The World's First Halal Online Sex Shop Is Everything You'd Imagine It To Be
As Muslims everywhere struggle to come to terms with the secular demands of modern lifestyles, entrepreneurs have been quick to spot new opportunities to make a legitimate buck in between uprisings and (s)explosions.
One enterprising Turk has recently opened what he claims is Turkey's first online sex shop for Muslims, selling everything from lubricants to herbal aphrodisiacs and offering advice on how to have halal sex.
Haluk Murat Demirel, 38, said he was inspired to launch the online shop by friends who wanted sex advice and products but found the content on other websites and in specialist stores too sexually explicit.
"Online sex shops usually have pornographic pictures, which makes Muslims uncomfortable. We don't sell vibrators for example, because they are not approved by Islam," says Demirel.
Sexual mores provoke frequent debates in the majority Muslim but constitutionally secular country. There are relatively few sex shops, even in major cities, although in parts of Istanbul those that do exist advertise themselves with neon signs.
Critics of Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan, whose roots are in Islamist politics, have often accused him of puritanical intrusiveness into private life, from his advice to women on the number of children they should have to his views on abortion.
Demirel says the website—which offers advice on which sexual practices are banned by Islam and which are not—has proved unexpectedly popular since its launching, clocking up to 33,000 visitors per day
