Harry Styles fans are convinced the star's brand Pleasing is launching a VERY naughty product after cryptic clip

Harry Styles fans are convinced they have cracked the code as to what his new product launch is. The One Direction star, 31, is set to release a new item for his accessory and fragrance brand at 11am on July 25. 'You've been so good at communicating what you want,' an email drop sent out to subscribers teased, as it revealed customers can purchase the new launch online or in person at 251 Elizabeth Street, NYC. And the brand has hinted at what the new product could be in a series of clips featuring telephones, people gasping and vibrating objects. Now, fans of the Watermelon Sugar hitmaker are convinced they have figured out exactly what Pleasing are launching - and it's raunchy. Reading between the lines, fans think Harry is launching a range of adult toys, including vibrators and lubricant. Commenting on Pleasing's Instagram, fans said: 'Harry styles adult toys before HS4? Bros priorities,'; 'Button, milk, gasp. he'll drop sexual wellness products. 18+ only,'; 'We about to get adult toys before HS4,'; 'Is this something sex related? Like sex toys or lubricants related? lol sorry,'; 'Adult toys before hs4 is kinda crazy guys,'; 'Instead of being in the studio we get s3x toys from harry... okay?'; 'I smell harry flavored lubricants hahahaha,'; 'S3x toys?'; 'Harry showing up just to advertise the vibrator,'; 'Pleasing vibrators here we come.' Meanwhile taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans added: 'No it's just too funny for me to think that harry styles will release sex toys and lubricants on the brand he founded... like "oh what does pleasing sell?" "oh you see we have nail polish, perfumes, apparel, some face/lip products, vibrators and dildos oh and of course lube" 'Can't believe harry styles started in a boyband and ended up selling vibrators. proud of his growth in every sense,'; 'Never did I think we'd be getting a Harry styles vibrator but here we are,'; 'Harry styles is releasing a vibrator and you expect me to move on with my day?!' 'You've been so good at communicating what you want,' an email drop sent out to subscribers teased, as it revealed customers can purchase the new launch online or in person at 251 Elizabeth Street, NYC Now, fans of the Watermelon Sugar hitmaker are convinced they have figured out exactly what Pleasing are launching - and it's raunchy Meanwhile taking to X, formerly Twitter, fans added: 'No it's just too funny for me to think that harry styles will release sex toys and lubricants' It comes after Harry partied into the early hours with pals at Glastonbury last month, where he was seen getting very close to 28-year-old producer Ella Kenny. In a video obtained by The Sun, the pair could be seen sharing an intimate kiss on the dance floor, sending Harry's impassioned fans wild. Bournemouth University graduate Ella put on a leggy display in a pair of tiny black short and a simple white button-up shirt as she wrapped an arm around friends Nia Archives and Jessica Skeete-Cross. DJ and singer-songwriter Nia is a prominent star on the drum'n'bass scene, having been nominated for a Brit Award and Mercury Prize and opened for Beyoncé during her 2023 Renaissance tour. While Jessica is a stylist for ES Magazine, who has worked with big names like Maya Jama, Robert Pattison, Letitia Wright, Cara Delevingne and in an interesting twist - Harry's ex-girlfriend, Taylor Russell. Taylor and Harry dated for 14 months, reportedly striking up their romance in March 2023, before their split in May last year. During their relationship, the actress appeared on the cover of ES Magazine in November 2023, which Jessica styled and proudly shared to her Instagram. Ella is a producer who has worked at a studio in London for around three years, producing 'crossplatform content' for businesses such as record companies and fashion brands. She has worked alongside Nia, as well as produced music videos for artists such as Rachel Chinouriri, and Slow Thai, as well as Anne-Marie and Aitch's huge hit PSYCHO. She and Harry already knew each other prior to the festival, but it remains unknown if their passionate exchange was a one-off. Reportedly, the Watermelon Sugar star was in the VIP section with a group of pals when Ella arrived and kissed him on the cheek multiple times, before he led her to the dance floor where they shared their very public smooch. Speaking about the kiss to The Sun, a source said: 'Harry and Ella had fun together at Glastonbury and shared a kiss on the dancefloor. 'They had a good time in the moment but it doesn't mean it will evolve into anything. They just got on and had a snog. 'But she seems like a normal, down-to-earth girl which is different from some of the big stars he's dated before.'

