Sexual wellness brand Lovehoney has been embroiled in a long-term conflict with Google and Instagram because stringent search and ad policies hinder its marketing efforts and hide its website. Lovehoney’s head of sexual empowerment Johanna Rief tells The Drum how it is fighting back.
In 2021 Google made changes to its SafeSearch feature that, according to the corporation, “help filter out explicit content in search results.”
Due to this ‘explicit’ restriction, Lovehoney estimates that it has now lost close to 1 million customers. “It is just another example of big tech treating sexuality as something that is sinful,” says Rief, “while allowing other harmful content to slip through the net.”
In June this year, the brand decided to implement its struggle into its marketing message by creating a not-so-subtle billboard that called out the tech giant. ‘Ogle’ saw the recognizable primary colors of the Google search engine alongside the copy: “Turn off SafeSearch to lay eyes on our full range.”
To date, there’s been no response from the tech giant. “They don’t want to be mentioned in an article or be in the same room as sexual wellness brands,” adds Rief.
“We’ve made 600 complaints. We are in contact with the Google ads team, which is really nice, but the policy team doesn’t really want to talk to us.”
With Google being a top search engine, Lovehoney needs to make the arrangement work. It can’t boycott Google, but it needs to generate new traffic sources. “It was a little bit eye-opening for us. There are other search engines, right? They’re not as big as Google, but still relevant.”
Google is more than happy to accept Lovehoney’s ad spend, but it is restricted from retargeted ads. This, at least, Rief understands. Who wants to have sex toy ads show up on their work laptop on a Monday morning?
“We pay the same amount for Google ads, but we get less traffic,” she notes. “We were really sticking to the guidelines they gave us for ads, we said, ‘just tell us what we should do, what keywords we can bid on in order to make sure that we are aligned with the guidelines.’ We only want people on the homepage who are looking for these kinds of products. We’re not bidding on random keywords like toys.”
Generally, the feedback from Google is that the restrictions are in place to ‘protect kids,’ she says. But Rief is quick to point out that “as soon as a kid knows what sex toys are then they should be getting sex education.”
Regardless, for now, third-party sellers offer a lifeline, with the products offered on Amazon, Superdrug and Argos among other retailers. “Marketplaces are important, but even Amazon is a little bit strict when it comes to listing sex toys and where they are displayed,” she says.
“We’ve had our fair share of conversations with Amazon. It’s not super open-minded when it comes to sex toys, but we still sell quite well. And then there’s the affiliate program where they get a lot of money from selling sex toys. But again, it’s not Amazon’s favorite topic of conversation.”
But even social media has its issues. Lovehoney is silenced due to the terms of service. “Social media ads are not possible for us,” adds Rief. “Our followers and community are grown organically, which takes a long time and a lot of effort. We had times where [Instagram and Facebook] blocked our brands – they didn’t delete the channel, but they banned it for a while until we started being loud about it.”
With claims of being ‘shadowbanned,’ Rief says that Lovehoney was accused of violating the guidelines with its ads. She feels that the rules are so broad and that there are “definitely different standards for different topics.”
“It seems that female sexuality, within our society, was always oppressed or used to control women. You are not allowed to have the same sex drive. You are not allowed to have the same amount of sex partners. It was always used to keep women a little bit smaller. It seems that these big companies still have this outdated picture in mind when it comes to female sexuality.”
So when asked what’s next in the battle for a visible sex toy shop on the internet, Rief and co will continue garnering attention to the topic, creating a louder buzz. “Maybe a protest in front of the Google office?” teases Rief.
“I believe that many people working at Google have a way more open mindset than the ones [making the decisions].”

