Cutting through the squeamishness, MyNation brings you seven websites that are popular private tool hotspots based on real-life reviews 

India’s toy story is no kid stuff anymore. Thanks to popular propagation through films such as Veere Di Wedding and web series such as Lust Stories that proudly put forth a woman’s right to pleasure, women in India are buying sex toys more than ever. 

Women in Gujarat alone have spiked adult toy sales by 50% much ahead of the usual Navratri boom, and the Palika porn bazaar in Delhi reports that their boys are at “home delivery” all day! This, even as the Patent Office of India recently rejected a Canadian company’s application to patent an adult toy, claiming these are ‘obscene’ and lead to ‘moral deprivation’.

Quick law check — Section 292 of the Indian Penal Code prevents the sale of any material that is ‘obscene’ in India, but sex toys have not been specifically stated in the law and the sellers of these products ensure that they stick to discreet, no-obscenity packaging and marketing.

Cutting through the clichéd debate and discussion on the subject, MyNation brings you seven websites that are popular private tool hotspots based on real-life reviews from users we wish to keep anonymous.

Love Treats

Lovetreats.in is a popular adult toy platform that offers pleasure products for both men and women. From highly realistic, medically tested body part imitations to the usual vibrating and non-vibrating masturbators for men and dildos for women, the big range of experimental accessories that can be used individually or otherwise, accompanied by the option of discreet packaging and delivery conforming to the ‘non-obscene’ legal clause has made it a fun, safe shop for many.  

Poppers India

Poppersindia.com is an LGBT friendly online store is high on aphrodisiacs, sexologist consultation, costumes and BDSM gear apart from the usual tools. Separate sections offer you party pack combos, fetish specific products, kinky costumes, bedroom games, different styles of anal toys, enlargement pumps…everything you can, and cannot imagine! What’s popular—their special offers and complete toy hygiene kits.

I Am Besharam

Iambesharam.com has Sunny Leone for its poster girl, and everything on the website is as fun and sunny as her. The portal is celebrating their 5th anniversary with some super interesting new products to pleasure and pique interest. These guys let you shop by ‘experience’ or ‘fantasy’ and have a whole 50 Shades of Grey toy range as well! The site has reported a 57% shoot-up in their sales after the broadcast of the screen stories we’ve mentioned before. One of the users told us that what sets them apart is their great and highly discreet customer care service. 

That’s Personal

Thatspersonal.com is a go-to website for those whose sex lives doesn’t seem to be working out fine. Before addressing kink and fetish, users say it is about fixing the essentials and overcoming inhibitions and inabilities—looking into the basics and boredom of bedroom dynamic. ‘I was recommended the site by my doctor to pump up the passion in my marriage…later I saw the more interesting products as well but I’d say it’s a good starter spot and doesn’t overwhelm you at once,’ says a user we wish to keep anonymous.

Adult Vibes

Adultvibes.co.in is a Kolkata-based adult toy portal that is popular among patrons for its rabbit vibrators, ‘machine guns’, vibrator tanks and ‘double dongs’ that are all larger-than-life experiences in primal pleasure. They also have imported ‘lovemaking furniture’ like special love rollers and pillows to heighten sexual pleasure.

Masala Toys

Masalatoys.in has a racy, desi vibe that gives it a very Indian intimate sensibility. From essentials to sports masturbators to the promising ‘dolphin dildo’ and clitoral blow tools, vaginal beads, magic wand whips et al, the website, established in 2009, takes responsibility for the safety and medical standards of its premium private products. ‘They even give friendly explainers if you are inexperienced with toys,’ says a user.

Norty Dorty

The founders of nortydorty.com, which has a US address but ships in India, believe that a woman’s orgasm is one of the most important parts of fulfilling adult existence. The neat, chic interface thus has a range of colourful toys that has caught on with the urban aware ever since the website was set up in 2016. However, they consciously refrain from selling ‘body part’ toys. ‘We are sorry, we do not carry products that resemble any anatomical organs’, say the founders.