My Pleasure! From Taboo to Trend

Educational content and self-assessment tools are becoming increasingly important as well, because users today want to make informed decisions and feel more in control of their health journeys," Shailja Mittal, Founder, Rxmen You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Sex. Despite being the most populated country in the world, India, with 1.46 billion people, has largely shied away from discussions revolving around this three-letter word. However, things are changing for good. Films are often considered a reflection of society, and among the many subjects explored by the industry, sexual health and wellness have found their critical yet tricky representation in the form of Shubh Mangal Savdhan (Erectile Dysfunction), Vicky Donor (sperm donation), and Lust Stories (female desire). This slow yet steady shift has made sexual health and wellness shed its hush-hush image in the public while gaining traction in the maturing startup ecosystem in India. Sexual wellness, as a topic and a product, began picking up pace during the lockdown. At present, the global sexual wellness market size was valued at USD 20.6 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 32.5 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 4.7 per cent. Meanwhile, the domestic market was valued at USD 1,153.5 million in 2020 and is estimated to reach USD 2,095.4 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.8 per cent. According to the market research platform Tracxn, 18 startups are working in this space. Entrepreneur India looks at how these founders break taboos and enable people with science-led, inclusive, and tech-enabled solutions. The Un-Tabooing Sexual wellness is a holistic state of well-being that includes physical, emotional, mental, and social aspects of sexuality, focusing on health, pleasure, and satisfaction. Entering this segment can be purely due to market opportunity, but for Shailja Mittal, it hit close to home. "A close college friend of mine got divorced in 2021 because he was struggling with erectile dysfunction, and even after meeting multiple doctors, he couldn't find a solution. That incident stayed with me and pushed me to explore the industry in more depth," shared Mittal, founder, RxMen (formerly Qurex). A notable portion of the Indian population experienc es sexual concerns. Educational content and self-assessment tools are becoming increasingly important as well, because users today want to make informed decisions and feel more in control of their health journeys," Shailja Mittal, Founder, Rxmen. In North India alone, it was found that 81 per cent of men and 82 per cent of women perceived themselves to have at least one sexual disorder. These pa tients were reluctant to seek care due to social stigma and a lack of awareness. "Sexual health in India lacks structure, science, and empathy," said Pranay Jivrajka, founder and CEO, Allo Health. Founded in 2022, Allo has over 35 clinics across cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, and Hyderabad. The startup claims to have treated 200,000+ patients, boasting an 85 per cent improvement. "We treat sexual health like cardiology—with expertise, outcomes, and zero judg ment," adds Jivrajka. Allo offers treatments for Erectile Dysfunction, Premature Ejaculation, Vaginismus, Low Libido, Couple Sex Problems, Porn Addiction, and Delayed Ejaculation. For Vaibhav Garg, InYou Wellness was born from the belief that a healthy sexual life leads to a happier family life. "We uncovered a silent crisis— rising sexual health issues driven by stress, obesity, hormonal imbalances, and cardiovascular problems," he shares. Many don't understand that sexual health spans physical, emotional, and hormonal quadrants," Vaibhav Garg, Co-Founder And CSO, Inyou Wellness. Between 2012 and 2015, it was reported that 20-30 per cent of broken marriages in India were the result of dissatisfac tion with sexual life, impotency and infer tility. In 2025, people have become vocal about what they want, even sexually. Hence, giving rise to this industry, which is working towards sexual and eventual life satisfaction. After being in the men's wellness space for the past few years, Rajat Jadhav and Bold Care soon realised the need to shift gears and focus on women's sexual health with Bloom by Bold Care. "We wanted to close the biggest gap in the women's wellness space lack of targeted solutions," shared the CEO and co-founder. In 2023, Jadhav and Bold Care were joined by Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh as a co-owner. "Every product we've created is designed not just for general support, but to target specific phases and issues across the spectrum of sexual wellness for both men and women," notes Garg. The sexual wellness market in India has grown from approxi mately USD 453 million in 2015 to