Just so you know (from The Sun):
SEX toys could make you seriously ill, a study claims. Research by Greenpeace Netherlands has found that 7 out of 8 sex toys contained high levels of chemicals linked to hormone and reproductive disturbances - which means they could stop women having children. Apparently ‘phthalates’, which are used to soften plastics, accounted for between a quarter and a half of the offending items, including dildos and vibrators. The substances do not easily biodegrade and can be dangerous - even in small amounts. Lab rodents who were exposed to high levels of phthalates reportedly suffered damage to the liver, kidneys, lungs and developing testes.
