PIC: A masturbation booth has been erected in New York

A sex toy company has erected what it calls a 'GuyFi' booth on a New York street.

The booth is apparently a place for men to "relieve stress" during the day and it just as creepy as it sounds. The company, Hot Octopuss, launched the booth following a survey by Time Out, in which a remarkable 39% of New Yorkers admitted to 'self-soothing' in the workplace to alleviate stress. https://twitter.com/vanik84/status/688379688717299713 While we're not sure what's relaxing about w*nking on the side of a busy street, Hot Octopuss co-founder Adam Lewis said: "There's no denying that working a nine-to-five job can be stressful on both your mind and body, especially in a non-stop city like Manhattan. It's really important for guys to look after themselves so that they can stay healthy and focus properly on the task in hand. "We're told time and time again how beneficial it is to have a break away from your desk. At Hot Octopuss we are all about looking for new solutions to improve everyday life and we feel we've done just that with the new GuyFi booth. "We hope the city's men enjoy using the space we've created in whatever way they want. It's completely free of charge… all that we ask is they thank us when they get their promotion!"