reach a figure between USD 2 billion and USD 2.5 bil lion by 2025 and beyond. Normalising Market Despite being a billion-dollar market, sexual wellness is still a subject people are hesitant to talk about. This is being dealt with by educational content and influencer collaborations. "Our marketing breaks taboos by using educational, inclusive content, safe spaces, and influencer voices that normalise conversations. We don't shock—we simplify, destigmatise, and hand-hold patients through their journey with trust at the core," says the Allo Health founder. We see strong momentum in pleasure and prevention-especially condoms, lubricants, and sprays-as awareness grows," Pranay Jivrajka, Founder & CEO, Allo Health. Social media and influencer marketing have become a critical part of these startups' market approach. Mittal notes that at RxMen, storytelling is a big part of the marketing strategy. "We don't take only the 'performance marketing' route; instead, we focus on building awareness through education, empathy, and hon est conversations," she says InYou Wellness and RxMen offer self-assessment tools to help one understand their sexual wellness and health via a unique score. "We deliver medically supported content that educates users on how sexual health can be impacted by lifestyle challenges and co-morbidities—ranging from stress and poor nutrition to cardiac and hormonal condi tions," notes Garg. Pills and products Ingestion of any food or sub stance is done after putting in a good amount of thought, and these pills and capsules for sexual well-being are no different. Having developed its products closely with doctors which meet global stan dards, Allo Health have partial vertical integration for quality control and works with lead ing manufacturers and labs for its private-label range, "From sourcing to testing, every product goes through rigorous evaluation to ensure it is dermatologically safe, non-irritating, and suited for Indian consumers." Quick fix While the consumers under stand the need to address such concerns, they are prone to expect immediate results and short-term solutions. "The idea of a natural, long lasting, holistic solution that restores intimacy is still new and underrepresented in mainstream conversations," quips Garg. Mittal and Rx Men are not looking to offer quick fixes. "Our treatment journeys are designed by top experts and are about 80 per cent structured and 20 per cent customised, depending on the root cause. So instead of masking the symptoms, we try to treat the issue from the root and give people a real shot at recovery," she shares. The startup claims to have a 96.02 per cent and a 92.17 per cent user improve ment in Erectile Dysfunction and Premature Ejaculation, respectively. Digital Disregard Instagram pulls up 376k posts with tags pertaining to sexual wellness. The interest in edu cating oneself on this subject is evident. However, digital hurdles persist. "Platforms like Amazon or Google restrict promotion using terms like 'erectile dysfunction' or 'li bido,' limiting reach," reveals Garg. Mittal concurs, "We're up against strict policies on plat forms like Google and Meta, which are the primary chan nels for awareness these days. These platforms often restrict or flag content around sexual wellness, so we have to con stantly think out of the box to reach the right audience and share our message with them in a way which is indirect." Privacy Reaching out for help in these matters can be uncomfort able for many due to privacy concerns. RxMen ensures that sensitive details like a person's name, address, or location aren't accessible to everyone on the team; only the treating doctor or logistics partner sees what's relevant to them. Market Opportunity Contrary to popular belief, sex toys and wellness products are gaining traction beyond tier-I cities. The market in tier-II and tier-III Indian cities is showing strong demand for products like sex toys, lubricants, and performance enhancers. "Geographically, we're densifying our pres ence in metro and tier-II cities through our clinic model," shares Jivrajka. MyMuse shares that 27 per cent of their customers come from tier-II and tier-III cities. While e-commerce and search engine giants are causing hindrances, quick commerce is quickly leverag ing the gap. In a post, Swiggy Instamart revealed that "1 in every 140 orders included a sexual wellness product." Anushka Gupta of MyMuse considers the integration of the products into quick com merce platforms like Blinkit, Zepto, and Swiggy Instamart a milestone. While Amazon considers self-care massagers under the health and personal care category, q-commerce platforms like Blinkit display it as a separate category, offer ing lubricants, adult games, and enhancers. Investor Potential The sexual wellness market has been gaining attention for a while, and investors