(1) Rich and diverse varieties
Sex toys are incredibly diverse. BDSM products offer unique options for those seeking a special experience. For example, a couple’s play set featuring sex restraints and ankle cuffs is priced at just 14.5 yuan, with a minimum order of 3. Made in Suzhou, it’s suitable for adult couples. Erotic lingerie, which combines visual stimulation with sexual pleasure, is already very popular in Europe and the United States and has also been gaining popularity in China over the past two years. Products like dildos, dildos, and vibrators cater to the intimate needs of diverse demographics. For example, female orgasm enhancement products range in price from a few yuan to several dozen yuan, with a variety of brands available, including Du Ai, Bo Jin, and Jiao Yue. There are also various sex toys and delay devices, such as semen lock rings, available in various materials and brands, with prices ranging from a few cents to several dozen yuan. Yihuan Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. in Huicheng District, Huizhou City, manufactures male sex toys such as semen lock rings, butterfly crystal rings, and vibrating rings for delaying ejaculation and retaining semen. Wholesale adult sex toys have a 33.8% return rate.

(2) Wide range of applicable population

For men with short intercourse times, sex toys can stimulate the partner’s sensitive areas, giving the woman greater pleasure and maximizing simultaneous orgasm. According to statistics, there are numerous male delay products on the market, such as wholesale adult sex toys, male delay rings, and rabbit vibrating rings, priced around 7.5 yuan. Women with low libido can effectively stimulate their sexual desire through the use of sex toys, especially when combined with topical lubricants such as body lubricants and massage oils. For example, products for female sexual dysfunction include orgasm enhancers, female pleasure enhancers, and sexual enhancement products, all priced around 60 yuan. For those seeking contraception, whether young men and women, married couples, or elderly couples, condoms are crucial, ensuring safe sex and providing effective contraception. For singles, inflatable dolls or artificial penises can effectively help release their sexual desires.

2. Safe use is the key

It is emphasized that when using sex toys, attention should be paid to material safety, correct methods should be followed, and risks should be avoided.

(1) Material is crucial

Different sex toys are made from different materials, and their safety profiles vary. Some low-quality sex toys may be made from materials containing harmful chemicals. For example, PVC, if added with unqualified plasticizers, can cause reproductive system abnormalities, even birth defects and cancer. Skin contact can cause irritation and allergic reactions, leading to redness, swelling, itching, and other discomfort. While ABS is rated for daily use, it feels harder and has a less pleasant feel. TPE closely resembles the feel of human skin and has a very low allergenic potential, making it a popular material for sex toys. Silicone, with its excellent biocompatibility, is non-irritating, non-toxic, and non-allergenic properties, with minimal rejection, makes it a relatively safe material. Platinum-cured silicone combines the advantages of both TPE and silicone, offering exceptional safety, but at a higher cost and a more premium price.

(2) Correct usage

Proper use of sex toys can effectively reduce risks. For example, with sex toys, cleanliness is paramount. After use, they should be cleaned promptly, preferably disinfected, and stored in a clean, dry place. Many sex toys become hard over time and should be replaced promptly to avoid bruising the genitals. The specific steps are as follows: First, do not discard the unpacked packaging; this will be used to inspect for damaged parts later. Second, remove the plastic wrapping and inspect for damage. Then, take the sex toys to the bathroom to degrease the surface, as many sex toys produce oil. This should be done weekly. Next, use a regular baby powder puff to remove oil and dirt from the surface. Rinse the device and wipe away any powder and dirt with a damp towel, keeping it dry and clean. Finally, it is best to use a condom and apply a suitable amount of lubricant during use. For other sex toys, such as vibrators and egg buds, ensure they are cleaned and maintained according to the instructions. Also, choose products that are suitable for your needs and avoid overuse to avoid adverse effects on your body.

3. How to use it to add fun

(1) Steps for using the simulation device

Simulators require special care during use. First, inspect the packaging for damage before use. After unpacking, store the packaging securely so that it can be returned to the manufacturer for repair of damaged parts. Next, remove the device from the bathroom and degrease it. Since many simulators produce oil, this should be done weekly. After degreasing, gently wipe the surface of the device with a regular baby powder puff to remove both oil and dirt. Rinse again and wipe away any powder and dirt with a damp towel. Finally, keep the device dry and store it in a clean, dry place. Furthermore, many simulators can become hard over time, so they should be replaced promptly to avoid bruising the genitals. It’s best to use a condom and apply a generous amount of lubricant during use to ensure safety and comfort.

(2) Remote vibration gameplay

For couples, remote vibrating sex toys can enhance interaction and enjoyment. For example, a remote vibrator should be charged before use. Charging typically takes about 1-2 hours, allowing for a full day of use. To use, the vibrator is inserted into the woman’s vagina. The man or partner can then freely control the intensity and frequency of the vibrations using a phone or other device, choosing from short, gentle vibrations to continuous, rapid vibrations. The entire process can be monitored at any time, making it not only fun but also enhancing the vitality and interaction between couples. There are also wearable remote sex toys like invisible vibrating butterfly sex toys, which can be controlled via an app, allowing couples to enjoy a unique level of intimacy even when they are apart.

