Huge demand drives women to become the main force

(1) Low cost and high profit

In the adult product market, low cost is one of the main reasons for high profits. Taking erotic lingerie as an example, a three-piece set of nurse, teacher, and policewoman COSPLAY costing over 500 yuan, has a purchase price of less than 100 yuan, yielding a profit of nearly 500%. As for the familiar condoms, the purchase price of one box is about 3-4 yuan, while the selling price can range from a bit lower than 10 yuan to several tens or even hundreds of yuan. Products like vibrators, airplane cups, and vibrating eggs have wholesale prices ranging from tens to over 100 yuan, but their retail prices can reach over 200-300 yuan. These figures fully demonstrate the huge gap between the purchase and selling prices of adult products, indicating considerable profit margins.

(2) Buyers are shy of bargaining, making transactions easier to close

Generally speaking, when purchasing adult products, buyers are mostly shy about bargaining. When buying adult products from adult product vending machines, there are no salespeople and the products are clearly priced, so buyers have no opportunity to bargain. When purchasing in stores, consumers also rarely have the habit of bargaining. They come in a hurry, ask the price, pay the money, and leave immediately. This phenomenon makes it easy for adult products to be sold at high prices, further increasing profits.

(III) Robust demand ensures stable profits

Currently, there is a severe imbalance in the male-female ratio in China, and the country is about to experience its fourth wave of singleness. The emergence of this "singleness wave" has led to many people's normal sexual needs going unmet, which has fueled the booming market for adult products. There are nearly 900 million people aged 15 to 59 in China, among whom over 200 million are single. The increase in the number of single people has led to a greater demand for adult products. Demand determines the market, and the market determines profit margins. It is precisely because of the huge demand that this industry has ultimately become a lucrative one.
