Do you own a sex toy? And if so, would you admit it to your friends? Increasingly, the answer to both questions is yes.

Laurence Knight explores how this came about, speaking to industry pioneers such as Sam Roddick, Doc Johnson and LoveHoney. And he travels to China, where many of them are manufactured. \\nProduced and presented by Laurence Knight.
