A rep for WOW Tech Group, which owns the sex toy brands WeVibe and Womanizer, told VICE that both brands had already exceeded their monthly sales projections by more than 40 percent as of March 25. They also noted that sales for Womanizer, which mostly makes toys designed for masturbation, were especially high.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt reminds me a little bit of grocery store hoarding, like buying things you\u00a0<i>might<\/i>\u00a0need in the future but maybe only bought rarely in the past,\u201d Sinclair said. \u201cWhen someone&#8217;s coming and buying five accessories, or three or four different sizes of butt plugs, it does seem like people are investing for the long haul.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As long as everyone who\u2019s panic buying sex toys is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en_us\/article\/ywaayy\/how-often-should-you-clean-your-sex-toys\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">washing them properly<\/a>\u2014with unscented soap and water, before and after each use\u2014using a bevy of vibes and butt plugs to stay entertained throughout lockdown is a fine and good idea. Sinclair also mentioned that one item, in particular, has been the \u201csleeper number one selling product\u201d for all of March: A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bvibe.com\/uv-sterilizer-pouch.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pocket UV sterilizer pouch<\/a>, designed for sex toys, that\u2019s been available through b-Vibe since August 2019. \u201cWe had somebody buy four of them,\u201d Sinclair said. \u201cMy belief is that people are repurposing them for keys, phones, goggles\u2026 They&#8217;re sterilizing household objects.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We can&#8217;t recommend upping your arsenal of toys anymore &#8211; cause hey, it&#8217;s not like it won&#8217;t be fun to use them once the lockdown is over, right?<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-25344\" data-postid=\"25344\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-25344 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While restaurants, bars, and other businesses are struggling to stay afloat amidst the Coronavirus shutdown, there is one industry that has benefited, and it&#8217;s not all that surprising: SEX TOYS!
