经济阑珊讓愈来愈多的佳耦选择室内文娱勾當，导致性玩具的销量大增，現在英國四分之三的女性都具有性玩具。
振颤器和其他性玩具在全世界的年贩賣额暴涨到55亿英镑，并且估计在2020年将增长到400亿英镑，贩賣额直逼智妙手機。
但是，按照一家情趣用品網店的阐發数据，英國一个小镇的性玩具消费额是天下均匀程度的四倍——均匀每人在情趣用品上消费62便士。
英國汉普郡的弗里特在性玩具耗费上高居榜首。弗里特曾在哈利法克汐止汽車借款,斯银行的一项查询拜访中被评為英國最好栖身地。
按照《礼拜日泰晤士報》，性玩具消费排名第二的是牛津郡的迪考特市，厥后是萨里郡的戈达明市和汉普郡的贝辛斯托克市。
展开这一查询拜访的Lovehoney成人用品公司的配合業主尼尔•斯雷特福德说，名流们推心置腹评论辩论本身的性糊口是促使消费上涨的关头身分。斯雷特福德曩昔曾是明星凯莉•米洛的唱片建造人。
他说：“如今名流會做关于本身性糊口的大型访谈或评论辩论本身对性玩具的爱好，然后人们就會纷繁去采辦性玩具。
“这一切都從《愿望都會》起头，这部剧对女性而言极具解放意义，剧中夏洛特從纽约闻名的Pleasure Chest性用品商铺買了一个“野兔振颤器”后，就成為了一个本色上的豹隐者，这一情節对人们的影响特别大。
“忽然间民间女子再也不惧怕评论辩论性糊口和利用性玩具。
“名流对本身的性糊口变得加倍直言不讳，这很好。在曩昔十年里，人们的立场扭转了太多。
“如今像博姿、特易购和超等藥房如许的主流零售商也出售性玩具。
“走在藥房過道里，你會瞥见避孕套阁下放着振動阴茎环和枪弹头振颤器。”
英國第4频道在周二晚上有档節目叫“请给我更多的性爱，咱们是英國人”，这部关于性玩具網上零售商Lovehoney的长达一小时的记载片就反应了这一潮水。