These days, talk of the metaverse is inescapable. We take work meetings and suck up to our bosses in a virtual boardroom, attend couture fashion shows alongside BFFs, and even belt out “About Damn Time” at Lizzo and Charli XCX concerts in the world of virtual reality. And pretty soon, we might be having sex in it, too. With growing advancements in the world of VR, it’s only natural for people to wonder what might come next. And with the sex industry and sex in general making a large shift to virtual spaces during the pandemic (hello the re-emergence of phone sex and the rise of OnlyFans!), it makes sense that sex and intimacy would be the next step. But what does sex and intimacy in the metaverse actually look like? If you’re surprised to hear that sex is going digital, you shouldn’t be. People have been using virtual spaces for the purpose of sex and intimacy since pretty much the internet started. Who doesn’t remember the thrill of messaging your boyfriend semi-naughty things over MSN Messenger? A decade earlier, popular games like Second Life allowed users to engage in intimate and romantic acts in chat rooms. The reasons why someone seeks intimacy have remained the same, but for some, the prelude has changed from dinner and a movie to logging in from your living room. Online spaces, like the metaverse, allow people a potentially safer space to explore desires, fantasies, kinks, fetishes, and things that they don’t feel comfortable or are unable to pursue in their physical lives. A digital space can also be a place for people with less physical mobility or who don’t have the ability to experience certain types of pleasure IRL. But overall the metaverse is an open playground for anyone. “I want to dispel the myth that folks that would participate in sex or intimate relationships virtually are only people who can’t get it in real life,” says sex and consent educator Samantha Bitty. “The truth is that there are so many different reasons for people to engage in intimate relationships virtually.”
So how does sex in the metaverse actually look, and more importantly, feel? Well, it kind of depends. Just like sex IRL is varied and diverse, so too are sexual experiences in virtual reality. The multi-sensory part of VR means that four of your senses are engaged within the online space, providing users with, “a combination of audio, visual, tactile (haptic), and even olfactory stimulus that lends to a more robust sense of immersion in the digital world,” says Brian Sanchez, lead character artist at RD Land, which specialises in creating safe spaces for cybersex, alongside other VR experiences. Currently in beta, the platform allows gamers to use devices like vests, gloves, and adult toys to engage these senses. Companies like RD Land are hoping to push these boundaries of how users perceive the world around them, by subverting the way their senses react. For example, instead of just playing The Weeknd’s latest album to get you in the mood, you could be in a virtual room where your device will vibrate differently to the beats of horny Drake or upbeat Lizzo and give different sensations. “In our worlds, every sensation can bring pleasure if the user so desires and so allows,” Sanchez says. Viro Playspace is also testing the waters. Similar to RD Land, the sex-positive company allows users to fully immerse themselves in different scenarios and engage with digital avatars for pleasure. You can have a one-on-one session with Emy, a vampire from Siberia who needs to consume blood to live, or experience Scalie Seduction, which brings gamers face-to-face with a “smokin’ hot dragon babe.” Other interactions include a sexual encounter underneath a waterfall while out for a hike (no fear of ticks or being caught by other hikers, included), and being dominated by an avatar who “puts the suck in succubus.” (Yes, we’re serious). Unlike RD Land, Viro Playspace is completely focused on fantasy, and produces and sells Bluetooth-enabled adult toys so users can actually physically feel what’s happening to them virtually, like clitoral stimulation, in real life — all while watching it on screen.
“Technology has evolved faster than our ethics around sex and relationships in those spaces.”