are not privy to it. "The capital markets are taking notice. Sexual wellness startups globally raised over USD two billion between 2020 and 2023, and India is finally catching up," shares Ashish Bhatia, founder and CEO, India Accelerator. Earlier this year, Bold Care raised a Series A funding round led by Rainmatter, Mithun & Siddhartha Sacheti (founders of CaratLane), the Dhanani family of Sayaji Hotels, and the AVT Group. In March, Allo Health bagged pre-Series A led by Rainmatter. "Sexual health is a massive but underserved market in India," said Nithin Kamath, Founder and CEO of Zerodha and Rainmatter. "As the Indian startup ecosystem matures, we're seeing bold founders break taboos and build science-led, inclusive, and tech-enabled solutions— from sexual health diagnos tics and intimate hygiene to therapy and education. What was once a hushed topic is now a legitimate, scalable category… Investors are beginning to recognise that this sector delivers more than financial ROI—it delivers so cial relevance, cultural shift, and real impact," adds Bhatia, noting that the multi-stage, fund-led startup accelerator is actively looking to enter and invest in this space. Future Ahead Talking about growth plans and what sub-categories they are eyeing to focus on, Mittal shares, "We're seeing a lot of interest in supplements tai lored to sexual performance and overall vitality." Jivra jka and Mittal are optimistic about fertility as a budding category, with the former calling it a "high-potential cat egory where structured care is missing but demand is rising." Sex toys remain nascent but show promise, especially among urban women. Garg notes that while contraceptives continue to remain an important category, his and Inyou Wellness' next phase will focus on intimate hygiene, a closely linked sub-category to overall sexual well-being. "We're expand ing into adjacent wellness categories—pleasure, supple ments, and OTC," shares the Allo Health chief. India's relationship with sex is complicated, but these startups are rewriting the script. "This is not just a niche—it's a massive, under served opportunity at the in tersection of health, wellness, and cultural evolution. And the smartest bets are being placed right now," concludes Bhatia. By addressing areas of personal wellness, India's in timacy and pleasure-focused startups are proving that the segment is worthy of being backed by investors and customers.

Posts about women's health BLOCKED by Instagram – while men's are promoted, study finds

Women's health topics are more than three times more likely to be blocked on social media than men's, according to a study. Posts are less likely to be viewed or engaged with due to algorithms, but the opposite is true about men's health. 1 Influencer Aly Boghici [ allmumstalk ] and her husband Justin [ alldadstalk ] shared content about male and female health to see the reaction from followers. Aly shared content about menopause, pain during sex and vaginal dryness - these types of posts were viewed by 66 per cent fewer non-followers than her typical Instagram activity. By comparison, when Justin posted about erectile dysfunction, leaking after sex and testosterone imbalance, he only noticed a mild drop in non-follower views, by 16 per cent, compared to his normal content. It suggests women's health and sexual wellness content is being routinely restricted on social media platforms as outdated algorithms detect words like 'vagina' or 'period' and block non-followers from viewing. Engagement rates between posts were significantly different, with Aly receiving a massive drop in comments by 69 per cent, whereas Justin received an uptick by 76 per cent as both followers and non-followers expressed interest in men's health topics. Hygiene and health company Essity, which produces menstrual health brands Bodyform and Modibodi, commissioned the experiment. It is campaigning to end the practice of social media companies banning medically and anatomically correct terminology related to women's health. Aly Boghici said: "It is clear my content is being censored and I can see clearly that the censorship of women's health related content is an issue. 