Self-pleasure is always a taboo topic when the person talking about it is a woman. If it’s a man talking, it suddenly doesn’t become a big deal. However, at this age where women empowerment is more prominent than ever, society has become more welcoming of the idea that women are free to do as they please with their body without having to be judged.
Aside from the strong feminine figures leading the charge, some companies are also helping women embrace their femininity through an assortment of high-quality sex toys. As women worldwide have easier access to these personal items, it’s becoming more apparent to them the self-pleasuring is okay regardless of gender.
According to a study conducted last year, 27% of women masturbate two to three times a week. Moreover, 26% of them masturbate at least once a week. The numbers are increasing at a steady pace and it seems like women are now more comfortable with embracing their sexuality. Of course, the availability of toys that enhance the experience is also possibly to thank for this.
It’s not just empowered women using sex toys as well. Aside from enhancing masturbation, sex toys are also often used by couples to revitalize their sex life. A lot of couples use sex toys because it adds a ton of variety to their intimate moments. It’s usually used by couples that have been together for a long time and want to try something different.
The sex toy industry is growing steadily thanks to innovations made by the top brands. For a while, the industry has been stagnant because it was difficult to think of what could be next for sex toys. This is when Lovense took up the opportunity to revolutionize the industry in a simple but highly effective way.

What Is Lovense?

Lovense is a Singapore-based sex toy manufacturer known for developing sexual VR experiences and a line of smart sex toys. There’s a good story as to why the company was built and why its focus remains on innovations that help make sex toys a more intimate experience for those that want to use them.
When the company was founded in 2009, its founder was engaged in a long-distance relationship. This minor relationship matter resulted in the founder creating teledildonics. Since 2013, the company has been launching a wide selection of sex toys that can be controlled via the Lovense app on the smartphone.
Its selection of products has long been a favorite by women worldwide. As such, laweekly did a post about some of the best remote-control vibrators out currently and to no surprise, most of the items were from Lovense. Some of those items include the Lush 2, the Nora Rabbit Vibrator, and the Ambi. Most of the products were selected because they made long-distance relationships much easier.
The company has been producing some of the best sex toys in the industry. While remote-controlled vibrators used to be their specialty, they are now moving on to more exciting ventures which include VR integrated sex toys and much more. For now, the possibilities seem limitless.

Why It Changed The Industry

When people thought about sex toys, they didn’t think about them being used to make long-distance relationships work. Whether it’s a sex toy for a man or a woman, it’s always been about pleasuring one’s self instead of the other way around. When Lovense acme, it made a lot of sense as to why sex toys can be used as a means to keep long-distance relationships strong.
One of the problems that couples begin to face when in a long-distance relationship is the lack of intimacy and sex. Others try to cope with it through phone sex, sexting, or even through video chatting. However, this still didn’t bridge that wide gap because behind the technology, the couples were still doing things on their own.
When Lovense arrived, it was groundbreaking. Through the app, one person can control the sex toy of his or her partner even if they are worlds apart. For instance, you can regular the intensity of the vibrator as your partner uses it on her end. This way, relationships felt more intimate because, in some way, the pleasure was still caused in part by the other person.
Of course, Lovense’s toys aren’t just for couples. They can be used by individuals as well. Lovense functions with the use of the Lovense app for Android and iOS devices so it's easy for women to use the product on themselves. Perhaps the biggest way Lovense changed the industry is that it opened up opportunities for camgirls as well as they use toys from the company for better engagement with their viewers.
Thanks to Lovense, more companies decided to up their game. Now, more manufacturers are creating remote-controlled sex toys to compete against Lovense’s best offerings. It’s a healthy competition that’s much needed by an industry that still holds a ton of potential.

Sex Toys In The Time Of A Pandemic

According to the New York Times, the sales of sex toys boomed this year. This was an expected surprise especially considering how a lot of people are advised to stay at home. The fact that people were isolated meant that they didn’t have the chance to see their significant other as regularly as possible. It also meant that gone were the days of hooking up on Tinder.
To cope with the months of lockdown globally, both men and women bought sex toys. As expected, some of the best selling toys are from Lovense. Their line of toys is perfect for all sorts of users - including long-distance couples that are barred from taking flights to other countries because of the Covid-19 scare.
Lovense serves as one of the pioneers in the sex toy industry and it’s easy to see why. Their range of toys benefits those in a commitment and those who aren’t. It will be exciting to see where Lovense takes their ideas next. The devoted customers of the company would surely want to make VR sex experiences more engaging.
