Our city is sexiest in Oz
Online store says town is number one
TOOWOOMBA is the sex-toy capital of Australia and still holds the title of the country’s sexiest town.
Online adult store Femplay said the Garden City came in at number one based on the number of adult toy sales.
Last year, Femplay announced Toowoomba was the sexiest city closely followed by Gladstone, Beenleigh, Ayr and Ipswich.
Now the second spot is awarded to Cairns followed by Sydney, Townsville, Melbourne and Brisbane.
“Toowoomba is still number one, can you believe it? A close second is Cairns which came in at number one a couple of years ago, seems it isn’t as hot as it used to be,” Femplay office manager Lea-Anne Trevillion said.
“Keep sexy Toowoomba. We love you.”
Clare Wilson from the AO Adult Store in Toowoomba said although she agreed residents bought a lot of toys for the bedroom, she was surprised the town was
number one.
“We get all different types of people through our doors who are interested in a range of products,” she said.
“I’m surprised we are the sexiest town though, but we do get a lot of orders for toys so I suppose it makes sense based on the sale numbers.”
The Chronicle shared the news with its Facebook followers and many found the humorous side to laying claim to the title.
The post gained 150 comments, with many
people tagging their friends.
Some people suggested Toowoomba was number one because there wasn’t anything else to do in town.
Levi Ravenswood said: “Perhaps it’s the bad weather, rain and nothing to do.”
Joe Fjin said: “I think it’s because there isn’t anything to do in town, people have to find ways to have fun.” But not everyone agreed. Paul McAuley said: “I visited Toowoomba last month. Great place, great
people but I don’t see sexy coming from Toowoomba.”
Joe Lowwen said: “I don’t think so, so many other sexier places out there.”
A few people also mentioned that only last week The Chronicle revealed a triple threat of chlamydia, gonorrhoea and syphilis was on the march across the region.
More than 620 local cases of sexually transmitted and blood-borne diseases reported to the state’s health bosses in the past seven
months.
NewsRegional analysis of Queensland Health statistics shows 475 new notifications of chlamydia across the Darling Downs health district since January 1.
In the same period, the region recorded 78 cases of gonorrhoea and 12 of syphilis.
Hepatitis C is the region’s most common blood-borne virus with 48 notifications.
There were also nine hep B transmissions and two HIV notifications.
