parts of the two lower straps are a linear series of holes formed in each. The initial parts of the two lower straps are crossed over and affixed together by placing a pin or other fixing device through mated holes in the initial parts of the two lower straps. The exact location where the initial parts of the two lower straps are crossed and affixed together may be varied and are generally set by the wearer to supply tension after the penis and testicles are inserted. The ends of the two lower straps end in buckles with tangs which are coupled to the terminal portions of the two lower straps. The other end of the terminal portions of the two lower straps are affixed to the two loops mentioned previously. 
     The exemplary embodiment of the present invention is used in the following manner: First, the user places the waist strap (comprising the front strap, the side straps, and the rear strap) around the waist such that the base plate is positioned supra-pubicly on the soft tissue of the abdomen. Next, the user then adjusts the waist strap such that that the waist strap is securely tensioned around the waist. Next, a male user places his penis and testicles through the opening formed by the lower edge of the base plate and the crossed lower straps. The male user may be wearing a penile restraint device. Next, the user draws the lower straps between the legs and up over the buttocks and affixes the terminal portion of each of them through the loops in the rear of the waist strap. Next, the user tightens the buckles in the lower straps so that the lower straps are securely fixed to his lower body. Finally, the user affixes a dildo or other sex toy to the base plate by means of the changeable mounting facility on the base plate of the strap assembly.
