Without sex, there is no life

Birds do it, Bees do it and Bonobos do it. It’s no wonder humans can’t get enough of it. Sex is life and life without sex would be so dull.

For a proper sex to occur you need two consenting adults but that is easier said than done. Not everyone is in a relationship to enjoy a steady supply of sex. Sometimes life is a bitch and even when you’re in a relationship you might be sexually starved for one reason or another. It is why escorts are ‘godsent’ and thanks to their sheer dedication one can today have sex any time of the day with just a click of a button.

Voila! sex toys

What happens, however, when one can’t have sex when they want to? Blame the coronavirus pandemic or your partner who might suddenly have a headache when you are suffering from a special pain of your own which requires a release.

To get around this juggernaut or if you like fill this void sex toys were invented and voila! one needn’t have a sex partner to experience that sweet over the moon feeling. 

Men and sex toys

You would then think that should have been the end of the world’s problems. For the majority of women, it was for men not so much. For start manufacturers were slow in creating sex toys for men and then there was the little problem of a mildly puritan shame, the hassle of cleaning up, and the fact that the few sex toys for men that existed kinda looked like alien appendages. 

Not today, men just like women are now spoilt for choice.

Sale of sex toys shoots through the roof during Corona

While the sale of face masks, hand sanitizers and even hazmat suits has been at an all-time high since the outbreak of coronavirus, that is not the only thing people across the world have been worried sick about.

Sex toys sales have spiked over the last few months, as more and more people look for new ways to self-pleasure during their self-quarantine stuck at home. Online sex toy retailer, Ella Paradis, has reported a 200% increase in sales on their website since the coronavirus outbreak. Lovers, another sex store says while sales were already “really high” right before their stores were forced to shut down due to corona, sales hit the roof once corona forced virtually everyone to stay at home.

So, as a young lad with plenty of time on your hands how about you spoil yourself and try that sexy sex toy you saw online? Even if you are lucky enough to be quarantined with a sexual partner you can still both lose your shit and indulge in one. Some of these toys are great to use with a partner. And if not, these endless days of social distancing are the ideal moment to get a fresh and a hands-on experience with your self-sex.
