This Japanese sex toy for men sells bizarrely well (and no one talks about it)
Welcome to the category: sex toys for men. And there is one that stands out quite often: the TENGA Flip. Because why are sex toys mainly for women?
Women have been openly talking about sex toys for years (vibrators and womanizers are in every drugstore), but men seem to linger a bit in the category of pretending it doesn't exist.
Women have been openly talking about sex toys for years (vibrators and womanizers are now just in the drugstore), but men seem to linger a bit in the category of pretending it doesn't exist. While their purchases and search history... say something else.
Cool Japanese design: this thing is everywhere
It looks like a futuristic gadget. Something you would expect next to your AirPods rather than in a nightstand.
This Japanese design thing is one of the most popular sex toys for men worldwide, and thus also in the Netherlands. Not just a little popular. Just: standard choice.
In Japan, there has even been a TENGA concept store, right in Harajuku. Not dark, not shady, not awkward. Just cool, concept store-worthy: light, design, even a bit of museum vibes. A place where sexuality suddenly feels like... lifestyle.
Why this sex toy is so popular
Because men, cliché as it may be, love upgrades.
So, that TENGA Flip is really a must-have for men:
- handy click system that you unfold (yes yes, satisfying)
- an inside that feels like someone seriously thought about it
- and a design that thankfully doesn't scream: I am a sex toy, I am a sex toy, I am a sex toy
Really discreet then. Design & technical. And... efficient.
Men and sex toys: the silent taboo
Yes, and why? Women have been buying a vibrator or womanizer without shame for years, online or in the store. But for men, it is really different. They act as if this whole chapter doesn't exist.
But it is indeed being used massively.
Small detail: this has existed much longer than you think
The TENGA has been around since 2005 and received an upgrade to the Flip in 2008. So this is not a TikTok hype, but a product that has quietly been at the top for years.
Maybe you think: is this such a product... does anyone really do this?
The answer is yes, and not just a little.
TENGA Flip conclusion
The TENGA Flip is therefore not just a hype.
And that may make it the most successful sex toy for men in the Netherlands.