SAMANTHA BITTY
Sex in VR is taking the next step of what’s already happening in the sex toy industry (like Bluetooth devices), but doing it in a much more immersive (and arguably) more pleasurable way. “If you look at certain sex toy companies, they have apps where someone could be in Australia on an app and you could be in Canada and they can operate your vibrator or your app and be in possession of the stimulation and the pleasure that you feel,” Bitty says. “So how is that different from if someone was hooked up to a virtual reality?” In his book, The Metaverse: And How It Will Revolutionise Everything, author Matthew Ball theorises what sex could look like with ongoing developments in the metaverse, pointing to the development of haptic bodysuits and vests, which allow you to feel virtual environments and stimulate your sense of touch, like feeling rain on your skin or a massage on your shoulder (or… another part of your body). Suits like the Teslasuit, which uses muscle stimulation to simulate real feelings and sensations on your body, currently run for around $20,000, meaning that not many people, aside from maybe millionaires, will be running to get them. But we’re at just the beginning of a burgeoning industry, and gadgets that help you feel the sensory resistance of drawing a bow and arrow in games like In Death: Unchained could also in theory be used for other sensory experiences. Specifically, Ball points to the development of CTRL-labs, an armband device that records electrical activity from skeletal muscles and can pick up the smallest of hand gestures — like pointing one finger or beckoning someone — and reproduce it in a virtual world. Although it’s a device that’s most often used for something like a virtual concert, the idea is that it could be used for more sexual or intimate activities. Instead of people throwing hands in the air at a virtual concert, in theory virtual hands could be on you. The opportunities and pleasure are endless. Of course, as with anything, there are challenges and drawbacks. There are concerns about safety around unwanted encounters, and some see the metaverse as potential grounds for predators. And we can’t blame them. In May of this year, a report was released detailing several accounts of sexual assault and harassment in the metaverse. But “our outside world is [already] a predatory space.” Bitty says. The real issue surrounding sex in virtual spaces, she says, has more to do with us as people — and the mentality around virtual intimacy — than the actual technology itself. “Technology has evolved faster than our ethics around sex and relationships in those spaces.” We’re still waiting for people to stop taking liberties online, like touching people without their consent or using slurs that they’d never utter in person. “Like with any other kind of sex, we have to treat it with the same ethics and values that we would in our in-person relationships,” she says. “So coming to it with authenticity, empathy, and those sorts of things is really important.”
How we get there — and whether or not we get there — remains to be seen. Experts differ on whether or not the metaverse is officially and actually “here.” Like with anything new, the OG internet, TikTok, or even Instagram, it’ll take time to work out the kinks and figure out what works best for users. But virtual intimacy — and the platforms that help users find it — can be vital. Sanchez points to one user who is in a wheelchair and disclosed that sexual intimacy was something they were unable to find or access regularly. “Yet in our [digital] worlds, they could find that type of much needed and humanly vital intimacy without judgment and without any perception of body or gender,” he says. And that’s a big deal. “Our real-world bodies don’t matter,” he adds. “We can choose how we are represented. We can choose a body that feels better to us or allows us to feel in different ways, and have a safe space where we can consentingly engage in exploration around our digital identities.”

1. LELO SONA Sonic Massager
“This toy is designed for external stimulation (mainly the clitoris), but what I love about these kinds of toys is that they can be playfully used on any erogenous zone on the body which opens up limitless pleasure portals. Things I especially like about this toy is that it’s waterproof for bath and shower play, it’s not too clunky and the ergonomically sleek design means it fits really nicely on parts of the body. If using in partner play its slips nicely on the body and in between legs too.”
“It has a lovely diversity of pleasure wave settings so you can explore the sensation and vibration intensity that suits you. I find some toys can be really intense on their low settings but this offers a full spectrum with the lower settings mildly pleasing so there’s a nice variety to navigate with whilst travelling on your own pleasure journey.” Jordan Dixon

It’s one of the quietest toys I’ve tried, and it’s accessible and powerful without being overpowering.” Scotty Unfamous

3. Tracy’s Dog OG Pro 2
“What I love about this toy is that it’s a combination of my two favourite kinds of toys. We have the air suction technology that can be used on the clitoris as well as the external stimulator that vibrates. The internal part has ten different pulses and vibrations and you can have sucking and pulsing simultaneously. It’s super soft and lovely on the body…I napped hard after reviewing this.” Jordan Dixon
“This dual stimulation toy is viral cult-favourite and with good reason. The Tracy’s Dog OG Pro 2 is the upgraded version of their original viral design; the powerful clitoral suction toy with an internal g-spot stimulator now comes with a remote control for a handsfree blended orgasm that will have you gripping your bedsheets. It’s a staple piece for your collection, beginner friendly and great for people of all abilities, that you will reach for over and over again.” Scotty Unfamous
4. Lovehoney Mantric Pink Pebble Vibrator
“This Lovehoney vibrator is interestingly different to other toys. It’s made for external stimulation, it’s waterproof and the unique shape means it’s quite discreet as a sex toy for those who are worried about it being found. What I especially like about this toy is that it’s not really made for a specific kind of stimulation, which invites true creativity when it comes to pleasure. Its a great toy for grinding upon and can be a fun addition to self or partnered pleasured resources.” Jordan Dixon

“This toy gave me a multiple orgasm. LELO generally make amazing toys, so if you have the budget to splurge on a quality piece of erotic equipment, the SORAYA Wave is worth every penny.”