(3) Tips for foreplay and flirting

Electronic sex toys can play a significant role in foreplay. For example, small devices like vibrators and egg yolks can be used for gentle touch, gently touching sensitive areas of your partner’s body, such as the breasts, buttocks, and neck, gradually increasing the stimulation. Creative small items, such as silk ties or scarves, can be used. Twisting a soft tie or scarf against your partner’s smooth skin can strongly stimulate their imagination. These small items can also be used as blindfolds and bondage props. Jelly can also be rubbed onto firm nipples and inner thighs to create stunning effects. Alternatively, place two phones in the room and ask each other to act as the operator for a sex call, allowing them to confide in each other or share intimate, secret fantasies. Watercolor pens have soft bristles that can enhance sexual excitement. Purchase a variety of pens to experiment with different effects. Ice cubes can bring thrilling sexual stimulation to your partner. Blindfold your partner and place ice around their navel or in your mouth, slowly dissolving it according to the curves of different body parts. However, be careful not to leave the ice on the same part for too long to avoid frostbite. The water jets from the shower head can also give women an unprecedented orgasm, but the water temperature must be controlled so as not to burn the secret buds.

(4) Online or phone sex options

For couples living apart, online or phone sex is also an option. Smart sex toys, such as the Sistalk Little Monster Smart Sex Egg, can be used with an app. You can invite your partner to remotely control sex via WeChat or QQ, allowing them to provide a unique level of stimulation even from a distance. Additionally, during sex, you can enable video and voice calls to enhance communication and understanding. This method not only satisfies both partners’ physical needs but also deepens their relationship. However, be mindful of protecting personal privacy and choose safe and reliable products and software.

4. Impact on Marital Relationship

(1) Bringing freshness and excitement

A long period of dull sex can easily lead to boredom for couples. However, sex toys are like a key, unlocking a new door to novelty and excitement. For example, a variety of novel sex toys, such as uniquely shaped massagers and creative vibrating rings, can bring a whole new experience to couples. According to statistics, approximately 70% of couples who use sex toys report a significant increase in sexual excitement, sparking curiosity and desire. These toys break the mold, allowing couples to revisit the days of passionate love, fueled by a desire to explore each other.

(2) Enhance communication and intimacy

When choosing and using sex toys, couples need to openly communicate about their preferences, needs, and expectations. This in-depth communication is a crucial way to foster intimacy. For example, when discussing whether to use a certain type of lingerie, couples can better understand each other’s preferences for visual stimulation; when choosing the features of a vibrator, they can understand each other’s needs for stimulation intensity. Through such communication, couples deepen trust and strengthen intimacy. Studies have shown that couples who regularly engage in such open communication have 30% higher marital satisfaction than those who don’t.

(3) Helping to overcome difficulties

For couples experiencing sexual disharmony due to physiological or psychological reasons, sex toys can provide an effective solution. For example, for men with erectile dysfunction, certain delay devices can help prolong intercourse and relieve stress and anxiety. For women experiencing low libido, sex toys like female pleasure-enhancing liquids can effectively stimulate libido and improve the quality of their sex life. According to a survey, approximately 40% of couples experiencing sexual disharmony have seen significant improvements in their sex life after using sex toys appropriately.

V. Market size and development trends

(1) Market size reaches 100 billion

Data released by the China Research Institute of Industry and Information Technology shows that over the past three years, the market size of adult sex toys in my country has shown a growing trend, reaching 113.44 billion yuan. Data from iiMedia Research indicates that the sex toy market reached 168.53 billion yuan in 2022 and is expected to reach 208.13 billion yuan in 2025. This massive market is driven by growing consumer demand. With the development of society and the improvement of people’s living standards, the demand for sex toys is no longer limited to traditional family planning products but has expanded to a variety of functional and erotic products. The widening product range, from simple condoms to high-end simulation devices and smart sex toys, has further fueled the expansion of the market.

(2) Changes in user thinking

Influenced by education, young consumers are shifting their perspectives and becoming more tolerant of adult products. Data from iiMedia Research shows that 34.82% of respondents expressed a desire to try sex toys, 28.13% found them pleasurable, and 27.23% were neutral. Less than 10% expressed aversion. This suggests that the younger generation of consumers has a more open mindset about sex and no longer considers adult products a taboo topic. The increasing number of single people living alone and their growing sexual desires will naturally drive the expansion of the adult sex toy market. Furthermore, young people are more receptive to new things and are more likely to try and use sex toys, becoming a key driver of market growth.

(3) Development of e-commerce platforms

In the early days, the adult sex toy market was influenced by conservative attitudes, with shops often located in remote corners, creating awkward shopping experiences. However, with the development of e-commerce platforms, this awkward deadlock has gradually been broken. E-commerce platforms can, to a certain extent, protect user privacy, eliminating the awkwardness of offline purchases. The transaction volume of my country’s adult sex toy e-commerce consumer market continues to grow, reaching 62.5 billion yuan. E-commerce platforms not only provide convenient shopping channels but also enable consumers to compare and choose from a wide range of products. Merchants can also use e-commerce data to better improve products and enhance the user experience, thereby driving industry development from both the supply and demand sides.

(4) Changes in audience groups

With women’s growing self-awareness, giving rise to the “she economy” and the “self-pleasure consumption” model, the focus of e-commerce adult sex toy consumers is gradually shifting towards women. The growth rate of women’s sex toys in my country has reached 67.2%, far exceeding the growth rate of the men’s market. Female consumers play a key role in driving the adult sex toy market. An increasing number of businesses are designing and developing products tailored to women’s needs, such as various styles of sexy lingerie, female-specific massagers, and pleasure-enhancing products. As women’s social status and income levels rise, they are paying more attention to their own needs and experiences, and are willing to invest in their sex lives, becoming a key driving force in market development.
