Brightly-coloured sex toys available on open display in Changi Airport duty-free shop & Watsons

With the Tenga sex toys no longer on display at Japanese discount store Don Don Donki, you can still find sex toys in the most innocuous and publicly-accessible places -- and we're not talking about sex shops -- in Singapore.

The airport, for instance:

These products were found at a duty-free shop in Changi Airport's Terminal 3 transit area.

As you can clearly see from the photo, shared with us by a contributor, the vibrators and clitoral massagers from Swedish brand Lelo occupied an entire display shelf, where shoppers — and, well, honestly anyone — can actually test the products out.

Available at Watsons

And believe it or not, vibrators and oral sex simulators are also freely available and openly displayed at personal health and lifestyle chain Watsons.

A range of sex toys called Smilemakers are on an exclusive sale arrangement with Watsons. Ranging in price from S$29.95 to S$64.95, the vibrators are brightly coloured and had peculiar names like "The Fireman" and "The Frenchman".

Here's what they look like:

As you can see, they could be touched and played with, and helpful price labels described exactly what each was designed for.

We understand that these products from Ramblin' Pte Ltd, a local company, have been on sale at Watsons for at least two years.

But what's curious is the fact that the toys are located on the second-lowest shelf at the family planning section, where items like condoms and pregnancy test kits can be found.

In other words, they would be at eye-level for shorter shoppers — children who might be accompanying their parents, for instance.

Full display shelf, beside children's health section

Smilemakers wasn't the only brand of adult toys we found at Watsons — we also came across an American brand of sex toys on sale there, which we understand went on sale earlier this year.

Watsons also stocks a wider variety of products from the brand, VēDO, including combination sets for couples.

Here's the entire shelf we found at the same store:

Prices for these, in case you're wondering, range from S$19.20 to S$64.99.

And by the way, we thought we'd just point out the fact that they were positioned right beside the children's health section:

Is it legal to sell sex toys in stores in Singapore?

The answer to that is, unfortunately, still vague.

According to Section 292 of the Penal Code, anyone who sells, rent or distribute anything deemed to be "obscene" can be sentenced to jail for three months, a fine, or both.

The term "obscene" in this case refers to anything that can "deprave and corrupt persons" who are likely to see or use the items.

"The word 'obscene', in relation to any thing or matter, means any thing or matter the effect of which is, if taken as a whole, such as to tend to deprave and corrupt persons who are likely, having regard to all relevant circumstances, to read, see or hear the matter contained or embodied in it."

However, the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) has set boundaries for sex shops, barring businesses whose primary purpose is to sell products related to sexual activity from situating themselves within or near residential areas, including private residential estates, HDB housing estates and town centres/ neighbourhoods.

But at the very least, you now know where to go to get gifts for the people on your naughty list this Christmas.
