JAKARTA - The owner of a Kent sex shop said he felt he was partly responsible for the baby boom or the explosion in the birth rate due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.
Tracey Whitmore, who runs the Vibez Adult Boutique in Aylesford, UK, said there was a surge in sales of sex toys designed for couples and BDSM supplies when the second UK lockdown was announced.
Speaking to KentLive, he said: "People are getting more and more involved in sexual activities, because they want more entertainment than just Netflix."
"They are trying to keep themselves busy, there is an explosion in the birth rate of babies which is partly, I think, my responsibility," Tracey was quoted as saying by the Daily Star, Wednesday, December 16.
There is currently no evidence of a baby boom in the UK, but some predict maternity wards will be full next year.
Vibez, which is located in a large warehouse in an industrial area, sells everything from classy underwear to "Samantha" sex dolls for £ 4,000.
And he says his customers are eager to get some new equipment after being left saturated indoors for months.
"When we opened again after the first lockdown, everything went crazy. People have been locked up for too long," Tracey said.
"With the warning at the second lockdown, people know they have to prepare properly. Our sex kits are selling."
