Dustin Flynt Reflects on 25 Years in the Pleasure Industry

CINCINNATI — Dustin Flynt, president of sexual wellness brand Dusty's, is celebrating 25 years in the pleasure industry.

"Growing up with a front-row seat to his family's battle for free speech, Flynt continues his mission, working tirelessly to transform the pleasure products industry from an ill-conceived notion of obscenity to modern, mainstream acceptance," said a rep.

Dusty's currently operates two retail locations and an ecommerce sales and fulfillment outlet.

"Pleasure products used to be a strictly male-driven industry," Flynt said. "Now, in addition to addressing men's needs, the industry is recognizing the importance of women's needs and desires, acknowledging that women have the same rights as men to explore their sexual health and its impact on our physical, emotional and social well-being."

Flynt reflected on the evolution of the industry.

"I remember when my dad [Jimmy Flynt] first opened his stores," he said. "It was basically VHS tapes and T-shirts. No one knew about the benefits of kegel balls or dreamed of toys that could be controlled by an app for yourself or with a partner thousands of miles away. Thanks to technology, consumers are more educated about their sexual health than at any point in history."

He also discussed his retail operation's commitment to customer service.

"One of my favorite aspects of this business, aside from customer service, is meeting with our vendors and manufacturers," he continued. "They know our buying team is discerning about what we sell because our customers expect the best, whether they're shopping online or in our stores. When it comes to retail, success is in the details. Our staff is well-trained and able to answer all questions, whether it's a product recommendation for a couple new to adult toys or what type of lubricant won't irritate a sexually transmitted disease. We believe our commitment to quality customer service sets us apart from our competitors."
