A pop-up sex store in Cuba is pushing back against the Communist-run country’s ban on selling sex toys. The pop-up includes handcrafted dildos and other supposedly “taboo” sex toys. While Cubans pride themselves on being very sexually liberal, many are close-minded regarding sex toys, according to the sex toy pop-up’s artists.
The distribution of anything deemed obscene is banned in Cuba, and there are no sex shops or licenses available to sell sex toys, leaving Cubans with no other choice than to import toys in their suitcases and sell them in secret. For the pop-up, the artists created translucent “phallic sculptures” in an array of colors from pink to green, some containing wordplay on official Cuban slogans like “Until Victory, Always.” Scarce and expensive resources in Cuba meant they had to use entwined fish line for whips and resin for dildos. “We want to break the taboos,” said the artists. “In the rest of the world, this is normal now.”
