Japanese adult industry responds to Ukrainian invasion, with vibrators

Make love, not war. It’s more than a slogan. It’s a cliché.

But it’s certainly a policy we embrace here at Tokyo Kinky.

The Japanese adult industry has responded to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia by doing what it does best: not with sanctions or public statements, but with a new release. Two new sex toy releases, to be exact.

The Action! for Peace Vibes are two vibrators in the blue-and-yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag. More than simply a visual show of support for the people of Ukraine, though, the manufacturer says it will give a portion of the proceeds from sales of the vibrators to humanitarian aid in the war-torn country.

Both toys are USB-powered bullet vibrators with seven types of vibration patterns and two different types of attachments.

The “yellow head” version turns your bullet vibe into a mini denma massager wand.

The “blue head” toy is even more adventurous with a beak-like tip to pinch and stimulate the nipples and clitoris.

A great way to celebrate pacifism? Or a gimmicky release in bad taste? The jury’s out for the moment.

The Japanese adult industry has a history of charity work, especially AIDS awareness campaigns. One of the most controversial efforts was the long-running ERO24TV telethon that allowed members of the public to squeeze porn stars’ breasts — all in the name of a good cause, naturally.