“This luxury rabbit vibe has the most unique clitoral stimulator settings I have ever experienced (it does a fantastic sporadic twirl), paired with a sensual ‘come hither’ g-spot stimulator that strokes you to a powerful blended orgasm. Also, it’s very aesthetically pleasing. This toy is in my top ten vibes of all time. I HIGHLY recommend it for intermediate to advanced toy users.” Scotty Unfamous
6. Lovehoney Finger Vibrator
“This is super cute. It’s made for internal stimulation however you can use it to stimulate wherever you want, there are no rules . I like this toy as it tries to target internal spots in the vaginal canal to stimulate certain spots. The toy’s curved shape means it can self hook and allows you to create traction in the vaginal canal to stimulate spots that you would otherwise use fingers for.”
“It’s not a floppy toy either, there’s a bit of resistance and it stays in place as you start to place pressure which intensifies the sensation. It’s also waterproof and great for water play.” Jordan Dixon
So, there you have it. These are the best sex toys on Amazon, which one will you be trying?

RANDY vegans are raving about Holland and Barrett’s new sex toy range that has been designed around the shape of vegetables.
The health and wellbeing retailer recently launched a range of vibrators replicating bananas, egg plants, carrots, corn on the cob and even a chilli.
The unique vegan-friendly toys have been an instant hit amongst vegans and cost £16.95 each.
Their Chill Pepper Bullet Vibrator has been described as: “Suitable for vegans.
“Waterproof for shower and bath play. Body-safe food-grade silicone.
“Let’s bring some heat to your sexual health…
“Curved at the tip and powered with seven settings this chilli will hit all the right places and meet your sexual needs.”
A yellow realistic corn on the cob has been described as: “Designed with ridges and edges, the corn gives you a new healthy experience of pleasure.
“Small and discrete so you never have to go without your new friend!”
And another one reads: “Go bananas!!! Get one of your five a day with our new banana vibrator.”
Happy customers have been raving about them online and on the retailer’s review section, with one buyer saying they had the best experience of their life.
One person, known as Belinda, said: “I purchased this spicy little number a few days ago and I have not been disappointed.
“I really like it hot between the sheets and Charlie the Chilli is really doing it for me.
“As a vegan, I applaud Holland and Barrett for finally bringing this range to the market.
“I’m off to have another go now.”
Another review read: “Powerful little bullet, lasted ages on one battery and is not as noisy as other makes, which is a real bonus.”
A third, from someone known as Karen, said: “At first I was a bit surprised at what I got as I was expecting a nice cob for dinner.
“I soon realised this was a whole other ball game, but being intuitive as I am I decided to make the most of this monster and I can honestly say it was the best experience of my life.
The toys are listed for just £16.95.
“Well done vegetable, definitely not suitable for a vegan if you know what I mean.”
Another shopper commented: ”I wasn’t sure what to expect. But this had me shuddering with excitement.
“Certainly brings a new meaning to dangling a carrot. The settings are clear, but I’m not sure if the eggplant would have been better.
“But wa wa whoha can’t wait to show my boyfriend.”
Social media users have also taken to Reddit to discuss the unique toys.
One said: “I’m tired of being indifferent to the suffering of our animal friends. I will be replacing my pork chop-shaped vibrator.”
Another wrote: “And I thought my mum was going in to buy calcium tablets.”
While one commented: “Vegan sex toys…no harm came to animals.”
The range has an “over 18s only” notification on them and have all been made from Body-safe food-grade silicone.

