Ella Paradis Releases Pandemic Lockdown Self-Pleasure Survey

MIAMI — A recent customer survey conducted by Ella Paradis examined the attitudes related to self-pleasure among adults one year into the pandemic and noted "an overwhelming majority" relied on pleasure devices.

A rep noted, of the 1,148 adults surveyed, "83.3% of respondents indicated they purchased a sex toy during quarantine, 46.5% noted they purchased more sex toys during quarantine than previously, 43.7% noted they masturbated more frequently than previously and 29.9% noted their sex lives suffered as a result of the pandemic."

Further, said the rep, 43.8% of participants :also noted they became more interested in self-pleasure during this time period."

"We've always acknowledged the connection between sexual wellness and mental confidence, which is why we do what we do. The results of this survey further prove the dependence we as humans have on a healthy relationship with ourselves,” Ella Paradis CEO Tino Dietrich said. “Seeing the increase in interest in sex toys as well as self-pleasure gives us hope the the stigmas associated with our industry will soon be a thing of the past.”
