The ban is expected to go into effect at he end of next month.
Online retailer Etsy plans to prohibit the sale of most sex toys on its platform as well as content that depicts sex acts or genitalia as part of an effort to ensure content on the site is appropriate for a “wide audience.”
As Mashable reports, Etsy’s new Adult Nudity and Sexual Content Policy prohibits pornography, adult toys and sexual accessories, and sexual language. That means that Etsy won’t allow most sex-related products and language on its site, effective July 29.
In terms of adult toys and sexual accessories, the company is prohibiting the sale of toys that are meant to be inserted into the body, applied to the genitalia, or designed for genitals to be inserted into them.
