Last month, Dame, a female-founded sex toy company, announced it was suing the MTA (Metropolitan Transportation Authority) for censoring its campaign on NYC’s subway. On the subway today, you’ll probably spot a few ads promoting medication for erectile dysfunction and low male libidos from companies like Hims and Roman, but you won’t see sexual wellness ads targeted towards women. 

There’s a blatant double standard when it comes to sexual wellness products for women and men — and it’s not just on the subway. Both Facebook and Instagram are making it harder for companies like Dame to promote their products with their advertising policies.