Winter can be a major bummer. Between the minimal daylight hours, the cold and the often-gray weather, it’s hard to get motivated to leave the house. Hard to go out with friends. Hard to get to the gym. Life gets boring! It’s no wonder so many of us wait for spring with bated breath to start living our lives again. And sometimes our sex lives feel like they need to thaw out too.
To get started, we put together some fun and exciting (but reasonable and attainable for people who aren’t double-jointed) sex positions. These positions are just new enough to keep things interesting without feeling like you’ve become a contortionist. Even if they don’t lead you to new heights of orgasm, you might get a few good laughs trying. Test them out, and good luck beating the winter blues.
Scissors
This position works well when both partners have a vagina or when one of them has a penis. One partner lies on their side while the other straddles the bottom leg. Great for rubbing clitorises together or for smaller controlled thrusts.
The Crab
The penetrating partner has their body below and the receiving partner is above. With the right angle, this can be great for G-spot stimulation — and also an intense arm and ab workout. Hey, a sexy workout keeps you warm on winter nights.
The Bounce
Swap a chair for an exercise ball and enjoy the extra thrust that comes with bounce. The receiver in this position will have better control. For extra intimacy, have the penetrating partner wrap their arms around the receiving partner.
Coital alignment technique
This position is designed to give clitoral stimulation during penetration. Start in the missionary position and then have the penetrating partner lower so that your chests are close together and slide their entire body toward the receiving partner’s head with his pelvis tilted down. The base of the penetrating partner’s penis should stimulate the receiving partner’s clitoris.
The Cuddle Squat
The penetrating partner sits slightly reclined with their legs out, and the receiving partner squats overtop, lifting their hips. It can be helpful for the penetrating partner to wrap their arms around the receiving partner for stability.
Pillow-Boosted Doggy
Let’s be real. Sometimes winter is an energy drain. This position — a modification on doggy — has the receiving partner’s hips lifted on pillow while the penetrating partner thrusts. For extra enjoyment, the receiving partner can keep their legs as close together as possible.
Sideways Missionary
Change things up and turn missionary on its side. The receiving partner can wrap their legs around the penetrating partner and aid in thrusts or just get their bodies even closer. You’ll be close enough that the body heat will keep you from getting any winter chills.
The Lazy Lay
If it’s a lazy winter day, try this low-effort position for both partners. The receiving partner lies on their back and puts their legs over the penetrating partner, who lies on their side. It feels great, allows ample access for clitoral stimulation, and you can lie down the whole time. Amazing.
Anal Cowgirl
If you want to try something new, this position can be used by partners of any sex. Just like Cowgirl, the penetrating partner lies down while the receiving partner slowly lowers themselves onto the penetrating partner. This is a good position if you’re looking to change up power dynamics or take anal at your own speed. As with all things anal, make sure to use plenty of lube.
Lend a Hand
This position doesn’t require any penetration and gives you a good cuddle while you’re at it. One partner gets into a bear-hug type position from behind and reaches their hand to stimulate the other partner. It’s a good time to explore each other’s bodies and be communicative about what does and doesn’t feel good.

OF made a very interesting decision od banning porn content on their site. Site which made most of their money on content like this decides to cut their main stream of income? Wonder what is the reason behind such a drastic decision. It is a shame that so many content creators will lost their income. Internet is full of sites where adult movies can be watched for free which means illegally in most of the occasions. OF changed that and allow performers to earn money for their work. It also shifted the balance. It was them who started to decide what contant they creating not companies or directors. Biggest question right now is, towards which site this migration be directed. Would it be one site or would it spread between few different ones. And fianl question, would that site be able to last longer then OF.
EDIT:
OnlyFans decided not to change their rules and allow adult content on their site. Question is, what’s behind that change? Was it just a PR stunt which is quite common opinion online in recent days or was it just pure calculation. OF realised that majority of their profit comes from adult content creators. Maybe they realised that keeping adult contect will loose few business partners but this loss won’t be as big as it would be after loosing creators
