"Pleasure toys" sold at library flea market -- on church lawn
<snip>

SPRING HILL — Risque bedroom products had organizers blushing at Saturday's Friends of Spring Hill Library flea market — which was held at a local church.

Among the dozens of booths set up on the lawn of Spring Hill Presbyterian Church was one vendor promoting personal pleasure toys and intimate products for women and couples. Most of the items are sold at Tupperware-like home parties and were not on display.

''I cannot believe it,'' said organizer Effie Heiss, who didn't learn of the booth until after the vendor had packed up and left for the day. ''I didn't get a chance to see it, but I don't know if I'd have known what it was if I had seen it.''

The booth, set up a stone's throw from the church doors, boasted ''toys for you,'' including lotions and a vibrating bath sponge.

12. In today's service at the Church of the Divine Orgasm. . .
. . . let us turn to the Book of Positions, Chapter 6, Verse 9. . . .

"And Hef did come down from the Mansion, and did distribute condoms and lube, and sayth unto the masses: Go thou, and get thy freak on. . . ."

9. Schtupper-ware?
That is hilarious. Not to mention a fabulous work-from-home idea, but only if you have to test the merchandise before you can sell it.

:evilgrin:

10. When I was growing up
there was one pharmacy in town which prominently displayed in their aisles a "stress relief massager" which consisted of very discreet packing basically showing a woman holding the thing against her back

Yes that is what that long cylindrical vibrating thing is for.... back massages.

15. I like the ones they used to sell at the novelty store at the malls.
The package showed a woman with a borderline ecstatic look on her face, holding the massager against her cheek. We used to joke about new studies proving there was a G-spot in the earlobe. That one was also called a 'personal massager' but I don't think Spencer Gifts really thought they were fooling anybody.

17. I had one of those, but I lost in a rubbish bin in an airport in
Australia

:P

Apparently after I left, it started humming and set off the alarm - how embarrassing
