Florida Leads With 3 of Top 10 Sex-Toy Buying Cities

MIAMI—It’s a fact that some of this country’s weirdest news comes from Florida, but as it turns out, many of the Sunshine State’s residents are not shy about using sex toys to fulfill their sexual fantasies. Men’s Health and Women’s Health earlier this year published an article “The 10 Cities That Buy The Most Sex Toys,” and Florida’s Gainesville, Orlando and Miami made the cut at 9, 2 and 1 respectively. The magazines complied its list from sales data from Amazon, which in turn culled its data from cities with more than 100,000 residents. A quick examination of the list shows many of the cities are also homes to major colleges and universities, including the University of Florida, University of Michigan, Morehouse College and University of California. The data reflected the online retailer’s sales of “sexual wellness products,” which includes lubricants, vibrators, bondage gear, fetish jewelry, condoms and more. The Top 10 are as follows: 10. Pittsburgh, Pa. 9. Gainesville, Fla. 8. Atlanta, Ga. 7. Ann Arbor, Mich. 6. Berkeley, Calif. 5. Seattle, Wash. 4. Cambridge, Mass. 3. Alexandria, Va. 2. Orlando, Fla. 1. Miami, Fla.