'I have identified these following topics results in my posts receiving less engagement: menstrual health, charities supporting menstrual health, sexual health or charities supporting these important conversations, and the list can get longer. Millions of women live life according to their menstrual cycle, study shows 'I might be reluctant to post about these important issues moving forward as the message doesn't seem to be supported unless more support from the algorithms will be given, and people to be given a chance to voice their personal experiences, otherwise we cannot make a change and support women going through different health scenarios… we cannot break taboos if we keep silent .' Additional posts during the experiment by Aly focussed on periods, heavy bleeding and endometriosis - which saw 25 per cent less views. Taboo topics such as thrush and discharge had 14 per cent less views than normal content. Justin posted about taboo topics such as pain in the testicles, weird discharge and thrush. It doesn't feel fair that one gender appears to be disproportionately censored when it comes to sharing information about health. Justin Boghici Influencer They saw a massive surge, with 34 per cent more non-followers viewing the content compared to his other activity. His posts illustrating learnings about penile, testicular and prostate cancers experienced an increase in non-follower views by four per cent. Justin Boghici said: 'After one week of comparing notes, I noticed no notable change in engagement on my posts on male health issues, if anything, they've actually increased, especially on the reel message. 'It was quite interesting to make this men's vs women's health comparison. 'It doesn't feel fair that one gender appears to be disproportionately censored when it comes to sharing information about health.' The experiment comes as research of 4,000 adults found 47 per cent of those who use social media feel it is an important platform to educate themselves about health and wellbeing. And 45 per cent don't believe any restrictions should be placed on posts containing the correct medical or anatomical words and phrases to describe the human body. Some 44 per cent think anyone should be able to publish content related to women's health, for example, menstrual health or breast cancer. Just under eight in 10 adults (77 per cent) said words like 'vagina' or 'periods' should not be restricted on social media when used in an educational context. Essity is working with campaign group CensHERship to raise awareness about the negative impact of women's health censorship on social media. Spokesperson Kate Prince said: 'Our Bodyform brand is regularly censored when it launches new campaigns on social media that are designed to improve education around menstrual health. 'Women and girls must be able to access information and advice about critical health topics on social media and they should be able to hear about and engage with the experiences of others. 'We can fully understand the need to monitor certain words and phrases, but when anatomically and medically correct language is censored then we think it's going too far. 'We're asking the social media giants to use their expertise and offer a solution that would help millions of women and girls gain access to important content and information.'

Normal Bestie Bundle review: Toys that know the right places

Product prices and offer details are not assured, and should be confirmed independently with the retailer. Learn more WARNING: ADULT CONTENT Normal was one of the first modern sex tech brands I became aware of — both as a sex writer and a sexual woman. Founded in 2021 by Lucy Wark and sexologist Georgia Grace, the Australian label entered the market with a clear mission: to make sexual wellness feel approachable, inclusive, and, frankly, a little less awkward. While I've tried a few of their toys before, I was surprised to realise I'd somehow missed their three bestsellers. Enter: the Besties Bundle. A cleverly curated trio featuring Quinn, Darcy, and Frankie — Normal's most-loved vibrators — the bundle is a brilliant way to explore a variety of sensations and styles without committing to just one. Think of it as a sampler box, but sexier. 'So many in our community are curious about what turns them on — and gets them off,' says founder Lucy Wark. 'From nipple and thigh play to clit, G-spot, vaginal and even A-spot stimulation, the Besties Bundle is your all-in-one way to explore it all. We've taken our most-loved vibes and paired them together so you can discover new sensations, experience blended orgasms, and enjoy more pleasure across more parts of your body.' So, I did what any curious (and professionally obligated) person would do — I took it for a spin. Here's how it went. WHAT'S IN THE BOX? The Besties Bundle includes three vibrators: Quinn: Suction vibrator simulating oral sex with gentle air pulses. Darcy: Double-ended vibrator for internal and external stimulation. Frankie: Compact bullet vibrator with focused vibrations. All three toys in the Besties Bundle are made from body-safe, non-reactive materials — free from any of the nasties like phthalates, PVC or latex — so you can relax and enjoy without worrying about what's going near (or inside) your body. They're USB rechargeable, with up to two hours of play per charge, which makes them pretty reliable as far as battery life goes. The whole kit comes in minimalist packaging and includes a cute little reusable canvas bag — discreet enough to stash in a