A gay thing? Really? When I think Fleshlight, I'd say the demographic is more for straight men than gay men. After all, the most famous Fleshlight and most of the Fleshlight designs are shaped like vaginas. They DO have some butt Fleshlights, though, and some mouths, too, though the mouths appear feminine, in my opinion. I recently found a Fleshlight Liberator piece, though, that could hold two Fleshlights on either side and featured two men using it and kissing so I guess they sometimes target gay men, as well. I'd say overall, they target straight men (take, for example, the line of Fleshlights modeled after female pornstars) but they also include gay men. Fleshlights are for men! Just masturbate and enjoy! Lol.

Heck, they even occasionally target women, what with the monster-themed dildos to go along with their monster-themed Fleshlights.

I never put that kind of spin on it... I just think of use by men. Whatever their sexual orientation, there is a plastic hole to fit.

I don't know... from what I've read the men say, it's a "replacement" for their wives/girlfriends. Not something that makes me ecstatic about them for sure! My partner doesn't and would never use them. He's not into that sort of thing at all! I don't necessarily think the consumers are gays or straights. Probably a good mix of all. Who knows? I'm just happy my partner don't use em. Then I'd be missing out! lol

I always thought their demographic was largely straight men.

I mean, their website homepage is definitely aimed at people who like vaginas, or at least fake ones.

Their Fleshjack line is the one that's marketed to gay men. It's a lot of the same content, just with slight differences and marketing. *shrug*

I think the public perception at large is "lonely straight guys", be it true or not.

I think the demographic is men - they just market more to straight men because there are more straight men around.

For those that have a penis. I am not sure it matters what their orientation is, just that they can stick their cock into a orifice for pleasure.

I agree..don't think of it as a gay thing at all...more geared towards straight men, if nothing else due to sheer volume/population. I think its neutral.

I think it's geared more towards straight guys, but they do have a few geared towards gay guys as well.

I thought since they're vaginas the targeted audience is people that like them.
