Condom Sales are Surging. Evidently people evidently not only want to have sex again, they want to have SAFE sex
Condom sales have been in a slump during the pandemic as people sheltered at home and put their sex life on hold. But now, as more Americans are getting vaccinated and Covid-19 safety restrictions are loosening, condom makers are no longer having trouble getting their sales up .
“no trouble getting their sales up” – the newswriter should be shot.

Sex Toy Company Receives Award From Queen For ‘Outstanding Continuous Growth’
British sex toy company Lovehoney has received a royal seal of approval.
The adult retailer this week was honored with The Queen’s Award for Enterprise “for outstanding continuous growth in overseas sales over the last six years,” according to a press release on its website .
The accolade, announced by the official journal of record, The London Gazette , allows the company in Bath, southwest England, to fly The Queen’s Awards flag at their office and use its emblem on marketing and packaging materials for five years. Lovehoney also won the award in 2016 .
“We are thrilled to have received official recognition from the Queen,” Debbie Bond, Lovehoney’s chief commercial officer, said in a statement. “Her Majesty has been a wonderful supporter of Lovehoney as we have grown into being the world’s leading sexual wellness brand.”
You can’t blame the writers for “outstanding continuous growth”. Maybe they should just shoot the people responsible for giving out The Queen’s Award.
Forty two views and no replies? Maybe this will lube the rails.
The horrible, cynical, snarky bit of me thinks of things like this -
“Finally, thanks to [vaccination/getting rid of COVID restrictions/etc] I can get out of the house and sleeping with my wife/husband, and go out and get a decent lay! Better make sure I have some fresh protection.”
There are plenty of unattached people whose sex lives have been on hold. Now, with vaccinations, it’s “Free at last. Free at last. Thank God almighty, we are free at last.”
