The Sex Industry

A sex shop is a shop that sells products related to adult sexual pleasure and/or erotic entertainment.

Some might say that ladies who use sex toys are simply having "safe sex with a battery operated boyfriend" and that sex toys are the reason for "sexless marriages"
Its true that in a way it is safe sex with a battery operated boyfriend but in today's society there are many sex products suitable for couples and not just women so sex toys are not the cause of sexless marriages.

The first steam powered vibrator called "The Manipulator" was invented in 1869 by an American physician called George Taylor.
