Pleasure Gifting 101: Why It’s Time to Normalise Sexy Gifts

There’s a new kind of gifting trend shaking up Christmas, birthdays, hen’s nights, and “just because” surprises - and we’re so here for it.

Forget candles and bath bombs (cute, but predictable). The modern gift is something a little bolder, a little more personal, and a whole lot more fun: pleasure gifts.

Yep, we’re talking vibrators, kinky accessories, and everything in between - the kind of presents that say “I see you, I celebrate you, and I support your pleasure.”

It’s time to normalise sexy gifting - and here’s why it’s the best thing you’ll do for your relationships, your friends, and your own empowerment.

Pleasure Is the New Self-Care

We’ve all seen how self-care has evolved; it’s no longer just face masks and yoga mats (although we love those too). Pleasure is self-care.

When you gift someone a vibrator or a sexy accessory, you’re not being inappropriate; you’re permitting them to prioritise themselves. To explore. To feel good.

And honestly? There’s nothing more empowering than that.

At That’s The Spot, we believe pleasure should be as normalised as skincare. Because feeling good shouldn’t come with shame, it should come gift-wrapped.

Why Sexy Gifts Are Actually Super Thoughtful

Let’s clear something up: a pleasure gift isn’t crude; it’s considered.

Think about it. You’re not just giving someone “a thing” - you’re giving them confidence, comfort, curiosity, and a little spark of joy.

Whether it’s your bestie who just got out of a relationship, your partner who deserves some extra attention, or yourself (because self-gifting counts too), a sexy gift says:

• I know what makes you feel good.

• You deserve pleasure, no apologies.

• Let’s make this fun.

From playful beginner vibes to luxurious couples’ kits, at That's The Spot, we have something for every comfort level - and we’re all about making it fun, not awkward.

The Best Occasions to Give a Pleasure Gift

There’s never a bad time to celebrate someone’s sensuality, but here are a few moments where pleasure gifts absolutely shine:

• Birthdays: Because nothing says “happy birthday” like a new toy that hits all the right spots.

• Hen’s nights & bridal showers: A cheeky tradition that everyone secretly loves.

• Breakups & glow-up phases: The ultimate “you’ve got this” empowerment present.

• Anniversaries: Spice it up ... literally.

• Just because: No excuse needed. Pleasure doesn’t need a calendar date.

• Christmas: Forget the ghosts of Christmas past - a sex toy under the tree would make even Scrooge say “Ho-ho-ohhh!

How to Choose the Right Sexy Gift

Not sure where to start? Here’s a quick gifting guide from your pleasure pros at That’s The Spot:

• For beginners: Try something cute and unintimidating like Madame Mango in a "Me Time" Gift Bundle.
  

• For couples: Go for toys that bring connection, like Dos Amigos with a bottle of Lube and Toy Cleaner in our Lift Off Kit.

• For solo exploration: You can't go wrong with treating yourself to Lil Bud, our compact and cute suction Pleasure Pal.

Let’s Make Pleasure Gifting Normal

Normalising pleasure gifting isn’t just about being bold; it’s about changing the conversation.

Pleasure is natural. It’s healthy. It’s something worth celebrating, and when we treat it that way, we help break down stigma and open the door to more honest, confident conversations about sex and self-love.

So, whether you’re shopping for your BFF, your partner, or yourself, don’t overthink it. Wrap it up, write a cheeky note, and own your role as the best gift-giver in the group chat.

Because at That’s The Spot, we believe the best gifts don’t just sit on a shelf - they vibrate.
