Fleshlight
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fleshlight (also marketed as the Fleshjack) is a line of male sex toys. The Fleshlight is designed and marketed by Interactive Life Forms (ILF).[1] The Fleshlight is named for the flesh-like material used in its inner sleeve, as well as the plastic case that houses the sleeve, which is fashioned to look like an oversized flashlight. The inner sleeve is available with vagina, anus, buttocks, mouth and a more discreet slot-shaped orifice (stealth). All inner sleeves also come in a choice of various colors and internal textures.
The Fleshlight was designed by former police officer (and SWAT team member) Steven A. Shubin who was suffering a period of forced abstinence while his wife was in a high-risk pregnancy.[2] He was granted a patent in 1998 for his invention, as a "device for discreet sperm collection".[3]
[edit] Recent products
The Fleshjack brand was launched in April 2007. Fleshjack is essentially the same as a Fleshlight, but specifically targeted toward the gay male demographic.[4]
A mold shaped from Spunky Productions' Paris was introduced into the Fleshlight Girls (FLG) line in September 2008 in an attempt to underscore their newest textured sleeve to be released, the "Lotus". Along with the Lotus, ILF launched a new website for the FLG page featuring a Member's Lounge for V.I.P. pictures and videos of all eight models featured on the site.[5]
