Sex toys made from latex or rubber can contain phthalates, these are chemicals that help to make a sex toy more flexible, especially beneficial in dildos and vibrators and any other sex toy that requires bending when in use.
Phthalates have been around and were introduced in many household products in the 1920`s and have been used in large quantities on a huge range of products ever since. Examples of where phthalates are currently used include nail polish, PVC products, paints, adhesives, hair spray and many beauty products. The safety concerns over Phthalates were raised by Greenpeace`s Dutch office who have called for the European Union to ban all sex toys that contain Phthalates, they have called for a ban despite not being able to produce firm evidence that they are un-safe. And in spite of the fact that millions of men and women have used sex toys containing Phthalates for more than 30 years without proof of harm being caused. The jury is most definitely out.
Thankfully in this modern day and age, people of the UK have a choice and have access to factual information so an informed choice can be made. The range of Phthalate free sex toys available includes sex toys for men and women, including realistic vaginas like the Cooch Loveclone realistic vagina, the Deluxe Instant Muff Portable Male Masturbator and for the ladies the Naked Seducer Waterproof Vibrator and the Silky Judder Realistic Dildo.
Your personal safety is of the utmost importance, you have a choice in using Phthalate Free Sex Toys or as an alternative continue using traditional rubber or latex sex toys or you could cover your dildo or vibrator in a condom before use if phthalates concern you.