drawer or overnight bag without a second thought. HOW WE TESTED THE NORMAL BESTIES BUNDLE Because each vibrator in the Besties Bundle is designed to meet a different kind of need, I tested them over a few weeks — reaching for each one as specific urges or moods naturally arose in everyday life. When it comes to reviewing toys like this, I try not to test everything all at once. Sometimes, the novelty or intensity of one toy can overshadow the others, and that's not exactly fair play. In this case, though, each toy is tailored to a distinct moment, environment, or kind of craving — whether it's a slow build, a quick release, or something a little more exploratory. I wanted to give each of them equal opportunity to blow my mind — or not. FIRST IMPRESSIONS The bundle arrives in discreet, eco-conscious packaging — a nod to Normal's commitment to both sustainability and your privacy. Inside, each toy comes with its own reusable canvas bag and a simple instruction card outlining how to charge, use, and care for it. My first impression? They're a great size. Each vibrator feels intuitive to hold — not too bulky, not too dainty — just compact enough to feel comfortable and controlled in your hand. The silicone has a satisfyingly soft, almost skin-like texture that adds to the overall sense of quality and ease. PUTTING THE PRODUCTS TO GOOD USE Quinn Quinn is a suction vibrator that uses gentle pulses of air around the clitoris to create a sensation that closely mimics oral sex. I've tried my fair share of toys in this category, and honestly, Quinn has quickly become one of my favourites. I tested it in the shower — it's safe for up to 10 minutes under running water — and was impressed by how well it performed in that setting. It's gentle, but don't let that fool you; it gets the job done. One of its standout features is the vibrating end opposite the suction. You can switch between the two, or use both in sequence, which allows you to build up slowly or extend the experience if you're not quite ready to finish. It feels designed for pleasure with intention — not just sensation. Darcy I don't usually like to call out favourites … but Darcy is hands-down my favourite in the bundle. It's just so versatile. You can explore G-spot stimulation with the bulb, use the long arm for a deeper, more full-bodied sensation, or treat either end like a wand to tease all your favourite erogenous zones. What I love most about Darcy is how much it offers without feeling overwhelming. It doesn't look intimidating or overly clinical, and it transitions beautifully between external and internal play without needing to switch toys. Size-wise, it's juuust right — the bulb end is perfect if you're craving something with a bit more impact, while the long arm offers a gentler, more sensual kind of penetration. Both ends vibrate too, so you can toggle between the two depending on what you're in the mood for (or have both going at once). I also really appreciate the shape of the long arm — it's subtly curved, which makes finding and stimulating the G-spot feel a lot more intuitive. As with any toy, lube is your best friend — but especially with something like Darcy, if you want to get the most out of both internal and external play. Frankie In my opinion, every girl needs a bullet vibrator in her arsenal — something small, discreet, and easy to take on the go, whether you're travelling or just sneaking in a little self-care between meetings. What I love most about Frankie is its size. It's compact enough to be portable, but not so small that it's awkward to hold or use. A lot of bullet vibrators either slip out of your grip or don't pack enough of a punch — but Frankie nails the balance. It's surprisingly powerful for its size, and the pointed tip is perfect for external or more targeted stimulation. It's the kind of toy that just gets the job done, without fuss. The Besties Bundle is priced at $300 AUD, offering a bundled saving compared to purchasing each device separately: Quinn ($180), Darcy ($180) and Frankie ($60). That's a saving of $120. VERDICT: IS THE BESTIE BUNDLE WORTH BUYING? Short answer? Absolutely. These are some of the best sex toys I've ever used — both in terms of design and performance. The Besties Bundle is a no-brainer if you're looking to refresh your collection with quality, reliable staples that cover the key pillars of vulva stimulation. It's also perfect if you're just starting out and want to experiment with different sensations to figure out what really works for you — without the overwhelm of navigating dozens of options. Price-wise, it's incredibly good value. Some competitor brands charge the same for one toy, and here you're getting three. They're not overly complicated or packed with gimmicks — and honestly, I think that's part of what makes them so great. They're simple, smart, and designed with .
