Maybe more like shopping in the "wrong" country. Perhaps the "right" kind of stores are in country where the equivalent of a JCPenny's family clothing catalog in the mail includes a a page or two or more with (extra-)"marital aids".
This is not about "dual-use" items.

I always take off my shoes on flights. But I never have smelly feet. And I make sure I have fresh clean socks before a flight.
I wonder if airports should have a shower room where smelly passengers can be hosed off prison style before boarding.
Eating most hot foods smell in an airplane. Fried chicken is bad. Fried fish is the worst. Get a cold sandwich without vinegar and onions and I am cool with that.
I never use the plane toilet for #2. I cant sit on something i know thousands of people urinated on and didnt even clean. I just hold it in even on international flights. I have been fortunate as far as timing my bowel movements. But one time, when I had the urge, I was lucky enough to have it just as I landed in Tokyo earlier this year. With their automated toilets, you leave the clean toilet on a fresh note, if you know what i mean. My fussiness with toilets for #2 really is a killer for me when it comes to being a free spirit traveler.
I think international flights should have larger toilets and sacrifice one row of seating. Or at least have one premium toilet accessed by passengers who paid extra prior to boarding or even more extra after boarding. I would pay 30 bucks to have a clean dump and relax the rest of my flight which cost me 1000 or more.

Just recently on a flight from KUL to FCO, the toilet was out of use after the first 1/2 of flight.
The reason?
Certain cultures don't know how to use western toilets, but stand on them instead and let the mess end up all over the toilet and the toilet floor.
Toilet was out of order for the entire flight.

Being stuck beside a little boy who farted all the way from BNE to MLB while his parents sat on the other side of the plane, luckily was only a short flight. Then I got seated in front of an Indian man from KWI-AUH who slept across the seats and proceeded to fart, the flight attendants started to spray him with air freshener but he woke up and started yelling at them.

Lol - most of them (including walmart!) In the condom section, you find ones like this http://www.trojancondoms.com/Product...-massager.aspx and like this http://www.durex.com/en-ca/products/...sHomepage.aspx
To be honest, unless you were looking closely, you may not notice them, as they are similar size packs and labels as the condoms, but they are right there with the condoms and lube
I am now wondering how many of you are going to check out whether your grocery store has them next time you are in!
