It’s the same thing when they find phallic objects and call them “ritual objects” or “for sexual rituals”. Is it that difficult to perhaps assume they were likely used to get off ?
Personally, I think those are a kind of “kinkwashing” that goes on in museums. It might upset conservative donors if you straight up labeled objects as “Masturbation aid, 100 BCE” or “Sex toy, possibly used for pegging, 800 CE”.
