Australia’s ‘sexiest’ suburbs have been unveiled! Are you living in one of them?

We’ve unearthed quite the titillating story for you today—one that will undoubtedly spark some chatter during your next afternoon tea.



In an unexpected twist to our daily news, we discovered the nation's most delightfully daring suburbs! That's right, the folks over at LoveHoney, a well-known sex toy retailer, have taken upon themselves the cheeky endeavour of creating a 'sex map' of Australia.

Now, the ‘sexiest suburbs’ don’t refer to areas brimming with strapping gentlemen or elegant ladies—no. It seems LoveHoney’s definition of 'sexiness' lies in the locals' enthusiasm for buying their merchandise.



Sitting at pole position is... Melbourne CBD! Of course, this news doesn't imply that Melbourne folks are 'sexier' in the traditional sense than the rest of us. But it suggests they're a bit more adventurous in certain indoor activities.

Melbourne CBD was not only declared the 'sexiest suburb in Australia,' but its residents also outspent any other Australian postcode on LoveHoney's products.

Who knew that the residents, well-known for their appreciation for coffee, culture and intriguing lanes of street art, were just as enthusiastic about their bedroom accessories?

Adding to this city’s ever-growing list of titles, Melbourne also managed to snatch the 'best-dressed city' label. This means they've been buying more tantalising, confidence-boosting lingerie (from LoveHoney) than any other location in Australia.



We also saw some unexpected contenders amongst the top ten, with two Canberra suburbs—Gungahlin and South Canberra—making the cut. It seems the nation's capital offers more than just exciting politics.

Sydney made a decent showing, too, with Bondi and Manly dubbed 'Sydney's sexiest places to live'. Sydney has great beaches, vibrant nightlife, and, apparently, residents with a penchant for experimenting with LoveHoney's offerings.

And let's offer a toast to Western Australia's tenacity, with four suburbs—Cockburn, Belmont, Swan, and Bunbury—making it to the top 10 list.



Now, every competition has its champions and its not-so-champion-like performers. Dubbed 'least sexy' were Epping in NSW, Unley in SA, and Beachmere in QLD.

The study also shed some light on specific products each city favoured the most. While we won’t be turning your afternoon tea into a risqué discussion, let’s just say that the residents of Sydney's Eastern Suburbs and the Northern Beaches sure know how to keep things intriguing!

And a little tip for our readers—amidst today's giggle-packed chatter, remember that embracing sexual well-being isn't just for the young. Just as we pay attention to our mental and physical health, our intimate health matters too. Whatever makes one feel more positive and empowered, it’s worth exploring.



LoveHoney’s annual 'sex map' study revealed quite an interesting trend. More than half of respondents had purchased a 'sexy' gift over the past year, and a vast majority of those folks are in relationships. A whopping 90% of participants expressed an interest in using adult toys with a partner. Well, who said growing older means slowing down?
