Although somewhat still a taboo, there has probably not been a single person who hasn’t considered giving sex toys a try. Raise your hand if you too have a favorite sex toy somewhere  hidden somehwere private, but easily accessible. If you owe any sex toys, you hopefully already know how to clean them properly. But if you’re just considering getting one, you may still be wondering what’s the best way to do it. That’s why we’ve decided to pay more attention to this very important topic and share some tips that will not only help you keep your sex toys clean, but also help you ensure you stay healthy and happy using them.

The importance of cleaning sex toys
Playing with sex toys can be lots of fun. But you need to make sure you clean them properly before and after each use to ensure that there are no potential issues caused by unclean sex toys that could hinder your overall experience. And if you don’t already own a sex toy but you’d really want to get your hands on some of the best ones, check out  Sinful for some ideas and inspiration.

  • Improper cleaning and storage of sex toys can lead to some serious health issues
  • From a health point of view, you also need to clean the sex products before using them every time to avoid contact with dirt, bacteria, and the possible spreading of various infections.
  • You can also increase your risk of getting in contact with sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or other infections if your sex toys are not cleaned or stored properly. Remember that germs can develop anywhere, so make sure you reduce the risk of contracting anything nasty by leaning your toys once you’re done playing.

When is the right time to clean your sex toys?
Since sex toys are usually very personal, many people don’t commonly discuss their use with their doctor. That is, they’re not usually the main “suspect” when things happen to go wrong, health-wise.  But the fact of the matter is that poorly kempt sex toys may cause more problems than you could imagine. So, as we’ve said previously, make sure you give them a proper clean before and after each use. Remember, if you’ve used it or you intend on using it, it is always the right time to wash it. So, don’t be lazy but take proactive care of your health by cleaning your sex toys on a regular basis and ensuring that they’re always properly stored.

A survey carried out by Megafon for TV2 has found that 71 percent of parents have handed over children to daycare in spite of them being sick.

Moreover, 21 percent of those surveyed admitted to medicating their kids with paracetamol, such as Panodil, before sending them to school.

The FOLA parents’ organisation is shocked by the findings.

“I think it is absolutely crazy. It simply cannot be that a child goes to school sick and plays with lots of other children. Then we are faced with the fact that they will infect the whole institution,” said FOLA chair Signe Nielsen.

Pill pushers
At the Børnehuset daycare institution in Silkeborg a meeting was called where parents were implored not to bring their sick children to school.

At Børnehuset there are fears that parents prefer to pack their kids off with a pill without informing teachers.

“We occasionally have children who that they have had a pill for breakfast,” said headteacher Susanne Bødker. “You might think that it is a Panodil more than a vitamin pill, if it is a child who has just been sick, for example.”

Parents sick and tired
Parents, when confronted, often cite pressure at work as a reason for not being able to stay at home with their children.

Many declare that they simply cannot take another day off, as they are afraid of being fired.

Allan Randrup Thomsen, a professor of virology at KU, has heavily criticised the parents’ actions, describing the current situation as a “vicious circle”.

“It promotes the spread of viruses, and it adds momentum to a cycle where parents are pressured by high levels of sick-leave. If they then choose to send the children to daycare while they are still recovering, they keep the epidemic going in daycares, and this in turn puts a greater burden on the parents.”
