About Tenga...
Tenga was created in Japan when a man was frustrated with how the sex toy industry portrayed itself as a shameful and perverted. There were no sleek products for the natural act of masturbation. He wanted to create toys that are hygienic, safe and functional. Koichi Matsumoto wanted to bring products that fit in with everyday life. Products that are tools for self pleasure.
“Sex toys used to be underground. With underground products, you don’t know the company name or manufacturer. You don’t even know where they were made. There’s no contact information,” he muses. “In other words, there’s no responsibility for the product. Responsibility is important. We take responsibility for our statements. We live with responsibility for our words.”

There is something off putting for some when masturbating with a disconnected body part. Tenga moves away from replicated human genitalia as it can be seen as dehumanizing. All of their products are designed to be inconspicuous, elegant, sometimes even beautiful.
